Best Game you've ever played

[Luie]

What is the best game you have ever played in your life?

Me: Max Payne.

What about you?

[Violator]

Deus Ex

Knocks s**t out of Max Payne

[Darkhand3]

Hi! I'm new to this forum. I like to play RPG games so I think that the best game is DiabloII Lord of Destrution. But for first person shooter I like Counter Strike.

[Luie]

lol!!!
you must be daryn!
good signature!!!
=)
very very amusing and interesting and in a way...correct!
hehe

[Darkhand3]

how did u know??

[el]

UT I really enjoyed Deus Ex it was very well done but I think you need to include different game types in a thread like this. best dm game. best role playing... yada yada!


Max payne looks so pretty!

[!-=sky=-!]

max payne is great
deus ex is good
counterstrike is ok
ut is good

sim city 3000 unlimited version rulez!! <-- ok.....the game is kinda old but i like it!

[supergenius74]

That's the toughest question in the world and I have seen it asked a 1000 times. I have been gaming regularly for 20 years and have had alot of favorites. I would say that resently Max Payne has really caught my attention. After I was finished I was not only tired physically but I was emotionally drained. Never has a game caused me to become so mentally involved. It was like being in a movie or reliving someones life in a 3rd person perspective of course but the game was a bit short. For me the best game award would go to a game that was the funnest since game should = fun then I would have to say the best game would be one that I had the most fun playing. This award goes to a game that I have logged the most hours of Lan game deathmatch, Online gameplay, Singleplayer gameplay, Map creation, Skin creation, and just never gets dull with the endless list of mods and updates......HALF-LIFE...:eek:

[KILLorBE]

That question is pretty hard to answer.

These are my fav's:
UT
Project IGI
Max Payne
Hidden & Dangerous (waiting for part 2, wonder if the game will be as cool as the trailer)
Collin Mc Rae
NFS5
Superbikes 2001

I've got a few more (C64 Games):rolleyes:
Uridium (or something like that)
Galaxy (golden classic)

[phiber]

STARCRAFT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Wa11y]

Buncha darn kids here. "ooh, I love those new flashy games that are all about graphics! " Lemmie tell you something! Back in the day, before 3D accelerators, we didn't HAVE flashy graphics! We had 8-bit graphics, and WE LOVED THEM! We were glad we had them!

Me, I gotta go with X-COM: UFO Defense and X-COM: Terror From The Deep. Both have AWESOME gameplay, and their graphics are perfect! Sure, not all flashy and 3D accelerated, and I even think they're 320X240, but it's some great stuff. These are the ONLY games where I sat down to play in the evening, and quit playing when the sun came up. Some DARN fine games!

[Baboo]

Baldurs Gate 2! - The most involving game and the best story ever in a computer game (since 3d monster maze on my ZX81).

(Although I did play SimCity3000 for 36 hours non stop the first time I put it on - no jokes)

Hardcore to the max. Not stupidity.

[maiof]

bolo = on mac
armour alley = on mac
realmz (first few versions) = on mac


;) those are old school games... you kids prolly never heard of them........ man i feel old... is 18 old?

[DAGO]

GIANTS:CITIZEN KABUTO The graphics are spectacular, gameplay is intense and its funny as hell...the Cockney accents floor me...my 2 cents.

[Superman53142]

Civ 2 and AOE are good too.

[Jon]

The most addicting game I ever played was a text-based basketball simulator by Lance Haffner Games called Basketball: The Pro Game. It ran on my old 386 with DOS 5.0 and I was thoroughly addicted for over 3 years...day and night.

As far as current games go...I'd have to say it's the Day of Defeat mod for Half-Life. I play it religiously at least a couple hours a day which makes up most all of my free time for anything.

I do enjoy several others that most have mentioned...most being 1st person shooters like UT, Deus EX, the new Wolfenstein MP demo is promising, Serious Sam, DF (I, II, LW), etc. NBA Live! series and Madden have been all-time faves too...

[FerrariF50]

AMEN!!!!

I love Deux Ex max payne is so damn buggy it locks up the game play but still plays sounds......So I have to restart...And I'm useing a Ati Radeon...And it's not only me!


Now you make me want to play Deux again!

Heavy Gear II. It is my favorite game of all time. Mainly because that game put $5000 in my pocket for winning a tourny. But it was a great game until the hacking started.

