I've replied to a topic about this before, but this time my answer's going to be different as i'm in a different mood at the moment lol (Last time, if memory serves me, it was StreetFighter II in the arcades) -

Operation Wolf (Arcade) - This was one of the first lightgun games that I found actually accurate and was shit load's of fun :-) Especially shooting the chicken's to restore health lol Hell, even the Spectrum conversion was brilliant, though a bit lacking in colour lol

Games these day's, for the most part, just don't have the gameplay despite the power of PC's and consoles now :-( I had more fun playing games on the Spectrum, Amiga, Atari ST, Snes and Megadrive than I usually have playing games on my PC, PSX and Dreamcast (and my step-bro's PS2) lol Though, it might just feel like that due to the nostalga factor lol

So people will stop playing it and they dont have to pay the 10's of thosands of dollars for the bandwith people used when playing it on battle.net.

1.10 is way out balanced. Blizzard fucked the best game ever!!

ya, i'd say:

*Operation Flashpoint Series (operation flashpoint: cold war crisis/resistance) - dam, i've got atleast more than 700 hours playtime on this thing, usually spent it making my missions and experimenting wit different scripts

*GTA Series: loved #3 and vice city, i'm getting the double pack this week for xbox :D :D

*Battlefield 1942 tied with Half Life Series - :D

as for a game that i've got the most hours in, no competition: Microsoft Flight Simulator 2002 Pro. more than 1500+ hours, i just got fs2004, looks good so far.

Unreal Tournament 2003 is basically the same thing, except it's much better all around.

The best game I have ever played would have to be Zelda: Wind Waker. Quite an amazing game.

I have invested the most time into Diablo 2 though. I played that game for about 3 years, at least 6 hours a day. Man, what a waste of time.

It's too hard to pick just one so mine's between Metal Gear series and the Zelda: Ocarina of Time.

Ghost ReCon (island thunder)
BF1942
Vice City
Escape Velocity (mac only game)

Max Payne both - but i liked 2 more - specially the level when you have to help vinny escape and he is in that suit LOL! hilarious.

want to try Call OF Duty.

abu_has_the_power
11-12-2003, 11:45 PM
Oh,yea of course. goldeneye is a killer. so is max payne 1. max payne 2 looked cool, but was suprisingly easy to beat. no effort at all.

Deus-x is the best game ive played
followed closely by the myst trilogy

nsf003
11-13-2003, 12:26 AM
Deus Ex is by far the best.

The myst series and escape velocity override are close behind.

Operation Flashpoint is also right up there on my list.

All of the games i play must have freedom and customizeability, even if I have to use my imagination.


GTA3, The sims and expansion packs, hitman series, and rainbow six series deserve honorable mentions.

Where do I begin? I've had soooo many favorites, ever since I was a kid playing Pong in a bar room for the first time while my parents got drunk. I've been hooked ever since (on both games and beer ;) ). Here's a partial list...

Superman (Atari 2600)
Adventure (Atari 2600)
Zork and Enchanter Series (Commodore64)
Maniac Mansion (Commodore64)
Frogger (Arcade)
Discs of Tron (Arcade)
Dragon's Lair (Arcade)
Tetris (Arcade)
Super Mario Brothers 1 and 3 (NES)
Snake Rattle and Roll (NES)
Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past (SNES)
Tetris/Dr. Mario (SNES)
SuperMarioWorld (SNES)
Donkey Kong Country 3 (SNES)
Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time (N64)
Mario64 (N64)
Goldeneye (N64)
Mario Kart 64 (N64)
Banjo-Kazooie (N64)
Star Wars Rogue Squadron (N64)
Secret of Monkey Island 1 & 2 (PC)
DOOM (PC)
Warcraft II (PC)
Half-Life (PC)
Baldur's Gate (PC)
GTA3 and Vice City (PC)

-That's just a partial list. I'm sure I'll think of another game that I was temporarily addicted to as soon as I post this message.

p.s. I just got an Xbox and Crimson Skies is taking up more and more of my free time. :)

Gta Vice City: Unparralelled freedom, rampages, sub missions, multiple cars, jumps to discover, and genuine humour.

Eve Online: So, so deep. The most frustrating, brilliant, masterpiece of a massivly multiplayer game that will suck you in and have you within its real time universe.

Halo: Great graphics, great atmosphere.

Max Payne 2: Purely for bullet time and the physics engine. Never has cover and choice of terrain been so important when under fire, watching bullets knock over the boxes and bottles in front of you whilst you frantically spin in slow motion, duel deasert eagles blazing, watching the beautiful mixture of shattered particles, rocking boxes, and rag doll physics blending seamlessly together to make every action scene you&#39;ve ever dreamed of.

Monkey Island 4: Hysterically funny, and engrossing. Play it overnight with a friend and you wont have laughed as hard in ages.

Spiderman: Unusual choice i know, dodgy camera, some strange graphics, but the engine was perfect, swinging from rooftop to rooftop, crawling on the ceiling above hordes of badguys, fighting huge superhero villans, perfectly captured the essence of spiderman.

UFO: Apocalypse: Memorys of spending hours engrossed in this game with my brother, great stratergy and atmosphere

Master of Orion 2: See above



Just my few i can think of off the top of my head
