What do you think the best game ever is? I would say Final Fantasy 8. Though of course Pro Evo is pretty damn cool.
the best footie game is we6fe but i'd say MGS2 is the most legitimate best game. if that makes sense.

I wasn't keen on MGS2. The best game ever.....hmm i dunno, probably GTA3 when it first came out. That game was amazing when it was first released as there hadn't been a game anywhere near that standard before. Thats was a game you could spend weeks at a time playing after you had completed all the missions.

Defender for the Atari VCS!
Apart from the mighty PES2, GTA: Vice City has got to be my favourite. I also think that GoldenEye for the N64 is one of the best games ever made. The multiplayer is brill!

Rebus, have you tried the newer version of Defender for PS2?
It looks quite good.
If the best game comes down to which game you play the most, it would have to be PES and PES2 for me.
SWOS for the Amiga was amazing for ages though.
Streetfighter is always good too.
i do like SOCOM the online one and im addicted to the demo of it. its like mgs2 with real people.

Did anyone ever play Gauntlet for the Commodore 64? I used to love that game, then one day the tape vanisshed and i could never find another copy of it.:(

Cheers mate. I'll have a look.
ff8? mgs2? 0_o. final fantasy 7 is the best game ever by a very long way. oh, and minesweeper, of course.
Lord Shrimpeh
21-07-2003, 20:06
Final Fantasy 7 is amazing but i think final fantasy 8 is the better game, ff7 was more revolutionary though.

Mind you i guess Space Invaders would have to be the best because it was the origional game and probably influenced all the others in some way.

Lol, okay, but the first video game was probably space invaders or someother equally addictive but completly out dated piece of nostalgic video game genius.

final fantasy 8 and metal gear solid 2 are crap compared to ff7 and mgs.... best games ever is final fantasy 7 and then not so closely following (since ff7 is so far ahead) is a patched version of we6fe :)
rebusrahman
24-07-2003, 17:11
Seriously, I think PONG was first in 1972. I'm sure it outdates Space Invaders.

28-07-2003, 13:54
pong is always refered to as the first.... so i assume it is. space invaders probably came quite some time after because its more complex isnt it....
rebusrahman
29-07-2003, 10:52
Pong was first! Space Invaders was much later and more of a commercial venture at a guess
i did enjoy mcdonald land for the amiga. wot a game. jus makes you hungry though.

Hey! What about Rainbow Islands and Bubble Bobble. What was the third one called again?
dream team
29-07-2003, 12:37
for me it got to be final fantasy 10 for the videos and storyline, alos pro evo and timesplitters 2 oh and eternal darkness for the gamecube is brill
Sports wise it would have to be SWOS in the 90`s and now pro evo. I just wish that pro evo would look back a bit at this game and learn some things from it. They had every player from every league in it and it has to be said 13 years on there career mode is far better than the pro evo master league now. You could even swop leagues and teams throughout your career. I loved that game.:mad:

Wow, can you download it using some emulator? What was it for? And another good game was Baldurs Gate 2 for the PC you could do anything on it. Literally.

Win what?......Who shares the drinks?.........sounds like a really shit kiddies game to me mate! Why not get crates instead of just 9 cans of this and 6 cans of that? How old are you? If your buying cider and tennants super then you must be young!

SWOS = Sensible World Of Soccer.
It was before the times of buying licences for players and teams so that's why it had all the details included.
It was great to be offered the position of manager of other clubs but you could only be the national manager of the nationality you gave yourself which was a shame.
Great game.
FIORE_FAN
30-07-2003, 12:13
SWOS was great together with Kick Off's Player Manager!!! Man - the hours spent on those two games!
How about these old Amiga games:
Bards Tale I and II
Price of Persia
FLASH BACK
Super Cars
Kick Off (which started it all)
PREMIER MANAGER!!!
Rick Dangerous
And finally: the best golfgame ever!! Micropose Golf! Why don't they remake that game together with Micropose Formula One???
And for the old PSOne:
Tomb Raider - when it first came out? The first game of it's kind with such a great storyline!
Fade to Black! OH MY GOD - what good gameplay and storyline!!
Best party game ever: MicroMachines V3!!
Ok, ok.... i'll stop now. Suddenly I felt so nostalgic i couldn't stop myself!! - Sorry for tht mates! Take care!

Yeah but back then if you where a national coach you had to be from that nation didn't you?

