Gravity Bone
Please skip to 03:30
Gravity Bone is a peculiar game, to say the least, with its charming, LEGO-esque visuals, but it is a really fun game to play through. When I thought of great chase sequences in a game, this chase sequence popped into my mind. It has the player running through rooftops into air-ducts into underground train stations, dodging trains and diving into huge ducts, chasing after a blocky (yes, blocky) person. The game may not be remembered by many as time goes on, in fact some people may not even know it exists, but this chase sequence is one of the best I have played in a game.
Uncharted 2: Among Thieves
Uncharted 2 has some of the best chase sequences in any game, short as they might be, and the sequence in the snow-capped hills has to be the best one. it isn’t really a chase, but then again, chasing people in moving trucks has to be some kind of a chase. The sequence has the player jumping from moving truck to moving truck, shooting and kicking bad guys’ asses. There will be several moments when you are about to fall off, when you’re hanging on to a truck for dear like and shooting at a thousand bad guys in all directions at the same time. It’s a really exciting, really thrilling part of the game, to say the least.
Need for Speed: Hot Pursuit
I know it’s kind of unfair for me to list a game that’s basically nothing but a collection of chase sequences in a best chases list, but I can’t help it. Need for Speed: Hot Pursuit has awesome chases, some of the best you will ever see in any racing game. The thrill that we get while chasing several illegal street racers at once, deploying road blocks, spike strips and the like all the while, is hard to forget, especially with the stylish, Burnout-style finishing crashes that we deal to the bad guys. Do a favour to yourself, and play this game. Please.
