Depends on whether you mean PC game or console game or board game. If left to choose amongst all of them, I'd probably go with a board game named Advanced Civilization by Avalon Hill. If you mean PC game, I'd probably say Master of Magic.

 

Street Fighter II Turbo on the SNES.

Best game ever!

 

My favourite game i have played regularly was C&C Generals. I look back wondering how i managed to finish school and get through uni.

 

Jagged Alliance 2. Hands down. One of the only games I have ever played that still draws me back every so often. Its one of the few games that is, in my opinion, a relatively unique IP.

 

The best game I ever played is Oblivion.

But if I were to list a top 5 it would be

Oblivion
Crysis
Operation Flashpoint, new one comes out tommorow
Hitman 2 Silent Assasin
Splinter Cell

 

Civilization on Amiga 600

 

Desert Strike. Oh and Jungle Strike.

 

Warhawk on the PS3

 

I used to play that but stopped after getting bored of it. It was just the same old thing over and over. I played as china, always ended up getting 10,000 overlord tanks, 5 nukes etc. and that = win *yawn*

I've played a range of games throughout my life, few favourites but in different categories.

Cannon Fodder - Grew up loving this
Quake3 - Endless fun, and the skill of some people is admirable
RTCW \ RTCW:ET - Played this for 2-3 yrs with a load of mates, amazing competition game w/ teamplay
Lineage2 - Played this for 2 years or so, again can be amazingly funny with friends, but very time consuming!
MGS Series - Always loved the storyline and gameplay

I'm more of a multiplayer person as you may tell

 

Old school game, gotta be The Rats on the Spectrum (still play it now )

Failing that, X-Com, Terror From The Deep. Had me playing it for yonks when I should have been out being sporty and getting a tan

 

Funny isn't it.
Your favorite game is only your favorite until the next one comes along.

Not so long ago, it used to be something on the ZX Spectrum (possibly Shadowfire, or Head over Heels, or the Great Escape) which is now the most annoying thing in the universe - rubbish graphics, horrible colours, hateful music.

My contender is probably Metal Gear Solid 3 on the Playstation.

But I suppose it depends on my mood.
Sometimes I want something challenging like Civilization or Rome Total War.

Othertimes I just want to kill stuff like Modern Warfare or Giants.

 

I wouldn't have let you get that far

It was great fun, get two mqtes for a 3v3 battle. The only game i really got into other than football games. Only reason i stopped was it became impossible to get a game going!

 

DOOM!!

 

Bounder on the C64
Hyper Sports in the arcade, and on the C64
Arkanoid (ST)
Utopia (ST)
Silent Hill (PS)
Resident Evil (PS)
Oddworld (PS)
Half-Life (PC)
Bioshock (PC)
Portal (PC)

And the absolute daddy of them all (or mummy!) Tomb Raider - all of them except TAOD (which was absolute ****e)

 

Unreal.

 

Final Fantasy 7

 

Hmm, well I loved (played it to death) Jagged Alliance, but wasn't so keen on JA2. Wasn't it partial real time rather than fully turn based?

As for my all time favortite game, I'm not sure I could name a single one as some of they were great for very different reasons (ie single / multiplayer). Also, the platform the game was on also make a difference.

Some of my all time favorites would be :-

The Bards Tale (Amstrad CPC)

Dune 2 (Single Player PC) - oh and I guess every variant thereafter by Westwood games.

Diablo 2 (Single & Battlenet realms multiplay)

Quake 2 DM/CTF (Online Multiplayer) - Some of the most enjoyable times I ever spent online, especially when playing as a clan in a league.

Action Quake 2 / Counterstrike - Online multiplayer.

And I suppose the best till last... Fallout 1,2 & 3. Despite loving 3 and buying most of the expansions, I still think I enjoyed 1 & 2 more. I thinkt the old quasi 3d isometric view was more immersive than the first person of FO3.

Some of the above games have taken up silly amounts of my time in the past, ahh fond memories.

 

What a quality game that was
