oo top ten games..well here goes

1. Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time/Master Quest(N64/GCN) purely one of those all time classics which i will probably enjoy for many years to come

2. Super Metroid(SNES) At the time of the release of this..the idea of a female protagonist was not common, but metroid was one of the few at the time that supported it..and it worked well..Super Metroid..arguably the best of the lot was a great game and was always one which i wanted to try to complete in the fastest time possible.

3. Simon the Sorcerer 1 + 2(PC) this was good and some of the small jokes in it where funny..one series of point-and-click games that i found really worth the money

4. Final Fantasy i couldn't think of which one was more better for me so in all the series has had its ups and downs, but in all the games have been really good and have been a huge addition to the RPG genre

5. Goldeneye(N64) This caused hours upon hours of multiplayer matches with friends. great game and can be replayed many times

6. Streets of Rage (Megadrive) this was great at the time, this sidescroller was a huge hit for me and even though i never did get the third one, it was still good to play the first two every now and then

7.Resident Evil though i only got into it in more recent years, the series is one of those that was thoroughly enjoyable, but at the same time during the first one or two in the series..the door opening animation got on your nerves

8. Super Smash Brothers Melee(GCN)multiplayer mayhem basically..this caused me to be up for hours trying to get everyone completed on very hard mode on arcade all the time..and you can't go wrong with a multiplayer match at all.

9. Super Mario brothers 3(SNES) it was far better than the second one which, never really interested me as much. The lost chapters which was only released here on the All Stars Cartridge was a good game to play and the secrets to warp to the next chapters where always good to look for

10. Age of Empires(PC) one of the many RTS games i now own and probably the first i played..great idea and gameplay was pretty good.

Games worth mentioning:

Worms
Sonic the Hedgehog
Mario Kart
Soul Calibur
Fire Emblem
 
Fire Emblem (GBA)
I prefer this one to the other incarnations, probably because I do like portable gaming much more than console gaming.

Lylat Wars (N64)
I especially didn't enjoy the others as much, but hopefully I will enjoy the new one. I think I am allowed to like one game which everyone else wouldn't even consider, and this is it.

Perfect Dark(N64)
I enjoyed Goldeneye but I though this game improved on some of the faults, especially in the multiplayer. I also found that the single player was a lot harder wo obtain the cheats with. I also preferred the sci fi theme, although I didn't much appreciate the humour ( I wanted to kill Elivis just as much as Natalia on the Jungle level)

Paradroid(C64)
Old game, but a classic and held in high reagard among the retro gamers. There is a newer 3D version on the net, though I havn't tried it myself yet.

Macross II(ARC)
I always start this up every now and again and try and improve. Essentially you have to reach the end of the level with a high score in order to proceed to the next, meaning that if you die you are able to carry on with the level but at a disadvantage that you havn't got the weapons upgrades. It doesn't really have a lot in common with the series, just a side scrolling shooter.

Super Smash Bros. Melee (GC)
I should really put both, but I won't. There is nothing like beating up an oversized gorilla monkey wearing neck tie with a little kick from an electric rat. Though somehow I always lose to my brothers, I am just glad that they have taken out the ice climbers for the next game.
I have been a little dissapointed in the GC games, if only they were all like this.

Half Life 2(PC)
I bought it about this time last year, and havn't even finished it yet. But I do like the creation of atmosphere on the levels I have played. And also, who can't like running around shooting stuff.

Civilization III
I can't even remember the version I like. I am not really a fan of IV as it takes too long to play.

Star Trek: Elite Force(PC)
The single player isn't worth much but it still has a great online community to play multiplayer with.

Hidden and Dangerous Deluxe(PC)
I bought this game some time ago, since then it has been released as a free legal download (PM me if you would like a link or google, it is very much legal but I am unsure as to what this forums policy is on such things). Unfortunatley, H&D2 uses Starforce protection meaning I probably won't go neither the thing.

