Having a favorite isn't the same as having a bias. I have favorite games, but it doesn't mean I don't enjoy others. I honestly couldn't choose just one favorite if I had to either. The people who stick with one answer and say all others suck... that comes off as a stubborn bias. For example I really like Ninja Gaiden and Devil May Cry... most people choose one and bash the other. I however don't like God of War and whatever knock offs that are made based on it very much (Dante's Inferno)... not because I see them as opposition, but that I don't like their game play mechanics... or plots. I don't see them as bad games I just don't care for the GOW style so much... I can play it but I don't care for it. I'd have to say the people who have to pick one and say all opposition sucks... probably are just very insecure short sighted people. I think it's alright to make favorites though... I'm just always open to having more as they come.
I'd have to say one of my favorite games of all time is Jade Empire. My favorite console... I have no idea... I guess the PS2 and Xbox 1 as they have the most memorable titles... to me.
Ahh it's good to hear things like this. I'm far too tired of the above mention over-biased people. And I actually realy like Ninja gaiden as well. My pallet for games is very wide so I can enjoy just about anything as long as it's a well made game.
