What do you feel is the best video game ever made?

I personally like Final Fantasy 7.

Chrono Trigger.

vice city...untill san andreas

Fuck off. GTA is nothing on either of the above games mentioned.

7 was good but i quit about halfway through...chrono ive never tried.
must we be so violent?

__________________

GTA is good but Nihilist is correct, it does not compare with Chrono Trigger or Final Fantasy.

__________________

Zombies ate my Nieghbors
Doom I

sorry i cant choose just one

__________________

My favorite game is Mario 1 and 2 and 3. Tied with all the old Zeldas.

Then I'd have to say...Metroid Prime and the Silent Hill games.

I love most games so I'm not gonna list no mo'.

in consoles i think
NES: Mario Bros. 1, 2 and 3
SNES: Teenage Mutant Ninja Turles IV: Lost In Time, ISSSD
PlayStation: Soul Calibur I
N64: The Legend Of Zelda: Ocarine of Time, Golden Eye and Perfect Fucking Dark!!!
PlayStation 2: GTA: Vice City
PC: Mafia and Warcraft III Reign in Chaos
XBox: Halo and Halo 2... i hope
GameCube: Viewtiful Joe and Metroid Prime
Arcade: I really like Time Crisis 3 in cooperative mission
And all final fantasy and resident evil series

But the best maybe is perfect dark (N64) because it was too realistic for the epoch, like the shots with the handgun to extremities and the guy walked with a limp, the shots to the head or to the handgun of your enemy, phrases like: "Sun of a bitch", "It´s Mine, the graphics was really good, and the multiplayer mode was amazing and the best, you can put more than 10 simulants plus players, missions where interestings, and has a little comedy touch, when you was in espionage, the guys where playing with guns, or scratching his bolls For The epoch was and is the best, non other one-player game for xbox, playstation 2 or game cube can overcome it... maybe halo but it´s a relase comparing to Perfect Fucking Dark!!!

the first game i ever played and still play supermario world
almost all of the mario games are awsome though
i havnt beaten trigger but its good
so is ff7 awsome story line there

at this years g-phoria (award show for games) the game of the year went to star wars knights of the old republic....never played it

And then Warcraft 1+2+3, can't leave them out.

__________________

I think my friend is BigManMurph on counter strike, go fuck him up for me

HELP!!!!! I don't have Chrono Trigger anymore, and talking about it made me want it sooo bad.

I've queued ZSNES and Chrono Trigger on slsk, but its like 100'th in the queue. Is there a site i can get them from?

Thanks in advance, i love that game.

Hands down, Doom is the king of all video games. It doesn't matter how many times you finish that game, you always go back for more. This is the sign of an all-time classic and is exhibited by so few games of recent years.

I think that the only game that can compare to it in the 'just one more go' stakes is Super Mario Kart on the Super NES. Another classic of days gone by.

Crash Bandicoot?? WTF?

Old NES games are probably the best. I allready listed FF7 as my favorite, but Zelda rocks and so does the first Castlevania.

I have an old Atari 2600 that stil works and Burger Time also kicks ass.

it's a poem by Baudelaire, called 'Spleen'

i found an english translation of it at http://www.fleursdumal.org
it doesn't really keep the dark mood it had in french but it might give you a general idea of the poem:

When the low, heavy sky weighs like a lid
On the groaning spirit, victim of long ennui,
And from the all-encircling horizon
Spreads over us a day gloomier than the night;

When the earth is changed into a humid dungeon,
In which Hope like a bat
Goes beating the walls with her timid wings
And knocking her head against the rotten ceiling;

When the rain stretching out its endless train
Imitates the bars of a vast prison
And a silent horde of loathsome spiders
Comes to spin their webs in the depths of our brains,

All at once the bells leap with rage
And hurl a frightful roar at heaven,
Even as wandering spirits with no country
Burst into a stubborn, whimpering cry.

— And without drums or music, long hearses
Pass by slowly in my soul; Hope, vanquished,
Weeps, and atrocious, despotic Anguish
On my bowed skull plants her black flag.

I'm having trouble downloading a emulator. Whenever I download one, that screen shows up and says"open this with..." and there's a list of programs. If anyone know what to do or if there's a place to download a good emulator, let me know. I've been itching to play Knock Out Kings, Super Metroid, and Chrono Trigger.

Oh, and at cherryroms, they won't allow anyone to download Chrono Trigger because its protected. Is there anywhere else to download it?

does anybody still play this game? i used to play a few years ago...actually i think i'll reinstall it i feel like hc'ing a bit

Fuck yeah nigger

You have to drag the .smc file in the game's folder over the emulator, then let go. It should start up. If it still doesnt work i'll send it to you over MSN, if you have MSN.

cant go past playing that over the old IPX cables, then all of a sudden the speakers burst out with

I need to download a emulator first. What folder do I unzip the file into?

__________________

there's also Castlevania - Symphony Of The Night
great soundtrack on that one too

__________________

But the game(s) i like most of all are ZELDA
not the one on gamecube though!!!
Then i also liked all Donkey kongs, even the very first one with the climbing. Chrono trigger is great. Arkanoid. All Mario, mostly part 3 and super mario world. Rush 2 (stunt coarse). super contra.
Super nintendo is definately the best with games

EDIT:
that is the best one

Amen.

Pilot Wings, Star Wing, Mario Kart, Super Bomberman, etc, etc... Need I continue?

Dont forget those Star Wars games!!! They had NO passwords, no saving spots. Its so hard to beat with no cheats, the game are fuckign cool as shit... and damn hard.

