    Title speaks for itself. Feel free to discuss any games and edit your list as time goes on.

    My List:

    1. Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2
    -This game holds the title of the most time I've ever logged in a game. I think I got 24 days put into it, and I don't regret a second of it. I also doubt I'll ever put more in a game as I now have tons of schoolwork and my interest in games has greatly diminished. This has the best maps of the whole COD series. Highrise, Terminal, Overgrown, Wasteland, and Quarry are some of my favorites. But from the main maps to the DLC maps each and every one of them was fantastic. My friends and I would love playing search and destroy to use teamwork, or we would play domination and try to get da nook :CUMULUS: Some of my fondest gaming memories came from this game, and if they ever put out a remaster I will buy it immediately.

    2. The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim
    -
    3. Red Dead Redemption
    4. Bioshock
    5. Pokemon: FireRed/Ruby
    6. The Last of Us
    7. Dragon Age: Inquisition
    8. MLB 2k5
    9. Call of Duty: World at War
    10. The Walking Dead Season 1 and 2

    I'll come edit this with an explanation to each pick but now it's 11:30 P.M. so I better not.

    1. Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic
    2. The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask
    3. Pokémon main series generations I-IV
    4. The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time
    5. Halo main series
    6. The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion
    7. Fallout: New Vegas
    8. Mass Effect main series
    9. The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim
    10. Fallout 3

    Alphabetical honorable mentions: Civilization IV; Donkey Kong 64; The Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind; GoldenEye 007; The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess; Mario Kart 64; Portal & Portal 2; The Sims; Super Mario 64; Super Mario Sunshine; Zoo Tycoon

    I listed Pokémon (the main games from the first four generations, at least), Halo, and Mass Effect as series because I played them all together and I can't separate one game from them to choose as a favorite. It's almost impossible.

    edit —
    Ha. I guess it's pretty obvious my favorite games are, for the most part, RPGs.

    edit 2 —
    Added a couple more honorable mentions. I listed them because they're some of my favorite games—just not top ten.

    Alright, I hate lists but I'm gonna give this a shot.

    1. Mass Effect (as Will said, can't pick one)
    2. Skyrim
    3. Borderlands 2
    4. Batman Arkham series
    5. Crash Bandicoot III
    6. Borderlands
    7. Last of Us
    8. Pokémon (Red? Idk, its been so long. Just have some really fond memories)
    9. Mortal Kombat (I'm gonna be pretty general here as well, though there are 3 or 4 out of the series I prefer)
    10. Crash Team Racing

    Crash Bandicoot III was my first game. That's why the love affair there lol. Also, where the fuck are the Batman games in your lists? Cause that is incorrect.

    NOT RANKED, JUST TOP 10 PERSONAL FAVORITES.

    1. Tetris
    It's Tetris.
    2. Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask
    Honestly still think it's a better game than Ocarina of Time. Come at me. The use of constraints makes it a much stronger game to me.
    3. Mass Effect series
    I tried to argue my way out of listing this, but this damned series was storytelling at its finest.
    4. Final Fantasy VI.
    Yeah that's right. Not VII. Hell, if it wasn't VI, it'd be VIII. Come at me.
    5. Chrono Trigger
    I don't even care about getting an HD remake of VII. VI or VIII are more important. Or THIS game. Chrono Trigger in HD would have me literally killing bitches in line at the store if I had to stand in line at the store.
    6. Gunstar Heroes
    Probably my favorite game on the Genesis. Such a perfect action game. If you haven't played it, play it. Play it on the most difficult setting and go against one of my favorite boss fights of all time, the Seven Force:

    [youtube]Hcyn-FXcFO0[/youtube]

    This weapon selection and the guy's skill makes this look easy. It's not.
    7. Street Fighter III: Third Strike
    The perfect fighting game. Honorable mention goes to Capcom Vs SNK 2 and Marvel Vs Capcom 2. But Third Strike takes the cake.
    8. Portal Series
    Portal was a perfect game. Portal 2 expanded the Universe and caused emotions to happen. The perfect blend of humor, plot, and mind-boggling puzzle action.
    9. Neverwinter Nights
    My first forray into Bioware games and it's still one of my favorites. This is how a D&D game should be MADE.
    10. Tony Hawk Pro Skater 2
    The soundtrack. The mother. Fucking. Soundtrack. And they added Rodney Mullen and flatland tricks like the manual.

    That's why I like it, too. There're way too many people out there who say that's the game's weakness. To me, if that constraint didn't exist, the game would be almost exactly the same as Ocarina of Time, and wouldn't even be worth listing.

    1. Mario Kart Series (Gosh so many freaking memories, so much rage, so much fun)
    2. Mario Party (9 didn't really impress me but the rest are so much funnnnnnn)
    3. Final Fantasy 4 (This was a fantastic final fantasy. I really liked the character design and story development of this game)
    4. Smash Bros. (Probably would be higher if I had was a more hardcore player early on in my life).
    5. Final Fantasy 12 (I feel this game is underrated but other fans of the series. While Vaan was a little flat as a protagonist, the rest are really good)
    6. Star Ocean (I love this game a lot!!!!!!! The battle system was one my favorite of all time. It wasn't highly skill oriented but the freedom it gave you was fantastic)
    7. Pokemon (More specifically Ruby, Swampert still holds a place in my heart as a top tier pokemon)
    8. Mass Effect (I love the party based traveling system and the story telling was really amazing. It was the first game I played that gave you that much freedom with your character)
    9. Battlefield 2 (My first ever FPS. It was freaking fantastic good times)
    10. Starcraft 2 (First ever professional game that I ever got into and since then I have been fascinated by pro gaming)
