    I searched a few pages for a thread like this, then got lazy, so I apologise in advance if this already exists.

    Here you can list you're favourite video games! Top 5, top 10, top 100, do whatever you want.

    I'm personally going to stick to console games for this, because Star Wars: The Old Republic would be the only PC game to get mentioned. Anyway, here's my top 10:

    1. Grand Theft Auto V
    2. The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt
    3. Uncharted 4: A Thief's End
    4. Tomb Raider (2013)
    5. Batman: Arkham Knight
    6. Assassin's Creed: Black Flag
    7. The Last of Us
    8. Star Wars: Battlefront II
    9. Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain
    10. Assassin's Creed III

    A honourable mention goes to Horizon Zero Dawn, as I think it'll get a place on my top 10 once I've finished it.

    All of these games are quite recent. No favourites from the previous generation or the one before?

    Na, sadly I never used to play a lot of games when I was younger. It's when PS3 came out that I really started getting into it.

    1) UFO: Enemy Unknown / XCOM: UFO Defense
    2) Ancient Domains of Mystery (ADOM)
    3) Mass Effect

    I was trying to think of a full Top 10 list, but like Life pointed out above, it felt a bit recent, so I backed away from it. I was thinking of games like Shadow of Mordor, the new XCOM games, Dragon Age might be somewhere on the list, and so on. I think I've simply forgotten a lot of games I used to like, or how exactly I felt towards them. But those three have stood the test of time for me or otherwise worked out really well. Still play them now and then, too. A bit of old, a bit of new, a bit of ASCII, and that's top three. :)

    Well for me, a list of my top 10 games that I've played is more like a list of all the games I've ever played, lol.

    Still, I like the little computer games you get free trials of when you buy a computer. Factory reset will return the free trials (Penny pincher, much?)

    1. Plants v.s. Zombies -- Not sure why, but I absolutely loved this game....was very sad when the free trial ended, and I almost considered buying it. But then I didn't. ;)
    2. Any match 3 games. -- Very very addicting, but a little tiring after a while


    Jeez, I need to play more games, lol. Honestly, I have a hard time sticking to a game, so it ends up being a waste if I buy it. I think I'll be sticking to my dorky little free trials for now. :p

    Always hard to narrow something lime this down, but, in no particular order:

    -The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past
    -The Illusion of Gaia
    -Super Metroid
    -Metroid Prime 2: Echoes
    -Super Mario Sunshine
    -Super Mario RPG
    -ChronoTrigger
    -Star Wars: Dark Forces
    -StarCraft
    -Mario Kart 8

    But there's undoubtedly a multitude of ones I'm forgetting to include off the top of my head.

    Here we go. No order

    Secret of Monkey Island
    Half Life 2
    Championship Manager 02/03
    Horizon Zero Dawn
    Final Fantasy 9
    Metroid Prime
    Zelda - Ocarina of Time
    Guild Wars
    Resident Evil 2
    Freespace 2


    And at no point should Arkham Tank ever be on a favourite list. Asylum and City are far superior.

    Due to childhood nostalgia, my entries are inevitably going to be disproportionately occupied by N64 games, but it seems to me this is a list of our top 10 experiences playing games, not a ranking of the objectively best 10 games we've played. So, on that basis, in no order:

    Super Mario 64
    Star Wars: Shadows of the Empire
    007: GoldenEye
    The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time
    Zelda: Majora's Mask

    Ico
    Shadow of the Colossus
    Spider-Man 2
    Journey
    Brothers: A Tale of Two Sons

    If I had more space, I would have added Spec Ops: The Line and Sleeping Dogs somewhere on the list too.

    Holy cow, some of the games mentioned in this thread...

    Given some of the other games mentioned I can't tell if the thread devolved into a poorly judged attempt at humour.

    As for my list...

    Bayonetta
    Resident Evil 4
    Shadow of the Colossus
    Psychonauts
    Metal Gear Solid 3
    The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask

    Some of the other games on here are shocking (I'm certain one or two of mine are to some people too) but Arkham Knight is a terrible game compared to Asylum and City and unless you've only ever played 10 games or it's up against a list of 10 including The Force Unleashed.....

    That's weird, I've only ever heard very positive things about Arkham Knight until now. It was an outstanding game. The only problem I had, was there wasn't many proper boss battles, but everything else made up for it.

    Well everyone has their own opinions I guess. It wasn't until around 2010ish that I discovered Mario and the other famous Nintendo series and I only got a 360 in 2013 (mainly for Arkham Asylum and Arkham City actually) so my list is based on what I've played the most and have the most memories of.
