Your Top Five Games Of All Time

Can't be arsed with saying why. #1 will become a fanboyish rant and #3 is not easy to say anything about. I just like the games anyway, it's not like I pick reasons to do so. (ﾟДﾟ;)

  1. Uprising: Join or Die
  2. Homeworld 2
  3. 東方怪綺談 ～ Mystic Square
  4. Medal of Honor
  5. Call of Duty 4

Indeed I do not play RPGs... much.

First off For my top 5 Game of all time, Dont Judge it please. Its my Opioion.

5] Super Mario 64
Well I would of pick Super Mario Bros. 3 Because its my first one, But my all time favorite is Super Mario 64, and I have to say Nintendo did a great job on it =]. It was my first game i ever got on my N64, and I was HOOKED to it. I had a lot of fun, and i am glad they brought it back on VC, and NDS.

4]Super Mario RPG
First Mario game that has been works with SQUARE. I Love Mario, and I love Square's games, and Both sound fantasic. I love How Some boss was designed to be in the future Final Fantasy at the time of SMRPG was in the making. I hate Emulators cause i never really finish the games all the way, But certin games I do finish, But I'm Only half way done, but my Computer had a virius =[ so I can't get my save data, But I have to say.... WOW!

3] Pokemon Green
I Love Pokemon, well I picked Green cause its the game that hasnt been release in America, Its like blue, yellow and Red. But Green its a little different, well thats what I think. Its just my favorite color too, I also like Diamond and Pearl, and Leaf Green. But Green is my favorite of all times.

2] Final Fantasy VII
Well I pick this game because its my first Final Fantasy Game, I love the story, the characters, and what ever is with it, specially Cloud, Tifa, Barret, and Sephiroth. I'm also a HUGE fan of Tetsuya Nomrua character designs works, specially Kingdom Hearts.

1] Kingdom Hearts II Final Mix
Well I usually play alot of Kingdom Hearts games, But I would of listed nothing but Kingdom Hearts Games because they are all my favorite games. So I choose to put different titles, But this is my Favorite out of all the Kingdom Hearts game, Its like Kingdom Hearts II, But this game is completely for Japan, It has the American Voice cast, But in Final Mix+ is also partly Japanese like the Subtitles, the Cutscene with the Bubble talk, the Pause Menu is Japanese, But its voices in English, and Final Mix+ it has more to it, like more boss battles like the new 14 Secerts Bosses inculding all 13 Organiztion Members including Roxas!!! Also you get to face Terra(The Knight in the Secret ending), But scene where you first go to The World that Never was, that scene where you see Roxas turns into a boss battle its EPIC!! 1 more form called Limit Form, 2 new Keyblades, and some new fun little mini Games, and courses that keep the game going for more hours to play. also new abilites, and much more, I say this game is INCREDIABLE, If you buy Import games, Order this game its sooo much fun. This Game top it all, It BLEW me away, Im still getting Excitied when I play it.

5. Paper Mario (Nintendo 64)
Quite frankly my favourite Mario RPG. It's cute, fun and despite the storyline being horribly rehashed, had an engrossing plot that kept me playing just to see who the next big boss was and when I'd get to take on the big bad koopa himself. The actual RPG elements were simple and easy to understand and made leveling up all the more fun (Star Points for experience and Badge Points to deliver the most classic and revamped moves Mario's ever had? Yes please!). Not only that, you get your very own partner (who can be upgraded too) and had their own unique powers to help the little plumber out. A very satisfyingly simple game with familiar characters everyone knows and loves.

4. Dead or Alive 4 (XBOX 360)
The series and reason I bought an XBOX and 360 for. Dead or Alive, despite criticism for being purely fanservice and not a real fighting game, is actually very fun to play and boasts a unique fighting engine that I prefer over the likes of Tekken and to an extent, Soul Calibur. It's a LOT faster than said examples and the attack strings are actually complex in the fact that there are far more ways to juggle/combo an opponent. Plus, the countering system is a great addition, since pulling a reversal in the middle of getting trodden on is always satisfying. Lots of hot guys too. xP

3. Super Smash Bros. Brawl (Wii)
There's a blond kid who has ice-cream shaped hair and a bird who prefers being in the air. No explanation necessary~

2. Final Fantasy Tactics Advance (GameBoy Advance)
The whole Tactics genre of Final Fantasy is the reason I got into the series in the first place. It brings back the traditional turn-based battles that are reminiscent of the good ol' days but adds a hell of a lot more detail and content. All of the different classes and race combinations had me sold the instant I heard about them and the fact that the story is set in the pre-apocalyptic FFT world, had me pining all over for the yet to be extinct Bangaas and Vieras. x3 The characters were complex and interesting while the story being somewhat cliche, still stood out as an original and engaging plot to follow. Not to mention the two extra side arcs after the main story is completed. *hyperventilates*