Its in some ways similar to the Conlfict games, you control a 4 man SAS team as they perform missions. It is however much less arcadeyy in feel. You must decide which members you are going to take and even the weapons, always baring in mind that you can always frisk dead enemy for their weapons and the fact that you have a weight restriction on how much you can air drop into enemy lines.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

There we have a variety of games I enjoy on numerous platforms. I used to be a big gamer and am still an active member on the CVG (Computer and Video Games) forums, though it seems these days I have little time for gaming. I have never owned a playstation or XBox though I do appreciate that there are some great games on these platforms. I have played multiplayer Halo/Halo2 and enjoyed them immensly.

I doubt I've got 10 :?
The games I play frequently, rather than have fond memories of are:

1/. LOZ: Ocarina of Time & Master Quest.
2/. Animal Crossing.
3/. Battle Houshin (I don't like Mystic Heroes, I like Battle Houshin ^__^)
4/. LOZ: Wind Waker.
5/. Phantasy Star Online.
6/. Doushin the Giant.
7/. Pikmin 2.

I still have fond memories of Sonic the Hedgehog, but I don't like modern Sonic games and the old ones don't have the same appeal anymore, so I don't play them.
I still love GB & GBA Pokemon games but don't play anymore.

It's hard to define all the games I've played into a top 10 - but I'll try :wink:

1] Final Fantasy VIII (PS1)
Despite how mainstream this is, it mixes fantasy with technology and is a classic example on how a RPG should be done. The ending was great too, though people will always argue the subtle facts that IS there.

2] Streets of Rage 1,2,3 (Megadrive)
Nothing can get better than beating up thugs to classic dance music. WIN.

3] Soul Calibur (Dreamcast)
Graphically years ahead and balanced characters! What more could one want? Oh yes, Cassandra isn't in this one but it's still good! :(

4] Resident Evil 2 (PS1)
Forever etched into my nostalgic memories, I took a few days off school to play this. ClaireA/LeonB is the better 'story'! Instant classic!

5] Shenmue 1 & 2 (Dreamcast/Xbox)
The story of revenge makes Ryo chat up sea men in Yokosuka. "Where can I find sailors?" Why in the foreign bar of course!

6] Culdcept (PS2)
What's this game? US/Japan release only and is based off a manga of the same name. This game is addictive. Think Monopoly spliced with YuGiOh and you'd get something like this. Computer cheats!!

7] Thunder Force IV (Megadrive)
My favourite shooter ever. It's even better than Gradius and R-Types in my opinion.

8] Street Figher Alpha 3 (Dreamcast)
GO FOR BROKE! The best street fighter game with the best characters. End of story.

9] Clock Tower 3 (PS2)
Not the greatest game ever made but the story was horror and sailor moon at the same time. As usual with these sorts of games comes the disturbing themes. :D

10] Sonic 3 & Knuckles (Megadrive)
I spent many hours and did all 14 saves with all the emeralds. I had too much time. The best Sonic game!

I have lots of games I like but I decided to go for more range than all RPGs. Thankfully not a FPS or Nintendo game in sight. :D
________
Smoking Kills
 
1) Marvel VS Capcom 2 [XBOX/DC]
The ultimate cross-over, easily the best fighting game ever made.

2) Power Stone 2 [DC]
3D free roaming fight game, the ultimate awesomeness.

Terror Cubed. The best game remake I've ever seen.

4) Jojo's Bizzare Adventure [DC]
The manga finally made into an awesome fighting game by Capcom. <3

5) Pokémon Fire Red/Leaf Green [GBA]
Again, one of the best game remakes I've ever seen.

6) Super Smash Brothers Melee [GC]
Smash fest with Nintendo All-Stars! Enough has been said.

7) Final Fantasy: VII [PS]
The best game of the series, beautiful music, beautiful storyline, beautiful game.

8) Harvest Moon: Friends of Mineral town [GBA]
A simply fantastic game, great RPG farming game. Natsume ftw.

9) Pikmin [GC]
Addictive simple game from the master, Shigeru Miyamoto.

10) Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask [N64/GC]
I always liked it more to Ocarina of Time, major difference in gameplay element.