That ruins every game.

YES! YES! *squeal* ANother X-com fan!
I'm still playing first two games in the series (everything after no.3 is actually unrelated to the original X-com). The games have increadible balance and replay value! As for the graphics, ther're not so bad... ;)

[parkan]

Wasteland/Fallout/Fallout2 (NO TACTICS PLZ!) are my favorites, but UFO/xcom is pretty darn good too.

[foxmulder]

Deus Ex Rocks!

If you RPG Fans want to play the absolutely best RPG ever download the GOTHIC Demo from the Phirana Bytes Website!
Best Graphics in ANY RPG EVER !

This Game absolutely kills everything else!

I played the German Version but there's an english demo out.

You'll Thank me for the rest of your life

Okay maybe I'm exagerating just a little

[CrackedSKull]

Dues Ex is one of the best games i ever played. The multiplayer rocks too. Too bad the multiplayer never cought on though. I mean, it's been at least a month, but when I would play, games were limited to 12 players, and there was never more than 50 people playing! Total! The other drawback was it ran a little slow compared to some games, but the graphics were nice along with the story, and of course the augs and skill upgrades. If the game was more popular, there would of been a lot more multiplayer updates and the game would beat the living stuffing out of counterstrike.

[UnseenMenace]

Syndicate
Dune 2000
Q3A

[fuzzba11]

I'd have to say Quake 3 is up top, simply because it's the only game that has ever held my attention for this long...I've been playing since the first leak and still play regularly.

Recent ones would include

Deus Ex
Black and White
Max Payne

Older ones

Full Throttle
Monkey Island 3
Battlezone
Aliens vs. Predator(for LAN parties!)
Quake2: Capture the Chicken
Diablo 1&2 single player
Carmageddon(for kicks)
DOOM 1&2 (how could you all forget!?!)
Baldur's Gate
Total Annihilation

Old school

Kings Quests
Space Quests
Asteroids(arcade)
Frogger(monochrome!)
Bouncing Babies(anyone else play this??)

[Mithian]

Thelemac and I have our dorm room geeked out with a Nintendo, Sega, Super Nintendo, Nintendo 64 and half a dozen computers, so I really have a lot to choose from.. But lately I've noticed we've been playing a lot of Zelda, Zelda a Link to the Past, and Megaman! :) Although, I'm also a big fan of Asheron's Call.

All time favorite game though has got to be MegaMan III. But its a tough choice.

The game with the voice interface for Intellivision.............BOMBS AWAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Kung Fu: Nintendo

Ron Jeremy's Doin Dallas in the Dark CD ROM game.Man! My joystick never got a workout like this before EVER!

Unreal: FIrst time I saw that game with a Duel VoodooII SLI card setup my jaw dropped.

Half-Life: Killer first person shooter

Starcraft: Most addictive RTS game ever for me! Love loading up millions of zealots fully upgraded.

Ron Jeremy's next CD ROM "game": Cant wait!

[-Exi|e-]

Best game ever for me was Final Fantasy 1;) on the original NES. Must have finished it like 8 times and still played it until my NES finally gave in:D

[Slurgi]

Starcraft/Broodwar -- I was one of the best, seriously. I was invited to go to Korea but i turned it down (school)

Final Fantasy3 -- To date, this is the best RPG i have ever played, and probably always will be. It is PERFECT!

Might and Magic: Clouds of Xeen -- Great game, and my first PC game ever. I got Darkside of Xeen and beat it as well as the world of xeen. No game will have a place in my heart like Clouds of Xeen. It came on 8 1.44 MB disks. I thought it was huge!


I have Diablo2. I am disgusted you guys think this item-hunt game is fun. Blizzard totally ****ed me off with these ****-poor CPU intensive crap graphics and totally whacked gameplay.

Just my $.02

[Twyst]

Gotta be Half-life for best FPS
Baldurs Gate series for RPG
X-com UFO Defense for Strategy
and any of Sierra's original "Quest" games for adventure i.e. King's Quest, Police Quest, and Heroe's er Quest for Glory.

[Cowboy X]

One of the best i've ever played was called "Out Of This World " it was also available on bbses( remember those ?) as PKworld.It was devilishly hard and lightyears ahead of its competition its sequel was flashback.

