what's your altime favourite game?
I'd have to say that mine would be Final Fantasy X, or any of the Final Fantasy games released on PlayStation. Its a very addictive game... and its good to finish...
at the moment i've been playing Kingdom Hearts, and it's actually pretty good...
i like RPG games but i also like strategy games, Age Of Empires II: The Conquerors would have to be my fav one of those...
so how about you? what's your ultimate game?

Well, i'd have to go with the classics first, I spent months playing
these damn things back in the mid 80's and early 90's
- Space Quest 1 (Best) - 5
- Kings Quest
- Police Quest
- Leisure Suit Larry
New stuff
- Unreal Tournament
- Starcraft (most addicitve game ever made).
Hmm, wonder if I missed anything...

My favorite FPS game has to be Unreal Tournament. My favorite adventure game has to be a tie between The Space Quest series and Grim Fandango.
I absolutely loved the atmosphere of Grim Fandango. I recently replayed it, unfortunetly the graphics didn't seem as good as I remember them being, but I guess times change.

i gotta say, the new games aren't half as good as the
classics.
the new leisure suit larry (5) didn't make me think much,
same goes for the new kings quest 7 (not really new
but it was on a CD instead of a 5 1/2 disk).
lots of shooting, not enough thinking. Half Life would
be the only exception, made by Sierra of course (although
I hate counter strike).
just another opinion from an old school gamer..
and i played all those classic sierra games on my Apple IIe,
that's when they still used DOS (you had to boot it into
memory from the 5 1/2 inch disk). man, that sure brings
back some good memories.

Speaking of the Apple IIe, one of my favorite all time games, which I put into its own grouping, is Leather Godesses of Phobos for my old Apple IIe.
It was a text adventure game where you start out in a bar, and get abducted by the Leather Godesses of Phobos. I played that game for two years, and I never figure out how to beat it.
It had all sorts of cool features like scratch-n-sniff pads that you had to scratch when prompted in game. It was also one of the funniest games I ever played, just thinking about it makes me want to find some emulators and play it again

lol. i was never too crazy about text adventure stuff. not enough
imagination i guess, or patience.
the scratch-sniff thing reminds me of the little hint books
you could buy from Sierra for their classics back in the day.
the book would be written in invisible text, and you'd have
a special marker which would only work on a very small
section of the book and then run out.
god, i wish that old beast was still alive. i fried it when
i tried to "upgrade" memory. the macs are nothing compared
to the good old apples.
mmmm.

My favorite all time game: Everquest (not the stupid PS2 one, the original PC online one)
Kingdom Hearts has my attention as well, could be a pretty good game minus the disney characters, i like the idea of an all encompasing(sp?) game though.

Oh yeah. Although I've never actually played it I hear Everquest
is a great and addictive game.

Addictive aint the word......its like you need a patch to get off it. I finally quit for half a year, but now im back playing again for 3 months or so...its ridiculous, you hear about people trying to quit playing but they cant, i think i finally got my play time under control though, i only play three times a week now, but for pretty much the whole day.....
