Mine would have to Perfect Dark for the Nintendo 64 in the FPS category. It was just so far ahead of it's time it's insane, that game needs to be remade for the newer generation consoles and brought above ground. If you still own a N64 I highly suggest purchasing Perfect Dark. I played that game for 2 years and still never unlocked everything (mainly the cheats), it's just such a great game.

Number 2 on my list is Warcraft 2: Battle.Net Edition (Multi-player mode). It's just so entertaining and playing with other people makes it much more fun. I loved controlling the peasants and sending them to their deaths.

___If you mean strictly electronic game, then Myst. I occasionally play MOH online (found some novel tricks that take cooperation too;boosting on a guys head up to awnings & ledges otherwise inaccesible). Myst was so original, I've seen nothing like it since in originality.

I know this is so mainstream, but i love the grand theft auto series. san adreas is so huge, 5 times the size of vice city. it's fun to just roam, do whatever you want.

I'll second that. I liked Myst 2 as well. Both required you to think outside the box.

I've enjoyed most of the Zelda games myself. I didn't particularly care for that Zelda offshoot (Lynx?). Secret of Mana was pretty decent too.

I remember Super Mario Brothers on the original Nintendo console. Used to play it all the time when I was eight. Could win the game in one go...

During these busy days, I play FIFA 2005 for some instant action and thrill. Get your roommate to play a friendly against. NO time to play those strategy and RPG games.

I'm partial to Xiangqi. Oh wait, that's just a board game!
