| The Elder Scrolls series has a special place in my heart^^ The stories they tell are epic, yet so "belivable" that you feel pulled in and captivated by the strugles of these characters. Of all the games, I have to pick Morrowind as my favorite for the deep storyline and perfect mix of action and RPG.
I also have to say that Age of Empires is really high on my list since "The Age of Kings" was the game that really got me into gaming. | |

I have: Disgaea: Hour of Darkness La Pucelle: Tactics Phantom Brave Atelier Iris: Eternal Mana Disgaea 2: Cursed Memories Rhapsody: A Musical Adventure - DS Disgaea DS I want some of the others (especially Makai Kingdom), but what I like the most is how the games are connected. I know it's mainly as hidden bosses, but I believe Rhapsody is kind of like a prequel to La Pucelle: Tactics. | |

| I got Bioshock. Damn that shit is creepy. Lurves it though. For a horror FPS it is amazing. It's use of 50s style culture, plus creepy destroyed inescapable city, plus insane and powerful badguys, plus of course, super powers, it really mixed in well to create a marvelous game. I have to admit, I played it with full brightness for a little while. ^^' | |

| My top Favorites: Lunar 2: Eternal Blue Complete (PS2) has to be my favorite RPG of all time.
Al Dynasty Warriors and Samurai Warriors Games as well as Warriors Orochi 1 and 2. I like WO2 a little more because of Sun Wukong and characters are painless to unlock.
Guilty Gear X and XX
Blaz Blu is also really good
Makai Kingdom. Crispin Freeman as a BADASS FREAKEN' OVERLORD?! Totally awesome.The other Disgaea are fun too.
The main Resident Evil Series (0-5 and Code Veronica); namely RE2 because it is the first time you get to experience a Zombie Infested city. All the RE games have their creepyness, strange story (But damn I love it) and cool characters.
Silent Hill 1-3; while 4 and 5 sucked (Four more than Five, in my opinion), the first three games were creepy fun. I remember watching my older step-brother play Silent Hill 1 when I was like ten and being scared like hell.
Assassin's Creed; Now, some people didn't like this one as much as they expected they would. It is repetitive, yes. But what is better than stabbing a guard in the back with a totally awesome Hidden Dagger? Stabbing TWO guards AT ONCE with TWO HIDDEN DAGGERS, that's what! AC2 is going to be awesome.
Tekken Series; They are awesome, what more can I say?
Dead Or Alive series (The Fighting Games, not the Volleyball); All are fun and cool in their own way. Yes, the ladies might be nice to look at, but it also has an awesome tribute to Jakie Chan (At least his character in Drunken Master and Legend of the Drunken Master) and Bruce Lee. And Ayane is cooler than Kasumi. Just putting that out there.
Soul Edge and the Soul Caliber Series; I may not be the greatest Mitsurugi player ever, but I'm not all that bad. Contrary to the internet, I like Soul Caliber 1 more than SC2. I have (Well, HAd. I'll explain at the bottom of this post) Soul Caliber 4 for 360. I enjoy making Anime, Manga, Video Game, Original and Movie characters in Character Creation.
Virtua Fighter/ Virtual Fighter 5; Another great batch of Fighting Games. Five is actually my favorite this time around. Eileen is one of my favorites because of her Monkey Style Kung Fu. I like all the characters and can use them all well enough. I hate fighting Akira though. I like the costume editing system and Badge system. Yes, one of my Eileen costumes is her as Sun Wukong (Or Son Goku, if you prefer).
Street Fighter; What is a video game list without Street Fighter? I like all the games, and DAN is the best!
Bioshock; Or System Shock 2, is awesome. I can't wait for Bioshock 2.
I'm out of time now, but I'll list more later.
And now an explanation: I won't give all the details as to why, but my little brother sold my 360 including the Hard Drive and most of my games. He is going to buy me all my games, a new 360 as well as a few new games (Tekken 6, among others). When I get it back I'll post my Xbox Live Account. | |

this The elder scrolls series is awesome, I could play Oblivion over and over again, I still am going through on my first playthrough of morrowing, just doing all I can and taking it slow (I've had it for several years) | |

| I can't really agree, or disagree with you sean about the Soul Series, 'cause I only have Soul Calibur 2. (It's the only fighting game except for SSB games and a couple Godzillas...I think. I do have a Street Fighter Game for the GBA.)
Anyone play that new Dragon Age game yet? Origins? (I think I saw Ghostmaker mention it...as something that was preventing him from RPing. D) | |

| Origins destroyed my life for like a week, then I got AC2, and all was well. But that shit is addictive. Mages rule though. Be a mage. Mages FTW. Mages. But yeah, AC2 is bad ass. Ezio Auditore is way better than Altair. It's so prettyful. But make no mistake, nothing you haven't seen already really. It's sort of just adding to the first game. Not a whole lot is better about it, except for swimming. It's still a great game though. | |

| I found that Assassin's Creed 2 was a vast improvement upon the first game. The kills were better, the stealth mechanics were more fleshed, the world was well realized, the voice actor for Leonardo was a little...well, bland. All in all though, the game has grown and learnt from the mistakes of the first. However, I believe Altair would destroy Ezio, if the two ever came into conflict. It wouldn't be hard at all.
On another note, I just started Last Remnant, and I am enjoying it. It's a rather interesting take on the usual tried and over-used battle methods that RPGs have been ripping since it came out... | |

