That's a too complicated list for me... i can't really order my preferences. Depends on my mood daily, really.

 

Let's just say I love

- Starcraft for its truly excellent storyline,

- RA2 for it's gameplay,

- Heroes 3 for being a classic, epic, turn based game, and

- Blade of Darkness for its atmosphere and unique hand to hand combat mechanics.

 

Oh and fuck the new AAA graphics games. Graphics is getting my attention away from gameplay, and I seriously don't like that. If I wanted to see nice scenery, I'd go for a walk or watch a movie.

This is a really hard question for me and I've listed some of my top choices. I have a lot more, but have really tried to narrow it down to just the really favorite ones. They're packed in groups which go together in either genre, game type or something else along those lines (I didn't really pay much attention to the categorization, actually). I've just jotted these down from the top of my head, so there are definitely more options I could put down.

 

ACTION FPS:

C&C Renegade

Call of Duty (+ United Offensive)

Joint Operations (+ Escalation)

Star Wars: Battlefront 2

Counter Strike: Condition Zero (+ Deleted Scenes)

 

SQUAD-BASED FPS:

Global Operations

SWAT 4 (+ The Stetchkov Syndicate)

 

APOCALYPTIC FPS:

STALKER (series)

Metro (series)

 

REAL TIME STRATEGY:

The Settlers 2: Gold Edition

Age of Empires 2

Dune 2000

C&C Tiberian Sun (+ Firestorm)

Company of Heroes (+ Opposing Fronts and Tales of Valor)

 

SANDBOX "WORLD BUILDER":

Tropico (series)

Evil Genius

The Movies (+ Stunts & Effects)

 

TURN-BASED:

Civilization 5: Brave New World

XCOM Enemy Unknown (+ Enemy Within) ... Waiting for XCOM 2!

 

ACTION RPG:

Mass Effect (series)

Metal Gear Solid (series)

Splinter Cell: Conviction

Assassin's Creed 4: Black Flag

Dungeon Siege 2 (+ Broken World)

Half Life (+ Blue Shift and Opposing Force)

 

PLAYSTATION 1/2:

Oddworld Abe's Oddysee & Exoddus (+ New 'n' Tasty remake)

Gex 3: Deep Cover Gecko

Crash Bandicoot (series)

 

AIR & SPACE COMBAT:

Freelancer

Ace Combat 2

Ace Combat: Assault Horizon

 

So, in retrospect, I like a lot of things. A lot of variety in there by the looks of it. If anyone wants to know more, or what specific atmospheres I enjoy the most, hit me up in private because I tend to talk a lot about the emotional bond I have with various game settings. In short, I mostly prefer and enjoy a lot of story-driven experiences with good character development in a lot of forms.

1: Emperor: Battle for Dune (you can tell I like Dune right?)

Ever try the Discovery server? A few years ago, I started out as an Outcast, and worked my way around the "bad parts" of the map, then switched sides, joined the Order and farmed Outcasts in the Tau systems as easy targets - that got my reputation up with almost 2/3 of the whole universe. Oh and man, that music in the Gallia systems!

 

I hope you like the race mission in Bretonia during the campaign. :D

I'm more of a Junker myself. Going around trading and selling various goods of both legal and illegal status. Made a killing off of nomad parts though.

The way most players start out on Discovery, it's with a semi-hostile Gallia sector... so what I did was get my rep up with Junker bribes. There was this ONE LONE station after the Gallia minefield defense like where I sought refuge, bribed the Junkers, and since Gallian factions like them for some reason (hint: the Junkers could very well be filled Gallia's spies in Sirius) I got a few systems to stop firing at me. Good times! We should play sometime if possible.

Yeah, I just wish they wouldn't be so delete happy with characters that have been inactive for a long time. There was one time I had some codename weapons on the Junker's Super Heavy Fighter.

Here is a list:

 

C&C Series (but not RA3 and C&C4)

-this includes the fan made games like TS:Reborn

Total War Series

Age of Empires 2

Sid Meier's Civilization V

Chariots of War

(Settlers 3)

(Starcraft)

Crusader Kings II

 

Red Orchestra 2 HS

Rainbow Six Rogue Spear and Raven Shield

Planetside 2

Operation Flashpoint Cold War Crisis

(MechaWarrior 3)

Star Wars Battlefront 2

Super Mario 64

Kirby's Fun Pak (Kirby Super Star)

 

 

That list is shorter than I thought. Of course there are games that I like but they aren't worthy to be mentioned on this list.

Killing You, sw galactic battlegrounds is amazing. Do you have a favorite team? I like the Empire :p

Usually I play whatever I feel like, but I think that my favorite might be the Gungans, oddly enough. I like to build grand armies, and being able to place housing underwater is a massive advantage.

C&C Tiberian Sun

C&C Red Alert 2

Minecraft

Age of empires 2

Rollercoaster tycoon deluxe

Mechwarrior 3

 

I can play the last three of these with my gateway 2003 that barely works with Firefo and is below the mimium hardware requirements of chrome. It has an early version of Windows Xp on it but I use it to play games that I could not play on my other computer that died.
