If you could only re-experience from new one game (like total immersion, wide-eyed wonder-at-the-majesty-of-it-all re-experience) and had yet to pick a console (Xbox versus PlayStation), what game on which console and why? (and feel free to remark on ideal controllers, add-ons, etc.)

I was hoping Starfield might be that kind of galvanizing experience, but the reviews are pretty underwhelming. So now casting about for the real deal.

I would have to say Elden Ring. Just walking out to see limgrave and all of it's glory and the pure joy of a non linear souls like with exploration I've never experienced before made this a top 5 best game ever.

I played it on PlayStation 4 and quite honestly it felt great with the trackpad and the placement of the sticks where I could really feel responsive with my movement in PVP.

Playing new game is fun but man I would pay to have a brain injury to forget everything about Elden Ring just to experience it for the first time.
