Your personal top 3 games you have ever played.

Homeworld/Homeworld: Cataclysm. I list these together, because they hold the same place in my heart, and I consider them part of the same thing anyway.

inFamous 1. Had so much fun playing this game. Made me genuinely feel like a superhero, with a kryptonite that made sense, and was a serious detriment to my powers. Plus it's one of the few sandbox games that made me feel like I was genuinely making a difference in the area, and getting direct feedback about those changes.

Life is Strange: Episode 2. I really do have to list this, simply because I'm basing "favorite games of all time" on how much emotional impact they had on me. And this part, when it first came out, playing it fresh on release date, hit me like a truck. The climax of it had me so anxious and nervous, I was genuinely shaking, worried about what the outcome would be. Few games make me give a shit about the pixels on the screen in front of me, all of the games in this list of mine did. And that's why they're there.

1 Gotcha Force- It had a fun gameplay which actual cool looking toy mech worth collecting. Despite the flaws (repetative gameplay and character dialogue sounds), I can played it hours upon hours on trying to get that mech!

2 Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time. This game is special considering it I first played it on the Gamecube and not on the N64! The world was rich, it had a great soundtrack and innovative dungeon and challange. The characters are great too!

3 Borderlands 2- It is a unquie blend of gerne, RPG but in FPS form. While RPG get you to farm for swords and spell, in Borderlands, it's all about guns (is this what gun fanatic feels like). To top it all off are the characters, they really made the game great!

Shadow Of the Colossus- Aside from the camera occasionally trying to kill you, one of the best unique premise games I think I'll ever play.

Bioshock-It's a sign of my age, but this was the first game I played that made any ideological point. It playing around with player character agency also was excellent. All of it wrapped in a pretty neat shooter is why it's on the list.(Spec Ops deserves a special mention but didn't make it because the gameplay is boilerplate 3rd person cover based shooters with some nifty environmental hazards)

Crusader Kings II-I Have put such an unholy number of hours into this game that I'd be remiss if I didn't include it. That just wouldn't be right. I hope Stellaris will be a similarly huge timesink for me.
