Mine has to be Dragon Quest: Rocket Slime, a DS spin off of the Dragon Quest series that sees you playing as a slime operating a tank and rescuing the people from your town. You run around the overworld, collecting items to use as ammunition and saving money to upgrade your tank. The art and music are just as great as you'd expect from the Dragon Quest series. It made fantastic use of the DS's dual screens. It's also written for a younger audience, so a lot of it is just really silly and fun! Try it out for sure, I'm so sad there's no sequel :(

Blood Wake on the original Xbox.

I was a kid visiting my friend’s house and we went over to his neighbor’s house and started playing on this new video game console I never heard of. He pulled up this game that was boats battling one another on the waters and it was so damn cool. My grandmother coincidentally bought my brother and I an Xbox shortly thereafter and it was one of the first games I bought used from EB Games. That storytelling was something else. Not state of the art, but just so cool being drawings and the world setting was amazing, being ancient but with modern and some futuristic/magical weapons too.

I still play it sometimes on an emulator. Just sad it never gets talked about or ever got a sequel or remaster, not even some backwards compatibility love :/
