I find it tragic that the Halo series wasn’t included on the list. The original Halo: Combat Evolved defined first person shooters on a console. If that weren’t enough, Halo 2 was revolutionary in its on-line execution and seamless melding of X-BOX-LIVE features. Halo 2 literally made all other console based FPS that came before it obsolete and even converted some PC gamers in to the Halo fold thanks to the awesome voice-chat feature. Now I will admit that Halo 3 appears more evolutionary than revolutionary but the game still has a huge following as its not uncommon to see well over a quarter of a million people playing it on-line most Friday nights.

Halo and Knights of the Old Republic. The 1st KOTOR was golden, but the 2nd was somewhat lacking, albeit very thought provoking and dark.

So hard to say! As a kid Super Mario Bros 3 was the BEST GAME on Nintendo, there were very close seconds, and my friends and i LOVED Tekken and Twisted Metal, Mortal Kombat ate a few of my quarters at the arcade, but for sheer storytelling and time spent on a game, Final Fantasy rules, VII in particular is my favorite. Now Halo seems to be one of my favorites now, but it doesn't top Final Fantasy VII.
