Your best game ever?

Mine would be Tekken 3 on the PSX. Played it for weeks.

I played Bugs Life on PS1 for ages, loved every minute and eventually finished it. Only one I ever did I think! LOL

Interesting choice. Haven't played that in years.

Curse of Monkey Island. It has the best graphics i have seen (hand-drawn. Or at least the most interesting) and has some great puzzles and makes you laugh like crazy. Other top titles though include the old Sonics (before sonic went 3D with Sonic 2 being the best), Zelda (Ocarina of Time and Twilight Princess. Bits of Wind Waker let it down) and anything made by naughtydoy and insomniac. That includes Jak and Daxter, Crash Bandicoot (again, before he went downhill) and Ratchet and Clank.

Can't wait to get back here after my exams, though games are going to stop me with this generation being all about the online. Resistance: Fall of Man, Medal of Honor: Airborne (PS3) and Medal of Honor Heroes (PSP) will no doubt take my time up. Although nothnig beats the simplicity of Sonic, and the fun-ness of Monkey Island, for pure gaming, fast and frantic it is online all the way. Can't wait for a PS3 now. Though MOH: Heroes has kept me occupied for 10 days out of 3 months (240 hours then).

Great choices, i love the PSone crash and spyro games, jak and daxter and ratchet and clank. The only 3D sonic i liked was heroes. Recently got zelda wind waker and twilight princess on my gamecube, should really play them more to be honest.

Wind Waker is great until you get to the Triforce shards. A terrible, terrible part of the game. Twilight Princess was great, extremely good but didnt live up to expectations, and didnt have the nostalgity of Ocarina of Time.

Sonic 3D involves no skill. rubbish

yeah the sonic adventure 2 on the gamecube was pretty rubbish

I hated those but they were a step in the right direction for 3D sonic atleast. It wasn't quite as fast and required more buttons than forward and jump, so you needed more than a brain cell.

well i wonder what the next-gen versions are like

Abysmal apparantly. So bad and not at all like was promised. The Wii version is meant to be the best but i don't like thelook of it. I fact, the Wii in general is getting worse and worse. I have 4 games and only want 1 coming out that i know of (brawl).

damn, and i thought there was hope

Yeah, like i did when i heard about Sonic heroes. SEGA can't even seem to get it right in 2D now (sonic rush...). At least Lara Croft has had a makeover and is back on form. One of the best ps2 games she was in

I guess mines would be Front Mission 3 for the PlayStation. Never knew I had a thing for turn-based strategy + mechs.

Never heard of that game, though that's probably because i hate strategy games.

It's a series by Squaresoft.

I'm useless at real time strategy.

Didn't think Squaresoft would be a company to do a strategy game.

Well I think the first game they made was Rad Racer for the NES, and there's been the likes of Chocobo Racing for PS.

Tobal No. 1 and 2, Ehrgeiz and Bushido Blade covers fighting.

There's also Final Fantasy Tactics as well.

Most of these games aren't available here though.

And there's Einhander, but it was only released in the US

Erm....a toss up between Chuckie Egg and Sensible Soccer for me!

Final Fantasy VII for far too many reasons to list - played through it several times, and even bought the soundtrack, which oddly comes on 4 discs whilst the game is on 3...

Flashback on the Mega-Drive is my favourite 'oldie' from the Mega-Drive era; cel-shaded action/adventure loveliness that was sort of a semi-sequel to Another World - tough but brilliant.

Much better than Another World too. Great graphics Another World but fundamentally *Bad Word* gameplay, like a movie rather than a game. Flashback was great, better story and bloody hard!

I bet millions of people say this is their best lol.

I have Final Fantasy X which is great for my first Final Fantasy, though i hate the fact that you have to keep watching cutscenes everytime you die (with hammy voice acting). Plus, the battles are too freaking long. Gorgeus graphics though.

P.S. why did it need three discs?

Oh, loads.

Elite (BBC), Chuckie Egg (BBC)(I have a Direct X version somewhere that's ace), Paradroid (Commie 64), Sensible World of Soccer (Amiga), Any of the GTA series (Amiga, PC)(except GTA2 and GTA: London), the early Infocom adventures (Commie 64), most of the Epyx 'Games' series (Commie 64), Interstate '76 (PC), Baldur's Gate (PC), Championship/Football Manager Amiga/PC) and a bucket load of First Person Shooters (PC).

That's a lot. I love First-Person Shooters (Timesplitters 2 and 3 are excellent, King Kong was brilliant especially since it was a moviet tie-in). But that can cause alot of generic shooters, like Area 51.
