Tough choice? I bet it’s difficult to narrow down to just three.

My favourite game of all time is the 1994 classic space combat sim TIE Fighter. I played this on DOS initially and then on Win 95. I remember getting it on floppy disk first and then on CD-ROM. I’ve played it again recently (last couple of years is recent at my age) and it still holds up. Would love a remaster.

Next is Rome Total War. My first strategy games were Red Alert, Total Annihilation, Dark Reign and Total War: Medieval. Released in 2004, Rome: Total War revolutionised the TW franchise and strategy games in general. It’s considered by many to be the greatest game of all time.

The final choice is a difficult one. There have been so many brilliant games in my life it’s tough to narrow it down. This first computer game I remember playing was Harrier Attack, 35 or so years ago. Sonic the Hedgehog on the Megadrive, Mario Kart on the SNES, Red Alert, the original Tekken (Tekken 2 was far superior), Doom, Quake, too many to mention. GTA! Wow. I remember playing top-down GTA as a demo on PC. Really showing my age. But my final choice is Supreme Commander. Not Forged Alliance, but the original supcom. Sheer brilliance. The scope, the scale, it was bigger and better than anything which came before it.

If you could only pick just three games. Which would you pick?
 
Warcraft 3 My most played game by a long shot. I had a lot of good memories whit the custom map. It was a fertile breeding ground for new idea of game. Later you find a custom game that is now a full title that give you a smile and the sentiment that you where there at the infancy.

Half life 2 Just a over all great game whit not a lot of flaw everything is good in my opinion the custom game where a lot of before the event of garis mod.

Tales of Maj'eyal a indie tile a brutal rogue like whit a lot of customization that spark the love of indie games to me. The game was release in 2012 and still updated. I love the game and I thing it's the hardest to have all the achievement. I often play game until I have 100% but this one have 1782 from this day.
 
Sonic 3 and Knuckles is my favorite game of all time. The level layouts, music, sprites and introduction of Knuckles was amazing! I love the Sonic and Knuckles logo too. As for the other two titles, this one is a bit more difficult for me to pinpoint down. I know Legend of Legaia is up there, it's my favorite JRPG not counting Pokemon. It's a very underrated PS1 title that got overshadowed by Final Fantasy 8.
 
I'm someone who is mostly into RPG games!
So, my top 3 favorite games of all time have to be:

1. Grand Theft Auto 5
2. The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt
3. Assassin's Creed
 
This is a tough one as I have so many games that I have played over the years that I have really enjoyed and picking just three of them is never easy.

I would have to go with the following out of all the games I have played in the past and throughout my time gaming

1. Yoshi's Island
2. Destiny 2
3. Call of Duty Black Ops 3

I could list so many more but those are the games I would say I have had a ton of fun playing and I really enjoyed.
 
Tough choice indeed !

1. Worms Armageddon (and the Worms series in general). One of the first PC game I played, loved it. The simplicity of the game and the fun weapons were all I needed. Also my first online game, where I learnt a little english to talk with other people, a lot of abbreviations like glhf, and all the roping modes. I think I played most of the games of the series, but not one did manage to work as well as Armageddon in my opinion, especially on the physics side of the game. Still lauching the game once in a while, just to mess with people with some concrete donkeys or armageddons !
Also, the origin of my username, if it was not obvious :D

2. Advance Wars DS (And the whole serie in fact). The game I played the most, without a doubt ! I discovered AW2 in a game tips magazine my mother bought for me, at first for Super Mario Bros 3. In this same magazine, there was tips for AW2. When looking at the screenshots I felt like I needed this game. I bought it, fell in love. The AWDS entry had so much content it was never ending, between the camain, challenges, CO levels/ranks, and the map editor. I had my Nintendo DS almost always with me, day and night, at home or outside which explain the absurd number of hours I have on it.

3. The Binding of Isaac. My introduction to roguelikes/roguelite games, and I loved it. Though sometimes this game really makes me want to throw the whole computer through the window and eat my keyboard ! But 1k hours later, all secrets unlocked, and I still continue to do some runs, so yeah.

if you like advance war I recommend wargroove
 
I'm mostly into kiddie games like Mario and Donkey Kong. They are enough for me, at the moment. However, if I could seriously get back into gaming, I would like to try stuff like Shattered Sun RTS. Anyway, though, I did like Zelda back in the day. I'm assuming this game is some sort of space age Zelda, right?

Note: I don't have any top three games. However, the 3 series of games I like are Mario, Donkey Kong, and Mario Kart.
 
Some of my favorite video games are more than just three but I'm just gonna have to name the top 3 for me now. They are ;

1. Elden Ring
2. Ghost of Tsushima
3. Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice

When you look at these three games, you will see one thing that's in common with all of them and that's them being Soulsborne games.

So many games out there that I always loved to be able to play but then I can't say my list regards the top three, that's too hard. I started back years ago from Age Of Empires (hence the name) then from Halo and also did the GTA series from GTA3 days :)

But nowadays for the last five or so years as you get older, most people change don't they so my list is different to 10 years ago.

  1. MSFS2020
  2. P3D
  3. valheim
 
Hrmmm, had to think hard on this one buuuuuuuut....

1. Perfect Dark (N64)
2. Super Mario World (SNES)
3. Kingdom Hearts (PS2)
 
From the game I played are:
1)Supcom FAF
2)Titanfall 2
3)Barotrauma
You know, supcom as an options sound like cheating here, so
4)Nebulous: Fleet commander
