    I can't pick a specific in the series of two of them.... Top two are series favorites and the third is self explanatory. Lol

    Forza Motorsports all of them (Forza Horizon was a tad of a flop but still enjoyed it)
    Grand Theft Auto
    Minecraft

    I'm with you on the front that there are too many awesome moments to pick just one. :) btw anyone who has an xbox live account should PM me and we can play some games too! Lol

    Many years ago my brother and I made a bet when we played Contra on the regular NES. The bet was to see how far we can get using only one life. I went first, ..... I went ahead and beat the game with that one life. That's probably my best video game moment ever.

    I've been playing this like crazy, it's all I can do to beat the game on one continue with the Konami code. You, sir, are a freak.

    I got Rome II the day it came out. I wish they would have made the characters more interactive. Love how they made legions more RPG like, but I feel like the characters could be made more...interactive? Personally, when one general dies, I don't feel too much of an attachment.

    Yea I agree there, but the physics are really well done, the maps are gorgeous as well as the character models. Way better then Shogun II, but still not as good as Napoleon--then again I'm a military historian and have an affinity for the 19th century, so I have a special place in my heart for that one. Still Rome II is great and the new Blood and Gore DLC makes it even more fun.

    Yeah, Blood and Gore should have come standard, though. At least in Shogun 2, watching units fight was cool. Before the DLC in Rome 2, units just kind of blobbed together. Still a fan, though.

    Insane. I beat Bionic Commando in one life once, but never came close on Contra without lots of continues.

    Most of my gaming is limited to what I play with my son now. Good thing he likes Madden and FIFA because I can't stand much of Mario Kart. I played Sherbet land way too much when I was slacking off in college to want to play it any more.
    Intelligence is knowing that a tomato is a fruit; wisdom is knowing not to put it in a fruit salad.

    I like Oliva and Quesada (including Regius) a lot.  I will smoke anything, though.

    Currently mixing it up, I'm playing as a imperial, working on building a stealthy/one handed assassin. Just got the Ebony Mail earlier today. I haven't gotten all the daedric artifacts yet so thought that would be cool to do..

    I'm playing lots of NES games right now. Contra, Dr. Mario, SMB3, Castlevania, Legend of Zelda. One of these days I gotta get my SNES and Genesis outta storage and get a little more modern, lol

    All time favorite were the Baldur's Gate games though. Two-player non-turn-based RPG. Not many of those out there.

    Not sure if you are aware of Baldur's Gate Enhanced Edition. Updated sprites, new characters and quests, widescreen, updates to the leveling system (kits and the like). I haven't played yet because all my life would be gone... maybe we need to get a board group together for some herfing and questing...
  • perkinkeperkinke Posts: 1,572 ✭✭✭
    My favorite all time has to be the Civ series, but Diablo and Baldur's Gate 2 are close behind.

    Oh, this could be bad for my marriage. I played the original in Afghanistan..."no mercy" kind of sums it up.

    Well I've been playing gta5 online a bit lately. Fun but the community online is a lot of idiots and children, very few people to actually team up and play as a team.

    Favorite game of the last year and I've played a LOT, is by far dragons dogma: Dark Arisen. I'm still addicted, best rpg in years. Think I have over 400 hours in my main character. Even created an alternate xbl account with a second arisen.

    I knew I liked this guy for a reason. Baldur's Gate is an all time favorite of mine too. I loved Shadows of Amn too.
