Most Intelligent game

[ryai458]

I have to go with bioshock never played either system shocks so i couldnt compare them

 

[Quistnix]

Jagged Alliance 2 on hard had both pretty smart opponents and took quite some brainpower to complete. Psychonauts was quite brainy too.

I'm sure the original System Shock would have had a lot of depth too if only I could make it work on Vista.

Have you tried the System Shock Portable Project [http://www.strangebedfellows.de/index.php/topic,211.0.html]? Runs on XP & Vista without much problems (if you read the documentation)

 

[RebelRising]

Half-Life 2 or, in terms of gameplay, Total War.

 

[Abedeus]

Sudoku

This, probably.

Tetris is only reflexes + good sight.

Cheers mate, you're a legend.

 

[Clirck]

Tetris, sudoku, chess and all kind of not so computerish games.
Portal wasn't hard it was rather fun.

 

[Fuhjem]

Staring Contest

 

[Cpt_Oblivious]

Chess

/thread

But if you mean a PC game, I'd say it has to be one of those hardcore strategies for 40 something historicans like Hearts of Iron.

You can get Chess on PC. It comes as standard with Vista or Windows 7 too.

You can get naked women on PC, but that doesn't make them a PC application

Touche.

Gears of War or the Resident Evil series. Anyone who disagrees is not 1337.

Tetris..That's the best game ever made, in every respect. In my opinion.

 

[super_smash_jesus]

Zack and Wiki - some levels are freaking mind boggling how they have to be completed.

World of Goo - need to be an architect to fully understand what structures need to be solid and stay up.

 

[SamuelT]

I have to say Rome: Total War.

I haven't played many 'intelligent' games, that's why I read books. Or write them.

But Total War is effing precise-management on too many places. Sometimes it was too much.

 

[WrongSprite]

All of you are wrong


Anyone played dwarf fortress?

 

[Blank Verse]

This isn't the most advanced game, but Rainbow 6: Vegas 2 requires thought.

Board games? Chess or Chinese Checkers.

 

[WrongSprite]

You are all wrong.

Anyone played dwarf fortress?

 

[Uncle Colin]

Well, I'd say Silent Hill and Metal Gear Solid, those games have crazy make you think stories up the ass.

 

[Apathetic Flamingo]

Now you are thinking with portal...

 

[short_name111]

if its board game: go (AKA baduk)http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Go_(board_game)
if its a video game: Mist

 

[D_987]

Gears of War or the Resident Evil series. Anyone who disagrees is not 1337.

I want to be 1337!

Um...Halo?

 

[LeonLethality]

SO3 in terms of story in terms of gameplay... final fantasy 4 no overpowered limit breaks, magic takes time to charge AND mp isnt all that expendable

 

[Fightgarr]

For its politics I would say Final Fantasy Tactics.
In terms of destroying your brain with illogical logic I'd say one of the greats of adventure games (Myst, Longest Journey, Grim Fandango etc, etc.)
In terms of humor and innovative concepts then look to Schafer.
Clever game mechanics I have to say something like Portal or maybe Okami.
For intelligent game design I'd say Shadow of the Colossus just in terms of being concise and well-designed.
In terms of intelligence required of a player to play then I'm going to be lost because I don't play enough strategy to make a valid decision.
