Alright so in this thread just share your favorite game of all time. It can be a new game or an old classic doesnt matter. I kinda have an old classic in mind for mine but it doesnt mean yours has to be a classic.

My favorite game of all time is Contra. (NES) It was kinda my first two player game that had both players on the same screen helping each other. (After Contra it was TMNT II the Arcade game.) Its fun the way you have a buddy to help you beat every stage..also more fun if you have cheats so you wouldnt end up screwing each other over. Contras kinda my frist game I actually remember beating. I know thats kinda funny but I never beat any Mario game either. Well.. besides SuperMarioWorld and Yoshis Island. I was older and more expierenced when those came out. But Contra was a classic an 8 year old and his 5 year old cousin beat together. (using cheats) It has an old classic feel for me and my favorite overall classic/videogame.

This is a hard one, but I have to go with The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time. I've played through it over and over again, and I can still play it and really enjoy it. Although Super Mario World and Sonic 3 & Knuckles are right up there with it.

My favorite of all time huh.

Kingdom Hearts of course.

Legend of Zelda Ocarina of Time is tied with it though, I've beaten both of those games at least 10 times each.

I have a few, Its hard to pick just one.

Skies Of Arcadia/ Skies Of Arcadia Legends (Legends was a port with extra stuff but the muisc qualty wasn't up to scratch due to the gamecube having an inferor sound card to the dreamcast)

Shenmue (Dreamcast game, one of the(if not) the most expensive games to be made, and it was pure amazing, blows me away to this day still.

Final Fantasy IX (PS1, I just loved the world, the characters and music, it all matched and i felt attached to the characters and story)

those would be my top 3 i think, although Majora's mask and Metroid Prime would be in the top 5

Shenmue was amazing. I loved that game. That game was the reason I sold my Dreamcast. I beat it, and it left me with this huge ass cliffhanger of an ending. So I waited and waited for Shenmue II. It was suppose to come out in the fall of 2001 and was to be one of the very last Dreamcast games. Anyway, they decided to bring it to the XBox instead. (Although you Brits got it for Dreamcast.)

I was so pissed, I sold my Dreamcast and all of my games to a kid at school. I kind of regret it now; it was one of my favorite systems. I used the money to buy a Gamecube on launch day.

Yep, 9 was just that good. Along with all the things L listed, it also has an amazing ability-learning system, as well as a lot of nostagia from pre-7 FF games. The areas, the characters, the art and effects, the story, the battle system… It's just all great. FF7 is great, but overhyped. I even get cravings for playing FF9 sometimes.

Also, OOT. I'm not a fan of picking favourites. 9 and OOT, that's good enough for me.

Contra's a great choice, Shell. That game just doesn't get old.

My favorite is Halo 3. The online multiplayer is just too much fun to ignore.

If WWF No Mercy had an online mode, maybe I'd choose it.

I don't really have a favorite favorite since there are a few choices out there.

When I was a kid, it was Sonic 3 and Knuckles, then later on it was Sonic Adventure 1 and 2, the Final Fantasy series and then Morrowind and Oblivion.

Yeah I'm a Sonic nerd.

Most time on – WoW, easily. Dominates me.

Favourite – Probably Zelda: Ocarina of Time. Pure magic. Okami was also pretty amazing, and Ico is absolutly 100% fantastic.

Favourite multi-player – Fifa. I love playing football games with friends. Last year we recreated the whole premiership season (that's 760 games between three of us) and I still didn't get bored.

Rez, you after the dreamcast version or the PS2 one? I know the dreamcast version is ALOT harder to get hold off.
