In talking about The Strong | National Museum of Play<\/a> setting up the World Video Game Hall of Fame<\/a>, we decided to come up with our own initial class. So here is Gaming Uncensored’s Most Influential Games:<\/h3>\n

 <\/p>\n

\n

Pong<\/strong><\/h3>\n

\"Pong\"<\/a>
\nPong is arguably what started this whole video gaming thing. Any Hall of Fame would be lacking without this title. And have you played Pong lately? It’s still fun!<\/p>\n

Ocarina of Time<\/strong><\/h3>\n

\"ocarinaoftime\"<\/a>
\nThe Zelda series has been massively influential, but Ocarina of Time stands out as the title that affected gaming the most. It was a massive RPG when it came out and ushered in a new philosophy about 3D game design.<\/p>\n

Super Mario Bros<\/strong><\/h3>\n

\"mario-bros-fondos-de-pantalla-del-aniversario-super-460228\"<\/a>
\nIt was the original console platformer featuring that lovable plumber. It helped save the gaming industry and propelled console gaming to a long and prosperous future.<\/p>\n

Final Fantasy 7<\/strong><\/h3>\n

\"900132-final_fantasy_vii_20080430043856786\"<\/a>
\nUniversally considered one of the best RPGs in gaming history, FF7 brought a new level of story telling and cinematic presentation to video games. It truly felt ahead of its time.<\/p>\n

Resident Evil<\/strong><\/h3>\n

\"resident-evil-logo-chris-jill-big\"<\/a>
\nWho would have thought video games could be truly be scary. Resident Evil proved that video games could be dark, menacing, and truly frightening.<\/p>\n

Goldeneye<\/strong><\/h3>\n

\"maxresdefault\"<\/a>
\nIf you love multiplayer FPS games, thank Goldeneye. It was a game that brought people together for the purpose of shooting each other in the head. Unless you were Oddjob. Then you shot people in the belly button.<\/p>\n

Grand Theft Auto 3<\/strong><\/h3>\n

\"unnamed\"<\/a>
\nResident Evil proved games could be scary, but GTA 3 proved that they could be truly dark. Dark, but ridiculously fun. It set the groundwork for the plethora of sandbox titles that followed.<\/p>\n

Doom<\/strong><\/h3>\n

\"Doom\"<\/a>
\nDoom was the game you mom didn’t want you to play, but you did anyway when she wasn’t around. It was gory and violent, and people called it evil. It paved the way for video games to become more mature and adult oriented.<\/p>\n

Metal Gear Solid<\/strong><\/h3>\n

\"mgs-1\"<\/a>
\nMetal Gear Solid is a game where the goal isn’t to kill everyone. You are rewarded for critical thinking and stealth. It proves that games can have deep gameplay mechanics while bending in your mind at the same time.<\/p>\n

Tetris<\/strong><\/h3>\n

\"Tetris-1\"<\/a>
\nYou’ve played it. And so has your mom. And probably your grandma. And now you play Candy Crush or Angry Birds. Tetris was the original puzzler.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