I also like:

doom2
halflife and mods
System Shock 2 (best first person shooter story )
Total Annhilation
dune2
Fallout series ( currently playing tactics )

YES!

Mega Man 3 for nintendo was like one of my first nintendo games. It rocked, I can still beat it easily.

Beat topman, use top spin and beat shadowman, use that to beat Magnet man, use that to beat hard man.

Then beat snake man and use that on gemini man, use that on needle man, then use that on electric man.

The 4 corner bosses are a bit tougher, but nothing too bad. After that, it is a peice of cake imo! last guy sucks!

[Legionnaire]

My favorite game, that made me a gamer at the age of 7, was Mechwarrior 2. My rig cant even play it now, but nothing compares to that.

Modern game: Half-Life by a few THOUSAND miles.

You mean Final Fantasy 6.

[WesMarden]

i think he means DAGGERFALL, the best roleplaying game to date. Yes it has those wonderful ;) graphics, but in terms of sheer freedom to do as you choose in a large game world, nothing matches it.

That and I always loved duke nukem 3d. I even enjoyed the one that came on the disk with it, duke nukum. A nice side scroller of old school style. Speaking of Duke, who can forget his Chinese cousin Lo Wang. Shadow warrior had good crass lines and killer rabbits. I need to reinstall that one.

Starcraft helped me graduate with a C+ average. Of course before it came I had 3.5 semester and one semester of 4.0.

It has been awhile since my C128(usually 64 mode) was hooked up. But this discussion of old games/great games has got me to thinking about hooking it up again. Aside from monitors(only have 1) I probably have the equipment to get 2 or 3 systems up and running down here in the basement. I am tempted to set it up and play Kung Fu Master or Bruce Lee or Dig Dug or some of the other games I can't remember. If only I could remember the commands.

From the old to the new, I managed to get an x-box and have played a little Halo tonight. It has real potential to be on this list. At first I was a little nervous and thought maybe I should have gone with NFL fever. But after I got the controls down, it has turned out to be fun.

So for a list of my favorite games.
Daggerfall
Duke Nukem 3D/Shadow Warrior
Adventure Construction Set for the C64(This would be a great idea for today. With modern Graphics.)
StarCraft
Zelda 2 for the NES(used to play this alot on an emulator too)
Earthworm Jim for Genesis
I honestly liked Tom Landry Football as a generic football game.
Baseball for the NES(whatever the original game was with the poor fielding third baseman.)


I have enjoyed alot of games, but these are the ones that leap to mind. But my favorite game of all time remains Daggerfall.

[arf325]

my fav.game is earthbound mother2...maybe 3 when it comes out...

[Maximus Nickus]

For me it would have to be Spy vs. Spy ( The one in the antartica ) for the Commodore 64, I've never had so much fun playing a game. I played it so much the tape broke,
I never have found another copy.... (sob sob):(
The strange thing is just how much better the older games are, I mean games are supposed to be different to reality (so we can escape it!) however games seem to be getting to much like real life and this takes the interest out of them.
The only game I have found recently was American MacGee's Alice but I can't afford to buy it! :(

[DarkInferno_IV]

Counter-Strike: Probably the best fps EVER.

Starcraft/BroodWar: Ive played it a LOT. It OWNS stuff like RA2 and Tiberian Sun.

ZERGLINGS RULE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Have you tried the various c64 emulator sites?

At the Wal-mart I work at Alice is now down to 19.96 or so. I don't know what the price is elsewhere, but you should be able to find it for something close to this price.

And yes games are too cookie cutter, follow-the-trend now adays. I yearn for creative/different game types. Think of how nice a good side scroller would look on today's systems. I would like to see something like Duke Nukum, but with modern graphics. You could even use a 3d engine. I am just picturing what could be done with the computers of today. And another problem is games are too scripted. Which is why I like daggerfall, it gives you freedom to do what you want in a game world.

[abb1]

I have just bought Metal Gear Solid 2. This game is definately added to my list. Its for the Playstation2 though.
Abb:D

[trey_w]

how about pong from atari

lol

i love that game

[Maximus Nickus]

What is daggerfall?
Anyone know of C64 Emulator sites?
American McGee's Alice is $43 over here! £30!
( I'll see if I can get a copy of my mate, just this once!)

