1. Twilight Princess - Left a huge mark on my recent gaming life.
2. I Wanna Be The Guy - Rediculously hard, but the sheer sense of satisfaction at it's completion is better than taking down a million noobs. (Yes, I have completed it)
3. Kirby 64 - *is still shocked at how good it is*
4. Super Ghouls and Ghosts - for the same reason as IWBTG
5. Secret of Mana - First RPG i ever played...didnt get very far though, the bosses are OP.
6. Runescape - The game that never stops giving and is actually FUN compared to some other MMOS (*coughworldofgrindcraftcough*)
7. Super Mario World - Can't beat the classics
8. Animal Crossing - ...Shut up.
9. The whole Trauma Center series - Theyre so similar, so it's difficult to choose between them...So i'll just put them all here as a blanket statement. Fun as hell and nerve wracking beyond belief.
10. Bubble Bobble - ...What needs saying?

This thread is done like once a week, but whatever

1-Prince of Persia The Sands of Time
The only game I have played that got a love story right. Plus, it's platforming is quite simply unmatched. This, coupled with two incredibley believable characters, moments that are both touching and funny still makes it the greatest experience I've ever had playing a game.

2-Portal
Portal is simply 4 hours of gaming genius. It takes a interesting game machanic and used it to create a gaming experience like no other. Not only where the puzzles interesting and enjoyable, but it also has some of best one liners I've ever heard in the game, voiced by one of my favourite characters of all time, GLaDoS. If only it could have lasted longer.

3-Psychonauts
Psychonauts has it's problems. The platforming went from muh to nearly unplayable, the camera was a jerk, the combat was irrataiting and in general, the gameplay wasn't all that great. But, no other game has made me laugh so hard. There was one point when there was liturely tears rolling down my face it was so funny. Apsolutely mind boggingly bacon lovingly brilliant.

4-Team Fortress 2
No game has got as many hours out of me as Team Fortress 2. I have been playing for nearly two years now and I'm still never bored by it. Lack of updates on the 360 is the only thing stopping this from being higher.

5-Braid
Fustration is a fickle thing. Braid is the game that will torture you with some of the most difficult and confussing puzzles I've ever come across. However, the feeling you get when you snap your fingers and say "I've got it!" Is like nothing else.

6-Shadow of the Colossus
It may be on a 7 year old console but my god, SotC is beautiful. Not just beautiful, it's epic. It's strange for me to say this but most of SotCs strengths lie in it's beauty. The Colossi are some of the best pieces of character design I've ever seen, the art direction is subtly like nothing else, and the whole thing just makes you feel...small. Climbing on the back of a Colossus is like nothing else.

7-Half-Life 2 Episode 2
I didn't like Half-Life 2 much. Maybe it's because I'm used to such short experiences when playing my games these days, but it just dragged on for me. I really didn't see what the fuss was about. It wasn't bad, just wasn't great either. Then I played Episode 2 and a finally got it. An incredible game, everything for story to gameplay is sculpted with persition and care.

8-Super Smash Bros Melee
It may be a bit button mashy but fuck Wii Sports, it's easially the best party game ever made.

9-Fable
It may not have lived up to the grand expectations but all that time Lionhead could have spent adding all the said they would was instead spent polishing and repolishing a remarkable little RPG.

10-Luigi's Mansion
Nostalgia may well play into this one, but I still love Luigi's Mansion. Charm can cover up a lot of faults.

Honourable mentions go to CoD4, Mario Galaxy, Bioshock, Mass Effect, Jazz Jack Rabbit 2, Jak & Daxter, Left 4 Dead Halo:CE and more I'll kick myself about later.

in no order:

The Halflife series: all of it. including portal.: perfect storytelling, perfect pacing, and the atmosphere in my opinion is just unparalleled. wonderful voice acting, fantastic character models. One of the most menacing universes I've ever played around in and all the sweeter for it.


