Seconded here. CT is a game that still resonates within the core of my being. Probably one of life's greatest lessons ever told was by Belthasar during that sad, sad moment in the game:R.Nevermore said:
"The strength you wield now cannot free me. No, perhaps it's better said that no strength can. So long as you lean upon the crutch of power, this world's sorrow can know no true end."
It's one of the few RPGs that made me feel as if I changed, personally, the more I played it. The same can be said of Wild ARMs 1, in a way. It's somewhat odd, and perhaps a bit morbid, but when my life eventually ends, I'd like my tombstone to say, "This person now sleeps beyond the flow of time."
Way of the samurai 3.
Say what you want, it's pretty much nailed the whole "Consequences" thing western developer been doing for a good 10 years now.
That and you can be a total badass and NOT kill anyone. When was the last game you played in which you could simply let people go?

BG2 is the single best game ever made, bar none. Everything about it, from the story to the gameplay is just this side of perfect, and it has the greatest villain of all time, Jon Irenicus [http://forgottenrealms.wikia.com/wiki/Jon_Irenicus]. Really, there are no flaws in this game. It's easily the best.
Yep, I have- that's what got me into the Tales series, actually. Vesperia's a great game. I prefer Symphonia, but Vesperia definitely has a few strengths Symphonia doesn't (like the ability to free run in battle, for one). Of the Tales series, I've played Vesperia, Abyss, Symphonia, and Phantasia, heh.4RM3D said:
Always good to see someone who's played Vesperia, though. That game was fun.
sILENT HILL 1 and 2, Syphon Filter ruled when I was little till Metal Gear Solid blew it out of the water. Recently I agree with Fallout 3, New Vegas wasn't quit as good because of the lack of.. well evreything.. Tho I did appreciate the tweaks to formula, just hated the initial bugs when it was released.

Tetris.
Honeslty, there aren't many games that have remained so universally popular for as long as it has without any modifications to how the game is played and what the goal is. It's simple and effective and even though it's had minor graphical updates over the years it's still the exact same game that it always has been. The reasons behind this are simple: it's impossible to improve. Change anything about the game (apart from the visuals) and suddenly it's not Tetris any more, the game was perfect from the very beginning and it's continued to remain that way ever since. There have been imitators, pretenders to its legacy, but none have ever come close.
Also, you'll be hard-pressed to find someone who hasn't heard of it before.
So, as a cultural icon, as a massive part of gaming history (seriously, you could make a movie about the effort Atari had to go through to secure the rights), from its staying power, its addictiveness, its endless replay value and it's elegant design I think that Tetris is definitely the greatest single player game of all time.
I really, really, REALLY, liked The Darkness. Something about sitting down and just watching a movie with the protagonists girlfriend held something magical for me.
In my opinion, that would be Final fantasy X, because of the following reasons:
1)Great characters, both secondary and primary. This game has shown me the best female character of the industry: Yuna. Not only she has great inner characteristic (strong without being *****, sensitive without being weakling, etc...), but she also has great looks and decent clothing. Basically, she is my favorite Female character in videogames. Plus, Auron is absolute BADASS;
2)Astonishing music, which, after 9 years, still warms my heart and never leaves my MP3 player;
3) Graphics, which even after 10 years of existence still look more attractive then major part of modern games;
4)Great gameplay;
5) Level-up system, which is simple, but has a certain depth;
6)Story, which I expirienced six times, and I would like to expirience for the seventh time.
In short, for me, THIS game is greatest game so far.

Portal or Mirror's Edge.
Neither are really based around killing (though some does take place (sort of, in Portal, anyway)), they are in first person (an absolute MUST for me), are different from anything else out there, don't out-stay their welcome and give a real sense of freedom and wonder (even though you are basically trapped in Portal.
