What are your 5 favorite video games of all time?

I don't think I can rank these, but I'll just list em, also fuck you sometimes I can't decide which one to choose so I say a series.

Mario Party 1-6

I can't even tell you how many nights I've spent playing this drunk/high with my friends. It's unreal how I couldn't ever get tired of these games. When I was a kid playing on the N64 I used to actually just give myself 9 stars to start and then play it through when there was no way I could lose. Giving myself that handicap removes the competitive aspect of it and I still would play it over and over, so that should tell you something.

Ratchet and Clank 1-4

Easily the most time I've spent on PS2 was playing these. Just beating them over and over, ranking up the weapons, trying to get like a billion bolts to max out how much the game would let me have was amazing. Everything about these games was great and the replay value is off the charts.

Halo 2

yea yea whatever

League of Legends

Spent easily over 2 thousand hours on this game over the past couple years, so that speaks for itself.

Iggy's Reckin' Balls

I still don't think I've met someone who remembers this game, but it was one of, if not my favorite N64 game ever. I also liked how the game was kinda hard and the "skill cap" was really high so I would always be able to get better. Haven't played this in forever though.

Honorables: SSX Tricky, Donkey Kong 64, Madden 2004 and Blitz 2000

Halo 1/2

Metro 2033/Last Light

Fallout 3/New Vegas

Elder Scrolls

Pokemon Gen 1/2

#5 WET (2009): Honestly because main character female is pretty badass and gorgeous. Not to mention it was addicting killing people with her types of weapons she had and carried on her. Especially enjoyed her sword combinations and shotgun killing techniques. 

#4 Halo Reach (2010): I enjoy the storyline within the campaign and love playing it from time to time when I can. I especially love playing the "Living Dead" playlist having that shotgun and killing others with it is quite enjoyable especially if your getting a shotgun killing spree going on also enjoy "Big Team Battle" as well from time to time. 

#3 Halo 4 (2012): It's an interesting storyline through the campaign but these days I barely play it, I'm mostly roaming the playlists in the War Games menu. It can be addicting from time to time, my top playlist favorites will always be Heavies and Big Team Infinity Slayer the occasion SWAT on the side if I'm bored from the other two. 

#2 Modern Warfare 3 (2011): I regret selling it but I loved the storyline and the online multiplayer it has. It was addicting and although I wasn't as good in it I enjoyed the many playlists it had from time to time. 

#1 Mario 64 (1996): I know I jumped way back on the spectrum but I loved playing it as a kid and still play it when I can get my hands on it. I was just always fascinated by how he could jump into the different worlds and collect the stars doing different tasks he had to accomplish each time he had to jump into the those worlds. It was just so damn fascinated. I so regret selling my N64 back in middle school because I've been itching to play it for quite a long time now. I think it'll always be number one honestly. 

#5 - SSX Tricky

#4 - Tony Hawk series (I played one a lot more than the others but I can't remember which because it's been 10+ years since I played it)

#3 - Star Wars Battlefront 2

I don't think I even came close to beating any of those games but I played them a SHIT TON regardless. I have very high hopes for the DICE Battlefront reboot.

#2 - Call of Duty 4

#1 - Halo 3

My first online multiplayer games. Up until I got my 360, I was primarily a solo gamer, and these were the two games I played with my school friends for years. I played both of these games religiously. I'm really hoping for a remastered version of COD4.

HM:

CS 1.6

Super Mario Sunshine

The Last of Us

Battlefield 3

Banjo Kazooie

Paper Mario

Starcraft II

Dark souls

Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask

Nostalgia is too strong. Starcraft II I've put in well over a thousand hours in both Ranked and unranked games. Custom games, TD, Dota style games, maze games, etc along with being one of the most competitive games out there at the moment. Dark souls because the replay factor is too good.  I'm sure I could post more games but these are the 5 I've at least spent the most time playing :)

Twilight Princess

Halo 1 and 2

Pokemon R/B/Y and G/S/C

1. Halo CE

2. Gears of War

3. Cod 2

4. Mario Partys/Karts

5. Diablo 2: LoD

HMs: Halo 2/3. League of legends. OoT, Goldeneye, Starcrat BW/2

Bonus 6) Metal Gear Solid Series, specifically Sons of Liberty and Snake Eater (This could easily be #5, it's so hard to decide)

*** Honestly, the first and most fun early shooter game I ever played, besides Golden Eye and SOCOM. GE was great, but MGS incorporated awesome stealth, epic ass story line, and I really enjoyed the 3rd person perceptive. Probably the only shooter type game I could play 3rd person, other than SOCOM. The story of MGS is really what put it ahead of either of them. 

5) Super Smash Bros. Series

*** Not much can be said, if you don't know, then you will never know... nothing is better than getting drunk / high with 4 friends and brawling it out. I did this type of shit with my first since I was 13, so it's definitely one of my favorite gaming moments. Pwning nubs and destroying friendships, one KO at a time.

4) League of Legends

*** I just recently started playing this game 5-6 months ago, but it's hella legit... the depth to the game on a competitive level is insane, the meta, team fights, solo fights, everything. It's like super smash on steroids and computer. The community is awesome. I seriously just love everything about this game. First MOBA I've ever gotten into, but just wow. 

3) Grand Theft Auto Series (could be tied w/ #2)

*** Seriously, need much be said? It's GTA... other than GTA:V, the story is always epic. Wasn't a huge fan of IV story-line, but all the previous stories were great and really brought you into the game. Plus, what other game do you have so much real-world freedom to do as you please in such a realistic way? Though, I'm not a huge fan of payouts and the money making system online, I'd be content playing any GTA  solo campaign until the end of my days. 

