Best game in your opinion.
by Ruci » Sun Mar 30, 2003 4:03 am
Rules: Pick ONE game you think is the BEST you have played ever and elaborate on why that game is so great.
Example: Outlaws
This was the best game i played due to the multiplayer aspect of it being a great game that 2-8 people could play and would really be fun. The Spaghetti Western theme throughout the game enhanced it's fun with boiler plates for armor and little pop up tabs representing your ammo left. THIS WAS THE FIRST GAME REQUIRING RELOADING and LIMITED STAMINA PEOPLE!
Also the online gaming community established marshal law which made it against the rules to use certain items. (Badge, Cream, and Sawed-Off) And what better way then to have a duel in the west!
There were different characters you could play online who had different speed, power, and starting weapons to play with making every game interesting.
Who the hell doesn't like piling up loads of dynamite so much that when you jump and explode it you have to exit the game and come back because you get stuck in the sky.

i go for black and white
its a beautifull game
especially the multyplayer part
a little explenation
in the single player you have to train a creature you have to learn him certain miracles etc. you allso have to learn him how to eat when he has to go to sleep what is good and what is wrong and that last thing is the most important thing in black and white you can be evil or good evil means you win the game by killing people torturing people etc. good means you have to help people give food etc.
my fav. is being good cause being evil is to easy you don't get a really good kick if you gain a village when your evil. but if your good and you mannage to take over a village then you feel good:)
if your creature is good enouf you can start playing multyplayer games against others.

The Secret of Monkey Island
Hands-down the funniest game I've ever played, with gameplay that works perfectly. I'm an adventure-game diehard, so almost all of my favourites are old-school adventures from the glory days of Sierra and Lucasarts.
Bring back adventure games, and even failing that, lets have more humurous games. Todays games take themselves way too seriously(and as a consequence, gamers seem to take the games way too seriously, not to name any names *cough*)

I'm checking that game out SilverSurfer, thankyou. The first computer game I really got into was Jed Knight II. I just thought that game was cool because it introduced me to scripts, and it had a cinemalike feel. But probably my favorite single player is RTCW. I also like the Hitman series.

This is a tough question..
I will say my all time favorite game would actually be a series...and that series would have to be the legend of zelda series as for my favorite out of theseries I would have to say ocarina of time...I haven't played the lates yet because I don't own the system.
as for computer games I will break it up in single player and multiplayer
for PC single player game
I really enjoyed jedi Knight II in single player mode I had it set up so you could cut off limbs and what not made me feel like a jedi using the force. The only problem was that it was too short by the time you get all the force power the game is almost over.
for PC multiplayer game
I'd have to say RTCW once i started playing this game I was hooked then along came BF and stole my attention now the reason I choose RTCW over BF is because BF still has a unfinished feel to it sure it's great but when push comes to shove I pick RTCW...

Hard to pick one really. I LOVED Deus Ex single player, but the AI was sooooooo stupid... Half Life single player was all kinds of fun as well with the better AI. But I have to go even further back in time and say... Pocket Pool 
Been addicted to it for a LONG time. Yeah well, I had to take the easy joke. While not quite as far back as THAT game, I would have to pick an oldie but, IMO, goodie.... The original Metroid.
Multi-player (non-sexual this time, if only because I forget what that is like
). This even tougher than single player... The original Tribes introduced me to online gaming AND FPS PC games. My biggest gripe about that was that it got insane with the cheats and "scripts" inside of a year after release. It also introduced me to the crew of {CN}, and we've been together for over 3 years now.
Tribes 2 was the buggiest POS ever released. After they fixed it though... I made the games HUGE, no more 8-8, or 10-10 games. We took it up there to 24-24 with solid gameplay. I was in nirvanna, until the noob quotient got out of hand. Even after all that I stuck with the game for 2 years, because of the speed of the game and the awesome feeling of a hotly contested match with skilled players involved. I get an adrenaline rush just thinking about some of my flag grabs, even the ones that failed.
Then there is BF, my latest FPS addiction... FIX THE FUCKING NETCODE!!!
With all that said, my fave multi-player game is Scorched Earth. I still have great memories of the perfectly launched MIRV (???) peaking over a pesky hill, against the wind, and then spreading it's umbrella of pain over those other bastards trying to shoot my tank. Nothing like playing Scorhed Earth drinking games, and just getting hammered while you are getting hammered . That was my first true multiplayer PC gaming experience, and you never forget your first.

I was going to say Scorched Earth!!!! We used to play that in lab class for hours at a time! I still remember the by line even . . . "Scorched Earth - The Mother of All Games". I was so obsessed with this game that I once wrote a single player port of it for my old TI graphing calculator! It's still out there to download . . . maybe ECGN needs to host a Scorched Earth server!

Outlaws was cool. I loved the atmosphere in SP; all the enemy cowboys calling out to you and taunting you to come out and fight.
"Come out MARSHALL! hee hehe aHAHH haw!"
But I'm an adventure gamer, so those are first in my books. Man, Lucasarts used to really kick ass. Those two previous games plus Sam & Max, Full Throttle, Grim Fandango...... ahh, memories. Hopefully they'll really get back in gear with the upcoming sequels to Full Throttle and Sam & Max.
