Also, it also got me into indie/freeware games. Even though I played it last year for the first time, it really changed games for me, forever. Also, Brawl changed my life just because of all the damn fun I've had in that game for so long. And I've only had the game for two years.

I was six at the time, so I didn't really get the ending the first time and I had to use a walkthrough for the last three dungeons, but it was still incredible. When I picked it up again after a few years, I couldn't believe how much of it I still remembered. Now that I understood the ending, I cried like a baby the whole way. Also the whole thing was a giant nostalgia bomb from start to amazing finish. This is what launched me into a love affair with the Zelda series; to this day, it remains my favorite of all game series. Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney: Trials and Tribulations. This game as spawned an obsession that has persisted for over three years now. The ending never fails to make me cry at least two separate times, and hardly a day goes by without me thinking about it. It got me even more hooked on the series than I already was, and gave me a new favorite DS game. It goes with me everywhere now. Metroid (NES). Made me realize that not all classic games are all they are cracked up to be. I had heard such good things about the game, so I got it off the Wii Shop Channel. It SUCKED. Horribly. Now, I try to play demos before I buy whenever possible, and I don't just buy games based on "classic" status anymore.

ChuChu Posts: 40 Group: ChuChu Member #13,056 Joined: July 25, 2010	Unfortunately I don't seem to remember what my first game was, but it most certainly wasn't the most influential, whatever it was. I think the first game to change my life was Mother 3. It wasn't just a game, Mother 3 was art. It was a beautiful piece of art, and it made me cry. It was the first game to succeed in doing so for me. In my many, many years of gaming, nothing has ever affected me as much as Mother 3.

It made me cry at the end and, as you said, the art of it was beautiful. The last battle was heartbreaking and it felt so wrong, but you had to do it... When I finished this game, I was going through a really tough time with my depression that I had been going through for the longest time. I finished this game and it made me cry, but also made me realize how fragile life was and how we should live our lives helping others and standing alongside them. I had a project to do, which was to write a musical score, an original piece, and this game was my motivation for writing it. It became an 11 minute concert band piece, based around a story I had created, that was inspired by Mother 3. I probably sound like a cheesy nerd right now, but that game is beautiful.