[Miss winnie]

me? I was STUCK to infantry for a lonnnnnnnnnnnggggggggg time! it's a great game.. If you have no other good games that is.. well cs is ok.. but I got bored of that pretty quick.. :) i get bored of game so quick,....

[Itchie]

Street Fighter 2!! I must've spent more than a thousand dollars worth of quarters playing it at the arcade, and then when it came out on Super Nintendo I was the first kid to get it.

My favorite computer game would probably be Age of Empires 2. There's supposed to be a sequel to it coming out next year. Before I built my new computer, the best game I could play on my P1 was Caesar 3. That was pretty addictive.

[BigRed]

Counter-Strike: Probably the best fps EVER.
2 things wrong with that
1. cs isnt a game, its a mod for half life which is the actual game :p
2. S&I is better :p

hmm now fav games. i would say my fav now is Stronghold.

and the following list are the games that have consumed the most of my life (aka favs)

Age of empires (all)
Half-Life (S&I)
Quake series
Doom Series
Starcraft and broodwar
Lords of the realm 2
C&C series

and the 2 games that i owe most of my life to are *drum roll*
Asteroids and Scorched Earth!!!!

Scorched Earth being #1 hehe. that game has consumed 6 years of my life, lol. (age 12-18 :p) and it still consumes my boredom time.
i still have an old 486dx4 50 machine set up with dos just so i can play scorched earth. it runs too fast on my good computer, hehe.

[Maximus Nickus]

This isn't a debate..... just to remind people!!!!!!!!

[Zuck Gou :)]

Im gonna add Tom Clancys: Ghost Recon to my list.

Damn this game rocks :)

[Killer Chef]

::UPDATE::
The best game I gave played is now....Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon.

It is AWESOME!

[Killer Chef]

Does anybody remember 'LodeRunner' for the C128 or was it the C64?

I used to play that game for hours at a time.
Simple but very addictive!

[abb1]

Just finished playing Metal Gear Solid 2 for the Playstation 2. EXCELLENT GAME. One of the best I have played yet.
Abb :D :D :D :D :D

[Krome]

Tony Hawk Pro Skater 3 on PS2 is rad, fake as heck..but still fun. Rodney Mullen rules!!!

[Blackearth]

place of being my favorite game is shared by a couple titles:
system shock 2
(liked 1, but. . .)
thief 1&2



sure i loved max payne, but i didnt play it nearly as much as i played the above games. i think half-life is overrated. i liked it, but i just didnt like it as much as others. i played counterstrike a couple times and then that was it. i love UT. i played ut almost as much as play my favorites. Q3, not as much fun as i had hoped.
one game maybe only i liked was hardwar (not mispelled). nobody seems to have heard of it before though.

[Legionnaire]

T2 is also 1337

(Tribes 2)

Buy it if you ahve over a 800 mhz and 32 meg card.

DAMN!! Scorched Earth 0wnz j00! I love that game!

[drunkmonkey]

Tribes2 Is The Best
Online, multiplayer 1st person shooters are the best, Quake 3 arena is kind of like this but Tribes 2 is much more advanced. It supports stuff like client side scripting, server side modding very easily. I can't get enough of the game, during summer all I did was play that game. Try it out(Demos don't show it's full potential):beer: :D
My avatar is a pic of one of the characters.

[GeckoBanzai]

For recent games:

FPS:Max Payne is some good, Operation Flashpoint single player, Half-life and all of its mods (CS for MP).

RPG: I have to go with either Alice or Baldurs Gate.

BUT there are emulators for NES, gameboy,SNES, Genesis and NEO-GEO that have hundreds if not thousands of games. With MAME for old arcade games too, the sheer variety of games available is mind boggling. I'm just now finishing up Final Fantasy 5 and for sheer time spent playing they would have to rank up there as my favs of all time. For strategy I would have to go with Master of Monsters for the genesis. My wife and I would spend weekends playing this game (any game that you like and a woman likes is a keeper).

[Speed_Freak]

Haven't seen alot of westwood....

I'm an RTS fan so mine would have to goto good 'ol RED ALERT.
hmmm....SC brood war, think DII go too much hype but as far as RPGs go, i luuuvvvv Baldur's Gate 2. anyway, thats my two cents.....'course, max payne kicks @$$ :D

[GeckoBanzai]

Man I'd almost forgotten about AoE. I dusted it off and reinstalled it. Now if I could just pull myself away from B&W.............

