My Personal Favorite Games

I got my NES at age 7 with 3 games: Mario/Duckhunt, Metroid, and Zelda. Needless to say, this was my favorite.

In my opinion, this is still the best title in the Zelda series.

Mario Kart 64 made so many improvements from the SNES classic, it gets my vote over the original.

I'm not sure this list would be complete without a Mario platform title. This just happens to be my favorite.

While I did love Prime, I'm a sucker for side scrolling.

This remains as the pinnacle of the FF series.

While others may malign FFIX, I thought it was a great throwback to what made the series great.

Diablo ate up more time than I'd like to admit. I was hooked from the minute I downloaded the demo.

It's Halo. Do I really need to say more? No other game, past or present, has yet created as many gatherings or resulted in as many beers consumed as Halo.

The first truly excellent console FPS.

Well, I was playing far before 1.6, but CS are up most of my freshman year in college.

Everyone thought this Disney/Square crossover was doomed from the start. Even I had my doubts...until I played it.

Personally, I loved it.

One of the best RPGs of all time, hands down.

Another Square classic from the SNES golden age.

One of the most recent additions, the humor and gameplay made Portal something special. HUGE SUCCESS.
