Grand Theft Auto VI is almost here, but with the Ultimate Edition coming in at $99.99, it got me thinking...

What if you spent that same $100 on some of the greatest games ever made instead?

In this episode of Millennial Button Mashers, I'm revisiting seven classic games that still hold up incredibly well in 2026. Whether you're trying to stretch your gaming budget, revisit an old favorite, or finally experience a game you've always heard about, these are titles that are absolutely worth your time.

šŸŽ® Featured Games:• Assassin's Creed II• Call of Duty: Black Ops• Red Dead Redemption• Jak II• Kingdom Hearts• Uncharted 2: Among Thieves• Grand Theft Auto V

We'll talk about what made each of these games so special, why they still hold up today, and why sometimes the best value in gaming isn't the newest release—it's the classic you've been meaning to replay.
