I would say that Super Mario 64 is my favorite game ever. Not sure what the best game is though... What do you all think?

The Curse of 1080p60Fp Tombs: The Game on PlaystationXoneWiiloveU BEST.GAME.EVER

for real thogh it's impossible to name best game of all time because every one will have different opinion on it

Heisenburger3614d ago

Favorite wise it would be a toss up between Ocarina of Time and Snake Eater. Honorable mentions being FFVII, MGS, Mass Effect 2, and Majora's Mask. "Best" is surely impossible.

MysticStrummer3614d ago

Demon's Souls for me I think. I've never been that immersed in a game before or since. Finishing that game gave me such a feeling of accomplishment, like I really had completed an epic quest and overcome many dangers.

MGS3, Silent Hill 1 and 2, Resident Evil 2, Oddworld Abe's Oddysee, Shadow of the Colossus, the early Tomb Raiders up to The Last Revelation. Those are just what I can remember at the moment, but there are many worthy candidates for my personal Best, and I could keep naming titles that go back to the 70s if I wanted to go on and on.

Based on facts or opinions?
Personally for me - Chrono Cross and World of Warcraft, but only at time I first played them.

Not sure how I got people to click disagree when all I said is that Super Mario 64 IS MY favorite game.

My favorite game of all time will likely go on to be the first BioShock game. At the time I played it, I had no hard drive to save my game, so I restarted it at least 50 times. But to this day.. I just love the game, the story, the scenery. It was just simply amazing.

Now for the best game ever... That's a hard choice for me. I'm not old enough to own a full collection of NES games or anything like that.. My first console that I owned myself was PS1, so i'd go on to say Final Fantasy 7 for me. And even during that time, I didn't have a memory card to save my game, so I had to restart that 20+ times as well.

fonger083615d ago

That's such a tough question, especially to those of us who've been playing since the 80s. Between, LofZ, SM3, SMW, LofZLTP, FFIII, FFVII, CrashBand 2, SM64, LofZOoT, GoW2, GTAVC, Halo2, BioShock, Fallout, UC2, it's hard to choose. But I guess if I had to it would be OoT, that is by far the game I gone back to the most.

(I just realized I like a lot of sequels... interesting)

60FramesPerSecond3615d ago

Thats really subjective. i enjoyed the halo and forza horizon series along with smash and pokemon more than any other, but that dont make them the best games out there. if i enjoy fps games, im gonna like a great fps game more than a great strategy game.

LogicStomper3614d ago

Your name, but in the perfect future.

affrogamer3614d ago

MGS 3 is really the best stealth game ever!

Two Decades Later, the Original Splinter Cell is Still a Masterpiece

They don't make games like this anymore.

Too dated in my book. The AI is way too unpredictable to be acceptable today. It's definitely a game of its time.

Jingsing7d ago (Edited 7d ago )

Agreed with those sentiments. The quality of the CPU controlled characters make or break a stealth game and they are pretty poor in all the Splinter Cell games by today's standard. This is what led me to playing Spies vs Mercs all the time in later games just to get a better stealth experience from a real person. Arguably Sony are making better stealth games albeit not Tom Clancy stuff.

TheProfessional7d ago (Edited 7d ago )

You should stick with fortnite or one of the countless bloodborne style games then. What a joke.

rlow17d ago

I had a good time with the game. It is a product of its time. But when it came out it was a must have game for a lot of people. I wish Ubisoft would make another game in the series or at least a reboot.

vgvill7d ago

They are making a remake, I think. I loved the original game when it was released, but I tried to play it again in recent years and just couldn't get on with it. The same with the older Hitman games.

PrecursorOrb7d ago

Yeah chaos theory still holds up though I gotta say. If you’re a fan of the series I highly suggest you go back to that one. Ubi has said they are remaking sc for “modern audiences”. I don’t have a lot of faith for the future of that company

Chocoburger6d ago (Edited 6d ago )

Due to the lack of modern stealth games, and me constantly playing the MGS series, I've been looking for alternative stealth games to play, and went back and re-played the SC series recently. I wouldn't call SC1 or SC:PT masterpieces, there are AI issues, they're very much trial-and-error games, and that can lead to a lot of frustration. I also found the stories in this series to be boring, uninteresting, and just sloppily told. Cinematics are also of poor quality for both in-game scenes and CG cut-scenes, the soundtrack didn't leave any impression on me either.

Chaos Theory is better, but there was still a lot of room for improvement, and Double Agent (old gen ver.) was a sloppy mess that ended up a regression from CT. But still, at least they tried back then, these days Ubi-junk doesn't even try to make good games!

A Matter Of Trust: What The Game Industry Should Do To Win Gamers Back

Skewed and Reviewed have written an Opinion Piece covering issues in the gaming industry, how current issues were issues years ago, and what can be done to help restore consumer trust.

anast12d ago

Nothing. It's up to the gamers to stop consuming content from companies that they don't agree with.

Garethvk12d ago

How do you know if you agree with it or not unless you play it? Which without conventions forces gamers to rely on trailers. Perhaps Demos should be made more frequently. But companies need to do better as well.

anast12d ago

Wait until release. Watch Gameplay. Exercise patience.

Garethvk12d ago

But is that not what they have now? Tons of gameplay or are you talking about watching actual gamers play it versus the trailers and streams? The big issue is that some companies pay streamers and influencers and they create content but for me; that is hardly a fair, unbiased, and factual look at a game.

1nsomniac12d ago

Get rid of the suits in the industry and job done!!

Garethvk12d ago

They usually are attached to the money sadly. It would be nice to have gamers in charge but you have so much money invested that business people are needed. Hence the issue; you need people who know business but are also gamers who know have an eye to the community. It sounds simple in theory that if you give gamers quality games that they want to play; money will be made. But that is not always so.
