The greatest list of games I ever played while using pizza-grease-stained controllers.

I used to say Mega Man 2 was my favorite game of all-time based solely on the fact that I could play it back-to-back(-to-back) without getting bored with it. It's true! I love it dearly. But still...
...Vagrant Story may be the more important game to me personally. The quality of the storytelling was revelatory and it changed how I perceived not just game music but music in general.
How much can one man love Richter's bad voice acting? This much.
FFIV has the most of my favorites across the series: music, cast, dungeons, finale, and final boss. I feel so strongly about it that not even playing The After Years could ruin all that for me!
When I look back on my gaming career in 30 years or so, there's a possibility that Nocturne may just have been the most important game I ever played.
Is it strange that I consider Castlevania IV to be my favorite Castlevania game, yet rank Symphony higher on a general list? It may not have Michael G.'s performance, but multi-directional whipping is nearly as important.
There's really little original you can say about Super Metroid at this point, even from a personal standpoint. However, I did name my cat "Sammy" after Samus, and she's nice.
I've played Chrono Trigger a couple dozen times and have a NG+ file to prove it! I mean, having played it that many times has killed my motivation to replay it this past decade or more, but as far as "personally significant" games go, Chrono Trigger is it.
Most of my love of Final Fantasy comes from the original Nintendo Power strategy guide for it, which I leafed through and studied so much it fell apart. Who knew memorizing it could make an obtuse game like this one so much more enjoyable?
Ever get the feeling that a game is created just for you? (I do, and it's Strange Journey.)
