10 best video games ever!

Post by maverick8088 »

IYHO, What are the ten best computer/video games you've ever played? What platforms were they? Here's mine:

10. Dark Forces(pc)
9. Soul Caliber (arcade)
8. Super Mario Bros. (Nintendo)
7. Jedi Knight: Jedi Acadamy
6. Kotor2 (Xbox)
5. Dark Forces II:Jedi Knight (PC)
4. Starcraft
3. Kotor1 (Xbox)
2. Halo2 (Xbox)
1. Halo:CE (Xbox)
They are, in fact, expressions inspired by demons and they go forth to the kings of the entire inhabited earth to gather them together to the war of the great day of God the Almighty. And they gathered them together to the place that is called in Hebrew Har-Maged'on - Revelations 16:14,16

I don't know how many times I've seen threads like this, which never end happy as it is hard enough for a single person to decide his 10 favourite, let alone for multiple persons to agree.

I say that Big Rigs: Over the Road Racing is the best, period, and nothing else.

I will have to think about the other 9, but the number 1 game is without a doubt: Tetris

Haha I agree, but for the list I dont agree with Halo 2 being second. I love the game but onlythe online feature, the story was lacking for me. In fact before I got live I had only played it a couple times and that was to finish the Campagn. If I wanted to play multiplayer at a buddys house we would set up a system link and play Halo CE not Halo 2.

LoL Hey there fellow gamers! :D

After looking at the list I've made and thought of a couple (for now)

10. Mario Kart (You pick)
9. Tetris (Good 'ol Gameboy)
8. ES III: Morrowind (Nothing but PC Baby! :) )
7. LOZ: Orcania of Time (N64 or even GC) {TRY THE MASTER MODE! :) }
6. Sorry, but it's the classic: DOOM! (PC)
5. Resident Evil 4 (GC, not that CRAPPY PS2 version ;p)
4. Goldeneye (N64)
3. Wild Metal Country (PC)
2. Final Fantasy THREE!!!! (SNES)
1. Scorched Earth (PC) OF COURSE, Grimar, how could I FORGET that game! :D

P.S.: For those of you who have NO idea about Wild Metal Country, you can try it out as MANY times as you want, FOR FREE, and download it online! If you love the classic Scorched Earth/Tank Wars/or any other knock-off, then you're gonna love this game. :D

1. Final Fantasy VII (most emotional game of all time, excellent story, well developed characters, creative battle system, Sephiroth, Aeris...)
2. Baldur's Gate 2 (Irenicus is PERFECT, best dialogue in any game, ever, amazing battle system, perfect graphics, engaging storyline, unbelievable freedom)
3. Morrowind (most open-ended game possible while retaining play value, which it definitely had, amazing graphics, several books worth of dialogue, some literally in books, very customable characters, but unfortunately incredibly unbalanced and repetitious)
4. Starcraft (best rts game, most balanced rts game, amazing story, great editor for its time, best strategy interface)
5. Zelda: A Link to the Past (no game captures the feel of medieval fantasy quite like this game, nor that of the RPG feel without ruining the action through making it an actual RPG)
6. Goldeneye (way ahead of its time, best first person shooter, nearly perfect in all respects)
7. Doom 2 (pure action, pure fun, pure evil)
8. Mario Kart (homing turtle shells. nuff said)
9. Halo 2 (Halo 1 but improved in every way)
10. Doom 3 (no game can scare me like this one, and no story can intrigue me quite as much)

KOTOR and KOTOR 2 would be in there probably, but I haven't completed either yet. Same goes for Neverwinter Nights and Baldur's Gate 2: Throne of Bhaal. As for Baldur's Gate 1, with the TuTu mod it would deserve a spot in there, but as is it just doesn't cut it.

I am old school, ever since I started playing drums, video games are no longer a concern, that and they cost a lot of money. However my favorites used to be Street fighter II and mortal Kombat. I also loved classic Nintendo. Games like contra and all the super Mario brothers games. All classics.
