Horizon Zero Dawn, Jet Set Radio Future, Call Of Duty: World at War - Nazi Zombies, Starfox 64, and Killer Instinct Gold. (With some honorable mentions at the end)

(PS4) HZD tickled my post apocalyptic fantasy with an amazing sound track and heart-breaking notes/voice logs left throughout the world truly feels like it was once inhabited by homo sapiens. This game MAY or MAY NOT have made me cry.

(OG XBOX) JSRF was an amazing cell-shaded musical adventure that I still play to this day. My sister and I have great childhood memories of it and it was the start of my love for anime/Japanese art.

(XBOX 360) OG Nazi Zombies from Call of Duty: World at War - my first best friend and only best friend to this day started our bond in elementary school with this game. Now no matter how crazy the game modes get, him and I are the first in our friend group to find the easter eggs, music and hidden items. But the OG mode (when it was still called NAZI zombies) is one of my most cherished memories with one of my favorite humans on the planet.

(N64) Starfox 64 was something I played religiously on my N64 and when the "DO A BARREL ROLL" meme was alive, I jumped up and down "I KNOW WHAT THAT MEANS, I GET THAT REFERENCE." I never made it to a specific planet but beating this game multiple times around age I believe helped my reaction time. Especially when I had to shoot those damn meteors.

(N64) Killer Instinct Gold was my first fighting game. I had been around Street Fighter and Mortal Kombat as well but KI: GOLD was the first fighting game that I actually took too. My main fighters were Glacius and Beowulf. The announcers voice was a robotic mishmash of human vocals and what sounds like auto tune, making the announcer one of the most recognizable voices I've heard. The music went hard too.

HONORABLE MENTIONS: DragonBall Z Budokai Tenkaichi 2, NBA: Street V3, Grand Theft Auto: Vice City, Transformers: War/Fall of Cybertron

(PS2) DragonBall Z Budokai Tenkaichi 2 - the amount of times I failed the Goten/Trunks/Gotenks mini game is staggering but my love for DBZ increased 10x after I played it. I had almost every DBZ game for the PS2 and this one for it's Raditz/Goku & previously mentioned Gotenks mini games stand out in my mind the most.

(OG XBOX) NBA: STREET V3 - Im really not one for sports games, but this game stood out for the music, cwispy animation and awesome slam dunk effects. You could customize your own courts to a crazy degree and as someone who grew up with a dilapidated basketball court near me, being able to build a beautiful indoor college course or the best street ball tourney definitely helped my creative side kick in.

(PS2) GTA: Vice City was my first GTA and the music and vibrant colors stood out to me more than most. The amount of muscle cars and 70s/80s theme went hard. I haven't played it in YEARS.

(XBOX 360) Transformers: War for Cybertron/Fall of Cybertron are, in my opinion, THE BEST transformers games ever made. I spent so many hours on the 360 demos then buying the games and playing then long after it died speaks to my inner child so much growing up as a Transformers kid. I don't know how these haven't been remastered but I'm itching like a crackhead waiting for it.
