YOUR Top Ten Favorite Games EVER?

Postby JWK1 » March 20th, 2012, 10:14 am

I know, I know.  Many of you hate making and reading these lists, as it's somewhat limiting.  But many of us (especially myself) love reading them.  My tastes change on a monthly basis and I don't think I've seen a "top ten" thread here for a couple years, so this is long overdue!  List the game and system (and year, if you want).  

Q: What are your ten favorite games?

A:
1. Super Mario World (SNES, 1991)
2. Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past (SNES, 1992)
3. Castlevania: Symphony of the Night (PSX, 1997)
4. Half-Life 2 (PC, 2004; Orange Box, 2007)
5. Resident Evil 4 (GCN, 2005)
6. Uncharted: Drake's Fortune (PS3, 2007)
7. Mega Man 2 (NES, 1989)
8. Ms. Pacman (Arcade, 1981)
9. God of War (PS2, 2005)
10. Bioshock (360, 2007; PS3, 2008)

I exclude PC and Amiga, as i could easily fill a top 20 with PC games alone and it's difficult enough with all the consoles:

1. Sonic  the Hedgehog 2 (Mega Drive)
2. Metal Gear Solid (Playstation)
3. Super Mario Bros. 3 (NES)
4. Castlevania: Rondo of Blood (PC Engine)
5. Alex Kidd in Miracle World (Master System)
6. Bully Scholarship Edition (Xbox 360)
7. Shenmue 2 (Dreamcast)
8. Metal Slug 2 (Neo Geo)
9. Fire Pro Wrestling Returns (PS2)
10. International Superstar Soccer Deluxe (Playstation)

I have some really odd ball games on my list:

10. Super Mario All Stars (SNES)- first SNES game when I was a kid and played the hell out of all the games on the cartridge.
9. Castlevania Bloodlines (Genesis)- epic boss fights, love it. Plus the two different characters add a lot of variety in the stages.
8. Super Mario Galaxy 2 (Wii)- Love both games but getting 100% completion was a blast.
7. Capcom vs. SNK 2 (Xbox)- like this version best b/c the controller s is almost perfect for pulling off combos and stringing together attacks. Never had much luck with the DC and PS2 versions.
6. Mario Kart DS (NDS)- My favorite Mario Kart by far.
5. Castlevania Rondo of Blood (Turbografx CD)- For some reason I really like playing Castlevania games where you can play through almost the entire game without a Belmont.
4. Earthbound (SNES)- Have played the game through like 4-5 times.
3. Super Smash Bros Brawl (Wii)- I originally liked Melee more but there are a lot more people where I live that play this game competitively so have grown to like it more.
2. Cool Borders 2 (PSX) - I for some reason love this game and cannot stand the rest of the series. I probably could play every course blindfolded. I still play this game on a frequent basis.
1. Super Smash Bros (N64) - have way too many fond memories of this game.

Hmmm this would be a tough one, so these are definetly in no particular order, and these will probably be more modern games cause its really the generation i play the most.

 

1. God of War series

2. Baldurs Gate Dark Alliance

3. Skyrim

4. Both Dragon Age games

5. Lord of the Rings series

6. Dante's Inferno

7. Splatterhouse

8. Knights Contract

9. Uncharted series

I could really keep going and going to be honest as their has been a lot of games i have been enjoying lately, but those are right some came to me right away when making this list.