2) Elder Scrolls Series

*** Seriously, nothing like Elder Scrolls... Bethdesda, this is their baby. Yeah, they have Fallout and shit, but Elder Scrolls is a fucking diamond that they'll take to the grave. It gets better and better every reiteration, the world gets better, the environment and NPCs get better, and the mechanics get better. There's nothing bad you can say about Elder Scrolls except for "dungeons being carbon copies of another," but honestly, with everything going on in the world, I never noticed it and certainly didn't care. I've put 400 hours into Skyrim on 3 different playthroughs, and I STILL find things I have never seen. The scope of their games is magnificent, and I really can't wait until the next in the coming few years. 

1) Halo 2

*** Fuck you, if you truly experienced H2, you don't need an explanaition.  If you didn't experience it, then I feel sorry for you. This shit is #1 because of the experiences I had with friends and the online community. I have never felt such a close companionship to a single game or community like I did to H2.  Maybe it was because I was 13-18, but shit, I've pumped more hours into this game than any game to-date. I can't name the number of RL and online friends I played with on a regular basis and actually talked to. Online games aren't as vocal anymore, they're just not. H2, you could go into a random 4v4 game by yourself and get match with 7 other players who actually had microphones. The button glitches, super jumps, and everything else seriously just made this game the best, even though they really never intended it to be. There's so many aspects of the game, even if I explained them in ridiculous detail, you'd never get it unless you heavily played it yourself from 2004 onwards. 

Crazy to think that was over 10 years ago now.... wow. 

I havent played as many games as I want to, but lately I have been expanding little by little when the money available:

#5: A tie between Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare and Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2.  WAIT...let me explain why. These were the first shooters to pull me slightly away from Halo because not only were more people playing them, but they were just a lot of fun before they got hacked/modded and players played REALLY cheaply. Their stories were great for military FPSs, especially MW1, and the simplicity of the gameplay for MW1 rivaled Halo. MW2 was a great game for a little while; addicting, fun, frustrating as well, but all around a good time even if it doesnt compare to Halo in any way.

#4: Trials Evolution. Its an Xbox Arcade game, but its SO MUCH FRIGGIN FUN! I didnt like the first Trials game very much, but this one EASILY got me addicted to its challenging gameplay, and when I completed a few of the really tough courses for Gold Medals, and eventually a handful of Platinums, I was very satisfied with the entire game, its slowly escalating difficulty, and the general mayhem and fun it provided for me and my brother. I played it a lot for a good year and a half I think, and although I dont really play it anymore right now, I managed to break into the Top 5% in the World on the Global Leaderboards for score in the whole game (inside the top 100,000) 6 times, and finish 6 of the main course sections with all Gold medals (only a few Platinums).

#3: Halo 2/Halo 2 Anniversary: Not a whole lot to say, because this whole forum is a Halo website, but I will say this: I didnt play it a lot when it came out, but I have gone through the campaign 3 times, twice on my own and one of those times recently on Legendary Solo. That was TOUGH. I absolutely love the gameplay, the story is great as we all know, and the Anniversary graphics are jaw-dropping.

#2: The Last of Us/Remastered: I haven't played it before, but I have seen the game on YouTube, along with the Left Behind DLC (just posted a thread about it too).  I consider it one of the Greatest games ever made. Terrific storytelling, characters to connect to and empathise with, beautiful and terrifying scenery, awesome voice acting (props to Troy Baker, and Ashley Johnson specifically, for the best acting I have ever seen in a video game...even trumps a couple of the Halo games).  Someday I wand to experience it myself.  The way Ellie explains her feelings in the middle, and pivotal, part of the game is awesome, and how Joel struggles with his grief from his past (not gonna spoil it) is something I haven't seen in games lately.

#1...drum roll........Halo 3. I have played it since Sept 28th, 2007, and i consider it the Best FPS shooter ever made for consoles. Love the story, although not powerful like TLOU, but its epic and its pivotal with the story of humanities struggles against the Covenant, Master Chief making sure Cortana is save (for now) and discovering a possible way to attempt to erradicate the Flood is all extremely entertaining. And the multiplayer...well....I cant say enough about how much I love Halo 3s multiplayer. The Custom Games, Forge, Theater...you name it.  I love it all, but I do have a feeling that eventually a Halo game in the future from 343i will have a better story, so my #1 spot is still up for grabs.

Honorable Mentions: The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim, Halo: Combat Evolved, Tomb Raider (2013 series reboot).

This is hard to list 5, damn. I'm gonna have sequels/trilogies on the list.

5. Bioshock

4. Resident Evil 2, 3, 4.

3. Pokemon Red/Blue, Leaf Green/Fire Red, Heart Gold/Soul Silver

2. Legend of Zelda : Ocarina of Time 

1. Halo 1,2,3

5 - Metroid Prime

4 - Paper Mario

3 - Halo CE

2 - Halo 2. I spent a significant portion of my high school years playing this game. I'll never forget all the good times I had just playing with friends and making montages. One of the best times of my life for sure 

1 - Super Smash Brothers Melee. I've been playing this game casually for 13 years since the day it came out and I've been playing it competively for over 4 years and I can still play this game every day for hours on end and not get tired of it. It is an incredibly deep and technical game and there is so much room for improvement. All things considered this is the hallmark of an amazing game. The scene is alive and well and I don't see it dying for years. I recommend everyone to go buy a gamecube/Wii and start getting into the smash scene, because it's so worth it. I've seen lots of people from here (Crucifix, SirTopEmHat, Rhis, Alen) that are apart of the smash scene and they can all attest to how rewarding it is playing this amazing game.

In no particular order:

Halo CE

Jet Set Radio Future

Pokemon Red/Blue

Super Smash Bros Melee

Marvel VS. Capcom 2
