Hopefully everyone has played a game that when you experience any particular part about the game or just the product as a whole you think to yourself, “Wow, that game really does (x-feature) really well.” If you haven’t then I suggest you should just play every game you can get your hands on and embark on a quest of game discovery.

My point is that this presentation of something so wonderful is usually a rare experience. So let us take a wonderful journey through some of games I feel truly stand above the rest in one form or the other.
