All time I'd go: SOCOM 2, FFX and Zelda:OoT. Lots of others crossed my mind though: Tribes:AA, Pokemon Red/Blue, Call of Duty series, WoW, League of Legends (my current time sink), Toejam and Earl (my avatar) and Banjo Kazooie.
You're half-right. I love healing and my main is a priest. But I also love ranged deeps. I have two healers (priest, holy paladin) and two ranged DPS (mage, hunter) as my 80s. I actually started off as melee DPS...my paladin was originally retribution. But I got tired of melee. Tanking is something I've never really had the right mentality for. I find it too stressful to be fun. Why are you surprised that I play WoW and why did you see me as a healer and not as DPS? Just out of curiosity.
that's cool. i never played dota and am not really interested at all in hon since it actually costs money, but my brother got me to start playing league of legends a few months back and it's a pretty fun game that i assume is very similar to the other two.
I don't know... just a hunch about the healing. Fits your personality (or the personality that you post with). I find that healers have a different disposition than most dps. Usually smarter players too. It takes quite a bit more skill to keep a raid/party alive than it does to spam dps. I played a rogue, mage, and warlock to 60 before the first xpac. I lvl'd a priest to 70 with my lock in the Burning Crusade. I bought the second xpac but never actually lvl'd a character to 80. Healing is infinitely more difficult than playing a rogue or lock. More satisfying too.
Yeah they are rather similar, but DotA/HoN have specific characters (about 60) that always have the same skills. So you know what to expect out of this one or that one, generally. The subtly comes from item choices and skill order.
Old skool: Star Control 2 Heroes of Might and Magic 3 Fallout 1 New Skool: Call of Duty Modern Warfare Mass Effect 2 Crysis.
Star Control 2 was great. I should look that up again. I just finished Crysis a few weeks ago. Also enjoyable. I'm trying to finish Mass Effect 1 so my character can carry over into the new game, but I'm distracted by little puzzle games right now.
There's a freeware version of the game that works on windows, here's the link: http://sc2.sourceforge.net/ Also for any of you guys that have fond memories of games from yesteryear, this is a great distributor: http://www.gog.com/en/frontpage/
Civilization IV, whatever the latest Madden I have is. That's about the extent. Though if it has a "GM Mode", I seem to like it. So I've been gifted NCAA football and NBA 2K in the past. All-time? Ultima 5 and 7, the original Final Fantasy, Civ 3. Never really got into FPS games.
its hard to rank "favorite" since so many games are great. So I'll just post games that changed gaming for me. Goldeneye, Metal Gear Solid, Morrowind (then was SEVERELY outdone by Oblivion), Final Fantasy 7, Mario 64, The Halo Series, The Modern Warfares
Based on what I play with my kids. 1 - Call of Duty MW2 (360) 2 - Mario Cart (Wii) 3 - Call of Duty W@W. I also play the Halo games with my kids, but they like them MUCH more than I do. I'm not a big Halo fan. There isnt much strategty involved IMO... its too chaotic.
New school: Counter-Strike: Source Team Fortress 2 Oblivion Old school: Diablo 2 Doom Counter-Strike 1.6
Alright, I have to revise my picks after being both reminded of a bunch of games and the two category style being used. Old School: Twisted Metal 2 Team Fortress Classic Metal Gear Solid New School: Fallout 3 MGS:4 Batman: Arkham Asylum Honorable mention: Uncharted 2: Among Thieves