[Maximus Nickus]

How many pages was the other one?

[CrystalMethod]

Think it got up to 80 or so, before they stopped it. It was getting stupid at that point. My favorites in no particular order would be...

-Half-Life (Counter-Strike)
-Aliens vs. Predator multiplay
-Return to castle Wolfenstein
-Mega-man for the NEC
-Quake II CTF
-Dune II
-Syndicate
Theres probably more i'm forgetting but thats all I can recall right now.

[Maximus Nickus]

80!!!!!!
How many post were there!!! WOW!

[Smizack]

I just beat Max Payne. I thought the ending sucked, but it left an opening for a good sequel.
Also got Alice. I love how twisted it is.

[Krome]

Alice is for $20 @ Electronics Boutique, is it worth it? What's the gameplay like?

Sam I Am!
I like this game! along with Giants,QuakeIII,StarWarsRacer,TombRaider1-5,UT,& countless others!:D

[GeckoBanzai]

Rogue Squadron. I put in lots of hours on that one. Shooting down Tie fighters and blasting AT-ATs ranks up there as one of the best gaming experiences ever.

Alice is kind of goth but its really cool. Jumping from book to book in the library and eery game sounds and voices, is some good.

[Krome]

I just finished Serious Sam, oh my gosh... WE WANT THE SEQUEL!!!

[cornbread]

"Unreal Tournament" is by far one of the best games I have ever played.

[Krome]

Originally posted by cornbread

I just got Totally Unreal, and i'm not really impressed. I have not tried Counter Strike, but it has to be better than Unreal Tournament. The Unreal Championship movie on the bonus disc looks very impressive tho. I've had it for a week now, and I just can't get into it. :rolleyes:

[MadMan007]

Best Ever?
Old-a$$ Microprose games from late 80's/early 90's(when Sid was still there):
original Gunship
M1 Tank Platoon 1
F19/F-177 Stealth Fighter.

All ultra-realistic Sims, which to run their real-time physics engines (for M1 tank at least) on 286's back in the day were programmed in assembly language! :eek:
Not to mention the 250+page manuals that come with the latter two that described not only gameplay but military theory, and had tons of pages on weapons systems. Have not seen anything comparable EVER!
I do not play sims anymore though because nowadays they seem to be about graphics and not realism...too bad Micropose got bought by M$ :)

MadMan007

[Miknow]

Dark Age Of Camelot -RPG
CS -Shooter
X-Com Terror from the deep was good to old though

[drewthomas14]

UT is the best

[SafirXP]

PC
Ultima 8: Pagan
Max Payne
Age of Empire II
Q3A
UT

Console
Donkey Kong Country (this series is too damned good, i still play'em)

Me, I gotta go with X-COM: UFO Defense and X-COM: Terror From The Deep. Both have AWESOME gameplay, and their graphics are perfect! Sure, not all flashy and 3D accelerated, and I even think they're 320X240, but it's some great stuff. These are the ONLY games where I sat down to play in the evening, and quit playing when the sun came up. Some DARN fine games!

oohhh yes. you cant beat those old RPGs. Especially the X-COM series.
Wa11y did you try X-Com:Apocalipse?

Mega Drive
StarFlight
BuckRogers
Another world (same as "out of this world")

Atari800xl
Alternate Reality:The City
Megablast II
Spy Vs Spy

Snes
DonkeyKong Country3
Killer Instinct

PC
Max paine
Sega Rally2
Quake III

the whole AlienBreed Series : Amiga
Perfect Dark : n64

[moorcito]

UT - best FPS, by far the best game ever.

Castle of the Winds - best old school rpg

scorched earth, Master of Orion, Doom, Jane's ATF, Freedom Force,... the list could go on and on. Each genre has its best/worst.

[Bigsexy]

Let´s divide it by platforms like james.miller did:
**************************************
C64: Summer Games | Zak McKracken
AMIGA: Super Cars II | Loom
SNES: NBA Jam
GameBoy: Tetris
N64: Golden Eye
PSX: International Superstar Soccer Pro Evolution
PS2: Tony Hawk 3
Saturn: SEGA Rally
Dreamcast: Tony Hawk 2
PC: Mafia | Counter-Strike

cool. i'm honoured, Bigsexy:)

oh yeah i forgot about super cars 2 on the amiga - i still play that now! lol

[Jawsome]

Final Fantasy 7

[james.miller]

i think after we get sufficiant posts we should compile a list of mabey the top 5 games in each catagory, or for each system. what do you guys think?