The total war series: all of it: Ever since shogun I've been hooked on total war games. I only ever successfully completed shogun once because it was so damned hard. I absolutely loved the clear division between the economic and diplomatic focused campaign map and the combat focused battles. Despite each games dubious commitment to historical accuracy, (as somebody who fills their shelves with books on ancient history, Romes inaccuracy was a thing of ire for me) they were just so fun to play that it was easy to forgive. Recent games in the series, Rome and Medieval 2 have been disappointing due to weak AI and literally absent diplomacy, but I still spent way more time in them than in any other game on their years of release.

(ok, that's cheating, but each game of their respective series have offered me countless hours of gaming. I have lost count of the amount of times I've finished halflife 1, 2, and the episodes, and I've been playing the total war series for such a long time and it's really shaped my view of how FUN strategy games can be.)

Homeworld 1: If I didn't feel like it was cheating so hard, I'd just pick all the homeworld games again. 1, cataclysm, and 2, are all damned fantastic games, but I forced myself for a simple reason. Homeworld 1 done it first and done it so very right. the jawdropping visuals, and who can forget that theme music. (Agnus Dei, by Barber, if anybody was ever interested and never found out.)

KOTOR: I'd pick KOTOR 2 if they ever finished it. despite common criticisms I and many others level at Bioware games, they still somehow manage to be excellent. I practically played KOTOR 1 from start to finish without pause and I had little goosebumps at the end just from the achievement of completing something so wonderful. looking back on it now, it's full of little flaws and unsatisfying moments and black and white choices that are too stark to be believable, but at the time it was a true experience.

Team Fortress 2: This game NEVER gets old for me. I can understand why it does for others, but it's an endless well of entertainment as far as I'm concerned. Every time I feel I've reached a plateau in terms of skill, I figure out some new little trick, or discover some new fun map that shakes it all up. Mind your head. :)

Call of duty 4: ok, it's far too damned short, and I'm not interested enough in the multiplayer to sink hours into it, but whilst it lasts... damn. That's all I can say.

Max Payne 2: another game I've replayed into infinity. This game still is cinematic perfection. the cliched characters, the overly grim and dark noir setting almost farcical but once it sucks you in, it works. I genuinely cared for max and mona. Silly perhaps, but fantastic nonetheless.

Thief 2: Do I need a reason to burgle your house, taffer? Thief 1 made the stealth genre viable, if not inventing it outright. Thief 2 took out most of the zombies and let you rob people blind. The setting was gothic-steampunk awesome, and the guards obsessed with rats. Add in the various cults (mechanists or hammerites, I'm not fussed), and you will be praising the Master Builder for his judgements.

Shining force 2: this was my introduction to RPG games, and still a game I play from time-to-time. Sure it could be pretty unforgiving (that damned kraken, that damned chessboard game) but gods it was... something else at the time. The imagination and scope involved for a mere megadrive game should put most modern RPG developers to shame.

Hitman: Blood Money. Why blood money and not the others? Well, hitman one was pretty broken, and required psychic knowledge of many levels to win. That's not how I wanted my assassin game to go. Not hitman 2: gods no. the fact that simply walking close to an enemy could ruin your disguise was a little too arbitrary and random. And the Japanese levels. 'nuff said. This was like hitman turned into a dumb FPS. Not contracts? oddly enough, I feel contracts to be the second best game of the series. whilst occasionally enemies will still see through your disguise just for being closeby, I thought the level design and the generally higher production values and emphasis on not just slaughtering your way through the levels got it more right than any hitman game before it. Blood money, however, is an evolution on the same theme. everything the hitman series had gotten right in the 3 games before it is in there. My only qualm is that there is too much a 'correct' way to do the levels, and whilst I loathed hitman 2 for entire levels full of run and gun, I do feel a hitman game would benefit from a little more gunplay than is currently involved. As it stands, it is a wonderful puzzle game, but I want it to be a gloriously freeform ASSASSINATION game. Blood money gets closer to that than the others manage.

There's my list, with full justifications. :)
