LlamaPockets and LaughingMan have a sit down to each trade war stories with five games that have had the most positive or profound effect on their lives. Whether it was a game that changed the landscape of gaming, a game that shattered their minds, or a game that gave them inspiration to pursue life-long goals, we give our top 10 games that changed our lives. Most of the games are fairly popular, and come as no surprise, as they’re well established in the gaming cultural zeitgeist and have had similar affects on millions of gamers world-wide. However, the reasons why these games have had such an impact on them individually may leave you wondering which games left a permanent impression on you?

Thanks largely to other YouTube gaming personalities, we’ve seen numerous videos and lists of bad video games. And while several of the games on our own list of Guilty Pleasure Video Games make repeat appearances on those “worst video games of all time” videos and lists, LaughingMan and LlamaPockets still have lots of fun with them. Whether it’s nostalgia goggles, or the games have been patched into playability, or the “professional game journalists” are talking out of the wrong hole, we still love them…

Sort of.
Kind of?

Maybe not… But we certainly still play them.

In the wake of the cancellation of the 2020 E3 convention and the Tokyo Game Show, LaughingMan and LlamaPockets are watching Geoff Keighley’s Summer Game Fest digital convention. The creator of the Video Game Awards is putting on a great show, with more long-form discussions that they both appreciate and enjoy. After major players like Nintendo and Sony have pulled out of E3, with Nintendo long holding its own digital Tree House event, are digital conventions like the Summer Game Fest the future of game conventions? While the content is certainly more prone to longer, more in-depth looks at new games and technology (Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 1 and 2 Remaster, Unreal Engine 5), it could be more stale and less “meme-able” than its live, more disaster-proned predecessors.
