Default Best Game Ever?
Im sorry, not quite old but my vote goes to Zelda: Ocarina of Time or Majora's Mask, both absolutely breathtaking games.

Mass Effect rates a mention but its not old

So hard to pick a best ever, but i must admit Mario kart on the SNES was pretty ground breaking and addictive for me- mode 7 was amazing. Actual real corners to go around rather than the usual "track bends in front of you"

But that was such along time ago, so im going with a newish game in Bioshock. The story was totally enthralling. Spent most my time at work daydreaming about how it would unravel and it sure delivered. Actually my co-workers must have got sick of me at talking about the game all day long LOL. I could go on about bioshock forever, shame it had to end....

Quickly mention perfect dark for N64. Spent alot of hours with this one.

Where in the retro gaming thread I assume your asking for the best retro game ever if I'm right I would say Mario is the best game ever on how this game evolve from time to time. Really go crazy for Mario back then.

DooM, no questions asked. Opened up a whole new world of both great 3D fps and network multiplayer.

yeah DOOM is one of the greatest games I've played I remember playing DOOM when I was a kid I'm so scared to walk into a hallway expecting that a monster will show up there.

Hard to narrow down to one. Candidates would be

Tie Fighter
Dark Forces
OpenGL Team Fortress
WoW
Tribes
GTA3
Total Annihilation

All groundbreaking and held me playing for a long time.

Doom was amazing! But no one game jumps out for me. I do have some great memories of Pirates on the 64. I loved that one. When it was released again a couple of years ago, it just didn't have the magic of the original.

I also loved The Bards Tale III. Man, the hours I sunk into that one!!
