My five favourite games, huh.

No More Heroes/No Mores Heroes 2: Fucking incredible game. It's a total mindfuck and an incredible parody of every western game and stereotype ever. And it works. The storyline, while fucked up, is really interesting and well-thought. Travis and the bosses are the most interesting characters I've ever met in a video game. Probably the most commercial Suda game (something the game itself is hinting at), and the most successful one too. I included NMH2 because the trailers are enough to convince me that it's going to be an even better game than the first.

Mother 3: The game's motto is probably what summarizes it best: Strange, funny, and heartrending. Emotion in video game form.

Cave Story: Awesome soundtrack, awesome characters, awesome level design, awesome plot, awesome everything. Up there with Mother 3 for the emotive implication, and right next to Megaman in term of difficulty.

Eternal Darnkess: Sanity's Requiem: It's not really the game itself that is good. No, it's more the plot, and the ambiance. It's trying everything to creep you out, to scare you, to give you nightmares. It works. The Sanity system is completely crazy and can rebalance the game's creepiness because of the absurdity of the hallucinations.

Yume Nikki: Dream Diary, a game made by some Japanese guy in RPG Maker 2003. In this game, as Madotsuki, you explore your own dreams and discover more and more about yourself. It doesn't have dialogue, and narration is limited to the instructions at the beginning. Really, really creepy. There are so much hidden things everywhere, and you can extrapolate about what caused those dreams for hours. It's the most innovative game ever made in RPG Maker 2003, and a very innovative game by itself. It's very hard to complete it if you're not patient and don't take notes, draw maps, experiment, etc.

(Games not included: Skies of Arcadia, Megaman, Iji, Ico, Shadow of the Colossus, Street Fighter, Breath of Fire, Madworld, Silent Hill, Resident Evil, and many more.)

Metroid Fusion:
I always felt Samus was destined to become something less human, and more alien. Plus the game was kickass.

Skies of Arcadia:
Great Characters. Great Airships. It's a whole other world.

Pokemon:
I like the variety of creatures, and the fact you're nurturing the creatures, rather than just destroying the creatures because they're not human.

F-Zero GX:
No weapons, just speed and driving ability.

Super Mario Galaxy:
Because it is pretty good. Plus Luigi mode.

F-Zero has always been my lover on account of how fucking fast you can go

NO ORDER:

1. Sonic Adventure 2 Battle: Never played the first one because we didn't have a dreamcast, but ohmygod I loved the gamecube version so much because it was so fun even though my friend told me a lie about the game that scarred me for life.

2. Super Smash Bros. Melee/Brawl: I exhausted the everloving shit out of Melee, and got brawl almost as soon as it came out. It's so much daisies fun and I love it to death.

3. The Sims 2: I DON'T KNOW I JUST REALLY LIKE IT. It's just fun to play god.

4. Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past: First Zelda game I played. I watched my parents play it all the daisies time on our SNES, and I loved it. I have the gameboy version and the virtual console one and I love it.

Also Four: Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask: The storyline is what really got me. This game was also much more difficult than the other games, I believe, but it's a good game nonetheless. The mask system just made it so fun.

5. Secret of Mana: My parents played this a lot when I was little, and when I finally got it on the Virtual Console, I immediately loved it. The storyline, the characters, the battle system, it's just amazing all together.

Other games that I can't put in because I can only put in five fffff: OoT, WW, Kirby and the Crystal Shards, Paper Mario series, Super Monkey Ball, Animal Crossing, Super Mario Bros. 3, Pokemon Platinum, Emerald, and FireRed, The Simpsons Hit & Run, Mario paint, Kingdom Hearts 2, Team Fortress 2 jesus christ I like too many games

In no particular order:

Shadow of the Colossus: The music is AWESOME, the game play is fun, and the whole thing just looks terrific. A lot of people say things like "Oh, no one likes this game because of the gameplay, they like it for other reasons" but I really have no idea what they are talking about because I think the gameplay is great.

Mother 3: The story was perhaps the greatest story I have ever seen in a video game. It managed to take a bunch of cliche's and make them feel fresh and new again. It was one of those stories that would have you laughing one minute and crying the next. The only thing that really bothered me about the game is that, during boss battles, half of your party (Duster and Boney) were nearly useless.

Portal: It was very well-written, has a great atmosphere, and really sucked you in. It had a great... well, "story" doesn't seem like quite the right word for it, but it's the best word I can think of. The only thing about it I despise is the whole "cake is a lie" fad it started.

Psychonauts: Obviously, this is here mostly for it's story, but honestly I thought the gameplay was pretty good too. I mean, it wasn't the best, but it was fun.

Banjo-Tooie: Okay, this one is probably mostly here due to nostalgia, but whatever, I can still play it today and enjoy it. At least, I could, if all my N64 controllers weren't shit.


