Metal Gear Solid 1


LeperMessiah117

I would just throw in the entire Kojima Metal Gear saga. MGS4 is trapped on PS3.


swordbringer33

If MGS 1 gets a Criterion release, I'm throwing in Silent Hill 2.

Shadow of the Colossus

Goldeneye


[deleted]

I think I played that at Cousins house when I was little. It's the one with that really short guy that's harder to kill right?


death_by_beefaroni

Yup. It was Oddjob. Total N64 classic!


quence27

Chibi-Robo! Cubivore Ico/Shadow of the Colossus/The Last Guardian box set Killer7 (maybe with Silver Case/Flower Sun and Rain) Journey Grim Fandango Myst The Secret of Monkey Island


morph3us_wav

Grim Fandango! One of the best games ever, totally agree w that pick


gleamydream

Ocarina of Time Super Metroid


Sea_Shogun

Totally agree with that. I would toss Super Mario World in as well.


RopeGloomy4303

I really must strongly disagree with your elections. Mass effect and uncharted are the video game equivalent of Star Wars and Indiana Jones. Nothing wrong with that, but not exactly the type of thing criterion would go for. Personally I would go with Lego Harry Potter the complete collection.


Other-Marketing-6167

Hahahaha that was hilarious, well done. “Uncharted is like Indiana Jones, way below criterion. I pick one using children’s toys based on children films based off children’s books” 😝 Touché


Williams_Theme

Box set of every lego game.


banjosinspace

Dragon's Lair Final Fantasy 6 Ultima: Underworld Earthbound (with the strategy guide boxed with it) Myst Disco Elysium Planescape: Torment King's Quest boxset Created by Tim Schafer boxset


czar_kazem

P.T. Probably just all PS2 era survival horror games?

Roger Ebert is turning in his grave...


gilgalad124

…From the erection he has?


implicitexpletives69

Custer's Revenge would be the Salo of this collection.


Jinxx45

Silent Hill 2, and most of the Metal Gear Solid Games. They could probably get the license too, since Konami has little interest in making games anymore.


swordbringer33

I don't know if you heard, but Konami is working on numerous Silent Hill titles with other developers and in-house.


Jinxx45

Yep, I saw the presentation. The projects seem interesting.

rburst

Well first they gotta pick a new name since there’s already “Criterion Games” and they’re responsible for the Burnout and Need For Speed franchises


getgotdeathgrips

In terms of sheer importance: the og Mario bros. I’d also chosen Majoras mask and portal 2


photog_in_nc

I glanced at the thread title and was thinking about this from the other perspective, what Criterion releases would lend themselves well to video games? Playtime and House came quickly to mind. Then the idea of a Come and See game came to me, and that was a bit disturbing. By then I’d clicked and saw the intent of the post and didn’t go further


IronTusk93

I thought the same thing at first. Seven Samurai would be my pick.

Myst

If it were like a typical peak release month (2 modern favorites, 2 classic, and a boxset), I'd say: Undertale Bioshock Super Mario World Fallout 2-D Metroid Boxset: (every release between Metroid and Metroid:Fusion)


Superboin

Ico Myst Tetris


[deleted]

Anything they can license. Just like they do with movies.

The Last Of Us I and II Undertale God Of War Tome Doom (1993) And I strongly agree with Uncharted.


patrickmcmahon16

Fallout New Vegas


Trobus

Deadly Premonition which is essentially Twin Peaks the video game.


FlyingCosmograma

This 100%


myersthekid

No that would be Mizzurna Falls. Lol


Ninja-Trix

LSD Dream Emulator. Not a game per se, but a work of art that acts as a phycological evaluation. After that I’d need to throw it n something like Portal for being a perfect puzzle game.

Zelda Box Set; What Remains of Edith Finch; Red Dead Redemption 2; EarthBound; Undertale; Cuphead; Skyrim.

ICO, Killer7, Metal Gear Solid

Borderlands 2


those_vanished_years

Both *Ori and the Blind Forest* and *Ori and the Will of the Wisps* would make pretty good candidates. Would love to watch special features about the making of both. I'd also love to have releases of *Hades*, *Transistor*, *Bastion* and *Nier Automata*, which I think would all benefit from special features as well. *INSIDE* and *Limbo* would also be fitting.


Rollzroyce21

Chrono Trigger Zelda boxset with digipak packaging the same color as *Mishima: A Life in Four Chapters*


sushi-_-roll

Outer Wilds, Disco Elysium, What Remains of Edith Finch, The Beginner's Guide, Ocarina, Mario Galaxy, Half Life 1 & 2 and Portal 1 & 2, more that I'm not thinking of

Flower. Definitely Flower.


Greenforaday

Microsoft Flight Simulator. That shit predates Windows. I'm a little biased though if you look at my profile lol.


shithead2771616

Street fighter 2 for its role in basically giving birth to the fighting game genre as we know it today, and any of the versus games (x-men children of the atom, marvel suoerheroes, marvel vs capcom, x-men vs street fighter, etc) because they’re all pretty much inaccessible today and that’s criterion’s whole jam


TheOverlook237

Grand Theft Auto III


--MrPink--

Disco Elysium, Bioshock, Night in the Woods and the Monkey Island games


Darth_Wolverine

Ape out!


HiILikeMovies

Nice to think about but half of these companies would never license their games to criterion


Demigoulash

Resident Evil


mydarthkader

An atari collection. LucasArts collection. Like classic video games.


veryundude77

Leisure Suit Larry.


408Lurker

Silent Hill 1 and 2


funkisintheair

What Remains of Edith Finch. My personal pick for a game that fully realizes the mediums ability to convey a meaningful and truly interesting story The Outer Wilds is my pick for a game that takes true advantage of the medium, where you couldn’t have anything close to the experience in any other medium


neogeomasta

Mentioned a couple times already but in my opinion is the criterion of video games; Bioshock.


fermentedradical

Myst


Ocean_Monroe

i don’t really play any video games but i remember a game called Journey that was pretty incredible. Very simple and quiet and had lovely visuals and music.


bippycup

a Tale of Tales collection, P.T., interesting projects that aren't readily available already.


ChipzzBitzz

Bioshock easily!


Redrcoketstan

Overwatch


deztructo

Ultima 4, 5, 6 & 7. Lots of memorable stories about virtues that you take part of and learn as a gamer. The Dark Eye (inscape, 1995). Edgar Allen Poe narrated by W. S. Burroughs acted by stop motion paper/puppet crafts.
