Favorite video game (other than Lords-lol)

Final Fantasy 7, may not be much now but when it released it what the shiznit

Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time

Can STILL hold it's own with the big boys.

the countless hours I spent on civilization series games...

It's hard to choose between Chrono Cross and The Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind. Chrono Cross was influential in the way I began to look at things, and was an all-around great game, but Morrowind set the bar for what open-ended RPG's should strive for...

I did play civilizationIV a lot, but also games like rise of nations and warcraft the reign of chaos and warcraft the frozen throne

Console/Turn based Rpg's, some strategy Rpg's and some strategy types.

My all time favorites:

Rpg's:
Final Fantasy Series
Breath of Fire Series
Chrono Trigger/Cross
Suikoden Series
Lufia I & II
Legend of Dragoon
Skies of Arcadia

Strategy:
Command & Conquer Series
Civilisation III

Strategy Rpg's:
Final Fantasy Tactics
Tactics Ogre - Knights of Lodis
Fire Emblem (the one on GBA)
Front Mission Series (at least those in english...)

These are just my favorites, there are many more I've played, but they wouldn't classify as favorites.

I finally got myself a PS3 the other day and I'm LOVIN Oblivion. Elder Scrolls Rule!

make sure to check out MGS 4 really kick A!

The Assassins Creed series. I just love the story, the characters, and the Hidden Blade, which is my favorite weapon in any game I've ever played. A close second is the Chakams used by Axel in Kingdom Hearts 2.

morrowind still hasnt been matched by a non elderscrolls game i love it it is my all time fav and will hold my heart for ever (just wish i could transplant the oblivion archery and stealth into it) i play it one the computer i love the vampire questlines the most of the quest oddly though ive played it for over 90000 hours ive never finished the main story line anyway i fully recomend it its an endless joy

Man, that is a really tough decision. I think I'll go with Tales of Symphonia. Pretty good story, and ALOT of stuff to do.