[SafirXP]

Yeah why not? But who's gonna do it?

Hey james you're using the C3 processor! How is it? Like in terms of speed.

[james.miller]

bout p2-550 speed mostly. although it can be faster at times.
certainly fast enough to run emulators (all except the n64), and i can even play max payne on it!

most importantly, the thing to remember is: Silence is golden!

[SafirXP]

I guess C3 will be a good solution for use in rackmount servers or in those blade type servers! It can be crammed into those thin blades because of the lack of a fan. It supports MMX & 3DNow, but not SSE I reckon. Can it be used on a dual P3 board?

[LittlePiggie]

Zork 1 all the way.

[Robbie]

I remember when I was a kid I use to LOVE to play Zork. (first one)

I remember hurrying home just so I could play it.
Rob

[superawol]

monkey island.. all of them. the first was my #1 escape back in the day. still is. one of the best replay values for any point and click

[EyelessFace]

BEST GAME OF ALL TIME: Metal Gear Solid 2

Other Favs: MGS, Total Annihilation, UT, Command & Conquer: Red Alert (non of that SC BS), MDK, Super Metroid (Ive had Metroid prime reserved for 7 months now :))

Thats about it.

[SniperXX]

UT, Max Payne, Battlefield1942, and MOH:AA, most of the C&C Series. I seem to be going more for WWII games than Deathmatch and stratagy games now. Oh well....


EDIT: Console games: Golden Eye, Perfect Dark, Super Sash Bros, 1 and 2, Super Mario 64... most Nintendo 64 Games.

[baqai]

i wonder if anyone remembers the game "River Raid" or something like that from Atari days lol i used to spend the whole freaking day playing that

also me and my friend used to play Tennis a LOT on Atari :D

[zer0burn]

probably counterstrike beta 5.2 though

[SniperXX]

I have an Atari, ahh the early days of consol systems! My dad gave it too me ALONG time ago, now most of the games can be found for graphing calculators (TI-83PLUS), LOL.

[freddiedaman]

As far as PC games go:

1. Neverwinter Nights (That game is flawless, hands down)
2. Max Payne
3. Deus Ex

None of the above can touch The Last Ninja for C64 though....the best, most original game ever created...:-)

Age of Empires 2 (and Age of Conqurers)
Asherons Call 1 & 2
Motocross Madness 2
Tony Hawk 1 & 2 (psx)
All the Final Fantasies FF9 and under

single player: Max Payne (but Mafia is getting good)
multiplayer: RedFaction

[LittlePiggie]

Oooh ooh, I have more I have more!!

fps: Tribes2 tied with tribes
rts: Starcraft
fs: x-wing series
real life sim: sim ant

[Redstone]

Tie between Starflight I 1986 and Ultima Underworld - The Stygian Abyss 1992

[c0nfusion]

Counter-strike first and foremost. Always go back to that game no matter what new games i get.

[TollPhree]

Ultima online

Red Faction

[Daemonfly]

Ones that stick out in my mind:

Shogo
Halflife
Unreal Tournament (not the 2k3 crap)
Battlefield 1942 (newest addiction)

[XgladiatorX]

I just got battlefield 1942 For xmas but have not been able to play it because my video crad cannot handle it, I just sent for a new one I think it is a nvidia GF4 ti 4200 128 from tiger direct.com

[Da_Beeblebrox]

I think my favorite game of all time has to be Duke Nukem 1. The side scroller. I just freaking loved that game. Would play til my mom would make me get off (was about 3-4 at the time.)

Anyone remember Xargon? Loved that one too.

[nil_esh]

Here's my favorites chronologically:

1) Jumpman
2) Street Fighter 2
3) Goldeneye

Its tough to say between SF2 and Goldeneye, which one is my all-time favorite, but I would probably say SF2.

[Taenim]

Hummm, My fav games off all time ay? Well, heres a few, in no particular order...
Metroid Prime for dah Cube, Super Smash Bros (the first one), CS, MOHAA, DoD, UT2K3, UT, TFC, Metroid Fusion (GBA), any old Kirby Game (they all RoXed), and thats all I can think of off the top of my head...

