5. Final Fantasy IX.

This game was great. The storyline was really gripping, it had the best cast of characters of any Final Fantasy, and it also had the most rewarding ending of them all. The graphics were also amazing. Square really pushed the powers of the Playstation to the very limit with this one.

4. Silent Hill 2.

I played this for the first time when I was still in highschool and my parents had left me home alone for the summer holidays. I remember one time when I was seriously sleep deprived and kept awake/alive only by some serious amounts of cola, I was playing this game and something happened which sent me falling off the couch in shock/surprise. The other Silent Hill games are good too, but in the ones that came after SH2, they seemed to focus a bit more on action and a bit less on the creepy atmosphere that made SH2 so great.

3. World of Warcraft.

I am in no way a fanatic player of this game, but at this point I REALLY don't want to know how much I have actually played this game. Blizzard did a really good job, making the world of Warcraft come to life in an MMORPG, and when I first played it, I marvelled at all the locations I could recognize from Warcraft 2 and 3. I also really likes the versatility of the game. Whether you have half an hour or an entire day to play, you can pretty much always find something rewarding to do.

2. Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic.

If Final Fantasy VIII is my favourite RPG, KotOR is definitely my second favourite. The characters were great, the storyline was even better, and BioWare managed to let you influence the storyline in so many ways without ever losing focus of the main plot.

1. Final Fantasy VIII

This just seemed like such a labour of love in a way that no other game I've played has been able to contend with. The storyline is fantastic, the graphics were pretty top notch when it came out, and to this day, I still find the design and visual style of the game to be the most appealing of any game that I have ever played. There's not one thing I dislike about it, and I have played through it more times than I care to remember.


After those 5, it all gets a bit blurry. I could probably name 5 more games which I really love, but there would be atleast 10 more games that I consider equally worthy. So those 5 will have to do.

I wonder how many people actually read through this...

10. Final Fantasy X - The story is really good in this game, and the love story between Tidus and Yuna was so sweet. But the thing that made me love this game so much, was one character in particular - Lulu. I adored her, her clothes, her magic, her personality, her attitude - everything. She is definately, in my opinion, the best game character ever!

9. Silent Hill 2 - This story is so complex, and I love the fact that it is open to interpretation by anyone, and there are so many theories. The game and storyline was dark and physcological, and the town looked it's best in this game, and that's what made it a favourite of mine.

8. Resident Evil Remake - When I first heard they were remaking Resident Evil 1, I was not happy, because I thought it would be ruined like they usually do, plus I didn't have a Gamecube. But I was so wrong. This game stayed true to the original, keeping its excellent story and brilliant characters, but gave the essential updates it desperately needed, such as the original voice acting which was awful.

7. Final Fantasy VIII - My second FF title, and I loved it. What I particularly liked about this one, was the darker and more mature storyline. It has some really memorable parts such as : the airship with Rinoa and the attack of the garden, to name a couple. Also, I loved the amount of effort that was put into devoloping each character as an individual with their own personalities and stories.

6. The Elder Scrolls : Oblivion - I was not impressed with the Xbox 360 when I first got it, because of the lack of decent games, but that all changed when I got this. It is definately the best RPG I have played since FFIX. I loved the gorgeous graphics, the great story, and the way it is so non linear and is packed with hundreds of exciting side quests and great things to do. Seriously good game.

5. Tekken 2 - I always remember christmas 1996, when I got my Playstation 1 and my first game, Tekken 2. I spent 14 hours straight playing this because it is so damn addictive, and this is where my love of Nina Williams spawned from. This will always hold a high rank with me, simply because it's so fun and it was the first PS game I owned!

4. Final Fantasy IX - There is a certain charm about this game that I adore, and I'm not exactly sure what it is. I loved the world in this FF, and I'd spend hours and hours trawling the world just exploring. And the story was one of the deepest I'd played.

3. Silent Hill - I first saw this game when my babysitter was playing it infront of me, and I went home that night and had nightmares - and from the on I loved the game and bought it! The story is so sinister and bizarre and is what makes me love this game so much.

2. Resident Evil 2 - I must of played this when I was like 9, and I remember that it scared the hell out of me, but I loved it. My favourite Resident Evil. Loved the characters (especially Ada), and the story was the best. The game has so much replay value, and it was great having 2 characters each with 2 different stories.

1. Final Fantasy VII - My first Final Fantasy game, and I absolutely loved it. Everything, in my opinion, is fantastic. It had some of the most memorable characters to date, in fact they were all memorable in their own ways, and the story was so deep and interesting.

10.Resident Evil 4,GC(ZOMG, I knew this game was going to be either really bad or really good, glad it was the latter. It'd be higher on my list if it had better replay value, a multiplayer mode would have been nice)

9.Super Mario Sunshine(this game I played through and enjoyed throroughly, and it's also one of the few games that I'm always in the mood to play, it's like a virtual vacation XD.

8.Grandia 2, Dreamcast(great anime style RPG, the battle system I think is still the best I've ever played, and that's saying something)

7.Quake 3 Arena(awesome FPS, logged many hours on this game too. The weapons I think are what it really stand out.

6.Soul Calibur 2(I have this game for the GC and I couldn't get enough of it. After the epic single player mode I played my freind for many many hours. Link ftw!)

5.Final Fantasy IV(I played this one after all the ps1 games and it still made it to my top 10 list XD, great story and gameplay, 'nough said.)

4.Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask(this had the one thing I thought OOT kinda lacked, which was story. The entire dark theme and mood was a delight too.

3.Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time(first really good 3-d game in my opinion, it was revolutionary to say the least.)

2.Metroid Prime(just an all around great game, once you get used to the controls you really feel like Samus is a part of you)

1.Final Fantasy VII (wouldn't say its the best game ever, but my best memories are with this game, so it earns #1 with me XD)

Honorable Mention-
Animal Crossing
Harvest Moon
Timesplitters 2
Super Mario 64
Shenmue
Skies of Arcadia
Suikoden 3
Arc the Lad Twilight of the Spirits
Kingdom Hearts Chain of Memories
(sorry, play too many games XD)
