Greatest Games Ever

[Weltall]

I'm going to just pretend it was Virtual On so it stops bugging me :D

[Ivaden]

Haha, sorry. I've been dealing with the "wtf was that game..." thing for about the past six or seven years now. If it helps you at all, I really want to play Virtual On now?

[Yuri-G]

If I don't force myself to pick just 5, I'll end up with 100 picks for sure, so here goes...

Chrono Trigger
Xenogears
Super Mario Bros. 3
Final Fantasy VI
Metroid Prime
Castlevania: Symphony of the Night
Suikoden II

Ok see what happened? I tried to stop at five and ended up with seven. And I still want to put Final Fantasy IV, Secret of Mana, SMT: Nocturne, Persona 3: FES, Vagrant Story, Final Fantasy Tactics, Tactics Ogre, Lunar 2: Eternal Blue, Super Metroid, and a whole slew of other games up there. It's so hard to pick.

now i wanna own a virtual on machine, me and awoir used to play that so much as kids =(

[Norellicus]

Never understood why people like 3 more than 4. 4 is like the evolved version of 3, without the crappy "let me try to match this patch of grass here". I loved them all but I'd probably say:

MGS4
MGS1
MGS3
MGS2 (If Raiden was more like 4, in 2, this list might be shifted =P)

As for favorite games, too many to list or choose less than 30.

3's story was soooooooooo much better than 4. 4 had some awesome moments but nothing comes close to the last hour or two of 3's experience.

Huh...always thought machines like this cost much more.

[archibaldcrane]

Metal Gear Solid 2 and Final Fantasy Tactics

then

FFIV
Goldeneye
Resident Evil 1 and 4
Twisted Metal 2
Final Fantasy

Those are some good ones.

THat one just doesn't have a set price. Look down below there is a Buy It Now for $1700 or something. IT doesn't matter if you win the bid for $250, you won't actually get handed over the machine for that much.

[Hiryo]

Not really sure if i can get the order of this stuff right. But just a little disclaimer, games arent necessarily on the list for spectacular gameply as much as me just liking them.

1) Sonic Adventure 2
2) Digital(Digimon) Card Battle
3) Mobile Suit Gundam: Gundam vs Zeta Gundam
4) Xenosaga 1
5) Xenosaga 3
6) Power Stone 2
7) Little Big Planet
8) Threads of Fate
9) Final Fantasy X
10) Silent Line: Armore Core 3

numbers 7-10 are almost interchangeable, but the 1-5 is definently true for me.

Explanations:
1)SA1 is great, I do own both games. But SA2 is the only one I actually pop in every now and then. I remember freshman year of college I was seeing people play SA2Battle on the gamecube and getting D's and E's on sonic and shadow levels and just being like "Omg these people dont deserve to have this game lol." I watch youtube videos of 2006Sonic and SUnleashed and theres some great JP speed runs and stuff but rgh, its not the same .
2)Sooooooooooo close to being #1 on the list. If there were more opponents on par with Mr. A (and by on par it basically means having the best cards in the game and the deck actually being stack.) it would be #1 on my list. <3 Speed Sevens cards.
3)Okay now, I have Federation vs Zeon and GvZG. Federation is good but Gundam vs Zeta Gundam made everything in that game 100x better. The whole 2 v 2 combat that bandai kept doing with this and the SEED ones got annoying but its so satisfying to dodge Haman's bit attacks while killing Scirroco.
4) Xenosaga 1, i think one of the best stories for any game I've played. Nothing has come close for me.
5) ^
6)If only they made a true 3rd game, if only. I had Power Stone 1 also, which I guess is sortve better than 2; but 2 is a lot more satisfying to play. 1 was more about combos and dominating matches, 2 is more about items and turning the tide on any match with a lucky chest pop.
7)Even though I dont play it as much as i should, cant really compare being able to find levels made by players that are on par or better than developer levels in other games (barring hacked FPS games i guess)
8)I think Mint is the best character I've seen in an RPG that isnt Xenosaga lol
9)Anyone that says FFX wasnt great better have good reason or theyre just hatin'
10) Really want to play 4Answer, and I know theres a BG thread about it. But until then, dodging missles or Kurosawa shots and killing people with x2 shotguns is very satisfying.

Notable runner ups: Pokemon Gold, Dead Space, Samurai Warriors, Okami

[Kaelan?]

LO isn't without some flaws but for this generation of games it is imo the best RPG that has been put out,(I have played and beat most of them tales/mass effect/IU/Last Remnant/etc)

Valkyria Chronicles! (I'd say P4 too, but it's a PS2 game, so Idk if people really count that as a "this generation" game <_<)

Yes you will. It's being sold in "as-is" condition -- no warranty provided -- and if you pick it up, you don't pay for transport.

This happens often. It's not weird to get an older arcade machine this cheap, and the one that's being sold for nearly $2,000 probably won't sell. It's an older game that nobody really wants, as any legit classic arcades probably already have it. There are no "magical hidden fees" that will prevent you from getting what you bid on, unless you go to pick it up, listen to some silly demands, and decide to fork over extra bucks like a fool.

The most you may have to do is rent a truck, but the game will still be given to you for what you bid. You can get simpler JAMMA games for around $100 at times. Arcade machines lose their value when they're not definite moneymakers anymore.

4) Xenosaga 1
5) Xenosaga 3

I wish I could hate you to death.
Every time I see these without Xenogears anywhere in sight on a 'favorites' list, it sends me into an uncontrollable rage.
I just killed my two year old niece... look what you've caused.

I'm going to spend the rest of my goddamn life in prison.

Valkyria Chronicles! (I'd say P4 too, but it's a PS2 game, so Idk if people really count that as a "this generation" game <_<)

Haven't played Valkyria Chronicles but most everything I have read about it has been good, P4 is awesome but I still consider PS2 RPG's on a different level then PS3/360/Wii even though it released this gen, otherwise it would just be unfair.

[ninjafox]

Not in any particular order but for me its:

1) Gunstar Heroes
2) Final Fantasy VII
3) Final Fantasy VIII
4) Guardian Heroes
5) Final Fantasy X
6) Double Dragon
7) Streets of Rage
8) Xenogears
9) Power Stone
10) Super Mario 3
11) Pokemon Blue/Red
12) Ocarina of Time
13) Bloody Roar ( I think that was the name of it, where people turned in the animals)
14) Zone of Enders
15) Einhander
16) Warhawk
17) Turtles in Time
