5 Games

[Houston]

If you could only play 5 different games for the rest of your life.

What games would you pick and why?

I'll post mines later, I have to go to work.

 

[MvP]

Pokemon Fire Red
Super Mario 64
Oblivion
Call of Duty 2
World of Warcraft (i don't like the game but it'll keep me occupied for a long time)

 

[A Tasty Burgerr]

Halo 3
Oblivion
Tony Hawk Pro Skater 4
Civilization IV (like MvP said, not my favorite but extremely time consuming)

then if the Orange Box counts as one game I'd pick that easily, if not then Half Life 2

Rock Band 2 - I still play it more then 3 or 4 times a week and my character is g.o.a.t.
NBA 2k9 - I would be forced to work on my chise
Skate 2 - The demo itself is good enough, the whole game would be like crack
Halo 3 - Online Multiplayer is sick, could switch from doing the matchmaking modes to Co Op
Pokemon Fire Red - Obvious.

 

[Wildcard]

Call of Duty 4: Modern Warefare
Tekken Tag
World of Warcraft
Starcraft 2
And if people played it still... Madden 09 PS2. Cuz PS2 Maddens are the shit. But I would need other people to play against.

[Houston]

Mass Effect- Massive awesome game with great replay value.
Final Fantasy 10- Long game with a great storyline. I could spend lots of time trying to level everyone up after I'm done with the story mode.
Metal Gear 3- An badass game with an awesome story. The whole jungle aspect of it makes it fun and gives it lots of replay value.
GTA: San Adreas -I could still pop in that game and waste hours without doing a single mission.
COD:4- Story mode sucks but never gets boring online. Whenever I sense a hint of boredom coming up I just create new classes with different Perks and level up different Weapons.

 

[inthecards21]

Gears 2
Fallout 3
If my friends still played it Left 4 dead
Madden and NCAA 09

Call of Duty 4 story mode sucks? Wtf are you smoking? That's easily one of the best story modes for first person shooters ever.

My list:
1. CoD4 - Story mode and online = best FPS ever
2. Halo 2 - The best Halo.
3. Quake 3 Arena - There's a reason this game is 8 years old and people are still winning money playing it.
4. NFL 2K5 - Best football game ever made... hands down! I'd update the roster myself with all that spare time.
5. Pokemon Silver - Favorite Pokemon game ever.

Honorable Mentions:
Counter Strike: Source, Sims 2, Need for Speed: Underground 2, Midnight Club 3: Dub Edition

Umm yeah, what was the main characters name, Soap or something like that? What exactly did he look like?

There were no real cut-scenes and you were just running around shooting people with no real story line.

Wow you must have been high as shit when you were playing that game. No storyline? Are you kidding?

 

[MvP]

I thought the CoD4 story mode was boring but it definitely had a storyline. The MP shits on it though..

 

[Houston]

Well of course it had a story line, er eh something about terrorist..........

I'm talking about real storylines like:

Mass Effect: where there are tons of cut-scenes and you always feel connected to the story

Metal Gear: same thing as MassEffect
Killzone
Halo
GTA4
Assasin's Creed
Alone in the Dark

Those type of games have real characters and a real story line that's always evolving and you miss a big part of the game when you dont pay attention to the stories of these games.

In COD:4, all it was was basically
"Terrorist did this, terrorist did that and we're gonna throw you in the middle of nowhere, just kill all the bad people. And after this mission we're just going to throw you around into another random place with no real explanations or involvement or reaction from your character"

It's hard for a game to have a good story line when your main character doesn't say a single word the whole game...................
