Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time (Nintendo 64, Wii Virtual Console)

Sure, it might be about 13 years old, but this game has stood the test of time as one of the best (if not THE best) game of all time. The one detail that put this game over the top, other than its amazing new features in an otherwise flat world, is that you must constantly change from a child to an adult and manipulate time travel to solve the puzzles, kill the monsters, and save the princess. Why spend spring break kicking butt online on your "Future-Box 720" when gamers can bust out the Nintendo 64 and replay this classic? Gamers who don't have a Nintendo 64 lying around their attic, this adventure game is available on the Wii Virtual Console for download.

Grand Theft Auto IV (Xbox 360, Playstation 3)

The Grand Theft Auto series is one of the best-selling series of all time, and for good reason. In this installment, gamers play as Niko Bellic, but they don't play these games for their stories. The open-world aspect of this game is what really draws in players. With the ability to shoot anyone, drive anywhere, and run from the cops all at the same time, this game is definitely something to spend some hours on during this break. (Gamers can play online with friends, too!)

Final Fantasy VII - (Playstation, Playstation Network)

The role-playing game redefined a genre and broke every record in the book. This 1997 gem is highly regarded as the best RPG of all time. Gamers play as Cloud alongside a party of friends. Together the characters fight to defeat Shinra, the mega corporation that is draining the planet of its natural resources. This game's unique combat system and amazing storyline will keep players glued to the controller for dozens of hours. Gamers who have already played it should go back and see if they can pick up those ultimate weapons they never managed to find.

Rockband - (Playstation 3, Xbox 360, Wii)

This is the music game to end all music games. Call buds over, grab the pizza, guitar, microphone, keyboard, and get jamming! This type of game is newer, but it is one multiplayer experience that never gets old. Gamers equip themselves and friends with plastic instruments ranging from a drum set to bass guitars, and rock out to old legends, or even some new groups who are making their own history.

Street Fighter - (Too many systems to count!)

It doesn't matter which one: Street Fighter 4, Super Street Fighter 2, Street Fighter X, just put one in, grab the arcade stick, and get to uppercutting! This Capcom classic has been introduced with amazing sequels time and time again, and has stood the test of time as one of the best fighting game series. Gamers wanting a new challenge, head on over to Arcade UFO (3101 Speedway), and test your skills with other ACC students.
