What is the best game you have ever played?

I would say it is "Freaked Out 2" on the Atari ST. Simple game, with limited graphics, but so much gameplay it is untrue!

Difficult to answer but I probably spent most time playing The Lords of Midnight.

This was a 1984 Spectrum game, there's a browser based version you can try if you want to play against real people:

Currently playing Commander Europe at War quite a bit, this is a PC wargame based on World War 2.

No affiliation to any of these just recommend them as excellent games if you like that sort of thing.

I'm really wanting to get GTA V but it's still so expensive everywhere. Lowest I've seen it I think is £38. It's obviously one that people are keeping rather than trading in as I've seen literally 0 pre-owned.

What a great thread!

There's a lot of love for Sensi and quite rightly, although much of that comes from it being the game I played most with mates at Uni.

Elite was a revelation at the time, and I played it to death.

I was quite late to Consoles, so I'm still working back through some of the popular xbox360 titles. Assassins Creed 2 is up there, best protagonist and beautiful setting, I spent ages just wandering around blending into crowds and climbing. Gears of War deserves more credit than it gets, I prefer it to Halo/COD as a brain off fun game. I loved Deus Ex HR/Fallout 3 and I'm loving Skyrim, but I only have 2-3 hours gaming time a week so I always end up getting bored/frustrated before the end with these detailed types of games. For 'just one more go' replay value it's Bayonetta, and I'm suprised I'm the first to mention it.

I remember getting a 5.1 surround system and buying I think it was Medal of Honor (or Call of Duty) and the starting sequence was the beach landing at Omaha?? It was so real it was scary good.

Funny I recently upgraded to a new computer and was wondering what sort of game would give me similar enjoyment.

(or Microprose Soccer! )

Speaking of scary - Castle of Terror on the C64 - that music when Dracula appeared... in a very slowly rendered static screen....AARRGGHHHHH!!!!

I mentioned earlier that I'd got quite into Battlefield 4 on my sons Xbox 360. We also have a PS3 in the lounge plugged in to the main TV so I bought BF4 for that too. With the TV volume on full its pretty darn awesome!! My wife not so impressed though

I loved those original war shooters. I remember the D-Day scene too - quite mind blowing at the time as the first time to see something like that.