[xCarne_Asada]

Star Goose
Half-Life
SOF
Mafia
Max Payne
GTA 3
Quake 3
Carmagedon

[BigJk-47]

Unreal Tournament (InstaGib and Sniper arena Lowgrav) :D
Max Payne
Grand theft auto 3
Gran Turismo 3
Half-Life
(Many More Im forgetting)

[[BG]SitiZen]

It used to be Quake2. Since then...........hmmm...., I don't have favorite game.

[Aqrhine]

i would have to say the elder scrolls three: morrowind

[Ludio]

The whole Gran turismo series, maybe not GT2 for PS2. The Sims, I spent the Sophmore year of H.S. playing that game it was and still is the most addictive game i've ever played.

[-N-]

those Half-Life series really soaked me into the game. I love how HL designed their single player missions. Now everyone copies it! :D

Gotta love No One Lives Forever's cartoony yet realistic single player mode.. along with Medal of Honor's war-like battle sequences. Max Payne won me over with the fantastic bullet-time feature.
Starcraft will always be a classic. Diablo is losing its touch...

too many to name~~ :p

[copper_top]

homeworld
homeworld cataclysm
half-life (origianal singleplayer)
diablo2
shogo

[Fightingpiper]

By far the best game ever created was http://fightingpiper.home.attbi.com/galaga.jpg

[OC Noob]

Zelda 1 was the first non-liniar game I ever played and will always be "the best" for me.

Mario is a close second since it is the first game with really cool graphics and really cool dynamics that made the levels seem interesting an unique as aposed to the Atari style: the next level is the same only harder/faster.


I'll bet if there was no NES system, nintendo wouldn't even be around today.

[Redstone]

homeworld
homeworld cataclysm

Homeworld was cool but way to hard for me. When I play a game I dont want it to be "work" . I do that all day.

[copper_top]

i wouldnt call homeworld work, but it was chalenging. i had to use a strategy guide for help on a few levels and i have yet to finish cataclysm.

[progamer]

Deus Ex. Best Game Ever.

[Redstone]

i wouldnt call homeworld work
Yeah I guess that’s true. It is a great game but just too frustrating for me.

[RuKK]

Quake III Arena

It crushed everything, and nothing has come close to matching it yet :)

[TheNamelessOne]

Deus Ex is my all time favorite game.

[John Jr]

Diablo II is great... Next Mohaa

[Banyan]

mario brothers

[Penguin4x4]

DOOM COLLECTORS EDITION

[zachj]

I absolutely cain't believe that so few people even mentioned BF:1942. I counted 4, and only 2 actually voted for them. I think this is the greatest game I've ever played. I'm not an avid gamer, but it's certainly very good. I don't like UT and CS, but just because they seem so fake (monsters and what not). I've not played Deus Ex or Max Payne, but they look pretty good. Guess I should hold off on judgement of good games until I've played them all, but I still think BF:1942 is great. Too bad my video card is craptastic and I don't have enough RAM . . . Hell, if I had more and better, it might actually be playable . . .:D :mad:

[IR1]

Hey Fightingpiper, my best buddies Dad is the holder of the world record score for Galaga. you can look him up in the Guiness Book.

He had the score and level glitch because it got so high.

IE it went from one side and then it started over and kept overlapping itself.


Now my favorite games?

Halflife SP
Metal Gear Solid (ps)
Res Evil 2 (ps)
Skies of Arcadia(dc)

I think I still have it in the closet along with the 2600. Bunch of other games too I've long since forgotten about. Ahhh the memories... :cool:

[Wangster]

Old adventure games that had to depend on gameplay, humor, storyline to make it a good game.

I liked the Quest for Glory series, the Leisure Suit Larry series (hilarious).

Lately, I've been really into horror based FPS so my vote goes to Aliens Vs Predator 2. I can't wait till they make the third game based on the Doom 3 or Unreal 2 engine!

[toxicrain]

Deus Ex and Crusader: No Regret all the way...

max payne/ Ut2003

Currently playing Urban Terror (Q3 Mod).....

