 All Time Top 5 Games
I know there are always top five lists for games, but to try to make this a little easier to think them up, what are your all-time top five games for each system that you own / have played on? They can be modern or retro games, or arcade games as well - just split each list up by format and feel free to say why.
I've been collecting computers and consoles for about 30 years so it would take too long to go through all of them right now, so I'll just pick a couple to start off...
Commodore 64
1. Wizball 2. Delta 3. IK+ 4. Impossible Mission 5. Little Computer People
Amiga
1. Turrican 2. R-Type 3. Secret Of Monkey Island 4. Slam Tilt 5. Alien Breed
More to come...

Nintendo 3DS Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time So I guess you like Final Fantasy then?! lol I haven't started on my lists for the other formats yet, but I have to be honest and say that there are going to be a few of the Final Fantasy games in there on several formats in mine as well. Just not sure which is my favourite of all of them.

 Re: All Time Top 5 Games
Final Fantasy got me into video games a few years ago, per the Advent Children movie (I loved the style and then discovered there was a game (Dirge of Cerberus) that was sort of a sequel and in the same style - it went steadily downhill from there). I kinda try to restrict myself to Final Fantasy and Kingdom Hearts games as I don't want gaming to take over my life (Final Fantasy games take up enough time as it is and some of them I play to bits). I'm mostly sticking to RPGs as they're like, interactive stories - stories are the constant thread running through my life. Everything I do - writing, drawing, puppetry, collecting books and comics, is somehow related to stories. Well, I suppose plush foxes aren't... but that's the exception. Although I do own a few books about foxes...

 Re: All Time Top 5 Games
Next list is for the PS3...
It's a very tough choice and when I was looking through my collection I ended up with a shortlist of around ten, but at a push it's probably these:-
Sports Champions Guitar Hero (can't single out any particular game so I'd say the whole series) Heavy Rain Burnout Paradise Ratchet And Clank: Tools Of Destruction

Well, it's not as if there haven't been one or two of them... although saying that looking back at my list I don't think I'd count the whole series as Van Halen's track listing is pretty dire, and I did miss Band Hero out which is pretty cool too. I'm not too sure about Rock Band - it's good but I don't think the difficulty setting seems to be as well balanced (at least not on the two Rock Band games I've got so far) and the controls don't seem as responsive as GH, but maybe that's just me. They do seem to have a better selection of tracks though and certainly better support in terms of additional content.