Honestly, if given more time to think about this list, I would probably switch Psychonuats and Banjo-Tooie out with other games that I somehow forgot, as, although I liked those games, there are probably others I like more that I just can't think of for some reason.

I think setting and environment are the words you might be looking for.

argh this is hard. If they're in the same series is it ok if I do like, the series?

5. Trauma Center (Wii) series: Very good fun, a nice challenge but not too hard or easy. Co-op mode in the second game is very good.

4. Metal Gear Solid 2 & 3: First game for PS2 we got (the PS2 was a free gift and even though we've had it for like 2 years we hardly go on it apart for MGS as we only have like 3 games anyway but) and I loved it. From the fact you could go in stealthily or guns blazing aswell as having all the cool gadgets and camo it was brilliant.

3. LoZ series: No explanation really, very good game.

2. Super Smash Bros. Melee/Brawl: Loads of characters, game modes and styles to play. I have alot of pop flyin' memories with my friends playing this game at sleepovers etc.

1. Pokemon series: Um this isn't really the best but from number 4 onwards they're all sort of equal as they're all really good so this just ended up here haha.

EDIT: Le Great Handsome Oppressor, I think I like you bro.

Best games... blargh, trying to chose is so unfair D:

1. Cave Story
Yeah, I say this game over and over, and that's just because it is what it is. No matter how I chuck it, out of the two thousand plus videogames I've played, this continues to stand out by a wide margin as the best videogame I've ever played. Nothing even compares.

2. Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past
Okay I'll admit it, I wanted to put Link's Awakening here, almost purely for the Ballad of the Wind Fish. Wow, both games were just so amazing. A part of me feels dirty for listing this game, considering nearly every videogame list ever puts it right at the top, and I'd love to offer new and different insight. But I just can't. This game truly deserves to be in the top of any best videogame list. It's just so much fun, that I can and have played it over and over.

3. Katamari Damacy
Finally something different. And how different it is. Arcade-style gameplay at it's best. I don't really care which of the Katamari games we are talking about, all of them have the same charm... the same sorta charm that games like Pac-Man and such in the arcades had, so long ago. It just makes you wanna keep playing over and over. The first really strong game in the arcade style in so many years, it's just wonderful.

4. Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars
Okay now the gloves are off. This game has probably never graced a top 10 list ever. Probably not even a top 50 list. In fact, most people seem to hate it. But it's a game I've played over and over, and I keep finding myself wanting to play it again, even many years later. This is my giant middle finger to every other person out there who's made a top game list. Fuck you, I can have my favorites too.

5. Phoenix Wright (any game in the series)
Okay fine, here's another nice big fuck you. There was a war going on over what game would take the fifth slot. Think the Ultimate Showdown of Ultimate Destiny sorta shit going on. Mario 3, Mario World, Goldeneye, Banjo-Kazooie, Super Metroid, Chrono Trigger, Eternal Darkness, Ocarina of Time, and many more were beating the ever living SHIT out of each other in order to claim this spot. But I had to throw the trophy to Phoenix Wright. Who would have ever thought that a videogame could hold me so inthralled into it's story, like a good book, making me crawl up in a chair all day long, desperate to find out where the story will go next. Here's to you, best writing in a videogame ever.

Karilyn you are aware that it is the Ace Attorney series, and Pheonix Wright is is the subtitle, right?

They've dropped Apollo Justice like a hot brick though.

Plus Edgeworth's game is going to be called 'Perfect Prosecutor'.

I love all of these games equally, so they're in no order:

Tales of Symphonia
The story in this game was the first truly dramatic story I ever saw (I was around 13 or so), and it blew me away. I actually was a bit confused the first time around because there was so much to take in that I had to replay this game several times to fully get the plot. Derp.
But the gameplay is the biggest thing I love about TOS; Colette was my favorite because of her angel attacks later in the game.

Portal
I don't play PC games very much, but Portal is really making me want to play them more often. I'm a huge fan of puzzle games, and this one stumps me so much.
Unfortunately, this game sometimes lags horribly on my computer, so playing it gets difficult sometimes.

Doom (1&2)
I couldn't pick either one since both are almost identical anyway.
These two games are some of the first games I ever played. (I was around 4 years old I'm dead serious)
The reasons I love these games are the same as everyone else's so I'm not gonna list them. (I'm lazy lol)

Sonic 3
Even though I have more nostalgia for Sonic 2, I just find 3 to be an overall better experience. I've always loved the stages and how colorful and varied they are. The fact that there were different routes to take in each zone kept the game from getting repetitive.

The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess
TP wasn't my first Zelda game, but it was the one that made me fall in love with the series. I've replayed this game so much that now I'm actually kind of tired of it, but it still holds a place in my heart.


So, yeah.

I am aware.

I just don't give a flying fuck.

Fuck I never put pokemon in my list. ;-;

I love Pokemon.
