What is your favorite video game? Personally I like The Dark Mod, a game inspired by Thief: The Dark Project.

I can't possibly choose one, but here are some honorable mentions that I can always go back to:

Super Mario Bros. 3
Super Mario World
Pokemon Red & Blue
Morrowind
Age of Empires II

Resident Evil 2 (original and remake)
Resident Evil 3 (original and remake)
Silent Hill 2
Silent Hill 3
Fatal Frame
Frame Frame 2: Crimson Butterfly
Siren
Siren Blood Curse
Haunting Ground
The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time
The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask
The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion
Fallout 3
Fable 2
Castlevania: The Dracula X Chronicles
Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night
Lone Survivor
Streets of Rage
Golden Axe
The Revenge of Shinobi
Earthworm Jim
The Sims Bustin Out
House of the Dead: Overkill
Yakuza 0
Yakuza Kiwami
Yakuza 4
Way of the Samurai 4

Paper Mario 64
EarthBound
Harvest Moon Magical Melody
Chibi-Robo
Pikmin 2
Metal Gear Solid 3
LISA the Painful
Pokemon Gold
Pokemon Black/2
Ripened Tingle's Balloon Trip of Love
Stardew Valley
Puyo Puyo Fever

My favorite games would have to be the ultimate doom, and doom 2.

Especially with mods.

I've also been currently playing the surge, and dead rising 4

I could never give one favourite. But:

Dark Souls
Dark Souls 3
Bloodborne
Sekiro
Nioh 2
Resident Evil 2 Remake
Resident Evil 4
Silent Hill 1
Silent Hill 2
Deus Ex
FEAR
Final Fantasy VII
Megaman Zero 3&4

Probably a whole lot more I forgot about but w/e

despite everything (I mean mostly the otakuish tone it has sometimes along with the oft weird sexualizing of some optional characters, but the latter is a little debatable) Xenoblade Chronicles 2. The music and most of the story is so incredible that 3's ending, including the Drifting Soul (basically the main lyric song for 2) motif in the credits brought me to tears. specific cutscenes that brought me to tears were Burdened No Longer with definitely-not-trans-allegory Nia and Words Can Be A Curse.

I also love Xenoblade Chronicles 3, Hollow Knight, and every Touhou game

If I've gotta pick just one, it's FEZ. I've bought and played it to 100% on basically every console/platform it's been released on. It's absolutely perfect, from the soundtrack to the art and gameplay etc... Love it.

Super Mario Galaxy (and 2, liked
Super Mario Odyssey
Super Mario 3D World
Mario Kart 8 DX
Sonic Adventure 1 and 2
Kirby and the Forgotten Land
Super Smash Bros. Ultimate
Skate 2
Infamous 2 and Second Son
Yakuza 0
any Tony Hawk game (except for ride, shred, and 5)

there's more but if i listed all of them this would be way too long

also:
I just started playing Metroid Dread, Pokemon Scarlet, and Journey and I like both so far, but too early to form any opinions.

and I am planning to play Dark Souls and Psychonauts today/early next year

I can't choose one, so I'll list them here in no specific order:

To the Moon
Undertale
Postal: Brain Damaged
Postal 2
Postal Redux
Oddworld: New n Tasty
Classic Doom
Portal
Portal 2
Borderlands 2
Pokemon: Leaf Green
Celeste
This War of Mine
Minecraft

I'd like to add Kimgdom Come: Deliverance to my list.

Skyrim.

I can't afford a ps5 right now.

Im sad its sequel is being released next gen only.

...and so many others.

I don't really have a singular favorite game but some of my favorites, plural, would be:
Old School RuneScape
The Sims 4
SimCity 4
Civilization IV
Grand Theft Auto Vice City
GTA V
Trainz: A New Era
Super Mario World
Sailor Moon Another Story
Tony Hawk's Underground and Tony Hawk's Underground 2
Darkstalkers (the entire series, bring it back Capcom)
Super Gem Fighter Mini-Mix
Super Puzzle Fighter II Turbo

Probably others too that I forget, but these are the games I love a whole lot.

No single favourite and in no particular order

Tenchu: Wrath of Heaven
LotZ: Ocarina of Time, Link to the Past, Breath of the Wild
GTA 3 trilogy
EA NHL series up to 2011
WWF No Mercy
WWE Smackdown: Here Comes the Pain
Road Rash 64
The New Tetris
Metal Gear Solid 3-5
007 Goldeneye
Perfect Dark
Dynasty Warriors 4 and 5

Civilization II. This runs on System 9; I need an emulator to play it for the past decade or so.

I used to play Master of Orion III, but that no longer functions on Mac systems later than 10.4. I tried the newest MoO, but it was much weaker gameplay value, much less interesting (read: ridiculously humanoid) aliens. I have secured an old windows package to run under boot camp, and may succeed in resurrecting a favorite gaming experience.

I think I might play Civilization II continually for 25+ years in part to channel aggression against NT's, who have persecuted me en masse literally for as long as I can remember.... I always used to wonder why I seemed to be a "bully magnet".
