@ Butterbean

CoIin

StormyStudio

oooh....tricky....One...I'm only allowed one....Hmmmm.....

Some real great ones have already been mentioned...

I'm gonna go by number of hours spent playing...

Ok, old and old ish, new ish

Mario Kart on the snes....

Quake (the original) on PC,

and Resident Evil 3 on the Wii, (versions since then have been rubbish and on rails).

JCFord

ELITE - The classic 1980's space sim.
I love it I still play it now on my Macbook Pro!

JoshKahane

Old but not as old as some mentioned and since then has had crazy popularity and huge success. The Sims. The original version, seems it just feels the best for me being the original, and somehow the new versions just can't stand up to it. I hope you guys see what I mean. Just has that classic goodness.

Thats just one and me also not saying any already mentioned. My ultimate, yes Super Mario Bros.

Oh crikey just thought of the first Prince of Persia as well, blimey there are loads.

Urrm, Crash Bandicoot, Spyro (PSOne versions). They keep coming so I'll stop there, hehe.

Tiny Monster, Love MM II, the only game I've beaten at least 10 times

I also love Yoshi's Island, and forgot about that one, so that would be tied with MM II for me

So firemaple and Tinymonster you beat me to it!

By the way, what's the diff between Yoshi's Island for the Super Famicom and U.S?

It is hard to pick just ONE so all in all I'd say top 5:

Mega Man II

Yoshi's Island SNES

Castlevania SOTN Ps1

Legend of Mana/Seiken Densetsu series all systems

Wario Ware original GBA

@JCFord - great great pick there - a fellow elite fan! Awesome

However, the title of 'Favourite game of all time' is...

Tetris.

I kid you not. It's the only game I've played on one format or another, consistently, since it launched in 1990 with the Game Boy.

butterbean

Tetris is one very good game QS!

Did you ever pick up the "Tengen" version of Tetris that was pulled from the shelves and became a rare gem?

ktfright

Super mario world, or Sonic and Knuckles.

Eastbound

Oh yeah and Final Fantasy Tactics Advance, Advance Wars, and Pokemon. Spent so much time on those- especially Pokemon.

ktfright

Oh crap, I forgot pokemon red!!!

Wow that's crazy expensive! Do you have a lot of neo geo pocket games?

jhaas

I'm a fan of Ratchet & Clank.

butterbean

Danger Cats!

SO many options... I don't know what my favorite would be, but this one I have some really good memories playing. The original Deus Ex! Surprised not to see if on the list.

I LOVE Mario 3, (I could play for days too), but since it was taken Deus Ex is really good too.
