right here is your chance to say which game is with out doubt the best ever made.
For me there are a great deal to choose from,being a gamer since way back when we had the spectrum/Amiga and the beloved c64.
Now the list may be long but having playied games way back then for many years, being know as a nerd by school mates cause back then computers were the nerd tools.
Then after school had finnished along came college and back in the early eight's I left computers behind and got myself a life. :)
Three years ago I forked out over £1000 for a top range Pc 850Mhz processor the works, my eye's lit up when I started playing Half-life. My god I said to myself thing's have moved on since the c64 and spectrum days.
This is like being in a movie and for hours on end I would play half-life determined to go that little bit further or suck trying to get throught the maze packed with Voltigores I didn't get much sleep then I can tell you.
Now I have been ranting on about half-life but that is not the greatest game in my opinon oh no.
Half-life is by modern standards a work of art every game produced thease day's is compared to half-life and rated accordingly, we would not have tfc or Counter-Strike if it had not been for half-life.
For shear out right addiction and play-abillity a game which I spent hour upon hour playing and if I dug it out the cupboard and set it up I would spend more hours playing it, the game Manic Miner.
The grand daddy of computer games it had it all shear playing power once u mastered a level the nexted was even more challenging and just as u got to that level u would lose the timing u mastered for the level before.
Now this is my opion u may think I am wrong but forget the fact the graphics are outdated this is not the point, the lasting playabillity of a game is what matter's.
This surley was the most played game ever!!!

i'd have to say final fantasy 7 and metal gear solid, these are probably one of the first games that really sucked me in to the deep story lines.
SEGA NiGHTS! on the Saturn!

Yeah, I know. Nothing comes close to being so crap. I hate that game.
As a cool American would say, "It's totally bogas, dude!"

Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time on N64. Best game ever without a doubt. Nothing comes close.
hmmm... Which one to choose....
There are so many out there.
DK Country for the SNES
Jetpac on the N64 and another console which I can't remember
Space Invaders
Perfect Dark for N64
Perfect Dark for GBC
Red Faction for PS2
GTA3 for PS2
Mario World for SNES
Lemmings for the Amiga
Conkers Bad Fur Day for the N64
They all draw 1st place on my GreatGameometer!

I think that there is no best game ever but there are a hell of a lot of games that i would choose:
GOLDENEYE is one of the most fun multiplayer games ever. METAL GEAR SOLID was extremely cool, one of the fist kind of games wear you had to actually be a spy as oppose to shoot everything that got in your way.
DEVIL MAY CRY carnage with style, nuff said.
GT3 the most realistic racer ever.
SHENMUE wicked graphics (at the time) and very deep storyline. I could go on but thats my top few

I think "best games ever" should be the ones that redifined that particular genre. For example, my two best games ever are Goldeneye and Super Mario World. Goldeneye because when it came out, developers had to stop and think really hard about what could beat it, instead of doing another tired rip-off of the Quakes and Dooms of today. Super Mario World because That had everything which you wish to see in a platform/action/adventure game.

How can you include games which by all intents and purposes, have only just been released? the others where good choices though, as GTA and THPS will be in the future :)
