how did Hyadin's Four Fiends spoiler for you? FFIV is like a decade old.
Slain087
It's like the original trilogy and the older Indiana Jones movies - there are always people who have never watched it. Always. The thing is, they're all so old that we all regard them as old hat, and spoiler the shit out of them, e.g. Aeris' death in FFVII or Galuf's death in FFV.

Updating with my actual favourites.

The flagship Pokemon games have always had a special place in my heart. The Shin Megami Tensei series follows, along with a multitude of games from the Final Fantasy series and Pop'n Music.
Real1
Shenmue II

In close second is Nintendo's first party Mario and Zelda games.
YellowerYoshi
This is hard to narrow down to just one game but I think I can name 2 that are close competitors for the title:

Final Fantasy IX
LoZ: Majora's Mask

Inb4 "zomg you liek MM more than OoT whaaaat loser lololol!"
lukewarmholiday
No
LunaStrike
Counter Strike Source
osu!
S4 League
Global Agenda
GladiOol
Shooters:
Excessive Plus (free)
Urban Terror (free)

God bless the games I played when I was younger:
The Neverhood
Abes Oddysey
Abes Exodus
Ignition
Micro Machines v2

Probably The Neverhood and the 2 Abe games were the best.
I also had lots of fun with Ignition and Micro Machines, both racing games.
heintsi
I think i go with Ace Attorney series, no game has got me addicted before that badly(except osu) story and plot twists are just awesome.
Also from rpgs i'm gonna say golden sun and ff ix.

IMO Majora's Mask is superior in every way possible. I still prefer the Wind Waker.

/me still can't decide on his favorite game(s) of all time

I was wondering why this thread had six pages and I had never seen it before.

Anyway, Valkyrie Profile. Shit's too good.
Roddie
Sonic the Hedgehog 3. It had a lot to offer when i was a kid.
I'm still playing the game to this day on my Virtual Console. :)
Propeller_Cap
This is really hard for me to decide. I have enjoyed every single game I played so far, and I don't play that much games, either.

I'm gonna have to give this to Runescape. It's the game that I have played the longest time, and the fact that there's so much to do AND there's lots of people to talk to really makes it hard to lose my interest. (Though I don't understand why a lot of my RS-retired classmates don't think that way... :? )

Super Smash Bros Brawl, New Super Mario Bros Wii, and Mario Kart Wii are honorable mentions. They're really awesome games to play with friends imo (especially Brawl). :D

There's the keyword(s). Fun to play with friends. Just getting in before the hate does.

imo Mario Kart 64's probably better than Wii if it's just two humans playing, though. Either's better with a bit of booze.

Every single one is better than Mario Kart(Bike) Wii. I honestly prefer Double Dash the most, enjoy playing All-Cup Tour with my cousin. Great way to pass the time.
MK64 and DS are always fun times as well.
Ph0X
This thread has been successfully revived.

I really don't care for the DS version that much. For solo play, yeah, it's superior, but I don't ever solo play Mario Kart any more. I liked double-dash the least of any of the MK games. Not sure why. It just didn't sit well with me.
[deleted user]
Well, personally, I hate racing games. To me, it's like "I'mma hold the A button down and move the joystick in different directions! This is fun..." :o

But my favorite game EVER is most definitely TWEWY. The story... art... play-style... soundtrack... In fact, I have a hard time thinking of something I have AGAINST it. Too bad it's so damn hard to find nowadays.

Of course, my other favorites are: Golden Sun, EBA, Rhythm Heaven, Pokemon Platinum, Retro Game Challenge, Megaman 9, and more. But if you don't have TWEWY, stop whatever you're doing and buy it. NOW.

"TWEWY is not a game. It's a way of life." ~ Some guy from another forum that I've forgotten.

EDIT : I changed my mind, my favorite game of all time is any rhythm games (o2jam, osu!, etc.) and simple-looking yet brilliant RPGs such as Cave Story :D
Rendran
I think my favorite game of all time is Megaman X for SNES, played it too much back when I was a kid.
I also enjoy the Legacy of Kain series and stealth action games like Metal Gear Solid and Splinter Cell.
Desolationx_old
This is a very hard choice >.< ATM osu! is working its way up, But World of warcraft is probably my favorite. Im addicted to the Arena's >.< trying to level up a few classes in order to see what i like best in PvP. So far im liking the healers, Resto druid or Disc priest. Or a rogue. Although i dont have a priest or a rogue of my own, Ive played on my friends and gotten to 2200 on Ruin with them ^.^

