4. Shadow of the Collosus. You could probably fit the dialogue in that game on a single sheet of paper but the game itself tells such a deep and emotional tale that it still stands as one of my favorite games of all time. The gameplay perfectly reflects the theme.

5. Dwarf Fortress, because it is literally in an art museum, The Museum of Modern Art.

6. The door. I show those people the fucking door. They can just get out of my life.

7. Paper Mario: The Thousand Year Door has some of the most aesthetically beautiful levels that I've ever seen. And I didn't even play that game until 2-3 years ago so the detail still held up like 10+ years later.

8. The Witcher 3 comes to mind. The scenery in the Far Cry games is always pretty amazing.
