FFVIII' date=' Wild Arms 3, Drakengard 1 and 2, and Wet

[/quote']

 

I hate Final Fantasy 13, its really bad when compared to the previous ones, as for Drakengard, I owned the 2nd one, but never got into it.

 

8=VIII

13=XIII

 

I was tired! and I still don't like 8.

 

Tons of Japanese games mentioned here.

 

Kids these days.... with their obscure Japanese games....

 

What they NEED to do is remake Mischief Makers for the Wii with more content. upgrades, and use of the Wiimote - shake it to make Marina shake things. Now THAT'D be a remake!

 

No joke.... but Nintendo doesn't love us that much. D:

Call of Duty - any version, they are all awesome!

I like shooter types with a ton of shooting 'n' violence. Blood is ok, but the blood in bioshock is just too much for me.

Far Cry

GTA SA

NHL 08 and on...

Star Wars Force Unleashed

Star Wars: Republic Commando

Unreal Tournament

Unreal Tournament 2004

[All games on PC

PERSONA 3: FES!!!

 

Yeah' date=' it's the shame the game (the whole franchise, really) isn't more widespread in the western world. It's a [i']phenomenal [/i]game.

 

Even though The Answer epilogue was kind of a letdown, FES made up by greatly improving The Journey.

You picked all great games, but I can't really play Age of Empires 3 on my current computer.

Although, I have never played the Earthbound and Mother series (They are the same, right); I really need to pick up a copy. Also, isn't Elite Beat Agents like Osu, or am I thinking of something else?

Favorite game of ALL TIME?

 

Yoshi's Island. SNES. Awesomest game evah.

It pushed the SNES capabilities to their limit with some ridiculously awesome gameplay. It took all the best parts of Super Mario World, but accentuated the Yoshi. It has graphics that somehow look like they were drawn by a 5 year old, but are so adorably unique, complex and fun to look at that you not only don't care, but you actually embrace the stylistic choices.

Oh, and I uphold that it had the greatest selection of bosses of any game on the system, ever. I'm not joking here.

 

Nostalgia factor puts it above Ocarina of Time for me, largely because I never owned an N64 and thus didn't play the game as a kid. As a Zelda nut in the modern day, however, I still have to admit it was quite obviously the greatest game of its time, as both a narrative and a technological marvel.

 

Aside from that, there are some good competitors in their own categories.

 

Phoenix Wright, Ace Attorney: Trials and Tribulations wins the distinction of being the greatest game I've ever played if I'm not including nostalgia as a criteria. Like the rest of the series, it has the uncanny ability to make you care about each and every character deeply, as if they were real people, even though you control very little in the game. It has an impeccable narrative, really makes you think about things, and some of the most memorable villains I've ever seen. The music is catchy, distinctive, and always has a very specific purpose. After a very short amount of time, the bgms become nearly as much a facet of the characters as their personalities are; it's always fitting, and really adds to the atmosphere.

Also, this is the only game that made me cry. Some others came close, but this is really the one that pulled it off. The combination of the attachment to the characters you'll develop, the devious plots that you have to unravel yourself, and the heartpulling music WILL invoke emotion in you, no matter how hard you try to resist it. The other games were good at this too, but Trials and Tribulations was really the absolute pinnacle. I'd recommend this to absolutely everyone who likes compelling narratives or mystery stories even a little.

 

The World Ends With You easily has the distinction of best RPG I've played in a while. It breaks from the usual mold that Eastern RPGs tend to fall into, and benefits amazingly from that. It marginalizes many of the aspects that many people find trite in the genre (random battles, fetch quests), and adds in an interesting gameplay system that takes full advantage of the DS technological assets. The story has quite a few unexpected twists in it, and though you never quite know exactly what's going on, it always makes sure to dangle a fishhook for you to make sure you are enticed to keep playing.

 

For my final selection, I'd like to nominate Mass Effect 1 & 2. Being one of the few Western-made games, and definitely the only shooting games I've ever been interested in, the Mass Effect saga seems to enjoy taking everything I love about Sci-Fi and placing it in one convenient trilogy. While the third game has yet to be made, it's one of my most anticipated sequels to come. The saga has a penchant for taking the wildly unbelievable and swashbuckling concepts, and throwing them into a word made with exquisite care and attention. Every little detail is thoroughly researched, every nook has an interesting backstory or intriguing mystery behind it; even though the game is set up to be quite linear, all the love and care that so obviously permeates every aspect of the game gives the robust illusion of ultimate freedom. Both of them are those kinds of games that despite there being relatively little to bother replaying for, you can restart it over and over again and not get bored.
