calling all geeks: favourite video games of all time

CT is definitely number 1, but the rest are in no particular order.

Chrono Trigger
Chrono Cross
FFVI, VII, X
Xenogears
Shining Force II
Deus Ex
Xenosaga Ep. I
Knights of the Old Republic I
Suikoden III
Star Ocean: Till the End of Time

About Xenosaga, what is its relation to Xenogears exactly? I heard it was a prequel.

SFII is some good ****. Koto, I'm guessing you promoted Slade to a ninja? :icon_wink

As far as the Xeno series goes, it was planned to be six parts. Xenogears was supposed to be Episode 4 or 5, I can't remember. So yeah, XS is a prequel, and I really don't know why I have it on my list. The characters and story are pretty cool but the gameplay can be downright horrible at times. But then again, XG was the same way (remember the fights with Ramsus/Miang back to back?). It's a shame that Episode II was supposed to be so shitty, I kinda lost interest in the series. Some fond memories though.

Xenogears was amazing. I recall how Fei at higher levels could take out the mechs by himself. Also, remember when the doctor got back his katana? sweet.
Damn game took up 70 hrs of my life.

Sheesh, give me time to write up the list, and I will be back to claim my title as Ultimate Geek on this forum.

Edited to add: I'm being hindered by two problems today. 1) I have very bad ADHD, and am extremely hyper today and can't concentrate, and 2) I can't seem to find a pencil or paper.

I'm trying to think of some, but now I realize that every new video game that comes out is ****. My last 3 games were dissapointments.

Dungeon Lords. This game isn't even FINISHED. The programmers are still implementing everything, because like half the game is still missing. There goes $50

Area 51. I hate David Duchovny. He talks like something crawled up his ass and died. It woulnd't be so bad if he didn't talk through the whole game. Bleah.

Painkiller. Only for autistic kids who love gore. I swear, the WHOLE game is this: Enter new room, doors close, monsters pop out, kill ALL the monsters, go to next room. Boring.

And the two before that weren't that great either.

Metal Slug 4/5. This game lasted me like half an hour before I beat it. What else is there to do?

Metal Gear Solid 3. This game lasted a bit longer, but also NO replay value unless you are one of those OCD Japanese who NEED to get EVERYTHING in the game.

Bleah.

I hate games like that...come to think of it, most adventure/rpg games are like that.

There is like 60 something frogs in the game where if you shoot them all, you get invisible camo. There is this animal in the game, where you need to catch it once, it gets released, and then you have to catch it again and beat the game with it to get infinity ammo. The frogs are also hidden. And so is that animal. Yay!