Im gonna hook my SNES up and play

__________________

We sold our SNES about 4 years ago. How I rue that decision! I think I'll go to one of those retro gaming shops and see if I can pick up a SNES on the cheap.

__________________

FUN FUN FUN FUN FUUUUUUUNCOLAND!!

oh wait.. its called gamestop now

__________________

My favorite. That game gives such a good atmosphere! I've seen the soundtrack on ebay go up to 45$! Your the only other person on these boards mention this game besides Wally.

__________________

yay, do i win a grim and frostbitten necrocookie?

__________________

Those are hard. I think Zombies... is hard. Theres passwords but they are USELESS. Anyone whos tried to beat it would know that in order to make it through the levels later in the game, you must be equipped with tons of weapons. When you turn the game off and come back later with a password you have NOTHING. And the levels you get to with a password dont come close to providing these necessary weapons. still fun though.

morrowind for xbox is good

haha i never sold mine its still actually hooked up to my tv

__________________

Ahahaha, you wish. Whats your % on that game?

__________________

can't remember, it's been so long...only thing i can remember is i went through the inverted necrocastle

__________________

or you could just get an emulator off the internet, that way you could do it for free

although it wouldn't have that tactile grace of an old SNES

__________________

Yeh half the fun of a SNES was blowing into the cartridges trying to get the damn things to work!

__________________

I think it'll be a good investment too - SNES's will be antiques soon!

__________________

Well, I have more than one favorite. Back on the original Nes, I say my favorite had to be Blaster Master. No save points, game lasted anywhere between 1 1/2 -2 hours long. For Playstation, Castlevania:Symphonies of the Night. For ps2, hmm.. GTA 3 is gotta be one of the most challenging and interesting games for me so far. I do like the new Castlevania as well, but not like Symphonies..

that's about it, I also have Battlefield 1942 that came free with my video card, but I don't like it that much.

Doom3 rocks ^^
Battlefield is a great multiplayer game
hmm gta vice city ... I played it a bit ... was bored and delete it. Don't like it really much ...

__________________

Socom II: US Navy Seals online is fun as hell!

__________________

Vice city was lame, all the missions suck, and it has very little replay value.

Way over rated. I acually Prefer GTA 2

__________________

i just got a copy of the old nes game kung fu, thats one of the best games. its really lame by todays standerds but sooooo addicting

__________________

meh the final boss(and all the other bosses, come to think of it) was too much of a wuss to make it enjoyable...i can't wait till someone makes a real game with the engine

__________________

Can anyone help me out, whenever I download a emulator, NES9X I think, it says: Windows can't find program, This program is needed for opening files of type 'ZIP FIle'. What do I do?

__________________

GTA 2 is a nice game. I do like vice city though, just as much as GTA3. I like 2 becuase its fun. Some people are all hung up on graphics, but for me its just the fun of the game, not how it looks. playstation is an awesome system when considering the games it provides. But i repeat...
Super Nintendo is THE BEST!!!

i though GTA: vidce city was good, i liked the freedom with acquiring businesses and doing misions for them, the porno theartre ones were especially fun

__________________

I picked up a SNES a few years back, $10AU with ten games and two controllers. Best buy of my life.

It lasted exactly ten days, then stopped working for some reason, probably because my shit of a brother kept smacking the controls on the console whenever he died

The best game we had was an ancient version of Mario Brothers, Sports California (it's called something like that) or Donkey Kong, that game was addictive.

__________________

Yeh but the buisinesses did nothign but give you some lame ass missions, and some money (which didnt matter cause i used the infite money cheat)

I didnt like the whole "I rule this town" bullshit, GTA2 is better cause you work for the gang's and you gain repsect or lose respect from certain gangs depedning on what you do.. which basically decided where you were able to go in the town without getting your ass shot down.

__________________

YES!

I still haven't found that game again.

I had started FF7 back in the summer of 8th and 9th grade. I beat the first disc, and the second wouldn't load. I was fucking pissed. And last weekend, I bought it, and my data loaded for it (the one that would. ). And its turned out to be my favorite FF so far.

And yes, if you guys knew about all the stuff in the new GTA that is coming out, just about all of you would cream in your pants. Its like the though of Chuck coming back from the dead and Death coming out with a new album.

And as far as my second favorite game is concerned, that'll probably be the Grand Theft Auto series.

Hmmm, although the gameplay is a tad shitty & the acting is fucking horrible, I still think Silent Hill for the PSX is the greatest game ever because it's the only time a game has ever actually creeped me out big time.

Ugh, those horrible little teddy bear things...brrrr....

__________________

I'm with you on that. I played it once and was freaked out by those little dead kids with the knives - that is just so wrong. That has to be one of the creepiest and eeriest games ever made. *Shudders*

__________________

I'll have to check that one out. Anyone know where I can download it?

__________________

Silent Hill 4 is coming out sometime later on this month or next. I can't remember which. It should be pretty good though. I look forward to it.

well even though its not out yet medal gear solid 3 looks like its going to be fucking killer

search goole for a playstation emulater, once again im not sure if your comp can handle it.

It might though

Of course my computer will be able to handle it, no need to partranize it. I've ran Ghost Recon on here and it ran like a dream.

__________________

Emulaters take up alot of cpu usage, i have a DreamCast one and it takes up ALOT of resources. Since Playstation games look like ass then it might work..

I'll just get it for playstaion. Shouldn't be more than 5$ for used.
