metroid (NES) would be in my top 3 for sure.

Halflife/Counterstrike

I'd have to say the original Everquest is the best video game ever made. I remember the nights staying up late, realizing just how big that world was and feeling like i really accomplished something getting from area to area. Keep in mind, this was before games like WoW where every online game has a huge world now, plus being able to play with many others at the time felt awesome !

Thats cause there all the same game ;) and yeah, Im still playin cod4 when Im not enjoying battlefields graphics

Planescape: Torment
dragon age 1
final fantasy VII
mass effect 2

nuclear war 2 (tiny game on amiga)

+ arcanum

VERY ADDICTING!!!!

this game stole thousands of hours from me :)

Bubble Bobble

I would go with: Metal Gear Solid !
Maybe the best game I've ever played...

I used to spend my entire allowance playing SINISTAR!

can't beat a classic

other candidates: gta vice city, super mario world, rise of the triad, doom1+2

Half-Life and Command & Conquer

Morrowind
Oblivion
Skyrim

Yes, Bethesda has the midas touch when it comes to RPG's

super mario bros

This man knows what he's talking about. Fuck Trammel, EQ, WOW and all of you carebears!

If I'm going by what I have played most over the years of gaming it has to be the FIFA series of games, I've never missed a game in all the years it has been out and I still play it to this day. In the last 10 years I'd say Call of Duty series tho, I love those games, from playing 1 2 3 on my shitty Playstation to 4 when PS3 first came out, I've never missed one. The last 2 have been nowhere near as good as Call of Duty 4 was tho but still enjoyable games.

Honorable mentions have to go to Football Manager (soccer management game) I buy every new release of this and spends hours upon hours playing it. Every 1 season of championship takes roughly 6-8 hours depending on how involved you are. I probably do 5-10 seasons per game. A lot of gaming hours :)

the fact you cant take your kills gear in wow is main reason i cant stand it!

pk for life.

(player killer) for those who dont know. and not those goofy shooting games, real pvp. where when i kill you, i stand over your corpse and take everything in your bag, game over, go start again. as you said, carebears, all of em.

Duke Nukem
Tecmo Bowl
Double Dragon

Definitely! My brother and I and friends would sit up all night and when I finally completed the game, the game kept going! lol. Pretty intense game and concept. I love side scrollers.

On the PC I'd say a game like commander keen, or others who preceeded it. Stuck in the 640k barrier you had to use assembly language and hook into the clock tick interrupt and such to get smooth graphic action in glorious 16 colors.

mine are a lil subjective but I'm sure i'm not the only one picking some of these..

contra
zelda
tecmo bowl (all of them)
baseball stars
nhl 94 (one timers, dig it)
chronotrigger
star wars knights of the old republic (first one)

forgot Tysons Punchout.. That game was great

NHL93. Blood.

:2 cents:

And the original Street Fighter 2.
Man did I spend much days playing that one.

Dusty Diamond's All-Star Softball

That's the one.. I'm surprised it didn't get mentioned before the #29th reply

Read Dead Redemption ranks pretty high up on my list.

Burgertime

come on guys how can everyone here not remember the one that started it all

The original 350 adventure it predates pong ( I am pretty sure) and started the whole role playing thing

Amen :thumbsup

I thought I'd be the first to post Robotron. Robotron all the way.

Red Dead Redemption is on my list, love that game. Old school games it's gotta be Donkey Kong, wasted so many quarters back in the day.

The original Quake.... Specifically set up with the RuneQuake mod.

I loved playing that damn game...

This..........

Maybe not the best game but the only game i've been playing a LOT the last few years is Lord of the Rings Online. It's just awesome.

The old Sierra games are great as well. Loved Hero's Quest and Larry 3.
Also enjoyed Monkey Island part 1 a lot.
Actually started playing it again on my Iphone.

And Battlefield 3 is amazing.

Final Fantasy X.

Don't argue with me.

Honorable mention! :thumbsup

My all-time personal fav is Legendary Axe II on the Turbo Graphix16.

Close second is the original unreal tournament on pc.

StarCraft
King Quest 1
:thumbsup

Oh yea.. and Jones in the fast lane.

Great game. I also really enjoyed ME 1 as well. I wouldn't say it's the best series of games exactly, but definitely nice to see it get a mention here. :thumbsup


I'm surprised there aren't more HALO freaks on here.

Ramparts (sega something or other)
Starwars (sitdown arcade version)
Crazy Taxi (Dreamcast)
Rebelstar Raiders (ZX Spectrum)
Hunchback (Oric 1)
