OMG! You choose Skyrim! What the fuck is wrong with you? Bloody oath! My grandmother could of made a better choice and she doesn't even like video games.

You shouldn't make assumptions why people pick certain games, even if they say it's their favourite there maybe a very damn good reason for that. Have some faith in people, not everyone is ignorant in every way that they can't have a legit reasons for their choices.Gabanuka said:Silly Escapist.
The thing is you're thinking about this on personal preference and your favorite game. My favorite game of all time is TES: IV but i know it isnt the best ever. The best game ever from a design stand point is Yoshi's Island for the SNES.
Prove me wrong.
Edit: anyone else noticing way more "I have no avatar" avatars around. Is this a glitch or something?
I agree that HL2 is one of the best games ever. However it seems like most of the decisions here are based on what games people loved the most, obviously that's a big aspect of games but when asked what the best is you have to be a bit more objective. Even I gave into that bias, its impossible to pick the best of so many genres so I just picked the game I loved the most which I feel is perfect design wise.Nazulu said:snip
You know what's funny is years ago when that first came out I wouldn't even try it. I didn't like the name. I thought adding, 'super' to the name was silly and so for a few years I ignored it. Then one day, I forget where I was but I played it for the first time. I was just like.. wow.. and I have to agree, I've never quite felt that way toward any other game since (except maybe SoTN). I even went back and played it a year ago and it still looks great and feels fun to me.ShinyCharizard said:In my opinion the best game ever made is Super Metroid. Everything about that game is just perfect. The atmosphere, music, exploration, world design, combat, controls and graphics are simply fantastic, and it is still just as good to playthrough today as it was 18 years ago. Truly a game that will withstand the test of time forever.
So, fellow escapists, what in your opinion is the best game ever?
Edit: Should have wrote this earlier. I'm curious as to your personal best experience of a game ever. Not, the must be best game by default due to factors ect'.
You're always going to get most people just yelling a name or reviews saying the story is good (literally, that's all some reviews say, even Yahtzee goes into more detail than that!), but this isn't a serious thread at all.Gabanuka said:I agree that HL2 is one of the best games ever.

I doubt my post is going to change your mind I mean it really is just an opinion. I don't think you can objectively call a game the best ever.Nazulu said:OMG! You choose Skyrim!

Any way, opinions will always be just opinions until someone explains them or backs them up. C'mon, tell us why you choose Skyrim.
Honestly, I thought it was great at the beginning and I loved the detailed crystal cave part, but unfortunately it was easy to trick the computer opponents, and I found it disappointing that I could easily create over-powered armour and get over-powered skills. I'd still be playing it if it wasn't for that which is a shame.
Mate, the point here is not to convince any one, it's too express ourselves, so let loose like me.RedDeadFred said:I doubt my post is going to change your mind I mean it really is just an opinion. I don't think you can objectively call a game the best ever.
I chose Skyrim because its world is incredibly immersive. I love that you can do pretty much anything you want. It's a very replaybable game if you like to rp like I do. Then of course there are the mods. They add even more replay value and though I don't personally use very many of them, they still add to the game. The combat is decent for melee (I really don't mind it. It feels weighty and gritty to me). The combat is good for mages. The combat is really fun (although op) for assassins. The world is beautiful and I like the low fantasy style. I feel like I'm playing an open world lOTRO game. Keep in mind that this is all my opinion and yours will probably differ somewhere along there (or maybe everywhere).
What? No Wizardry VII: Crusaders of the Dark Savant? I never actually played VI although I thought VII was pretty damn amusing and had interesting puzzles as well. Also, who can forget the thermal pineapple.Archangel357 said:Ultima VII: The Black Gate. Or Wizardry VI: Bane of the Cosmic Forge.
Yeah, I'm old.
