Basically, the title speaks for the thread. If you could have the memories of one game taken away, (removing all spoilers, and even trailers if you really want to) so you could play it again, and experience the highs, lows, shocks and funny moments from gaming's finest, which game would it be?
I'd really be stuck between Portal 2 and Silent Hill 2. Both 2's, huh? (Coincidence, or is there something about sequels?)
Portal 2 has really become an average game for me, because 5 playthroughs later, the dialogue isn't funny when you mouth it word for word, and know everything coming. I'd love to meet GLaDOS again, play the puzzles and work all of them out. Not to forget - the breathtaking ending. I'm not going to lie, (and I hope I'm not alone here) my jaw hit the floor when I shot that portal. Everything after that was simply my absolute favourite moments in gaming. Losing Wheatley, turrets singing, (along with the animal king) and ending with the companion cube. I was smiling so much my face hurt. (Literally, no hyperbole there!)
But then there's Silent Hill 2, much contrasting with Portal 2. I'd love the traverse across the dark streets, be terrified again, and witness the frankly epic revelation at the end. At that point, all of the game came together. All of the locations, characters and monsters had meaning - it was like being hit over the head with a truncheon of truth! I'd love to explore Silent Hill 2 with the intrigue I had that first time!
Well, that was a rant-and-a-half! Well, forum, your turn? What game would you choose?
(PS: The entire MGS series was almost here as well, but it's not really a single game, so I didn't include it!)
