I’m not sure how big the budgets were 20ish years ago, but these 2 for me:

• the Royal Tenenbaums
• Sideways

Both are very well reviewed by the public/reviewers and I cannot fathom why.

• Kevin Spencer
• Bromwell High

+1 on the Max Payne mention…great game!

Came out near the time of my favorite PC game, Unreal Tournament.

As far as arcade games, I’d say maybe Rygar or Dragon’s Lair…but those are so old (like I am) that I might not be remembering them so well?
