Your top three games

[wkw427]

Top three games, don't just say a game you are playing now, because come five years you may not like to play it.

What are the three games that you have had for at least five years, yet always see yourself going back to it?
What game has some kind of charm in its old age that makes you smile even though you know it is flawed and outdated compared to todays standards of video gamyness?
Only thing thatI ask of you, you must of owned the game for more then five years and you must of played the game in the past year?

For me in no real order,
1602 A.D. I remember the day that I bought the game, I ate at Long John Silvers. I got it from Kmart. I remember reading the manual, which was about 200 pages, and looking at its amazing boxart. It had a huge and colorful boxart. I remember finding the level editor which I had no idea existed at the time.

Simcity 4. I remember getting this game, too. Well not the game, but the expansion, RushHour, at some store at a mall that doesn't exist anymore. I remember it running really slow on my old computer, and I upgraded its ram from 64 to 130mb just to run the game I've spent countless hours on this and I wub it

Fast Food Tycoon 2, also known as Pizza Connection 2 in Europe. A vastly improved version of the first game, and it is real shame that it wasn't as popular..


Other games that are worth a mention, Majesty1. I love this game, and it is a real shame that my computer is too good to run it. A big disappointment that I hate how the new games engine feels..

Roller Coaster Tycoon 3 (i think its been out five years..)- I got this game back when it came out, and damn. I played, and played, and played. And it only got better with people making custom scenery and rides and parks. It was great.

Sims 2 -What can I say, I love the Sims, and Simulator games. This game brought me tons of enjoyments, even though I only have the pets expansion pack.

SPY FOX!!!!!!!!- GOOD GOD I LOVE THIS GAME. If you haven't played it, you must obtain it immediately, whether legally or non-legally, and play it or your life is not complete.

Kingdom Hearts
Loved the game, combined colorful Disney characters with awesome Final Fantasy characters in a very fun way.

Banjo Kazooie
As you can probably tell sense i'm here right now.
I LOVE platformers, and it's the king. I always liked to run around and have fun in it as a kid, I only recently played it to actually win.

I was going to put Fable 2 here, but thats rather recent sooooooo...

Pokemon
A combination of the childhood memories of pokemon cards, the anime, and Blue, and a very deep and strategic RPG keeps me buying the newest versions every time.
I've got Blue, Yellow, Gold, Ruby, and Diamond, and I'm hopefully going to get HeartGold

Thats the longest post I've ever made

Games I've had for more than five years? Hmm... I guess Banjo-Tooie, Super Mario 64, and Donkey Kong Country 2, I guess.

[Pies]

1. SuperFrog - I fudging love this game.
2. Banjo-Tooie - obvious me being on a rare fansite and all
3. Pokemon series in general - can't have enough pokemons.

[MetalHeroOfTime]

Banjo Tooie-My first Rare Game.
Pokemon Yellow-First Nintendo game.
Super Mario 64-first console game.

I really love all three.

[TheDarkFalcon]

Banjo Kazooie/Tooie (don't make me choose lol), Super Mario 64, and Kingdom Hearts without a doubt.

[Andre]

Super Mario Bros. (NES)
It was my first video game (along with Duck Hunt), and it's still the one I always find that I can go back to and enjoy. I've beaten the game countless times. Whether it's going through one level at a time, no warp pipes, or just go as fast as humanly possible, I always have a good time.

Halo 2
I played a disturbing amount of Halo 2 multiplayer. Like, to the point of madness. I think I may like Halo 3 a little bit better in term of multiplayer, but the weapons and maps in Halo 2 were perfectly balanced. I always enjoyed playing Midship, Zanzibar, and Lockout.

Animal Crossing
This game most likely gave me some sort of disease. While it certainly didn't have the long-lasting effect of Halo and SMB, when I did play Animal Crossing, I played it for hours and hours every day. You had to, to play the game. Even if it was searching for shells or waking up at midnight to fish, it was awesome.

[DarthConker]

The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion: Seriously, I've plugged months into this game, and I still haven't done everything. I REALLY hope Bethesda gets TESVI (or however you put 5 in Roman numerals) out before 2011, but improves on it vastly, like adding Morrowind and Oblivion's good factors and adding a ton of new features as well.
Banjo-Kazooie: Really? Do I have to explain?
Fallout 3: I've done everything in it. EVERYTHING . Took me almost 100 hours, but I still love the hell out of it.

[wkw427]

Oh yes I should of mentioned RCT!
Take out fast foof tycoon and replace it with RCT1.

Seriously, RCT1 was the FIRST video game I ever had!!!

[chillywilly42]

Wow, geez, this is tough! I'll have to go with:
Super Smash Bros. Melee- I absolutely adore the entire series, but if I had to choose out of all of them, this'd be the one. Sure, it had a great deal of unfair mechanics a very advanced player could use to win with ease, but it was fast-paced(probably the most so out of the three), very fun to play with friends, and just overall great.

Banjo-Tooie- Yup, I'm sure you all saw this one coming. It was an amazing sequel, building upon everything that was so awesome about the first game. Great music, gameplay, and dialogue, to name a few.

Marvel Vs. Capcom 2- My favorite arcade game of all time, and the console port isn't too shabby, either. Like Melee, I may not be the greatest at it, but it's always a blast to play. With over 50 characters, each with cool specials and the first 3-on-3 battles in fighting games ever, this is a game you just can't miss out on.

Banjo Kazooie: It was my first game and even without the endless mysterys and crude humor, it is a perfect example of what makes platforming da bomb.

Donkey Kong 64: This game is a cross between the good of Tooie and Kazooie, with out a bear, a bird, a witch, and some other things. It had great multiplayer, it had a lot to collect, and most importantly, it was so huge, it needed the expasion pak.

Sadly Brawl can't count, so next up is Spyro: Year of the dragon. It's the first game I 100% and I've done it way to many times. It was the best Spyro ever!

[RiderOnTheStorm]

Animal Crossing got me horribly addicted, to the point where I would spend a day walking around a town doing nothing, and loving every minute of it

Donkey Kong 64 scares the **** out of me and makes me depressed for no reason at all, but I love it

Banjo Kazooie gives me good memories of when life was simpler.

[OldKingCoal]

Donkey Kong 64, the first game I ever remember playing, nostalgic and with lots to do to keep me coming back.

Starfox adventures, can't get enough of that ending.

Simpsons hit and run, I just love driving around aimlessly.

[hardband]

In no particular order and without falling to nastalgia:

Kingdom Hearts: I just love everything about this game

Rachet and Clank: This or maybe number two because they both rule!

Banjo Kazooie: because i couldn't think of anything else