I cant decide but my favorite 3 games are
1) Sly 3 honor among thieves (ps2)
2) Sonic riders zero gravity (again ps2)
3) Guitar hero 3 (yes ps2)



Note: I only have a ps2 and I have been asking for a ps3 but the slim ps3 has no backwards comparability and the Xbox 360 sucks (already went through 2 xboxes and I don't like them)

Honestly, I have to disagree. The CPUs were both too easy and extreme item whores.
It`s like *red shell*, *red shell*, *blue shell--dodges*, *lightning*, *another blue shell--can't dodge because tiny*, *red shell*, ~Oh look, I'm still in first place~

Multiplay and time trials are really what make this game memorable. It offers more depth than other Mario Karts because of the impact where you place your MTs and how you take corners/obstacles has on your time.

My Fav game of all time is a tie between Cosmic Break and Armored Core but Osu ! is gonna pass them lol =D
goodguy211
F-Favo...Favorite?! NO! That is the worst question ever! I can't answer that without changing my answer at least thirty times! >3<'

Uhm... Uh-Uhm...
I guess it's between Majora's Mask and Super Smash Bros. Melee. :Y
FabledArc
This is a really hard question to answer just because the game keeps being switched around. When I was a kid in the SNES era, it was Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars tied with Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong-Quest, during the Dreamcast era it was Sonic Adventure, GameCube had Super Smash Bros. Melee, and so on and so forth.

But it I had to choose one, it would be SMRPG for the sole reason that it was the very first game I ever played, getting me into gaming in the first place.

Wait, does this count as a necropost? D:

Counter Strike 1.6 + Condition Zero

For me that would be this game called Gotcha Force. I love it so much. It's just fun for some reason. The DDR and Pokemon series tie for second.

Maybe MKDS, god I loved that game :')

Legend of Dragoon

I'd be lying if i didn't say Metal Gear Solid 3.

I love the whole Metal Gear series but 3 almost perfected it, the only problem i have with it is how the cobra unit has shit all back story and just seemed to have appeared out of nowhere.

I'm also going to mention the Metroid series (although i haven't played the Metroid Prime trilogy ;_;) and the Legend of Zelda series for containing some of my most enjoyed games.

I haven't either. Nearly bought the wii port, but I didn't have enough money and now it's out of production.

Metal Gear .. Ever and Forever

I really like:

Golden Sun: The Lost Age (unfortunately never played 1)
Final Fantasy III DS
Dragon Quest Monsters (great premise, and a sequel is coming!)
Dragon Quest IX (so far 145 hours)
Disgaea:Afternoon/Hour of Darkness (a very good and addictive game, 175 hours so far!)
Castlevania Dawn of Sorrow & Portrait of Ruin DS

Um... Can't think of any more at the moment.
Damo900
Nearly everything has already been typed in this thread, such as Donkey Kong Country 2 and Earthbound. So I'm going to just say Spanky's Quest. That game is amazingly fun. I mean, just the gist of it sounds amazing(Your a monkey throwing bubbles that pop into balls to kill enemies which are fruit).
Xyrenus
Counter Strike, Red Alert, Starcraft =DD

This is a hard one... I suppose it would depend on genre though.
Role Playing wise... Shadow Hearts, hands down. Step Rhythm wise, Pump It Up! Exceed, and survival horror gets Clock Tower: The First Fear.

Hmm, RPG that I would come back too... probably Final Fantasy VII, favorite Online RPG: This is either between Diablo II or Phantasy Star

but my all time favorite game would be....

Zelda: Wind Waker... and it's also my favorite Zelda game
SargentPie
My most favorite game of all time? of ALL TIME???
Well, without question, it is Super Smash Brothers Brawl.

Closely followed up by Counter-Strike 1.6 and Super Mario 64, This masterpiece of a game contains a great fight system with over 25 characters to choose from, all with their unique and talented abilities. In addition, there is a 4player fighting mode, A 64-player tournament mode, A complete first-player mode, a boss rush, a fighting rush with all the characters in the game, challenges, home-run mode and a online multiplayer to boot.
I cannot to even BEGIN to explain how many hours I have poured into this great craftmenship of a video game.

