The greatest game ever.

All time favorite: Jagged Alliance 2 (with 1.13 mods)
But I have spent countless hours on Fallout series too (especially 2nd part), so it's a tough question..

 

Well, everyone here is listing the best games besides Ocarina of Time ;P

 

Marathon: Infinity
Deus Ex: Human Revolution

 

gta vice city lol

 

Deus Ex:Human Revolution, new classic

 

Mass effect 2.

 

Everquest before PoP. I was a Guild Leader, hah.

 

Planescape Torment, Arcanum, Star Wars KoTOR, the entire Elder Scrolls line. Vampire Bloodlines. Fallout... god who can choose just one?

yeah, I'm an RPG Junkie.

 

RPG: I'd have to say either Planescape:Torment or Baldurs Gate 2: Shadows of Amn.

As for general fun multiplayer game: M.U.L.E.

Combat game to let off steam? Battlefield 2.

 

I don't know if it's been mentioned, but it's such an awesome game I don't even need to name it. All I need to do is provide the cheat it spawned....

up, up, down, down, left, right, left, right, B, A, start.

... nuff said ...

As a backup - since I'm a huge RPG fan, Wizardry Bane of the Cosmic Forge, and Final Fantasy NES (the original).

 

Easy...

Impossible Mission and Sinistar.

Whatever happen to games taunting you? Maybe that's why people like Portal?

 

Mount and Blade

 

LOL. So true!

 

Ah, M.U.L.E.!!

First real multiplayer game I ever played. My friends and I would cluster around the tiny screen on the C=64 and play that all day.
I was mildly amused when I heard the M.U.L.E. theme in Spore (though Spore is nowhere near as fun)

 

Never forget...

 

Arma II

Best sandbox simulation to date + second to none mission editor with powerful scripting capabilities make it pretty flexible for just about anything you can imagine in a scenario.

of course i wouldn't dare say scripting is easy, at time its rather difficult at the moment my problems are animals spawning on the airport runway interfering with A.I aircraft and the artillery script i found and adapting is posing problems.

Hmmmm.....

 

Has anybody mentioned Sensible World of Soccer? I lost about 3 years of my life to that game... And the theme tune and intro were immense. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yiaPZEhGdro

 

Command and Conquer: Generals .... the BEST game ever ... nothing tops it

 

Deus Ex 1 3

 

I could also add the Hitman series

 

I had quite some fun this year with Dead Space 12, Dragon Age 2, Shadowgrounds Survivor, Portal 2, The Dream Machine, Forget me not, Sworcery and still geoDefense. Expecting some more fun in form of Rage, Torchlight 2, Desktop Dungeons and hopefully Voxatron. Biggest dissapoinment in 2011 was everything TTG did. I'll grab Witcher 2 when it's a budget title. On the horizon we have games such as Dead Space 3, BioShock Infinite, a new Pikmin, The Witness, Miegakure, surprises in Humble Indie Bundles and there is still hope for a real adventure from Double Fine, Elite 4, a new The Bard's Tale and many ?.

 

MINE... you just haven't seen it yet. It's beyond your realm of comprehension!!

other than that... Stealth games, and some RPGs, and games with good story to gameplay intergration.

 

What about the meta game of indie game development with Unity!

 

Or Elite, one of the earliest free roaming games and probably the largest!

 

Is it larger than Daggerfall ?

 

@Meltdown : LOL!

 

Lets see
Daggerfall: 487,000 square kilometers (source Wikipedia)
Elite: 8 Galaxies (ditto)

;oP

 

greatest game ever ..

to me is :

Jet Set Radio Future for the original xbox

wish they would put another one out

 

Definitely a tough one, and I'm not sure that warm and fuzzy, is perhaps the best definition but, given the game play, music, story how the characters all intertwine with each other in some way, it has to be Resident Evil.

Collectively 1,2,3 code veronica. As I believe these are the only true Resident Evil games i.e.. keeping to the original storyline without trailing off into what seems more like a sci-fi fantasy genre, especially with number 5.

In all honesty there hasn't been a resi game Iv 'e truly disliked as a game, just would prefer it if they would of kept in tow with the original script. It can be annoying to have to mentally separate sequels from, prequals so it doesn't ruin the game for you.

But looking at it from perhaps the developers point of view, they would have to go by the sort of game they believe will sell the most, as well as most of the team that were part of the older games weren't part of the newer ones, always going to be be tricky.

Apologies for the extra long message, but I do Like my resi.

Best regards

this brings back memories for me http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Astrosmash

80's Astrosmash.
80's - Legend of zelda - a Link the past, or maybe it was in the 90's , i ono so long ago
years later ... Rockstars Max Payne.


edit : a quick search prooved it was actually 1992 when the snes zelda came out , man it was great., close enough , but yea , those my favs.

 

Astrosmash? Wow, that takes me back. I played that all day once, and paused it to not lose my score, only to have my father turn off the Intellivision. Man, I was pissed.

 

lol - yea we used to do that with all the games that had no save .. cant recall how many days supermario used to sit paused over night.

 

Half Life 1. re-playing it with 3d shutterglasses was amazing. One of the most important games ever.

 

1)OSU! - awesome rhytmic game, with nearly infinite music.
2)AI War - Interesting game, with interesting idea and hardcore gameplay.
3)Disgaea (1,2,3,4,Infinite) - best game for me, i spent on this so much time...
4)Persona (2,3,4) - Another beloved by me game.

 

Ultima Underworld 1 2 (feature for feature, no rpg has even approached them. No not even Bethesda games... and they still run great in DosBox)
Thief 1
S.T.A.L.K.E.R. (s..t your pants scary)
Homeworld 2

 

All games set in the Half Life universe

 

Greatest ever? Too many variables. Favorite ever: JOUST!

 

Deus Ex.

Monkey Island 2 for god sake!

 

Three words: Metal Gear Solid

 

Probably one of the Street Fighter series with a good mate is fairly solid. There's nothing quite like beating up on a best friend is there?

 

I prefer SSB when it comes to fighting games, that pretty much made up my childhood.

 

Wolfenstein is the only game I played to completion.

Doom is the online game I stayed up til the wee hours of the morning playing online (via 33K modem gasp!) and going into work late the next day.

 

1- The Bard's Tale III (late '80s)

2- Civilization II (mid '90s)

tied 3- Out Run Arkanoid (mid '80s)

 

The Bard's Tale III on the C64 was awesome, so was the packaging! :O)
On the Amiga The Bard's Tale I was the best version, the singing monks.
And on PC InXile Entertainment's The Bard's Tale is one of the funniest games ever made.

 

I think i already posted on this but now it is: Legend Of Zelda Skyward Sword, i must say i never played the original oot i played it on gamecube and now on 3ds but it dident keep me glued to the tv for 34hours strait but skyward sword did, i dare say its near perfect exept for link reacting a little bit slow to dodge Ghirahims punches. It brings great additions to the series like stanima, item upgrading and the super overpowerd beetle wich in most cases makes all enemys a walk in the park to kill.

hear is my full list:
1.skyward sword
2.OOT 3d
3.Runescape

 

I've heard really good things about it, but I can't bear the fact that one of the supposed greatest Zelda games was made for the Wii
