I realized this thread doesn't exist. There are variants, but no Top 10 All-Time Favorite games. So here is the official thread for this subject.

The question: list your top 10 favorite video games. No limits, just remember these are favorites, don't make top 10 worst please, that's for another thread. It doesn't have to be 10: can be less (if lazy) or more (if you have many).

Here are mine, and a brief description (backwards order, since I'm lazy and this is easier for me):

1) Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door: Probably my first experience with an RPG outside of Pokemon, this game left lasting impressions, with so much to do and great gameplay, it has firmly established itself as my favorite game of all time.

2) Pikmin 2: Another game of fond memories, this game is glorious in anyway I can think of. I literally see no flaws (maybe the Purple Pikmin being a bit overpowered) and I absolutely love this game.

3) Paper Mario (N64): The original Paper Mario game is still outstanding and amazing. It's great in all regards, and the small flaws it has were fixed in the sequel. But even with them, the undeniable charm in this game makes it stupendous.

4) inFAMOUS 2: FLAWLESS VICTORY. The game takes the first game, which was great, and makes it OBSOLETE. Incredible story, gameplay, UGC, and endings make this an incredible game.

5) Sonic the Hedgehog 3 & Knuckles: Screw Sonic CD, it sucks, this game is the ultimate Sonic game. With Knuckles being playable as well as Sonic and Tail, the many stages, and blast processing make this an ultimate platformer.

6) Super Mario World: Just short of being my favorite 2D platformer, but this doesn't mean anything: Super Mario World is incredible. The best 2D Mario platformer to ever be released, with plenty of levels to complete and explore. And Yoshi.

7) Pokemon Ruby/Sapphire/Emerald: 3rd gen da bess. Not 1st. Not 2nd. Not 5th. Definitely no 4th. This game is boss, and the most fun. It feels like there is more replay here and than previous and future titles, and the gameplay was just as great as ever. All hail Hoenn!

8) Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time: Back in June of 2010, back when the 3DS just got announced and OoT3D got announced also, I hadn't played a Zelda game ever. So I decided "Instead of paying $40 later, I'll pay $10 now and save money!" I didn't expect to love it so much I'd have the original AND get the remake. 'nuff said about my opinion on this game.

9) Kirby & The Amazing Mirror: This game. So much to do. So much to explore. One of the greatest GBA games in... ever! I really hope the Virtual Console on 3DS gets GBA games, and I really hope this is one of them, since I lost my copy ;-;

10) Super Smash Bros Brawl: Something about this game is so charming, so addictive, so... epic. Nintendo did well with Brawl, and I can't wait to see what's next. This game is great, amazing, outstanding, except laggy online and tripping.

Top 5 short on time just wanted to show im still alive will edit later ( maybe )

1. Super Mario Bros. (NES)
This game was my favourite game of my early childhood. This game really got me into video games. Everyone was addicted to it. I remember celebrating like crazy when I beat it for the first time.

2. Crash Bandicoot 2 (SPS)
While this game is really inferior to Crash 3, I really liked it the most. This was the first Crash game I played and it really got me crazy. I never beat it, because my Playstation got fuck'd. Now it just isn't the same.

3. Crash Team Racing (SPS)
Yep, another Crash game. This game was pure awesomeness. My whole class loved it, so we gathered at my place, as I was the only one with a PS. It even had a story of some sort.

4. Super Mario 64 (N64)
After playing Super Mario Bros. for five years, I kind of stopped playing video games for a brief period. Then my friend showed me this game and it was like a revelation. Awesome graphics, awesome levels, everything (and more!). We spent a lot of time playing this game, but I never beat it until a few years ago.

5. FIFA 98 (SPS) (Actually no, I think it was the World Cup game, though same shit)
Lol. This was the first football game I've played. I've played it casually a lot with my friends to the point where the CD just broke from overplaying (>.>). I am sure it was a FIFA game from 1998, but I think it was the World Cup game, which didn't matter to me at all (like I knew the difference back then).

6. Super Smash Bros. Melee & Brawl (NGC/Wii)
Yea. Addicting. Do I have to describe? Liked Melee's stunning graphics, but Brawl had online.

7. Dead or Alive (Arcade)
Yea, Arcade, not Sega Saturn. Every summer holiday when we go to our beach house, my cousin and I spent it playing this game on the arcades. It was so appealing, perhaps because of Kasumi :]

8. Spore (PC)
I don't know why I was really into this game. I just was. I really liked the concept, the level design and that different gameplay. Too bad there hasn't been a sequel so far.

9. Top Spin series (PC/X360)
Top Spin 1, 2, 3 & 4. The games I have been playing more than anything listed. Since I am a huge tennis fan, it is not a surprise really. Top Spin 3 made me buy an Xbox 360.

10. Ice Climbers (NES)
I just loved this game. Perhaps not as much as SMB, but definitely more than Space Invaders and Duck Hunt, which were also my faves. Though, at the time, I called the game "The Grannies", because I really thought the little climbers are actually old women.

Notable mentions (will add soon):

1: Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess (10 of 10) -Wii-
2: Legend of Zelda: Wind Waker (9.8 of 10) -Gamecube-
3: Super Mario Galaxy 2 (9.6 of 10) -Wii-
4: Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time (9.5 of 10) -N64/WiiVC-

6: Minecraft (9.2 of 10) -PC, Mac-
7: Super Mario Galaxy (9.0 of 10) -Wii-

9: Animal Crossing: City Folk (8.7 of 10) -Wii-
10: Super Mario Sunshine (8.7 of 10) -Gamecube-


As you can tell from this list, I am easily categorized as a neo-gamer. I have played those old games but I do not like them as much as these, Super Mario 64 was BARLEY nodded out by Mario Sunshine, 64 was gonna be 11

1. Left 4 Dead. I have over 1400 hrs logged on this and I have made so many friendships here, plus many noobs to pwn :3

3. Supreme Commander
4. lolz wind wakar
5. supa malleo sunshine