Super Mario RPG

icy_rose

Locher
With friends? -> Super Smash Bros Brawl [I am still awaiting a new SSB for Nintendo 3DS with Paper Mario!]
Alone? -> Megaman Zero series [I am still not over it, that ending ._.]
Hinanawi-sama
paper mario, Zelda: OoT and Twilight Princess, WoW (PRIVATE SERVER ONLY, retail sux ballz), Twisted Metal Series, Medal of Honor Series (except the recent one), COD Series, CNC Series, SW: EAW, Sup Com 2, Lost Planet 2, TrackMania United, Borderlands


i consider a game a fav when, regardless of how old or overrated it is, you will still come back to play it
silmarilen
uhm not really a single game that is my favourite, but id say i like guild wars alot
other games i like are golden sun, rollercoaster tycoon, age of empires 2. maybe some others i cant come up with right now.
Rantai
I just dug up an old favourite that I can't believe I forgot.

The original Final Fantasy: Crystal Chronicles on the Gamecube, just so much fun that scales with the number of players you can get.
Clashway
Probably not my favorite game of all time, but seeing this topic made me think about the final boss fight from Earthbound. It just turned that game from a trippy and colorful adventure to an absolute nightmare of a fight. It even broke the 4th wall in the greatest possible way that I don't think will ever be able to be recreated in a game ever again. Not even Psycho Mantis from Metal Gear Solid was able to do it as well, and Psycho Mantis was cool as hell.

Earthbound is definitely somewhere at the top of the best games ever, I would say.
DaceGiga
DotA like games. Team work! Strategy! That adrenaline you get with kill streaks! The game's use of line of sight! The heroes! Overall, it's like a lovechild of all RTS games.
Ikillforpies
Idk. I like the tales series a lot
eddieee
All Zelda's and everything from blizzard:)
laport
My favorite game series are: GTA, battlefield, COD and Mafia.
starcraft 2 is of course a great game.

over 10 years ago I played a lot of counterstrike, and I still do every now and then.

I've spent a lot of time on these car games: LFS, GT4 on ps2, NFS5 (porsche 2000), TM

Probably Super Smash Bros. Melee, I played it every day all afternoon with a friend, we got really good at it and eventually started organising tournaments. We were pretty young so we came up with stupid ideas like the other contestants having to fight and then we would be the ''final bosses'' you had to defeat to win the tournament. Ofcourse after months of nonstop ''training'' no one stood a chance :P It never really got boring and the only reason we quit was cause the Wii and Super Smash Bros. Brawl released, but it never gave us the same feel so we just quit the whole thing. Sort of a shame.

I would pick Ocarina of Time, but during that time I was too young and scared to leave Kokiri Forest so I basically let an older friend of mine finish the entire game for me in which I did nothing else but have my own little roleplay sessions in Kokiri forest, pretending I was ''sword training''.

Final Fantasy Tactics for the PSone (the remake for PSP is awesome too). It is the strangest game on my list ompared to my usual favored games, and I've never liked any other final fantasy. But so many hours put into it when I was younger, and I played it over and over with different strategies.

Second favorite game of all time: Pokemon Emerald. Original Battle Frontier, finally a way to prove to someone I'm better than them at pokemon lolol

I loved that game SO much, I just beat it again about 4 months ago on an emulator. The game just never gets old, and I love how I can beat it without unlocking half the stuff the game has to offer. It's one of those games that has some of the most ridiculous secrets that take forever to find, items, forms, etc. I loved that game though, they screwed me over with Digimon World 4 haha

I won't lie to you, I never really played through 1 and 2 fully. But knowing a true Digimon game fan, I'm going to try Digimon 2 this weekend. Thanks for the tip! Even if it wasn't intended to be one lol. I've been playing the final fantasy hacktics mod thing lately, I like to play 2-3 RPG's at a time to avoid repetitive playing. I'll try Digimon World 2 thanks~
Pyro Wolf_old
It's hard for me to pick just one so I'm going to pick out one per system
SPOILER
  • NES = Startropics
    GB = Pokemon Silver
    SNES = Super Mario RPG
    Virtual boy = Red Alarm
    N64 = LoZ: Majora's mask
    GBA = Metroid ZM
    Game Cube = Metroid prime 2
    DS = WEWY
    Genesis = Rocket Knight Adventure
    Game gear = Sonic 2
    Saturn = NiGHTS into Dreams
    Dreamcast = Sonic Adventure 2
    Playstation = Spyro


Actually, now that I have them all listed out, I can easily say NiGHTS into Dreams is my favorite game of all time.
mathexpert
startropics is really good, I wish they would remake it for the wii or something.