1. Kingdom Hearts II (PlayStation 2)
Honestly, until I get Final Mix+ like Sora said, the initial KHII is good enough for me. The story is just as intriguing as ever (although the Disney worlds seemed somewhat redundant now which I'm guessing Walt didn't want to submit to and have the sequel solely based on the OC cast) while the main characters are given even more love, which I was more than happy with watching. The battle system seems a lot less chunky and more fluid which makes things ever more enjoyable and the additional Drive forms were incredibly fun to play with as well. Admittedly, I found myself just grinding through the game to see how the story progressed, which is a good thing mind and was quite satisfied with the 'to be continued...' like ending. Plus, Mickey in an Organisation XIII robe had me shivering from the cuteness. If I saw him before I bought the game, that would have been reason enough to buy it instead. x3

5- Super Smash Bros. N64
A good jump around game that for some reason you just can't look away. Although everything in it is 2 generations out dated, me and jillions of people agree, this game rocks.
4- Sonic Riders PS2
Fun racing game, incredible speed for a Sonic game and new characters. And hoverboards? Wow, Naoto Ōshima, you are a genious.
3- Sim City 2000 SNES
Yah, I like a Super Nintendo game, bite me. I guess I like control. Not being the puppet, but the puppeteer.
2- Sonic Heroes PS2
Some said this sucked on the PS2, I liked it a lot. I started being a fan of Shadow playing this, then when Shadow the Hedgehog came out I realized he was an Emo and moved to Espio whom I liked anyway.
1- Pokemon Mystery Dungeon: Blue Rescue Team DS
To this day that is still a mouth full. I had a huge team and Squads! I loved that game a lot and I'd like playing it right now.
Well I'm done. THNX!
 
5. Banjo-Kazooie (N64): My second video game ever, and still one of my favourites. Loved the story, the humour, and the look. I still believe Nintendo's biggest mistake was selling this franchise to Microsoft.
4. The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time (N64/GameCube): Awesome game. Large worlds, fantastic story, and interesting characters. Even Navi was hilarious, XD.
3. The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess (GameCube/Wii): I was waiting years for this to come out, and was worried that my expectations grew too great in that time. But thankfully they did not. Whoever says it's too much like OoT, I say this: so what?
2. Fire Emblem: Path of Radiance (Wii): I bought this a few months ago, and I literally could not put it down. I love strategy games, though I hate shooter games. Ironically enough, I think that Smash Bros' greatest feature was its making Fire Emblem popular in North America.
1. Pokemon Diamond & Pearl (DS): I wasn't sure if I wanted to put this in my top 5 at all, but I eventually gave it the top spot. After all, I've played it more than the other four combined, XD. I am a severe Pokemaniac, and will remain as such until I drop dead.
 
5. The House of the Dead 2: One of the best rail gun shooters ever made. I use to spend hours playing this game when I was younger. To this day, I still play it occasionally. It is incredibly fun.

4. Galaga: Outstanding game. For its time, it was amazing. In addition to being fun, it is challenging and intellectually stimulating. I love playing it.

3. Parasite Eve: A great Survival Horror RPG. In addition to having excellent graphics and posing a fun challenge, it has an interesting storyline. Eve is also a great villainess. She truly terrified me when I first played the game at the age of nine.

2. Silent Hill 2: It is a dark, frightening game with a compelling storyline. All of its characters are interesting and well rounded. Furthermore, its graphics and soundtrack are wonderful, not to mention it hosts one of the greatest video game enemies ever created (Pyramid Head).

1. Tales of Eternia: What can I say? It has a great storyline, excellent characters, a good battle system, nice graphics, a cool soundtrack, and an awesome world map. You cannot get any better than that.
 
5: Golden Sun 1/2 - These, and a few FF games, are what started my RPG obsession. For a GBA game, I found the games to be very enjoyable, the story was decent, and the characters actually had some personality.

4: MarioKart DS - Mario? Cars? Wifi? You had me at "hello." Possibly one of the best DS games and the game that kicked off Nintendo Wifi. What more can I say, it's a legend.

3: Megaman Battle Network Series - Sadly a not too known series, but this was actually the reason I bought a GBA, and in doing so, was truly introduced to the world of gaming. But why did they end the series, I thought it was doing so good. Unfortunately, I'm not liking the new DS version.

2: Tales of Symphonia - ONE OF THE BEST STORYLINES EVER! I remember when I had to spend a weekend at my sister's house and I played this game NONSTOP! Sadly, I don't own a Wii and will miss out on the sequel... but my birthday is coming up...

