I'm different from most people. While I do like RPGs, I don't play too many of them. I prefer games that I can play for a long time, even years. I prefer games that allow me to be creative. I prefer games that allow me to design and build stuff.

RPGs
Ultima series
The Elder Scrolls series
Mass Effect series
Bioshock series
Dragon Age series
Baldur's Gate
Neverwinter

MMORPGs
EverQuest
Vanguard: Saga of Heroes
City of Heroes
Dungeons and Dragons Online
Star Trek Online

Simulation/Creative/Design Games
SimCity series
Civilization series
Galactic Civilizations series
Cities: Skylines
Age of Empires
The Sims
Minecraft
Robocraft
Prison Architect

Really not much of a gamer but my favourites are easily named:

Deus Ex
Deus Ex: Human Revolution
The Nameless Mod
(quite brilliant DX mod)
Half-Life

There are a lot of other DX mods I like; what sets TNM apart is that it has original voice acting and some terrific original music. And parts of it are just hilarious. (I can't recommend it highly enough to fans of original DX, basically.)

There's a number of other games I liked but haven't played in years (Doom, Heretic, Hexen, Elite Force) or liked but not as much as the original (HL: Opposing Force and Blue Shift, both of which I ought to fire up again one of these days). I just don't have the time to get into anything new any more (though I imagine I'll make some for the forthcoming DX: Mankind Divided), so I go with what I know when I'm in a gaming mood.
 
Hm.. My favourite video game is the Star Trek Elite Force II..


But is it good?

I rather like the very first one. Never got the chance to play the follow up game. But Can't seem to get that sucker working in Win 10.


Also would love to know where one can still buy either. My disk is badly scratched
 
I'm mostly an RPG fan nowadays (more the bioware ones personally) but over the years, it's been FPS's, Strategy or flight sims. The Wing Commander series also tended to be a must buy at the time.

I still regularly play all the Mass Effect, Kotor and Dragon Age series, Jedi Academy and some of the Tomb Raider games. I also chuck on Unreal and Left for Dead on occasion. I haven't played a proper flight sim in a few years though

Overall, the current favourite would be the Mass Effect series.
 
Some of my all time favorites. Obviously I like the sequels to a lot of these games but I thought it better to pick one than name them all.

Alan Wake - Xbox 360
Castlevania III - NES
Civilization II - PC
Halo - Xbox
Half-Life - PC
Katamari Damacy - PS2
Legend of Zelda: Links Awakening - Game Boy
Metal Slug - Neo Geo/Saturn
Panzer Dragoon Saga - Saturn
Perfect Dark - N64
Red Dead Redemption - XBOX 360/PS3
Sonic CD - Sega CD
Shenmue II - Dreamcast
Super Mario Bros 3 - NES
TimeSplitters: Future Perfect - XBOX/PS2/GCN
 
For my current console, I'd say my favorites are Batman: Arkham Asylum, Batman: Arkham City (wish I enjoyed Origins more), Injustice: Gods Among Us, Lego Batman, Lego Batman 2 (wish I enjoyed Beyond Gotham more), Lego Marvel and Lego Star Wars - The Complete Saga (wish I enjoyed The Clone Wars more).
 
Despite what I'm about to write, I'm not a huge console or PC gamer :D
ST Bridge Commander (PC) - still my favourite Trek game
ST Elite Force (PC) - but more for the Virtual Voyager and TOS Starbase 11 mods. Fantastic to walk around.
CoD
GTA
Rainbow Six
GRAW
Splinter Cell
and then in complete contrast:
Ico
Flower
Journey
 
Super Metroid is my favorite game of all time.

Chronotrigger SNES
Earthbound SNES
Mega Man 3 NES
Dragon Warrior NES
Double Dragon II NES
 
After all the games I've played, on all the consoles, good old Nintendo still makes the best Zelda games. No other series gets me excited quite like The Legend of Zelda. I've bought Nintendo consoles just to play Zelda (The Wind Waker remake is what prompted me to purchase a Wii U.)

I wish I could say the same for the Mario franchise, but Nintendo seems to have lost its way. Mario 64 is probably my favourite game ever, but NIntendo's never reached that level since. While the recent 2D games are okay, they don't hold a candle to the majesty and wonder Mario 64 offered.

Mass Effect and Uncharted would get my vote for newer generation series'. Maybe Kingdom Hearts to a lesser extent.
 
We're talking all time here?

Mine are mostly RPGs and platformers. One puzzle game.

Final Fantasy Tactics
Final Fantasy VI
Xenogears
Super Mario Bros 3
Mario 64
Super Mario Galaxy
Mario Kart (Series)
Megaman 3
Legend of Zelda: Link To The Past
Catherine
Shin Megami Tensei: Nocturne
Persona 3
Mass Effect (Series)
Star Ocean 3
Super Metroid
Arkham City
