FlipperDesert's Definitive Best Ever Favourite Games List of Top 10 Undisputed Favourite Games up to 2015
Thought it was about time I created a list so I remember what the games I've liked most were when asked the question.

The first 'Bioware-style' RPG. I played through this, over and over again, on a long summer holiday as a 14-year-old. If you ask me nothing they've made since comes close to how good this game was.
I only put this one on here, but the other main MGS games could have easily taken up most of the list, all for different reasons. What a bizarre, well-polished game.
The game that caused me, and most people I know in my age group, to bruise their shins trying to do a kickflip on a shit £20 skateboard.
Pokémon Gold is a game that will forever hold a special place for me. I was the first in my street to get it as an import from the US, and as my memory serves I actually think I managed to catch 'em all except Celebi (because event Pokémon are a pain to get here.) I don't think any other game has been as intergral to a stage of my life as Pokémon.
Besides the fantastic multiplayer, one thing that kept me coming back to this game was the chance to break it in weird ways with a friend, from finding the pacifist Grunt in the final level to trying to launch a warthog onto a plateau using 100 grenades.
Makes me wish I had friends at school. :(
When I was in college, a friend said to me, "All these people keep telling me to quit smoking, and I want them to fuck off because I actually really like smoking." Warcraft is the same, where perhaps it's easy to lose a lot of time and money to it, but I was kinda happy to do it since it felt so rewarding.
My first multiplayer game. Smaller scope and a little more focused than Age of Empires, but I think that worked to its benefit and made an extremely good game where AoE felt like a sandbox in ways.
Is it bad I use this to practise instead of a real drum kit? I still play this, and I probably will for some time.
Frantic multiplayer and a great challenge mode kept me playing for a long, long time. One of my first PS2 games, and I didn't regret it one bit.
