Honorable Mentions:

MGS3? And? Don't mention Twin Snakes, that was a butchery. Good game only if you don't think of it as MGS at times.

Grand Theft Auto 4/5. Vice City & Liberty City Duo. San Andreas.
Red Dead Redemption.
MGS4/MGS Peace Walker/MGS5.
Max Payne 3.

I'm really having a hard time thinking of one (I play all the consoles, but most franchises I play, have games on Nintendo consoles), but i would say...:

  • kingdom hearts birth by sleep (my favorite so far)
  • final fantasy type 0
  • dj max saga (now mobile)
