Hi to all,

I started out in the gaming world with the lovely game called 'Starsiege' I've played that game since 2000, I STILL love that game.

My all time console game has got to be Halo2, it is the Best I have played so far.
I haven't gotten around to getting my xbox consoles online YET. someday maybe I will.
Who knows? One thing at a time.

hrm. either monster rancher or diablo 2.

DrSpike · November 2, 2009, 14:08

It depends on my mood, between Civ (2 or 4), Warcraft 3, Quake 3, or Guild Wars, all the finest expositions of their respective genres.

If it was just SP then it's Civ.

Guynemer · November 2, 2009, 21:14

Civ 4, SMAC, Grim Fandango, Star Control 2, and Red Baron would all be candidates.

Baldur's Gate 2

EPW · November 2, 2009, 23:53

Is it really wise to give the bot marketing info?

ColdWizard · November 3, 2009, 11:34

If it makes Baldur's Gate 3, then yes.

It is a difficult question. My favorite rpg is Final Fantasy VI, favorite adventure is the legend of Zelda - A Link to the Past, favorite turnbased strategy civ2 (even if i do play civ4 more these days), favorite realtime strategy is Europa Universalis II (even if its feel is very turnbased), and favorite point 'n' click is Monkey Island 2. However, if i would have to go with just one game, i think it would have to be good old Super Mario World for the snes. This game is the pinnacle of the Mario-series, and it is just so easy to pick up and play and have fun with at all times. I also loved how the map worked by having large parts of the game only playable after uncovering the various secrets in the levels. The only sad part about super mario world is that there was no real sequel. Well, untill now that is. Hopefully New Super Mario Bros for the Wii can be just that - the real Super Mario Bros 5 that we (or at least I) have been waiting for since 91.

Super Metroid. Honorable mentions to Final Fantasy Tactics, Civ 4: BtS, Super Mario World and 64, REmake, LoZ:LttP, Doom 2, and Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 2.

Seems to spark discussion and there aren't any links that I've seen so far, so... my fav has to be Civ4. Just because it has sucked more of my life than any other game out there, so there has to be something that keeps bringing me back.

Honorable mention though to Final Fantasy 6. Doesn't have near the replay value of Civ4 (for obvious reasons) but I remember my time with it with fondness.

Garth Vader · November 3, 2009, 15:49

Moo2, with Moo a close second.

I will give an honorable mention to VGA planets, which was PBEM only and 11 players, so it was incredibly difficult to get a really good game going. Games usually lasted like 7 months so it's tough finding dedicated players for that long! But I have some of my best gaming memories from that.

Skanky Burns · November 3, 2009, 17:13

Its a three-way split between Thief, Civ and XCom.

Tuberski · November 5, 2009, 11:49

Master of Magic.

I still play it 15 years later.

ACK!

Whoha · November 8, 2009, 00:35

Goldeneye, Starcraft, Civ2, and Starsiege: Tribes would be my candidates.

Grandpa Troll · November 8, 2009, 18:18

Call To Power

Ages of Empire II:The Conquerors

Command and Conquer:Generals:Zero Hour

MrFun · November 11, 2009, 11:32

Back in the good old days - Final Fantasy III (known as Final Fantasy VI in Japan).

Much more recently - Europa Universalis Nomine on PC.

MrFun · November 11, 2009, 11:37

Oh, I also want to mention that World of Warcraft is another one of my all-time favorites.

Ben Kenobi · November 11, 2009, 23:35

Civ 2 which is why I ended up here.

Other honourable mentions:

HOMM2, Victoria, Warcraft 2, Diablo 2.

Protra3211 · November 12, 2009, 23:58

Call to Power 2 I still play it least once a month.Hearts of Iron 2 Doomsday.Mods have done wonders to keep it intresting.

Quillan · November 16, 2009, 16:40

Deus Ex, with X-Com and Thief very close behind.

Zero Hour is my favorite C&C. Rise of the Reds is a mod for it that is currently under development. When completed, it's supposed to include EU and Russian factions, which would be a pretty cool way to extend the life of the game. Right now it's still a good way from being complete.

Ever play Age of Empires III?

Yes

I play more AOEII: The Conquerors with the Maximus 2.0 AI and Modded maps than AOE II but have the pack with all games of AOE III in it and do enjoy it.

Julian Delphiki · December 7, 2009, 01:49

Panty Raider's up there, as is Magna *** Laude. It's hard for me to go a week without playing at least a round of Are You Smarter Than A Fifth Grader or the Konami American idol game. It will either get you laid or get you laid, there's no other option.
