<font color=pink>There is no best game, only your favorites :D </font>

Pong. No matter how long you play it, it never gets old.

I'd have to say Elite, a very good game and never the same twice, I just hope they bring out a new one.
Also spent ages playing FF7 and vairous champ manager games.

NiceWorg 01-14-2004 04:21 AM

Civ 2 woohoo! :(

Or it could be BG2 if you like RPGs.. and obviously you do. [img]smile.gif[/img]

wellard 01-14-2004 04:38 AM

BG2

Has anyone else made a game other than bg2? [img]graemlins/laugh2.gif[/img] [img]graemlins/laugh3.gif[/img]

<font color=lime>I have noticed a lot of folks here like BG2 alot. So do I, but I liked BG1 more. I played that game over and over for a year! ;)
Maybe If I had bought BG2 first, then I could agree. Anyway, My vote would be a toss up between BG1 and Civ3. :D </font>

In the case of Planescape: Torment, I'd have to disagree ;)

Paladin2000 01-14-2004 09:03 AM

Star Wars: Knights of The Old Republic (KoTOR). I have not been replaying games that many times before.

Vaskez 01-14-2004 01:26 PM

Hmm I'd have to say the Heroes of Might and Magic games are the best followed by, in no particular order, the Civilisation games and the Warcraft games and the Red Alert games and the Baldur's Gate games.

Lose the Red Alert series and insert Dune 2, and I'd agree with you Vaskez [img]smile.gif[/img]

slicer15 01-14-2004 02:50 PM

Well, I enjoyed the red Alert series - some brilliant acting and an engrossing storyline - but I westwood really flopped when they made Generals. :( I've never seen such a lousy game. no acting, no soryline (not one that's decent anyway) and a huge requirement...
But then KOTOR and Prince of Persia rock, as well as the FF series...so many to pick from...

Blind_Prophet 01-14-2004 03:06 PM

My favorite games are FF3,FF Tactics, StarCraft, Hero's of Might and Magic Series, lots of people would disagree on this one Diablo2 but i like it so thats all that matters, then theres Metal Gear solid 1 and 2, Devil May Cry only the first one, Baulders Gate 1 and 2, Icewind dale 1 and 2 i really really loved Icewind dale 2. Then we got Doom 1 and 2, Quake3. Ok I named to many already so i'm gonna stop there.

Zuvio 01-14-2004 05:15 PM

<font color=gold>
Why is every one suddenly cheering for PS:T? Weird [img]graemlins/saywhat.gif[/img]

Best game ever? Nanobyte said it: PONG. Nothing beats it...

Anyway, Red Alert games were at the bottom of my best list anyway - they are good cos we've had a few 6-player games over a LAN and they were a laugh.

just remembered:
DAMNIT - I NEED SOMEONE TO PLAY HOMM4 AGAINST!? Anyone want a game sometime?

Kakero 01-14-2004 06:50 PM

My favourite? Might and Magic 6, Breath of Fire 3/4 , Medal of Honor AA/S...

T/-/alali 01-14-2004 07:42 PM

Star Craft Brood War! My Battle.net name is Thalali so pm me or MSG me anytime you want a game!

dplax 01-14-2004 07:47 PM

Blizzard games, civilization 1 (much better feeling IMO than the sequels), mordor: depths of dejenol (best char development system I've seen so far).

Nerull 01-14-2004 09:54 PM

My personal favorites: BG2, PS:T, BG1, Bard's Tale series, Shadowrun (Sega Genesis version), original Legend of Zelda, Space Invaders, Adventure, and Pirates.

SpiritWarrior 01-14-2004 10:38 PM

BG1 & IWD1 (the sequels were good but these were the pioneers), Thief 1 & 2, Riven and Neverwinter Nights (MPer a must though).

GokuZool 01-15-2004 05:40 AM

Zelda: Ocarina of Time (N64)

It didn't get a perfect 10 on IGN for nothing. ;)

Ghoul 01-15-2004 03:27 PM

I like the 'Jagged Alliance' games most. [img]smile.gif[/img]

Xen 01-15-2004 05:09 PM

BG 2. I just got PS:T. After I finish it maybe I will change my mind. [img]tongue.gif[/img]

Mr_Krift 01-15-2004 09:31 PM

KOTOR, BG2... BREAK OUT!!! And Dx-ball

Juddy[SCGW] 01-15-2004 09:54 PM

Well i myself hav many favourites to name a few the FF series on PS2, Devil May Cry 1 and 2, the gidd old Tribes on pc, Diablo 1 and 2, the Warcraft series, Starcraft, Need for Speed Underground,thats an awsome game, and many others.
there really is no best game because everyone has their own opinions on what a good game is.

sponkly 01-16-2004 07:31 AM

Its so hard to pick, but how about a by-genre breakdown ... then you have to pick a favorite genre .. for me it is a toss-up between RPG and simulations

Simulation: Railroad Tycoon (original Sid Meier version)
Real-time Strategy: StarCraft
First-person Deathmatch: Doom II
RPG: Original Wizardry .. although Wiz8 will overtake soon
Arcade: Ms. Pac Man (yes, I am that old), tied with Galaga

Albromor 01-16-2004 10:56 AM

Thief 1 and Thief 2. Absolutely brillant, IMO, and it has a great story line. I love RPGs nd are actually my favorite genre' but the Thief series is so unique that it stands out for me.

Hello everyone... My 1st post !!!
My favorites are Fallout 1 and 2 (too bad they were so short) : great crpgs with LOTS of humor.
Followed by the Nameless One...
I also spent hours, days, nights with Starcraft.

IGN tells me that a nintendo 64 game got a 10 out of 10. Wow, a perfect game.... according to them. Zelda may be a great game and your personal favorite, but IGN giving it a 10 means nothing, nothing at all.

Gotta toughen the new recruits up :D

Paladin2000 01-17-2004 01:02 PM

Ah I see. Just don't get too carried away then. ;)

Zuvio,

The funny thing is, according to IGN's TOP 100 games, The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time / Master Quest is only ranked at #89.

I guess they must have meant that this game is #1 for N64 but overall ranking among other platforms... *ahem* it is up you to judge accordingly. I guess each has his/her own taste or opinion.

I would agree mostly with the game reviews from Gamespot.
