I'm curious what you guys have to say about this. Are there any games you consider perfect? Can a game even be perfect?

My example of a perfect game is always Portal 1. Portal 2 has more going on, but in 1 there just isn't anything to shave off. From start to end, there is nothing I'd change about the game. It's short, infinitely replayable, great pacing. I like Portal 2 a lot in concept, in concept it should be a perfect sequel, but it just doesn't keep the extreme tightness of the original game.

You are right about Link’s Awakening. I did play the new version for switch and enjoyed that quite a bit. Mind you I did find some of the puzzles obscure and hard to get so I used a guid a couple of times. Im not sure about Four Swords ? Wasnt that the multiplayer one ? Im not sure how that one plays. Never looked deeper into it. With all that said I still think Link to the past just felt larger. A bit like the 2d version of a large open world game if that makes sense.

Four Swords is designed for multiplayer but can be played single player. But aesthetically it is extremely like LttP.
