We don't have any TV based game systems, but up until last summer I was addicted to first person shooter PC games.

Started out with the
Quake2 titles, & moved on.
My absolute favorite is
System Shock2. I love it so much that I'm spoiled for other games; nothing else seems as interesting or multi-faceted. The
Half-Life series was lots of fun until they started concentrating on the MMP aspects. Personally, I have no interest in playing online with a bunch of obsessive teens (I'd rather post online with a bunch of obsessive adults!).

I like the Myst series. Lots. Their new, rat-bastard publisher released the latest one for PC only, though, so I am excluded.

I am on the third of the .hack series... a sort of RPG inside an RPG. Makes fun of Final Fantasy and Everquest... sort of like playing a MMORPG without the actual pains in the ass of playing a MMORPG.
It isn't really turn-based like the Final Fantasy RPGs. In .hack, you get to run up to a monster, wildly pounding on the 'attack' button. I like that.

I like the freaky, look over your shoulder kind of games. Silent Hill 2 and 3 for the PS2 are awesome, and I am looking into Fatal Frame 2 and Manhunt as well.

What in the hell are all of you talking about??? Sounds too complicated and confusing. I like games where you gobble up balls (or Balz.)

I usually like playing RPGs the most. The Zelda series was always fun, dragon worrior, final fantasy, .hack etc.
Both the Grand Theft Auto's (I never get tired of slaughtering pedestrians)
Lately I've been playing Advance Wars 1 and 2.

Ever since 1991, I've been hooked on FPS (first-person shooters) for the PC, and I've made a blood vow to buy every game from
Id Software that they make.
Right now, I'm eargerly waiting for Half-Life 2 and DOOM III to come out. I built my latest PC with components stricly for playing these games at optimum resolution. 2004 is going to be an awesome year, game wise.!

All time best game is Hunt the Wumpus for the Texas Instruments computer. Honorable mention goes to Q-bert and Defender.
For PS2 I love Vice City, Gran Tourismo 3, and Tekken 3.
PS1 is all about Tekken 2.
For Mac/PC Deus Ex is one of the coolest games I've ever played.
Also loved Ultima Underworld. Played Medal of Honor Allied Assault for like a year straight but my Powerbook can't keep up with the new version. And Unreal Tournament is a classic.
For Nintendo, Link: Legend of Zelda II is awesome, and Super Mario Bros. 2.

After wasting countless hours on FFX (100+-). I put down the controller, and abandoned the PS2. It's now relegated to DVD playback.
Yeah, I just spent a month defeating Sin.. I'm soooo cool, I'm sooo bad... I'm sooo fucking dorky!
FUCKING WASTE OF TIME!
Celty- If you want to borrow my copy of Vice City I'll send it to you for a few months....

Just picked up Manhunt. I can't play it much as it is too much for my three-year old to watch. (Ya think!) Gameplay seems a bit repetive so far but I am only about an hour into it.

for ps2
ico - seriously one of the best games ever...
deus ex - if you like a stealthy styles fps
ssx tricky or ssx3
i am really diggin the new prince of persia game on gamecube... there's a ps2 version...
what sort of games do you like? i'm having a hard time thinking of ps2 games... i rarely break it out anymore... i keep the xbox around for halo, panzer dragoon orta and STEEL BATTALION... but, i mostly play on the cube nowadays... the new zelda, prince of persia, ssx, viewtiful joe, ikaruga, for a while i was hooked on that damned animal crossing... the lotr games are cool if you like hack/slash games or the movies...
