The Top 10 Best Masks in Video Games

Grab It Magazine:

"With The Legend of Zelda: Majora’s Mask recently remastered for the Nintendo 3DS, we’ve been spending a lot of time pretending to be someone, or something, else with the help of a vast selection of useful and unusual masks. Throughout video game history, we’ve been using masks to conceal our identities, to obtain mystical powers, and sometimes for the sheer comedic effect.

In video games, masks often transcend their façade and become the Swiss army knife of the gaming universe. Here at Grab It, we thought it was timely to celebrate these mysterious accessories by ranking our top ten video game masks."

Sweet list. I haven't gotten Majora's yet, but I'm keen to play. Wahoo for Big Face.

Haha, I know. It was a tough choice but I decided to cut comic book characters.

Awesome list. Gonna have to give Abe's New 'n Tasty remaster a go, loved it back in the day on PSone but just downloaded it to PS4 for this month's PS+ stuff. Will be interesting to see how it stacks up after all these years.

I've been playing it this morning and it definitely holds up.

I’d have taken a few of those out. Prefer Sonic over Sonic 2. Outrun should be in there. Maybe even Pong as millions of people had fun with that even if it was repetitive. Final Fight pipped any Streets of Rage game, although Streets of Rage had the better soundtrack. Too many to list l guess. To me, retro gaming is the 1980s, maybe going into early 1990s.

Agree that the generational gap is too broad to really make a strong list. Need to tighten the years a bit. Hard to compare Pac Man with N64 games.
