What games basically stuck with you?

What are some video games that have (among a number of things) left really deep lasting marks, impressions, and even impacts on you as well as deeply stuck with you and etched into your whole being (including your mind/psyche)?

There are several games that have done ALL OF THE ABOVE to me and they include:
Dead Space
Darksiders
Killer Instinct
Mega Man X
Bayonetta
Heavenly Sword
Mortal Kombat
House of the Dead
Soul Calibur
Tekken
Bulletstorm
Time Crisis
DOOM
Little Nightmares

Now out of all of these games I just listed/mentioned, the one game that currently left the BIGGEST mark, impression, and impact on as well as WHOLEHEARTEDLY stuck with me and etched into my ENTIRE being (including my mind/psyche) personally is Ori and the Blind Forest. Here are my own personal reasons on why that became the case for me now:

:grin: :grinning: :smile: :smiley: :blush: :heart_eyes: :sunglasses: :thumbsup:

-Mario Bros. 3
-Naruto Clash of Ninja Revolution 2
-Naruto Shippuden Clash of Ninja Revolution 3
-Super Street Fighter IV:3D Edition
-Super Street Fighter IV:Arcade Edition(Free with Gold and I eventually updated to Ultra)
-Killer Instinct
These 5 games basically brought me into fighting games. The Naruto games brought me into the genre. They felt like fast-paced Tekken games in a way. The Street Fighter 4 games brought me to the competitive side of fighting games. Killer Instinct was the first fighter I actually took seriously though. Mario Bros 3 on the Gameboy Advance was my first video game though

Honestly…pretty much everything I’ve ever played.

Seriously, the other day out of the blue I got a song from Legend of Legaia stuck in my head, and I haven’t even played it since it was first released on PlayStation around 2000-ish. And that game wouldn’t even go on a list of top games I would make.

Mario Kart (SNES)
StarFox (N64)
Killer Instinct (SNES)
F-Zero (SNES)
Super Sprint (NES)
Xcite Bike (NES)
Donkey Kong Kountry (SNES)

gears of war 3 (amazing)
dark souls (cause of dying all the time)
ori and the blind forest (emotion, gameplay, graphics.) (just stunning)
Doom (amazing good fun) (stands out from other shooters, kept what was the basic in doom 1, 2 and made it better)
