What is your ALL-Time Favourite game?
Hi to all,

I started out in the gaming world with the lovely game called 'Starsiege' I've played that game since 2000, I STILL love that game.

My all time console game has got to be Halo2, it is the Best I have played so far.
I haven't gotten around to getting my xbox consoles online YET. someday maybe I will.
Who knows? One thing at a time.

Favorite game, favorite game... Where should I start? I've played games from every genre: RTS, FPS, TBS, RPG etc. While I enjoyed every single one of them, only one managed to get the title of favorite: Gothic...
This game is just pure awesomeness! It was actually the first game I ever managed to finish without cheating or getting bored. And when I got my dirty little hands on Gothic 2 + Night of The Raven... Farewell, sleep!

I don't give a f*ck, God sent me to piss the world off!

Ooh. Tough one. Might be Ninja Gaiden/Ninja Gaiden Black. As far as recent games go.

All time favorite, I'd have to say Alpha Centauri or The Sims 2 (yeah, I still play it, way longer than I played the first Sims game). Warcraft III as well, probably my favorite RTS of all time, along with Close Combat III and Company of Heroes.

I'd say the one that started it all for me:

Picking an all-time fav is difficult. The games critic gig means I have to play so many games that narrowing them down to just one is impossible.

A handful (10) of my favourites is a little easier though I would consider a number of titles not in this list equally valid choices.
  • Civilization IV
  • Ultima VII: The Black Gate
  • Ultima Underworld II: Labyrinth of Worlds
  • Planescape: Torment
  • Arcanum: Of Steamworks and Magick Obscura (this is probably what would rank as all time fav)
  • Fallout
  • Deus Ex
  • System Shock 2
  • Wing Commander IV: The Price of Freedom
  • Thief: Deadly Shadows (the beautiful wrapping up of the Thief story and the inclusion of the scariest level in a computer game ever is what makes this my fav even though the first two games had arguably better mechanics)

There are significantly better race simulations on the PC than on the consoles. Go look for anything by Simbin as a good place to start.

And guys don't say a game is 'addicting'. That is a horrible massacre of the English language. The word is 'addictive'. Thank you. :)

Umm....it really depends if I'm going to be playing by myself or with friends. If I'm playing alone it would be a tie between Bioshock, Fallout 3, or Resident Evil 5. If I'm playing with friends I'd have to say Left 4 Dead 2.

Hm, i find it hard to pick only one seeing as they all are so different and from different times, also mixed expectations/view of good game mechanincs and so on.
I dont think i would be too happy if i tried replaying some of the games i got good memories with

Anyways i really loved Bioshock. I have played through it multiple times by now and i really just like the place and the theme in general. Also the different plasmids, story, upgrades and whatnot.

If i where to pick a second one i would say Fallout 3. I havent had the chance to play the previous ones (had not even heard of it when 3rd was released!). I just love these sort of games with a theme of 1930's - 1960's worlds.

TS3 aliens? Finally! Now give us OFB and proper apartments, damnit! - EA, you are breaking my heart. - I give up.

Well, my absolute favourite PS3 game is Enchanted Arms. I'm not very good at battling/shooting/not screaming when random things pop out of nowhere so I really enjoy the strategy combat mode in this game.

If I had to pick one, it would be Resident Evil 2. That's actually the only game I've ever played that literally had me jumping out of my seat and dropping my controller

Well, I haven't played a lot of video games apart from Sims but here are some that I've played and enjoyed a lot: Dragon Age Origins, Mass Effect, Kingdom Hearts 1 & 2, Final Fantasy 10.

Legends of Dragon Valley - A Sims 3 Random Legacy

If limited to PC games then my favorite is Mass Effect. I like it so much that I am even more comfortable with the whole of Mass Effect than I am with Star Wars. I played it three times through, even tolerating the ridiculous insanity difficulty with a sentinal class. All of this just to sift through the story again, try the DLC, and last mission.

If you are asking for my favorite game on any system I don't think I could make up my mind.

The sims 2 is my all-time favourite game and Soul Caliber for PS2 and PS3.

Im nearly 20 and the most favourite handheld console game of mine is Pokemon lol. Played it from the start and I cant wait for the new one coming out next year. I also enjoyed broken sword for the ps2 recently got a copy of it for the ds, which was good but it was better on the playstation.

It is in truth not for glory, nor riches, nor honor that we are fighting, but for freedom - for that alone, which no honest man gives up but with life itself.

currently, all things sims, and .Hack//GU for the PS2. i played the first series through as well [ and loved it, as well, ], and couldnt stop until i reached the end. im still utterly amazed at how real they made the characters seem, yet so diverse. im not talking appearances, though. i liked how they balanced graphics with visual effects/animated cut scenes, though. :D

YES!
I freaking love .hack//. )))))

My favorite game of all time would have to be Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic. That was a freakin' masterpiece.

The only game I haven't ever stopped playing is Sims, it will probably be my favourite game forever. It's the only game I really play now.

Sims aside, my favourite all-time game would have to be Crash Bandicoot 3 on PS1 - I loved that game. You also can't beat a bit of Guitar Hero now and again.

i really liked super mario 64. my older cousin had a nintendo 64, and i used to play whenever we visited. i like it most because it was taken from me so soon; he sold his system, and I still have a want to play and beat that game today. i loved the 3d, the sound fx, the castle, the water, the paintings. i still sometimes dream about the haunted house world.

also, i love spyro 1 on ps1, sonic on sega genesis, and soul calibur on dreamcast.

Silent Hill series, and mostly, Final Fantasy series. But I'm more interested in Sims series. =) They're so much fun!

Hmm. It's always hard for me to pick just one favourite of anything. No One Lives Forever 1 & 2 are games I never tire of--I love the storylines, the humour, and it seems like every time I play it I notice some detail I never noticed before. It's just a great series. :lovestruc
I also like Operation Flashpoint. It's a game we don't really go out of a "phase" of for long. I play it with my mum & brother. Very fun. I often find myself saying "roger" instead of "yes" in real life.
I also like playing Need for Speed: High Stakes with my mum & brother. Fairly old, yes, but still entertaining--when we can get it to work properly. Heh.
Obviously TS2 is on my favourites list as well.

It would have to be a tie between the Sims series and the Golden Sun series.