1: Kingdom Hearts 1/2/CoM - If I told about a game that had Disney characters and Square Enix characters working together to save multiple worlds, you'd think that game would be an absolute failure. You couldn't possibly be any farther from the truth. I was first introduced to this game via demo and FELL IN LOVE. It was my dream game (not that I dream about Disney characters or anything). For everyone who thinks crossovers don't work, KH just smacked you. Twice and a half times.
 
#5: KINGDOM HEARTS FRANCHISE: One of the best animation companies (Disney) + One of the best RPG games (Final Fantasy) = Good game!

#4: RATCHET AND CLANK FRANCHISE: An ordinary platform game...IN SPACE!! Battling space monsters! Need I say more...

#3: JAK AND DAXTER FRANCHISE: My favourite being Jak II: Renegade, where Jak changes from a kid on a quest- to a rebel against authority stealing hovercars! Lol!

#2: ODDWORLD FRANCHISE: I grew up with this- full of puzzles to get you thinking and lots of humour! :D

#1: POKEMON FRANCHISE: Obviously, since I am on this forum! :D The best handheld games since Tetris! Lol! My favourites are Pokemon Gold (with 16 gyms), Pokemon Ruby (introducing special abilities) and Pokemon Yellow (incorporating the anime within the game)!
 
1. Mother 2/EarthBound (SNES, RPG, 1994 JP/1995 US)
This is number one with a bullet. It is a classic 13-year-old game that will never die in the hearts of its fans. It's the second game in the MOTHER series, which is a mostly Japanese-only series. This is the only one that got to the US. It's funny, with a great plot and unforgettable characters, featuring Ness, Paula, Jeff and Poo as they battle with high-stakes against extra-terrestrial evils. I've only beaten it twice, but... I could beat it a million times and never get tired.

Do you think I'm overrating it? Well, I don't care. I know it's not a perfect game. You can keep all your big-budget fancy-shmancy games, but EarthBound is the game for me.

All pretty much tied:

EarthBound Zero, Mother 3, Pokemon GSC, Pokemon DPPt, Super Smash Bros. Brawl, Super Mario All-Stars + Super Mario World, Super Metroid, Kirby's Adventure, Pac-Man, Space Invaders, Galaga, Castlevania series, A Link to the Past, Wind Waker, Mega Man 9, SMRPG and Chrono Trigger.

Thanks to most of the people in this thread for reminding me of some of my favorites. xD

Favorite Console: SNES, because it had so much great stuff. RPGs, action, and more!
 
Strange, I thought this out a few days ago.
Anyway.
1. Final Fantasy VII (PS)
2. Super Smash Bros Brawl (Nintemdo WII)
3. Poke'mon Pearl (Nintendo DS)
4. Sonic Chronicles the Dark Brotherhood (Nintendo DS)I'm english so we've had it four days before you, assuming you're american of course
5. Rock Band (XBOX 360)

This will probably change soon with the release of GH4 and stuff.
 
5. Suikoden III: Admittedly, I started with this game in the series. I now own every game in the series (even Tactics), and I can honestly say that this is my favorite. I grew attached to each and every character. I wept when the male whom I'd pegged as my favorite character died within the first hour. I felt for the bad guys. I loved the mini-games. It was an all-around great experience.

4. Silent Hill 3: Yes, I like it even more than Silent Hill 2. I found the third installment in the Silent Hill series to be the most difficult to finish, not because it was hard, but because it was terrifying. I happen to be afraid of heights, so watching Heather go near the roller coaster (and get run over :x) terrified me. The main reason I liked this one better was because I found the environments so much more immersive. They were terrifying because they were ordinary places. Don't get me wrong, I love the town of Silent Hill, but I sometimes find it difficult to connect. Besides, Heather's journey eventually led her to Silent Hill anyway. Definitely my favorite (with SH2 being the runner-up).

3. Shadow Hearts: NOT COVENANT. I hated Covenant. Shadow Hearts was, to put it simply, one of the greatest experiences for me. I was thirteen. It took my mom forever to allow me to rent it, but once I got my hands on it, I never wanted to take it back. To date, Alice is my favorite video game heroine. Halley was an amazing character as well. All of the music was perfect, all the environments creepy. I struggled with bosses. Then I got cocky and used Blind Ring on all my characters and demolished the game. I've played through three times, and loved it every time.

2. Paper Mario: I'm not going to lie - before this game, I wasn't a Mario fan. I absolutely love Paper Mario. It's one of the most simple, yet engrossing, RPGs I've ever played, which is what makes it so amazing.

1. Persona 3: Having been a MegaTen fan since...oh...age nine, I knew I would love this game. And I did. The music is incredible, with vocals on nearly every track. There's a dating sim aspect, which made it feel like I actually had control over the game, rather than the "cookie-cutter male protagonist falls in love with annoying, cookie-cutter heroine" scenario that I've grown to hate. Favorite game ever.​
