Twisted Metal 2. I have all of them (except head-on and three) but I still play the second. I just love the game even though it doesn't have the best graphics. I love it.
Twisted 2 for the win!!!! Go Spectre and Warthog, pah to the graphics I say. The gameplay and level design was awesome. Antarticaaarrrgh!!!!
I was always more a Thumper/Mr. Grimm guy with a dash of Grasshopper thrown in. The level design was BRILLIANT...from the hellishly frustrating New York to the outrageously hectic Holland. If people continue with interesting level design it won't matter about graphics. And as a final testament to how much I love TM2... I beat with every character and wrote down every code...yes I was that obsessed.

Even 2-D games are really fun. Take for example Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island. This game was brilliant despite being two dimensional due to the fantastic colouring (all very bright). Furthermore it had brilliant (in my opinion) boss fights. Games seem to be missing these two things and developers are investing more money and time into Graphics.

Throw off the reigns of next gen graphic oppressors and return to the promised land of brilliant gameplay!

Red Alert 2 - Yeah, it's not the deepest RTS, but what other one has Prism Towers and battles between specially trained dolphins and mind controlled giant squids?
Yeah, I'd be going back to that too if my disk wasn't scratched. And, for some reason, Yuri's Revenge never worked on my computer.

Anyway, I keep going back to Mass Effect. I'm about to finish my 8th playthrough, and I'm already planning my 9th.

If a game is boring I don't go back to it...
But if a game is great than I'll play it forever, like CoD 4.

I keep coming back to Final Fantasy Tactics, I just love the story.
Lost Vikings I pick up every two years or so.
TMNT 4: Turtles in Time is always a classic.
Grim Fandango (of course).
Pokemon (Gold or Yellow depending on how purist I'm feeling).
Chrono Trigger and Cross.
Monster Rancher 2 (that game can be quite the smack addiction).

Rome: Total war

As games become boring then un-boring to me Rome's always been a fall-back game if I get bored.

Morrowind, Oblivion, Diablo II, Warcraft III. I am their slave.

I play through Half-Life and Half Life 2/Episodes at least every year.

I actually had the same problem with Yuri's Revenge on my laptop. It just wouldn't install. However it worked fine on my desktop. I had all the required hardware on my laptop, but something just didn't work. If you have a different computer, you could try putting it on that.

Morrowind, Rise of Nations, and Alpha Centauri. Oldies but goodies that are among their respective genres' best.

The thing with oblivion is that the game was long but the missions wwere the same old same old, steal this, kill that, I enjoyed it and I downloaded all the expansions (360 buy the way) but still it seemed lacking in longjevity.

Yeah, that was the problem I had with Yuri's Revenge, good to know there's at least a reason for it beyond my computer being shit.

More variety than most MMOs. I think one of the things that made me still play Oblivion was the mods. The amount of quality user content is staggering. I can't remember the site, but there was a compilation of 10 mods that was basically titled 'The way oblivion was meant to be played'.

Definitely worth getting.

Edit: For the PC version that is. Sorry.

Even since my PS2 broke and I converted to Microsoftism I still, when the moon is full, creep over to a friends house and pull out a Metal Gear Solid game and tank through it on extreme. For some reason MGS will always have a place in my heart...

Well actually, I dont think so. I don't have the game, but I heard that they eliminated prism technology. So my point still stands.
