So yeah this is a hackneyed premise of a thread, but I'm just interested enough in my own list of my 10 favorite games that I thought I'd share it with you guys and get feedback on yours. So here goes:

1. Super Mario Bros. 3 - Well, duh.
2. Knights Of The Old Republic - I didn't play Baldur's Gate so this pretty much introduced me to BioWare. And uh, Star Wars for that matter. So, yeah.
3. Mass Effect - More sci-fi RPG stuff, and this was all new and reading the codex makes me giddy.
4. Final Fight - yes I am a neanderthal I like walking down streets and punching punks and eating hamburgers out of trash cans
5. Pokemon Gold/Silver/Crystal - still the best pokemon games
6. Final Fantasy 9 - still the best FF game
7. Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas - still the best GTA game. Grove Street! And that soundtrack.
8. Def Jam: Fight For NY - This is really the culmination of every one of those AKI N64 wrestling games. So much fun. And Henry Rollins runs the gym!
9. Portal - The only first person anything that doesn't give me a headache. Plus it is hells of clever and funny.
10. Spider-Man 2 - This one's not fair, because I don't really like the game so much as swinging around the city. Still, it's Spider-Man, and it's awesome.

so yeah those are mine what are yours

    Halo 1 is still my favorite game of all time. It may not even have been that good but playing that game with my friends every day were some of the most memorable times of my life.

    It's weird, at least to me, to try and quantify enjoyment in a list form. For example, number 8 changed three times!

    I can't really number them or really recall games that I'd say are my favorites like that. I might think "oh hey that game I loved that" but that's really it

    other than Mega Man X which is my favorite game

    also Rock Band

  • Clint EastwoodClint Eastwood My baby's in there someplace She crawled right inRegistered User regular
    metroid prime, mass effect, mass effect 2, arkham asylum, burnout 3, sands of time, san andreas, harvest moon back to nature, final fantasy x, bastion.

    I mainly want to see the weirdos in your lists. Like, okay, Ocarina Of Time is going to show up a lot, but Spider-Man 2? probably not so much.

    I can't make a list like this without thinking for a long time.

    I know Final Fantasy VI is definitely on there.

  • SomestickguySomestickguy Registered User regular
    Really I'm kind of torn between TWEWY and Vesperia for the top spot

    They both have such excellent characters and combat

    But TWEWY has better plot

    But Vesperia has Troy Baker

    1. Baldur's Gate 2 - Perfection. You either know what I mean or you do not!
    2. Bioware Games in general - otherwise they'd take up 80% of this list. I'm looking particularly at Mass Effect 1 & 2 and KotOR, but I liked Jade Empire for what it was, too.
    3. Broken Sword 1 - I love 2 and 3, too, but 1 will hold a special place in my heart for being the first game to really have me interested in...well, games. Two Bs, two Ts.
    4. Bully - aaaaaaaaaaaaaaah my I love Bully so much. Exactly what I want in a Rockstar game, and the only one I have completed. Also, amazing soundtrack. I've actually played this to completion twice now.
    5. Dragon Quest 5 - they're such fun little games! The only series in which I don't really mind grinding. 5, because I like its story best.
    6. Ace Attorney, all of them - I really couldn't choose. Of course Phoenix's trilogy is amazing and I love the conclusion so much, but I also have a tremendous soft spot for Apollo Justice.
    7. Sims 2 - How many hours did I sink into this? I also like 3 and Mediaeval but not as much as I like 2.
    8. Vampire the Masquerade: Bloodlines - that writing! Sublime. And the best atmosphere of any game I have played.
    9. KotOR 2 - even with a mangled ending it still has an amazing story, although you do have to be careful to play the right character (sentinel) and gain influence with all of your companions to uncover it.
    10. Oh, gosh, I don't know. Perhaps a strategy game?

    I did it to emphasize how much more so than any other game Team Fortress 2 is my favorite.
