I wanted to start a post for a game.

What are the top 5 video games of all time?  I know this is a music site, but I have had fun with some of the other posts.  This can be any genre which is also hard to compare, but it is the simplest.  This can include your favorites.  I am not trying to take away from the other post of which games you play now.  But, I wanted to have one for all time.

Contra – Nintendo
Tekken 2 – Playstation 1
Knights of the Old Republic I – Xbox
Age of Empires – online pc
Super Tecmo Bowl - Nintendo

haha nice same platforms more modern cept metroid. but yea i dare someone to say that theres a bigger PC game than starcraft. Super metroid for SNES was the shiznit and i loved it dearly back in the day.

In no particular order:

Super Mario 2: Yoshi's Island (SNES) - God-like entertainment.
Final Fantasy 7 (PS) - Storyline that beats most games. FF10 looked good too but never really played it.
Klonoa - Door To Phantomile (PS) Stunning FMV's for it's time and the first 2.5D (In between 2D & 3D) game worth playing.
Halo 1, 2 & 3 (XBOX/XBOX 360) - This shouldn't need an explanation but in short, amazing stuff. I have to put all of the games down though because once you play through all 3 of them, one after the other, you feel like you have genuinely achieved something important in your life. *Yes, I'm a Halo Addict*
God of War (PS2) - Honest to god, I've NEVER actually played this game but I could have watched my mate slice and dice for hours on end before begging for a controller to slice and dice also...

ps. Zelda: Ocarina of Time - definitely agree with that AMAZING game...but I ran out of top numbers... :'(

In any order of course.

Oregon trail (Apple II)
Final Fantasy III (SNES)
FFVII (PSX)
Castelvania: Symphony of The Night (PSX)
Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time (N64)

Honorable mention:  Super Mario Bros (NES)

In this order:
Starcraft
World of Warcraft
Counter Strike
Diablo 2
Warcraft 2
