What are your favorite games and Why?

from WinCustomize Forums
I thought this would be an interesting, non-political thread. I must say mine is probably Forsaken. Probably because I got terribly dizzy when I first played it. And, I love it when I frag someone who is talking trash.

1. Forsaken
2. Quake III Arena
3. System Shock II
4. Half Life
5. Tomb Raider (Laura brings back memories, or is that Lara? lol)

1) Unreal Tournament 2003
2) Unreal Tournament

Used to be quite good. My online gameplay is now rubbish - my broken mouse hand never healed properly. But at least I don't break mice as often as I used to!

My list of games is turning into a "Nintendo of Europe are morons" protest more and more.

1. Front Mission
2. Ogre Battle
3. Fire Emblem

None of 'em were released over here. NoE thinks we're only good for crud platform and crap sports games. Even worse: Sony seems to be adopting that thought. Even though they released Final Fantasy (hurray!), Final Fantasy Tactics was never brought out here. Tactical RPGs seem to be a bridge too far. Blegh!

Bomberman, by the way, still rules supreme as far as multiplayer goes (that is, multiplayer with a bunch of friends in the same room).

Right now my favorite is 'Go Fish' with my 4 yr old. He's starting to get the hang of it but you have to watch him, he tries to cheat.

Plus a non-digital game: Magic has got to be the most addictive game I ever played. Wasted way too much money on it.

but now I play Yu-gi-oh. I only have three cards but I am working on more.

Blue Eyes White Dragon
Red Eyes Black Dragon
Dark Magician

And I have the 3 Egyptian God cards on the way!

TFC and not much else. I would probably play BattleField 1942 but my computer is not powerful enough so every now and then I'll go play it at a friends.

My gaming consoles are collecting dust, especially my Xbox. Halo was the only game I bought for that system. I'll pop Vice City into the ps2 just to do some meaningless killing sprees but I have no intention of ever beating it. Bought and played Resident Evil 0 for a little while and haven't beaten it. Games don't have the same appeal to me anymore.

I like mindgames....Been a chessplayer for years, played nationally in Dutch tournaments at Wijk aan Zee...I liked Schizm (No violence, but teasing your logic). Myst. Hate all those shooting and killing and battle idiotism. I do like Flight simulator though.

Planescape Torment

and I also like all "explore and click on everything you see.." games like the Myst series and others like it.

and RTS games like Red Alert, Warcraft usw. ... as long as it isn't a FPS...

Yeah, I really liked Warcraft as well. Also Baldur's Gate and Diablo.
But I can't stand first person shooters either.
