    Half Life was the game that changed gaming for me, also Champ Manager/Footy Manager was the one I probably put most hours into although haven't played it now for umpteen years.

    However if pushed I'd say Red Dead Redemption 2, the 1st was my previous top title. Just right up my street. Mention to The Witcher Wild Hunt, never played a single one of the previous but what a game, nearest to RDR titles.

    Well my favourite game is Mass Effect 2 but objectively I'd probably say Red Dead 2 aswell.
    There's a few games that rival it in certain categories like The last of us 1, witcher 3, skyrim etc but the open world in RDR2 sets it apart imo, it might be the single most impressive feature I've ever seen in a game and when you add its story and characters into the mix its hard to beat.

    In terms of pure fun and enjoyment.

    Personally for me, GTA Vice city and or San Andreas.

    Ffx probably one of the most enjoyable and returnable games I've ever played.

    Football manager (and old champ) has the most hours spent on it for sure.

    Other big mentions are the GTA games (many if not all have their place).
    Childhood was spent playing tony hawk games and gran turismo as well.

    Arguably much more will be "better", but from a personal point, these all hit big time


    Red dead redemption games as well, unreal games and experiences

    Has to be counter strike. That properly * my schooling up :56: :56: probably could've been a full blown surgeon if I spent those 5000+ hours on counter strike on actual school stuff. * loved it.

    Yeah i thought the animation was superb, it's a game that has a lot of sentimentality for me, a certain time in my life, some great memories.

    I actually had an Atari in the late 70's, that's how far back i go. :52: :67:

    FFs we're old :52:
    Atari, Spectrum, Megadrive, Saturn, PS but finally a PC!
    Actually bought that 32X Megadrive thing just so I could play Doom without getting a PC

    First multiplayer for me was Battlefield 1942 (2002/2003?)...jumping into planes, helicopters, jeeps, tanks but mostly infantry, I'd never seen anything like it and spent ridiculous hours on that.
