Banjo Tooie is my all time favourite because it ticks every box that I can think of for a good game.

1. Fun
2. Endearing characters
3. Imaginative
4. Good level design
5. Varied gameplay
6. Humour
7. Good camera control
8. Yellow-fuckin'-shorts

Plus, I'd say it can easily take the title as best game sequel ever. The game starts with EVERYTHING from the previous title and was built on from there. Not like other games where you end the game with a million billion magical spells or super powered weapons then start the next game with absolutely nothing to your name (read: the Zelda effect).

Banjo Tooie starts with every ability from the previous game and adds in twice as many new ones including fine tuning to previous abilities. The graphics improved, the game world was bigger and more diverse and most of the characters from the previous game returned. World exploration became more rewarding as you could discover new hidden abilities i.e. the breegull bash or dragon kazooie.

Plus, it was a Rare title from the N64 era of Rare. Amongst a stellar list of titles like Jet Force Gemini, Goldeneye, Perfect Dark, Banjo Kazooie, Conkers Bad Fur Day, Donkey Kong 64, Diddy Kong Racing and Blast Corps, Banjo Tooie more than holds itself up.

Basically... Banjo Kazooie was a masterpiece and Banjo Tooie took everything from the previous game that worked and added hundreds of other things.

I could rant about this game for ages, which I kind of have done already.

Yellow for me (It's the only one I have completed, although i'm currently playing through Pokemon Black)

OT: Half Life 2, absolutely groundbreaking for it's time, still looks good 5/6 years on.
Also, Counter Strike: Source. Endless hours of fun with my friends on that... loved it to bits, biggest addiction I have ever had for a game.

 

[Someone Depressing]

Sweet Home.
Combining Survival Horror (Which was new at the time, 1989, never was tried until Alone in the Dark and Haunted House came along), Action, And the JRPG Genre was the best move Capcom made, EVER. And it trimmed down on grinding alooooot.

I've had the Reproduction Cartridge for as long as I can remember.

[King of Wei]

Romance of the Three Kingdoms VIII for the ps2. I sadly don't own it and have to go 3 hours to a friends house to play it but I can honestly say I've never had as much fun with games as I do playing that with friends. Now if only it wasn't so damn hard to find nowadays.

Fair enough, what do you think of Black so far? and yeah Half life has always been a major competitor on these kinda things XD

Red/blue.I don't really like the special edition one (whatever you call them)
like yellow ,diamond and so on.I do think the first are the best because it was the first game i ever played(ithing)
and got me into rpgs.

Turok 2

It got me into FPS. And the weapons are awesome (A weapon that preforms explosive brain surgery FTW)

Spoiler: Honorable mentions

Banjo kazooie series - BK - Awesome. BT - Awesome x2. BK:NB - Its lego with wheels and guns. YAY

Oricana of time Good game, never completed it though (forest temple + bad TV + music = scared 7 year old

Halo CE/Max Payne - I got an xbox in the first few days/weeks of release (before the price drop)
and those games blew my mind. Halo because of the sci-fi setting and graphics.
Max payne for the story and bullet time.
