AWKWARD ZOMBIE

Still, those offshoots pale in comparison to the original 2.

I still get shivers at the intro to BG2

I can't really put them in an order.

Earthbound and Mother 3
Super Smash Bros. Melee
Final Fantasy 7
Half-Life 2
Warcraft Series (including WoW)

You mean "Ah the child of Bhaal has awoken." or "You spent your youth in the library fortress of Candlekeep..."?

I'm late to this thread but seriously, I love you all for having such good taste in games. I only read the first couple pages, but if you listed any of the following games as your favourite:

Killer 7
No More Heroes
Any Pokemon
Any Zelda (especially Majora's Mask)
MGS3
SSB
L4D
TF2
....screw that, any Valve game
Phoenix Wright
Okami

I just want to say that I love you.
I personally cannot choose my top five favourite games, by the way, and I have more favourites than that.

I completely forgot about the Phoenix Wright series. I was in love with those games when I still owned a Nintendo DS and I spent way to much time playing them. I randomly feel the urge to yell "Objection" from time to time.

Oh, that's a tough one.


Pokemon Blue
Super Smash Bros.
Resident Evil 4
The Elder Scrolls: Oblivion
007: Goldeneye (so much multiplayer fun ; ~; )

Hmm.

Final Fantasy series (VI and IX being my favourite)
Earthbound
Doom II
Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time
Pokemon Gold/Silver

Ouch, this will involve making choices, won't it?

5- Ace Combat 5 - A quality semi-realistic combat flight simulator with colorful characters and a riveting storyline? Hell yes. Plus, there's something awesome about the fact that the main cast is simultaneously thought of as angels of death and demons of war.

4- Star Wars Battlefront II - By any stretch of the imagination, this game is not particularly superior to the other shooters out there, and it doesn't belong on a top 5 list. Nevertheless, for some reason this game has stuck to me, and I simply don't get tired of it. Maybe it's the fact that I get to be a destroyer droid and blow away enemies as an invincible god of the battlefield, or maybe it's the fast-paced dogfighting IN SPACE. Whatever it is, it's a game I keep returning to.

3- Shadow of the Colossus - Dude. Duuuuuude. Duuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuude. You killed mountains. You climbed living buildings and then killed them with NOT a giant buster sword, but a normal sized sword. For me, this game redefined the word "epic".

2- Legend of Zelda: Oracle of Seasons/Oracle of Ages - Oracle of Seasons was my first Zelda game, and ever since, I've fallen in love. To be fair, I haven't beaten a fair amount of the series, but it's high on my video game to-do list and I will always name LoZ as my favorite series because of it.

1- Legend of Legaia - Like #2, this game introduced me to something new. However, unlike the the Oracle games, Legaia didn't introduce me to a series; Legend of Legaia introduced me to video games.

At first, I was going to say that it introduced me to RPGs, which is true enough, and it is probably why I like RPGs a lot, but LoL was the first game I ever owned, and I don't think I would have even gotten into playing video games if it weren't for it. The thing is, no one else in my family plays video games (except my brother, but he picked it up from me), so I had a late start.

Sure, it has it's flaws, and plenty of them, but nonetheless, the epic storyline, the unconventional fantasy setting, and the clever combat system all made me step back and say, "Whoa, is this what video games are like? I've been missing out!" Now, ten years later, I regularly fish at the bargain bin in the local GameStop, play Rock Band with my friends on a normal basis, and a drawer in my living room is filled with PS2 games.

Sorry for the long explanation on that last one. When I thought of Legend of Legaia, I realized its influence on me, and my hands just started moving on their own. It's not my fault, I swear.

Y--You complete me...;_;

Hmm, my top five favorites? Let's see...

1) Okami (PS2 & Wii)
2) Legend of Zelda: Wind Waker (GC)
3) Final Fantasy IX (PS1) (My favorite FF... >_> What?)
4) All of the GB, GBA, and DS Pokemon games (Like Yellow, Blue, Red, so on and so forth...)
5) Final Fantasy VI (Second favorite FF... FFVII is third. XD)

So, umm... yeah. That's my top five.

Also, hello everyone! I think you guys can tell I'm a bit new here; but I'm a forum newbie. Thought you guys should know. :B

Dohohohohohohoho

Haha, yeah, I kind of am. XD

Oh, and I forgot to put that I'm actually not a forum newbie... Guess I was typing too fast and forgot the word. Oops. XD

Thanks for that link though. :B

Is stun gun effective in the fight?

5. Portal
(baa I'm a sheep)

4. Persona 3
(Despite it's just a dating sim disguised as an RPG)

3. Disgaea 1 and 2
(Just ... one ... more ... item to level ...)

2. NetHack
(Except I'm weak and I play the SlashEm build)

1. Zork: Nemesis
(!!!!!)

Hrm... This'll be tricky. Got loads of favourites... And some are only my favourites when I have the right amount of people to play them. Erm...

5. Mystical Ninja Starring Goemon - First game I ever completed. Funny, bizarre, hooked me in seconds. I loved the soundtrack and the swap between normal and robot boss battles. Ah, memories.

4. Skies of Arcadia - My first real experience with an RPG. I got really close to completion, and then didn't touch it again for ages. I might still go back at some point, but I worry that my memories will be tarnished by any flaws I might find >_<

3. Kung Fu Chaos - Ninjas with rubber rings belly-bashing one another off of a giant floating iceberg. Need I say more? Had some really funny moments with the game, like on the Jurassic Park-esque scene, where you're going down the river on the raft, and a low hanging vine tries to knock off most of the players. I was playing with 3 of my friends, and I was the only person to survive the vine. I was laughing really hard and got my character to do a taunt. As soon as the taunt ended, the dinosaur, who I'd entirely forgotten about, clamped it's jaws down on the part of the raft I was standing on. I lost the game from laughing so hard. Fun times.

2. Tales of Symphonia - I'm still working towards completion with it. Kept getting a bit of the way through it and then forgetting about it for ages. Then when I returned, I felt obligated to restart it in case I'd forgotten any of the plot. After this happened 3 times, I lost the case for 2 years. Really glad to have found it again.

1. Wario Ware Inc. (The series) - Never has picking someones nose been so much fun. Played em all, the original, Mega Party Games for the GC (remake), Touched, Twisted and Smooth Moves. Rhythm Paradise could MAYBE be included here since it's not entirely disimilar. Wacky little puzzler, confused the hell out of most of my friends who tend to stick to the more mainstream games.

Special mentions: Get Force Gemini (N64), Silicon Valley (N64), Portal (PC), Left 4 Dead 1 and 2 (Xbox 360 (I'm sorry >_<)), Disgaea: Hour/Afternoon of Darkness (PS2/PSP), Power Stones 2/Collections (Dreamcast/PSP), LittleBigPlanet (PS3), Snowboard Kids (N64), Super Mario Galaxy (Wii), Cockfighting Society (GB to GC to DS), World of Warcraft (PC), Grandia II (Dreamcast). Oh, and of course, Super Smash Bros., Melee and Brawl (N64/GC/Wii).
