Single best video game you have ever played...

RawR?:
Gryff - Doom 2 may have had a lot of enemies, but so did RE4. Doom 2 was sick though. Also, side note: if you want a game where all you do is kill enemies, get Dead Rising. :)

FreshJive - I wouldn't play D2 for too long. That game took away years of my life and I so regret it. :/

Huh. All I do in that game is get killed and start over because I forgot to save. I mean, after I kill zombies, but still.

For me, it's torture to decide. Maybe WarCraft III. That game owned me for months. I spent my work days researching strategies. I'm never got very good at it online, though.

Big fan of Final Fantasies VI and X, too.

MechWarrior 2 will always have its place in my icy black heart.

I totally agree. I think FFIX is probably my second favourite FF game (FFVII wins on nostalgia value alone, of course) - I was very surprised to learn how few people liked it. I think it was due to those younger players like myself that had been introduced to the series by FFVII, and had gotten used to the darker, cyberpunk design that characterised VII and VIII. FFIX, with its fantasy setting, character classes, and happy-go-lucky main character drove them away. Personally, despite starting with FFVII and so no doubt missing out on many of the in-jokes and homages that were present in FFIX, I appreciate craftsmanship and loved it! It was such a breath of fresh air to play a main character that was happy and confident, for one thing. I loved the complexities of Cloud's character, but when FFVIII continued the trend with that sullen douchebag Squall (As you may gather, I despise FFVIII) I was worried that all future Final Fantasy games would conform. Luckily, Zidane seems to have shaken things up, and Tidus was considerable more loose-wound, if a tad immature. :)

As for the best games I've played, here are a few in no particular order:

1) The Escape Velocity series, especially Nova.
2) Operation Flashpoint.
3) Morrowind and Oblivion.
4) The Total War series.
5) The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time.
6) World of Warcraft (I went cold turkey though!).
7) Battlefield 1942 + Desert Combat mod. (I haven't got round to getting BF2 yet).

And of course: Final Fantasy VII, IX and X.

FFVIII can just implode in a flurry of sewage and used condoms.

I agree, I believe I killed aeon-Jecht with one or two hits and a single limit break by Tidus. Each of my characters had completed their sphere grid section and at least two of the other sections, and Tidus, Auron and Yuna had 4 characters grids completed, along with their ultimate weapons.

I found myself thinking whistfully of Ozma from FFIX. I never defeated that bastard.

nihilist:
Super Mario Bros. 2 was probably the best one of all time.  I mean, it had Luigi!  He was the man.

Spinless:
Gryff, I never owned Doom 2.

But Doom 64 upon it's release owned me like no other game before it.
Also...

DUKE NUKEM 3D.
