GOLDENEYE (N64) - The Best Multiplayer of its time, good even now, with lots of secrets and a great single player mode.
METAL GEAR SOLID (PSX) - Atmospheric is not the word, superb only let down by its replayability being poor.
MARIO 64 (N64) - Before this game I doubted that the platform genre would survive the transition from 2D to 3D, this blew away those doubts.
DRIVER (PSX) - Pushes the playstation to its limits, a change from run of the mill racing games. Only let down by the ridiculous difficulty setting on the last level.
RESIDENT EVIL 2 (PSX) - I love the Resident Evil series, but this is my favourite due to its great playability and with lots of alternative ways to complete the game, a game nobody should be without.
LEGEND OF ZELDA (N64) - The ZELDA series comes of age in this superb game, with hours of gameplay, and great visuals.
MARIOKART (SNES) - My favourite SNES game, and better than the N64 version by far, tones of secrets great lastability.
CANNON FODDER (AMIGA) - Simple, yet addictive gameplay. Superb fun to play and with a great sense of humour.
FLASHBACK (AMIGA) - Excellent action/adventure game, great storyline. Excellent cut-scenes added to the games atmosphere.
SONIC 2 (Megadrive) - Excellent 2 player mode, great platforming action from Sega.
Ok. that's my top 10 games, I thoroughly recommend all the above titles to anyone, they're great. What are your favourite 10 games, or what are your top 10 games on each format (e.g. playstation, N64, etc..) ??

1. Pokémon Yellow (GB) It's so addictive and I love the multiplayer options.
2. Pokémon Pinball (GBC) Once again it's so addictive and the rumble feature'll have you going for ages!
3. The Legend Of Zelda: A Link To the Past (SNES) this is the best Zelda game ever and it's on the best console ever! I still haven't found all the secrets!
4. Mario Bros (NES) IT was the first 8-bit game I ever played and I thought it was amazing!
5. Fifa 97 (PC) It's the only football game I've ever had and I found this to be so playable.
6. Command & Conquer (PC) It started the C&C series and is amazing. I loved the story line especially seeing Seth get shot in the head!
7. Sonic The Hedgehog (MD) I never had a megadrive but I played this game a lot. Just like Mario Bros it was amazing!
8. Star Trek Starfleet Academy (PC) It's got excellent graphics without a 3D card and the resolution of the movie sequences are amazing!
9. Goldeneye 007 (N64) The first FPS for the N64. It has amazing graphics, amazing lastability and I've never got bored of doing the control level where Natalia always gets killed!
10. Super Mario Kart (SNES) It's so playable and I never get bored!
11. Total Annihilation (PC) Fast Action, total destruction what more could you ask for?
12. Theme Hospital (PC) I like seeing the doctors pop the heads of the patients! The games really funny and made me laugh!

14. War of the Worlds (PC) this game equires a lot of skill and patience. The hardest part is building your armies!
15. Pokémon Blue (GB) It's a great version of the game but Yellows better! I use Blue to back up some of my Pokémon in case they get deleted!
