Assuming the equipment was also saved so you could still play the games, and every game in existence you don’t mention gets permanently destroyed, and no new games are ever to be made.

Inspired by a video by OutsideXbox from a few years ago, I thought it would be a fun idea to see what this community would choose. You can choose to be selfish and pick games you personally want to always play, or try to figure out what games would be best chosen for humanity to save for whatever reason. I’d also love to hear why you chose your games. Do they have a special meaning to you? I want to hear your stories.

    Baldur’s gate 3, tiny Tina’s wonderlands, ff7, annnnd I’m not sure. The fourth and fifth slots are harder.

    I would say pacman, but even if you gave me the arcade game for free, I don’t think I could play it worth a damn now. Same with centipede (they were my favorites back in the day, but pacman I was good at).

    The original Mario Kart could be in there. And I can’t pretend that need for speed carbon couldn’t compete for a spot either. I think I’d take Kart over Carbon though.

    Yeah, fuck it, pacman and Mario kart. Those are the last two spots.

    No! Wait!

    Neverwinter, the mmorpg. Fuck mariokart, I’d take that one, assuming I could either have ai teammates that didn’t suck, or could just keep a server for it running without cost/effort. Loved that game. Technically still love it, but when I stopped playing for a while, I got power crept and didn’t want to play ptw style like it turned into. But my haste cleric? Fuck yeah!