Other than that, best games ever for me include:

Star Wars: Tie Fighter.... a totally immersive game
C&C .....too many lost days and nights
The X-COM games.....again chunks of life forsaken :p

Those are just PC games, consoles and coin-ops, I could go on forever :)

[Falcon-K]

Goldeneye, i played that more than any other game ever

[mage_x]

final fantasy 6/7, best rpgs ever made

Hmm, I'd have to say my favorite game of all time is Star Control 2: The Ur-Quan Masters. Other favorites of mine are:

MoO (the first one)
Dark Sun: Shattered Land
Battlezone (activision one a few years ago)
Homeworld (It was Not work heh)
Final Fantasy 6 (3US) and 7
and the Armored Core series

Homeworld 2 is coming out some time this year as well. I wish they would make a homeworld type game where you could explore a whole bunch of systems like in Star Control 2. That would be so cool.

[Jerky]

RTCW ONLINE IS THE BEST EVER!!!!!!!!


WHOOOHOOOOOO!!!!!


THE ENEMY IS WEAKENED!!!!

[wildfrogman]

Well, I would have to say the best game i had ever played was actually the first fps~type game i ever played....the one and only HALF LIFE heheh. Ohwell, all i can say is...what a game that was back then and still has alot of people playing it.

Starcraft. I spent way too much time playing a bunch of silly use map settings games. Though it hasn't been out long, Natural Selection looks promising and seems to have the potential to be an all time favorite for me.

Edit: And C & C Red Alert, classic game, easily in my top 5 of all time.

All mario games i hate to say it i love :) they are pretty freakn fun. All the way up to mario 64 enyway havent playd eny others besides mario 3 [nes] when me and my buds come over to my place we play it on the pc lol. All this high power tech to run NES games lol.

Final Fantasy 4 and 7. To me FF7 was the greatest FF ever to be made , all the new ones to me are junk.

UniRally - me and my bro when yougner playd this way to much , its a unicycle racen game for snes where u do stunts and crap lol.

Doom for the Snes was freakn awsome.

[Disco..Rules!]

1 Railroad tycoon 2
2 Tropico and the exp pack gee it feels good to be a communist dictator sometimes :)

[jer1]

i like the kill feature for stress relief in delta force

[Enemy Down!]

these games brought out feelings of euphoria for me.


final fantasy (the first one for nintendo) i was playing this game 8 hours a day! i had ZERO worries about my life.

final fantasy 2 (snes) this was probably one of the greatest games for snes., oh the story line, oh the mode seven effects when you flew the flying ships, (forgot what they were called, lol). can't belive the bad guy was your father...lol. i wish i was 12 again.

super mario kart for snes. multiplayer play was the best! saturday nights were spent trying to shoot luigi with the green shells to show off my skills. only sissies used the homing red shells! wish i was 12 again.

grand theft auto 3 & vice city (for ps2) i toked up, stole a car and was driving it recklessly, couldn
t stop laughing after i first saw the car's doors fly open from the damage they recieved.

Dune II the building of a dynasty. great game. wish it was multiplayer.

c&c the original. great game to play against your next door neighbor over the modem.

the first DOOM! especially multiplayer. i remember getting so excited i started having heart palpulations because i got to be part of a 4 player coopertative play in doom. i wish i was 14 years old again....

half life (the original), after years of post doom, and crappy quake, comes the mother of all pc games. what a great and funny story line! addictive....

then came counter strike. hilarious! the greatest online player action game i have played. RUSHRAPEREPEAT!!!

homeworld, GREAT trance-like space RTS game!

master of orion, both 1 & 2. i just couldn't stand when the council voted to select a cpu as king. kill em all! oh, in MOOII, i was at the alien leader's planet, bombarding it when my 486 decided to crash, lol. could not reach that planet again.

other great games that i recalled.
privateer the original (pc)
dragon warrior (nes)
double dragon (nes)

i would just like to add, that game makers are not making them like they used to. trying to fool us with all this eye candy is making me sick. where is the innovative creations? where is the promised AI with our new, powerfull machines? i feel that here is about ONE game that comes out every 4 years that is fantastic to play. when i was younger, i recall numerous games that had to be played. maybe this due to the fact that i am getting older, but somehow i doubt that.


i forgot to mention STREET FIGHTER II for snes. RULED!!

[kianss]

sh** yea "enemy down" mario cart was the Shiznaa. My bro is older then me and at the time it was out i was still playn FF games and he SOLD the game right as i was about to beat it FINALLY and bought mario cart. I was SO FREAKN PO'd but after awhile i just started playn it for hours and hours with my friends.
