Best game of all time is...?

I'm creating a discussion to find out just what is the all time best game, and or the all time worst game.I can tell you the worst game by far had to be E.T. for the Atari. Due to circumstances, it was released too early (pressures from the Movie releasal date) and it bombed big time. they even released more copies than there were Atari's sold hoping that it would boost console sales.Best game? It's was hard for me to figure it out until I thought of one game and it was instantly clarified. Super Mario 64 for the Nintebdo 64. it had everything and it was not an easy game. I stayed up late everynight playing it, thought about it during the day and powered it on instantly at my arrival home from my daily grind. I had to be around 16 or so when I was playing it and I didn't stop until I 100% completed the game. The ending wasn't nearly satisfying enough though after all the time I invested into it.I know some people may say it was too easy of a game for them and they completed it in a day or some load but I came up slowly I guess. LOL!

Punch Out!
NES

Worst game I've ever played thus far was Lord of the Rings for the SNES.I'm not really able to decide on what the best game I've ever played is, but most of my favorites are SNES games :P

I played LOTR for the SNES as well and I'll have to agree.Best game: OOT. Runners up: Resident Evil 4, Metroid Prime, Half-Life 2, Max Payne, Halo, Super Mario 64, ALTTP, Super Smash Bros., Perfect Dark, Black & White.That's just off the top of my head.

Doom fo' sho. =)But since we're talking about console games, I'd probably go with Contra: Hard Corps. That was an AWESOME game for the Sega Genesis.

Worst game: Mario is Missing. Hands down.Best game: ......Come back to me on this one...

well from my gaming experinces....Worst game: ....not sure, i enjoy most of the game that i play....Best game: Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater

My favorite game of all time has to be Gears of War. It's a new one, I know, but too addicting for it's own good.My favorite retro game has to be Harvest Moon on the SNES. I love that series for some reason.

Mario is Missing wasn't THAT bad. ::)

Actually alcaclarke said about E.T. was true - it was one of the worst console games ever made, especially for the Atari.Another REALLY bad game of some repute - a particular version of Zelda. I forgot the name actually, but this was made by some third party developers who tried to blend in cartoon video into the game to make the storyline more 'accessible' - yeah right. They ended up fucking up not only the storyline but also the game itself.You should be able to see a video of it on Gametrailers.com - they had a top 10 best/worst games of all time list on YouTube.

Best game: Urban Terror no doubt.

The game you're thinking of was for the CD-i system. There was also a Mario game made under the same conditions (and a lot of people use for references to spaghetti).

has to be connon fodder or who can forget streets of rage.......no cannon fodder best game defo :o

The SNES version of Harvest Moon :P I'm playing it right now on my iPAQ.

Replying to #14

The N64 version was 10x better. I loved it so much, I paid $40 to get a real copy.

I've noticed that usually a Nintendo (various consoles) game is named the best game in many peoples memories.
That could be why the Wii is killing all consoles in sales, even thuogh it is not nearly as powerful a system as the PS3 or 360.

mike tysons punch out for nes

i guess my fav is metal gear subsistance...
and lol the new metal gear on ps3 looks hot.. superb graphics too

Legend of Zelda OOT is obviously LEGEND in gaming world and for the us counterpart I believe it is Tony Hawk series

worst game: MK Rayearth for SNES(Yes I actually brought myself to play it through) + most of the games for 3D Disney films.(how come they even exist ???)
best game: Garou: Mark of the Wolves, Killer Instinct for SNES, Castlevania Bloodlines (Genesis) + a lot of other SNES games and a few GBAs.
