I love Puzzle type games.
Tomb Raider was a favorite. Lara kept me company on the several boring nights I spemt in BFE North Carolina.
There's one for X-Box called Sphinx I think. I had a good time with that one.
Brothers In Arms was pretty good but I never played it much.
Halo is fun for mindless multiplayer entertianment with friends.
One I never thought I would have really enjoyed is Fight Night, the boxing game for X-Box. Some friends and I were going to try to get together a bunch of people to play and make bets on the fights but that never happened.

The only video games that I liked (and was not too bad at) were Donkey Kong, Robotron, and Frogger. On the computer, I like the solitaire Mah Jongg and Monopoly. I would like Scrabble, but it cheats. Also Roller Coaster Tycoon and The Incredible Machine, but I don't know if those really count as games.

Hey anyone remember Zanac for the NES. I remember being addicted to that game like crazy!

Well the only 'video game' I play at the moment is Yahoo! Chess :rofl:, however the best game I've ever played probably has to be Final Fantasy VII - I wasted obscene amounts of time on that game and it was the sole reason why I got a playstation.

Oh, well, of course that is ignoring the games I made a couple of years ago, which are clearly the greatest ever introduced to mankind :tongue: :tongue:

Ah, yes WoW is definitely the best MMORPG I've ever played. I have a level 60 troll rogue and a level 41 human mage. I'll start playing again when the expansion comes out, and I get a job to pay for it. :grumpy:

Well the only 'video game' I play at the moment is Yahoo! Chess

One of my favorite online games is RuneScape, it's free and VERY addictive. I also like Alchemy on Yahoo! Alchemy got my through many boring days at school. :approve: :tongue:

OMG. I forgot about The Incredible Machine. Used to play that as a kid. Now I'm studying engineering/science. Coincidence?

Hrm... let's rank them in terms of approximate number of hours sunk.

World of Warcraft. (I just recently managed to extricate myself from this addiction after a year of playing 2 or 3 hours a day at least)
Stars! (Helped contribute to me failing out of my first year of college)
Legend of Zelda: A link to the past (I knew this game so well that my brother and I tagteamed it over a three day period one summer and finished it without dying or saving once)

Those are the top three

Honorable mentions go to:
Final Fantasy VII
Patrician 2/3 (3 is basically an expansion, but they didn't sell enough in the US to justify selling it as such. If you like trading games, give the demo a try)
Gran Turismo 3
Space Empires 4
Baldur's Gate
Bard's Tale 1, 2, & 3

uhm... yeah... I play too many video games.
