*swoons whenever someone mentions Vagrant Story*
Even though the design of that Zelda-style "endless labyrinth" was annoying, I almost didn't mind because it was so, so beautiful.
I really need to play through VS again.
Vagrant Story is indeed beautiful. Like Metroid and PSO, I love the whole enclosed-space dungeon thing. Although in real life, I would die from claustrophobia.
Ahh... this thread reminds me of my two Christmas games. Basically, whenever Christmas time starts coming around I always get the biggest urge to play two games: Parasite Eve and Shenmue.
Only this year I get to follow up my run through Shenmue with its fantastic sequel.
Final Fantasy VII's Icicle Lodge and surrounding areas (the snowboarding, Gaia's Cliff) takes it for me.
SaGa Frontier II had a similar area to icicle lodge and an ice mountain. A shame this game is nearly unplayable, it has some of the best areas.
Ristar's snow stages are the best for 2D games. It even has a friggin' snowball fight. How cool is that.
Banjo-Kazooie's snow stage (Freezeasy Peak?) was really fun.
I'm all about Strider's snow level... the real Strider, not that NES imposter. ;)
Ice Cap Zone.
Ice Cap Zone in Sonic 3 and the snow level in Ristar (even though it frequently crashes for me).
The cool snow levels in Blacthorne comes to mind.Also the ice areas in Maximo.
F-Zero had some cool levels with ice in them. That count?
