I have played a few hundred hours of XCOM 2 on my treadmill. But I’ll play anything turn based that I can use a controller with. Steam controller takes care of the ones that need a mouse.

Balatro since it’s not realtime

Balatro.

Sounds like the Fire Emblem games would be perfect for this!

Agreed! There are several good ones on 3DS.

Advance Wars is also a great option - you can play a couple of them on 3DS with back-compatibility. Or, of the pocket can play GBA, there’s those.

And there are some PC games out there (although much more recent than 2005) that are in similar genres, like WarGroove or Dark Deity.

Slay the Spire

This and Balatro (and probably many rogue-lite deckbuilders I haven’t tried) are perfect compulsive time killers. Even though they’re newer, I would say they deserve serious consideration.

And Monster Train

And Dicey Dungeons

I would imagine any turn based game would work. I can’t stop playing Slay the Spire but there’s a bunch of options.

Resident Evil on a treadmill isn’t strenuous?! Mad lad territory.

I love a simple but satisfying puzzle game like Peggle, Nubbys Number Factory, Hexic, Lumines etc

“List all notable video game characters”

Oh cmon

Might as well ask someone to list the top songs of every year since the 80’s.

Edit nvm it’s not even characters, just games.

Pong is from like 1972.

As in history, all of them
As in art?
Blasphemous.
La puta madre que belleza de juego.

Everything 1Upsmanship puts on their “Celestial Hard Drive”.

Or, Minecraft.

NFL 2K5. It would be a somber, warmly-lit memorial, a pedestal bearing a single copy of the (Xbox version of) the game, with a spotlight shining down on it from above as it rotated. An eternal flame, possibly several, burn nearby. The walls would be digital, montages of all the memories. There would be mournful orchestral music playing, heavy on the clarinets and oboes.

And a screen where it plays YouTubers comparing it to every version of Madden for a decade-plus after. Eventually finding Madden to look better, but always finding Madden lacking in features and presentation.

ivanafterall, 4 miesiące temu

100% guarantee there are probably still YouTubers doing that in 2025. And you might be surprised how good it can look upscaled to 4K, if you haven’t tried it.

Didn’t even know that was a thing; that’s how long it’s been since I looked at it. Thanks!

jpreston2005, 4 miesiące temu do games w what video game deserves to be in a museum?

Shadow of the Colossus is the first that comes to mind. I’d probably toss in Final Fantasy VII, Zelda: Ocarina of Time, and DOTA 2 because I’m addicted to it

This is a more complex question than just “what is your favorite video game,” or “what games do you consider works of art?”

If I’m putting a game in a museum, it’s because there’s something about it that warrants preservation on a greater level than other games. To that end, my candidates are

• Pong (1972)

The first commercially successful video game.

• Tetris (1985)

Arguably the most influential game of all time

• Rollercoaster Tycoon (1999)

Handcrafted in assembly, serves as a lesson both in optimization and harnessing the players’ penchant for finding intrinsic value in simplistic game mechanics

Edit: I just realized this comment looks like an infernal machine wrote it. I want to make it clear that I’m a human, with skin and blood and stuff

These three plus Doom and Shadow of the Colossus are what was I thinking. Maybe Minecraft too.
