1. Wario land 3
2. MGS 3 Subsistence
3. God of War 2
4. Killer 7 (The Gamecube one, not crappy PS2 version)
5. MGS 2 Sons of Liberty
Factoid: During the American Revolution there was a secert club called the Sons of liberty. One important member was Samuel Adams, he and his buddies wrote letters saying the British were mean bullies that stole their lunch money (in the form of taxes) and took the snowball fight way to seriously and made Timmy have to go home (Boston massacre). If you don't like my factoid, then spam my inbox with hatred as much as you like.

Halo Combat evovled is the greatest FPS of that generation, but the pc version looks so ugly at points. FLOOOOOOD, Ha I had a Star Trek reference.

1. Bubble Bobble[NES]
2. Oddworld: Stranger's Wrath[XBOX]
3. Ninja Gaiden Black[XBOX]
4. Flying Warriors[NES]
5. Killer 7[GCN]
Wow, I just realized the variety in my favorite games ever. 1 is a 2-D happy platformer, 2 is an FPS/3PS mix where you shoot critters(live ammo) and has one of the best stories in gaming, ever, 3 is a action/hackslash monster, 4 is the best RPG I've ever played, plus it's also a fighting game, and 5 is a survival-horror/third-person action/first-person shooter hybrid.
6. MGS3: Snake Eater[PS2]
7. Super Castlevania IV[SNES]
8. Otogi 2[XBOX]
9. God Hand[PS2]
10. Double Dragon 2: the Revenge[NES]
6-10 are usually never the same. They change depending on what i've been playing lately from my old stash, since I consider all the games i still own after a year to be keepers for life, but the top 5 are solid, except for the occasional switch with NGB and OSW for 2 and 3. 1, 4, and 5 are definitely unmovable.

Seems appropriate for one of my early posts to be an insight into what games I enjoy.
1. Legend (Four Crystals of Trazere) Amiga
Pretty much the only RPG (maybe game full stop) that I can honestly view as perfect as can be. A levelling system that works perfectly. A combat system that rewards the intelligent and punishes the stupid, this being especially true with the spell creation system (you read right) that is more robust than most customisation on offer today. Fantastic inventory system. Simple to use, difficult to master controls and gameplay actually done right.
I could praise it all day and still have things to talk of it. And I never have to say "... for it's time", it still holds it's own today. This is the true Grandfather of RPGs, and all of them have their roots in this game.
2. Final Fantasy VIII PlayStation
Any story with time as it's main story point always draws me completely in, especially if it has depth and personable characters to back it up.
Home to a very inventive combat system (some complain it can be abused or is "broken", but I see this as a plus - noone will "break" it first time through, maybe not even the second), one of the best sidequests (with Blitzball taking first place) and lots of things to unlock this is probably the game I have completed the most. Only because Legend is so long.
3. The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask Nintendo 64
Again, the concept of time is amazing (Ocarina of Time was good, but quite shallow) and the capturing of emtion with it was masterful.
The only game that has ever brought a tear to my eye SPOILER with the climax of the Kafei and Anju quest where there are reunited for the last hour of their life, all complimented by one of the best musical scores I know.
The rest of the game follows suit with the whole "I know you, but you don't know me" tragedy perfectly as well and gives you the need to save the land, a rare urgency forced upon the player.
4. Ratchet & Clank PlayStation 2
Maybe not the best of it's type, but the game that drew me away from a potentially bad mindset of "Higher Certificate = Better game".
Cute characters, witty dialogue, deceptive amount of depth. If nothing else it made me try games like Banjo Kazooie, Mario Galaxy, Sly Raccoon and many more of the same vein. Games that unfortunately many people will miss because of the "Cutesy = Childish/Bad" brush tar.
I thank OPSM2 for the demo they supplied one magazine many a year ago which had me hooked from the off.
5. There's many a game that could be placed here for varying reasons. Devil May Cry 3, Jet Force Gemini, Wing Commander (Amiga original, not the abominations that proceded it) for example, but I would be forcing it a little.
The four above have had the most impact on my gaming, and as good as games get now and in the future, none will ever be able to supply the impact that they have.

At the minute, my favourite games list is looking like this:
Although, this is subject to change, and there are many more games I'd consider among my favourites, but this thread calls for five, so five I gave.
Kingdom Hearts II
Pokemon Gold/Silver
Dragon Quest VIII: Journey of the Cursed King
Final Fantasy X
Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater

I read it all. IMO, it's not even that long of a post. At least it was in-depth, unlike short answers with no history.SirBryghtside said:
If i had to ppick a favorite between Morrowind and Oblivion, the nod would go to Oblivion, simply for the fact that they streamlined everything. Some people call it "console limitations", but i don't think that was it at all. Main thing for me was that the combat was more satisfying than Morrowind. I never was one for spells.
And before anyone questions, I only quoted the part I did to not hog up space.
Dear OP, for all the grief about repeated topic, at least you had the decency to extrapolate and offer reasons for your opinions rather than just another list.
My Top 5.
God of War I-II-III
I'll count these as one game due to them being an on going story and my certainty that III will be fucking tits mental.
Burnout 3: Takedown.
It's my fave of the series. Revenge was fun, but the traffic checking made it just a little too easy. 3 is proving to be a bit of a swine to get back into and therefore far superior.
GTA: San Andreas
A stunning achievment in the last gen. So much to do and so much fun to play. I've lost more hours playing these games than I care to think about.
Music 2000
This is where it all started for me. Not a game by any stretch but I've composed some fantastic tunes and I know people who've lost jobs because of a lack of sleep with this bad boy.
ROME: TOTAL WAR
What need be said. I love Roman history and between this and Gladiator I haven't looked back.