I never really went along that RE wave - sorry. I only played bits of it, but never really thought much about it. Silent Hill was way better because you were free to roam wherever you wanted. RE - I think - was linear. Didn't like those still backgrounds with only the characters "plottet" into them.
BlueScouse
30-07-2003, 12:40
True - but it gave the game a very intense feeling, like when you where getting chased down a corridor by 2 zombie dogs you couldn't just run anywhere like on Silent Hill to get away from them. Then you had the Spiders in the sewers, similar scenario-bigger creatures! I still loved the Silent Hill games aswell.

For Brits that was true.
Not sure about Brazilian and Portuguese coaches with all sorts of national teams back then etc.
I like Resident Evil. But I prefer Onimusha and Devil May Cry.

I've never played Onimusha, any good. I've played a demo of Devil May Cry, i liked it but didn't buy the game.

Onimusha is ok but I actually prefer RE!

Good Man! Its a bit gutting that RE is only gonna be out on the GC now!:mad: :(
Zygalski
30-07-2003, 13:53
Only bad things (for me) about Resi Evil and Onimusha is the lack of ability to jump - which DMC (!) Devil May Cry has lots of.
Onimusha has more class than Resi though.
BlueScouse
30-07-2003, 13:57
Is Onimusha anything like Tenchu? If it is i probably won't like it as i hated Tenchu!
Zygalski
30-07-2003, 14:05
It's much better than Tenchu, blue.
No sneaking about and you can kill everything!
Try it, renting or something.
rebusrahman
30-07-2003, 15:20
Bit over-arcadey tho?
Zygalski
30-07-2003, 15:38
Not more so than Resi.
Plus you don't have to worry about how many bullets you have left.
You can block in Onimusha and fighting with swords etc is more sylish than guns.
rebusrahman
30-07-2003, 16:50
Have to disagree. Felt Oni was very hack and slash whereas RE had simple strategy added. Plus the atmos was better I feel. And I finished Oni very easily.
Zygalski
30-07-2003, 16:56
Onimusha is hack and block.
Resi is shoot and run away and shoot.
Onimusha 1 was quick to complete but Resi seems longer because of all the awkward saving positions.
How about Onimusha 2?

I think the final fantasy series contains some of the best games ever, FF7 was a brilliant early playstation title and all the games in the series have had brilliant graphics (for their time), addictive gameplay and are simple enough for anyone to play (no offense).
rebusrahman

The FF games got really boring for me after a while. It always came down to millions of cut scenes, random battles and whether you had that one red crystal and HP of 28000 or not.

for those who like playing with FIFA 2003.....take the brazil and play with ronaldo.....run run run run and shoot and gooaaallll
what a muthafuckin' game.....
FORZA ProEvolutionSoccer
i think that iss pro evolution is personallyi the best game ever made. this is because i never played on my ps1 much and then i got it and couldnt keep of my ps1. from then on i have always been addicted to the pro series which took to knew heights when it reached the ps2. so i think the best game ever is iis pro evolution purely because of it originality, it was just a different league from the current fifa games.
rebusrahman
04-08-2003, 22:25
To me WE is perhaps better than PES cos of the reality factor. I played it a few times and it felt so much more real than PES. PES was quite arcadey but perhaps more accesible. (I do realise Ihave used the word perhaps perhaps a few too many times!!!)

I think Vib Ribbion for the playstation was the best game of all time! The graffics on it!! Man they were goood.

That did look like a cool game. Prob could pick it up real cheap somewhere. I'm still looking for a cheap copy of Parappa the Rapper 2.
deus ex is the best game i have ever played. great game. you can play how you want-stealth or all guns blazing. good mixture of fps action and rpg style conversations/adventure/skills. it is a masterpiece!!!
Punch-out for the NES was a blast. I just downloaded an emulated version!! :D
has any1 herd about street racing syndicate
if so can u please tell me when it is released because i really like the looks of it

The release date is still yet to be confirmed, it might not be out until next year!
SWOS (man that game ate into my life)
Syndicate
PES2
Oh, and I can't remember who asked, but the third Bubble Bobble game was called Parasol Stars.
I feel the need to give an honourable mention to Smackdown JBI, simply because it allowed me to knock hell out of Fred Durst.

for me it has to be halo on the xbox, no game has came close to matching it. it feels like ur in a movie, the music, ai, graphics, script, plot, gameplay everything about the game is quality.
has anyone seen the e3 demo for halo 2, oh. my. god.
(other recent favourites are ff7, gta vice city, pes 2,)