| OK lets start this off by saying this....I love ALL games. But my favorite are FPS's, RPG MMO, and Racing. I am currently hooked on Forza 3 and MW 2 (Modern Warfare). I will give any game a chance. But that doesnt mean I will finish it. I am usually on XBox live playing COD, and Forza. But the school I am at put a stop to that (no Net). | |

| Ah...favorite video games... Super Mario Sunshine. Yeah, it's old, but it was the first video game that I ever loved. So nyah. Zelda games as well...especially the ones featuring Toon Link. It takes me forever to figure out the puzzles, but the storyline is just too good. And ohmahgoodnessIlovemesometoonlink. Drawn to Life, if you've ever heard of it...obviously, Super Mario Galaxy 1 and 2...the Pokemon games, definately. Portal 2 is pretty exciting for me, but I don't have it. I just like watching people play it. ^-^ Also Touhou. But I would never attempt playing it. I could never get past the impossible levels and I would NEVER stoop down so low as to play it on easy mode. But yeah, I like games! | |

| I'm with BlackSwan: Bioware and Fallout, but to be more general, Bethesda games.
Also, Halo is awesome, Mario must die, id software has some great games for anyone that remembers Quake and Doom, Naughty Dog, Insomniac Games.
Also, the Unreal Tournament series is awesome, though I'd like to see Domination added to UT3 with the green and gold teams. | |

QFT^^ My anticipation for Skyrim can be measured in both desibel and on the Richter scale. I'm tempted to make a passivist character who'll be dual-wielding sheilds Recently I also re-discovered my love of classical JRPGs when I started playing Golden Sun: Dark Dawn for the DS. I played the first two Golden Sun games on the GBA and loved them^^ Kinda reminds me of A:TLA with its fokus on the four elements. | |

I meant to respond back when I saw this post and then almost an entire year has passed... The answer is yes, though. I love Legends. I still haven't beaten it, but it's because I enjoy the research tasks. Something is really satisfying about completing a Pokedex entry. I've had a ton of fun with it and I really hope they do more with this concept. | |

| I'll join the posting approximately one year later club! I hope they do more with it too! It was a lot of fun to lean into playing biologist instead of makin' it all about the battles. With Scarlet and Violet in the rearview, I honestly think I liked the separate map locations with one detailed hub a little better. Something about the towns in Salt and Vinegar lacked the charm they normally have. I still haven't finished it either! I should really go back, but filling out the rest of the entries seems like it'll take too much effort. Fingies still crossed for another Legends game though. Any other games y'all have been playing? I'm guessing this crowd is deep in the paint with Baldur's Gate 3, and hopefully in the 2 years (apparently) it'll take me to get back I'll have tried it too. Gotta say though, night after the game awards, I'm disappointed Venba didn't get more love! It's so good! Perfect one evening video game for experiencing generational trauma and crying a lot! | |

| Yeah, I really hope they do more with Legends. It's the Pokemon game I keep going back to out of their newer ones. Violet/Scarlet took some steps in the right direction, but it feels like an unfinished game with the lack of indoor locations (and the towns did feel lackluster) and with quite a few NPCs not having dialogue. Not to mention the framerate issues, and I also struggle with the "bike" controls when it comes to climbing (just grab onto the slope and climb, please). The world also felt kind of empty, just with a ton of items scattered around. I also hate that trainers no longer battle you on sight. I still enjoy Violet, but it and Sword/Shield have a lot of issues. I really wish they would slow down Pokemon's generation schedule so they had more time to work on the games. I also wish they'd give us real villain teams again. I did like Nemona as a rival, though. I'm tired of friendly rivals, but she had enough of a competitive drive to her that she felt different than the other friendly rivals from previous games. I know some people hate her, but I really enjoyed her character. As for other games? Well, I was going to get Hogwarts Legacy for my Switch, but after seeing the comparison videos... I bought it on Steam instead. I haven't tried installing it yet to see if it'll run on my laptop (which I doubt it will), but I have it for whenever I get a new laptop (my current one is near the end of its lifespan, I think). I have been playing Tears of the Kingdom. I took a break from it, but I plan on getting back into it soon. I've been catching up on Violet's DLC before the next one drops. I'm slow at game progress, but I just have the Gorons left for the main four races. I've really enjoyed the game thus far, though I hate the building mechanic... I'm just really bad at it/find it frustrating. Tears also feels harder in general, as I'm constantly getting game overs. I also plan on playing the My Next Life as a Villainess: All Routes Lead to Doom! game once it arrives. It's based on an anime/light novel series (isekai/otome), and I waited forever for it to be ported, so I'm super excited. Of course no physical stores in my area have it, though, and there's been delays in it actually being shipped to me... So, no getting to play it this weekend like I had hoped. Other than that, I haven't played too much. It's hard to balance work, writing (personal and roleplay), reading, shows, and video games. I've never played any of the Baldur's Gate games, nor have I heard of Venba. I didn't watch the game awards, though I've also been busy with real life stuff. Maybe I'll check out the highlights over the weekend. | |
