Do you question its placing at the top of our own, personal best game list? Perhaps you have your own additions to these 11? If so, let us know in the comments. And if you haven’t played the game, pick it up from the Xbox Store right now. But writing this list has reminded us just how rewarding it would be to give it another ride. That’s because it demands so much of us, and we often feel like we need to be in the right mood. We often don’t feel like we have the energy to play it again.

Simmons – just see Terence Fletcher in Whiplash – and you can see a little bit of that character come through in Cave Johnson. “I’m the man who’s gonna burn your house down – with lemons!”. But later, as death takes hold of him, he goes on a rant, demanding that life takes the lemons back. “When life gives you lemons, make lemonade”, he says, as his body slowly dies from inhaling moon dust. The pinnacle of the Cave Johnsonisms is the lemon rant. Simmons gives Cave Johnson presence, as he acts like the disappointed dad over Aperture’s many, many failings.

Few people could have captured the robot’s turn-on-a-penny character pivots, from buffoonery, to sarcasm to pure evil. Sure, he was just about stretching his long legs over the Atlantic, and was beginning to get American recognition, but he wasn’t what you’d call a name. He’d written The Office and Extras but barely appeared in them, had a semi-successful stand-up career and a role in the film Hall Pass.
