Reverse Gravity from old school D&D even though it's never had a satisfying computer game interpretation (odd as it should be pretty simple to code). Wormhole from City of Heroes is just insanely hilarious when you discover the range involved. Teleport a group of enemies either a mile off into the horizon or even better a mile directly above you? Fun fun fun. Singularity was amazingly brilliant pre-nerf as well.

Quite clearly this:

Crud, there's no a decent video of Magus casting Dark Matter on youtube. What is wrong with people?
Is it gonna have to be me, that does this?

Meteor from Final Fantasy 7 (not any other FF's). It basically pwns the world.
Slow fall from WoW mages. I've made many people fly off the map with it in certain raids and every single time its very funny for 9/10 people.
Pestilence from MtG. Sure you can attack me with your army, I'll take 6 damage, oh and your entire army is dead and you also take 6 damage.

Thunder Storm from magicka, with tron robes on.
Does massive electric damage randomly to all creatures on the screen. Fun times: tron robes cause electricity damage to heal you instead.

NOVA (in any form)
I am just a crazy mage and do like to be in the thick of things. Also, in my days you did run out of mana fast/spells not effective, so you were always close to bads anyway, at least with nova you gather a group and kill them together.

Armageddon is cool, but I find cooler to use Mondain's SkullLectori Salutem said:
boy is that shit outrageous XD
That's the Gaia Blade's unleash. I forget the exact name, but it doesn't hold a candle to the Sol Blade's Meggido.Offworlder said:
And, now that I think of it, the ultimate Golden Sun: The Lost Age summon, Iris, is a pretty awesome spell. You can't even get it until you've almost beaten the game, but it summons a goddess to throw your enemies into the sun. What could be better?
Captcha: Scentc Velocities - the speed at which Iris throws your foes into the sun.
Infernal Wrath from the original Fable. Watching a bunch of guards run up to an eight foot guy in full dark plate and hit him to no avail, then a moment later watching them suspended in mid air with a bolt of energy going through them and hundreds of 10 damages appearing in the bottom left of the screen, always gave me a warm feeling inside.
Fuck that Divine Fury or whatever it was, stupid bloody light side people...

I would say Fungus Amongus, from the Mongrel class of Gladius. Silliest animation for a spell ever, and it wasnt half bad.
Then again, theres always Glyph of warding and Sanctuary. Speaking in terms of 3.5 and lower.

Fog Breath in Shin Megami Tensei: Nocturne... it's the best debuff spell I've ever come across. All enemies' agility and accuracy is reduced tremendously. I have enemies with normally high stats missing every attack. The only problem is, it costs a lot of MP.
Fireball in Skyrim - the bestest destruction spell yet. It can hit multiple enemies to deadly effect. Frost Trolls - gone in a few hits! Soldiers - obliterated!

Wouldn't you know it. The time I actually get asked something like this I can't remember any of the spells from my favorite games. Well out of the ones I can remember:
Ultima from FFVI: So overpowered. Hits all enemies all the time and hits for max damage even at lower levels. Combine that with the celestriad (which reduces all mp usage to one), the soul of thamasa (which lets you duel cast), and quick (which lets you take an extra 2 turns), and a little girl could take out 7 boss dragons at once in pretty much one turn.
Extension from Tales of Phantasia: This was just fun to spam. Sure it burned through tp like nobody's business, but it hit all enemies for massive damage and looked pretty cool.
Ice barrage from Runescape: An evil spell. Hits all spaces around the target, freezes them for 20 seconds, and does pretty good damage to boot. Of course I always seemed to be the one on the receiving end of it, but, hey, it was still cool (no pun intended).
The black planet pins from The World Ends With You: Not sure if this one counts, but whatever. The ultimate offensive set. All the pins do immense damage, have nasty side effects, and their uses can be chained for some pretty brutal combos. If Black Saturn were a better recovery pin it would be perfect. Admittedly they were pretty tough to get and don't do shit if you don't have them all, but "When six darklit planets align..."
All the Rex spells from Fire Emblem: Path of Radiance: In this case its really just cause they look cool. Yeah they were powerful and all that but by the time you had them so was absolutely everything else so it wasn't that big of a deal.
Jihad from Shin Megami Tensei: Strange Journey: Does massive almighty (non elemental) damage
to all opponents and lowers all their stats by one (which was a big deal in this game).
