What is your favourite game of all time, and why?

Half Life 2

Love everything about it - and not just the game itself, but what it did to push gaming forward. I've played it through once per year since it's release and it's the only game on my whole Steam collection that I've completed as "Perfect Game" with all the achievements.
 
Return To Castle Wolfenstein was the first PC game to really grab my attention, Good story and excellent MP. What is needed is a remake of the whole game SP/MP on a modern game engine, I live in hope.
 
Star Wars Galaxies for me was probably the most fun I had in a game, I think it boiled down to the huge PvP battles and the wonderful crafting aspect along with lightsabers. Then they ****ed it up.

CS 1.3->1.6 also gets an honorable mention, that was such a great game and I played it for so many years. Just a shame people moved to source, I understand they did it for the prizes, I just wish everyone had said 'no, this is ****'.
 
half life 2, epic game that i now feel urge to return to

tomb raider, at each level i could not wait to see what awaited me at the next

mario kart, the most fun you can have with your pants on
 
Ultima Online - Is how an MMO should be done. Everything was player driven, trade, politics, towns, factions. The community and pvp was simply perfect, nothing like seeing that notorious player name pop up on your screen and running for your life :) No other game has ever come close for me.

For SP it has to be FF7 for me. So much to do and at the time it were released, it was nothing short of amazing :D

So many games to look out for!

I've only played half life on the xbox where I wasn't overly impressed with it, but probably diddn't get far enough in for the story to get good. I imagine it could be so much better with kb and mouse though, so will keep my eye out for it!

Stalker and thief series sound worth a look too, but you guys are taking the blame if my o/h finds out how many unplayed games i'm stockpiling...
 
Team Fortress Classic ~99-2002

The amount of time I wasted on this game was unreal. Euro leagues, wptfcl, wp ladder, bwtfcl etc etc. Mercing. "watching" the uk/euro team take on 'Mericas finest on IRC just as the bunnyhopping controversy was taking off (pre 1.6). The USA team refused to use this tactic and had thier collective bottoms handed to them. Uber clans like ~A~ and [DW]. Uber players like imm0 and Runesky. Hearing of players with £1k+ phone bills for one months' use :o.

 
It's difficult to choose between HL2 + Episodes or Oblivion (I haven't played Skyrim yet)

If I had my arm twisted then I guess I would choose Oblivion, it's just so massive and the modding community meant that I could have spent just as much time playing Oblivion as WOW or any other MMO. Spent almost 5 years playing Oblivion and nothing else.
