Pokemon gold, silver, and crystal (couldn't put those three down when I was little)

My game cartridge for Pokemon Silver broke, so I was forced to put it down This was of course before I started using emulators on my computer.

When my games finally broke (about 3 or four years ago) I was super pissed because the pokemon games after those three weren't nearly as in depth. The only one's the came close in my opinion were Fire Red and Leaf Green, but they got boring really quick. I also believe that FR and LG had the most challenging pokemon league. R/S/E and D/P/Pt were so easy and the story was as dumb as the show.

Funny story though. I bout a DS just to play Diamond, beat it that day (caught everything there was to catch in Diamond and evolved everything there was to evolve), and returned the DS and sold the game the next day XD

You have too much money and too much time on your hands if you have this many systems

Need for Speed Hot Persuit.....

It's also been announced the Best racing game of year.

Kinda surprised to see Day of Reckoning 2 in your list since everyone I know who played the game told me it was terrible. But hey, it's all subjective so good for ya if you liked it.

With that said, I disagree with baba. You don't have too much time to kill; you're a real hardcore gamer! Welcome in the family! :p

^I'm surprised to hear that about DoR2. The biggest complaint I remember about the game (that I heard), is that the first was better (which in aspects is true). Although, the story mode wasn't to great in DoR2, the fatal four way cage match is way too hard, but the storyline is different and interesting (to me at least, something along the lines of Raw's World title being stolen at Wrestlemania, screwing up the main event, you get framed, go to Smackdown, rise up the ranks again, reveal whom framed you, and I forgot who it ends). I don't go by story though, I really only care about the actually game play, which I really enjoy (Although, I suppose it wouldn't be as fun alone).

The game play was cooler in the first game for ladder matches, as I remember once I was standing on top of a ladder outside of the ring, and I drop-kicked into the ring to the ladder set up while someone was trying to capture the belt. I also recall the vise versa, dropkicking from the top of the ladder set up insider the ring to one outside the ring. They got rid of the ability to do that, but I love the game. Oh, but for the record, I consider the GameCube to be a bad system in terms of games, so it's not exactly saying much.

Back to my list, my brother got New Super Mario Bros. Wii and that definitely ranks as third. I'll hopefully get Donkey Kong Country Returns on Christmas, so that may beat it.

1. Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time
2. Super Mario Bros. 3
3. Sonic the Hedgehog 3 & Knuckles
4. Donkey Kong Country 2
5. Marvel vs. Capcom 2
6. Tekken (as a whole; can't pick a favorite game)
7. Street Fighter III
8. Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask
9. Super Smash Bros. Melee/Brawl
10. Bayonetta
11. Red Dead Redemption
12. WWE: Here Comes The Pain
13. Legend of Zelda: Wind Waker
14. Soul Calibur II
15. Pokemon

With the mention of SF, I might as well throw those on my list too, along with MK.

Limiting myself to one game per series.

Metal Gear Solid: 3 Snake Eater
Def Jam: Vendetta
Guilty Gear XX
NBA Live 10
Final Fight III
Saturday Night Slammasters
Pokemon Gold/Silver/Crystal
Splinter Cell: Double Agent
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Turtles In Time
Crash Bandicoot 3
Sunset Riders
Uncharted 2
Super Ghosts N' Goblins
Dragonball Z: Budokai 2
Donkey Kong Country

Should've had Sonic 3 & Knuckles on my top Genesis list instead of Sonic 3. Consider it changed (as it, I'm not changing it, too lazy).

I didn't put Ocarina of Time on because it's been quite some time since I've last played it, but that's definitely a close five or so (the N64 rocks). I didn't care much for Majora's Mask, it was fun for awhile but the concept eventually just started to become more of a pain than something that positively added to the game.

In no particular order; Final Fantasy X, Metal Gear Solid, Final Fantasy VII, Metal Gear Solid 2, Metal Gear Solid 3, Mortal Kombat II and Trilogy, Evil Zone, Smackdown, Smackdown 2, Smackdown Shut Your Mouth, Smackdown Here Come The Pain, Spider Man (Playstation 1), Spider-Man 2 Enter Electro, Spyro 1, 2 and 3, WWF War Zone, WWF Attitude, WCWNWO Revenge, WCW vs. NWO World Tour, Super Mario Brothers, Legend of Zelda A Link to the Past, Legend of Zelda OOT, Mass Effect 1 & 2, Pokemon Red, Blue, Yellow, Gold, Silver and Crystal.

Fallout 3, Resident Evil 1, 2, 3, CV, Remake and 0, Devil May Cry 1, 2 and 3, X-Men Legends, Armor Cored 2, Command & Conquer, Legend of Dragoon, Buffy the Vampire Slayer and Metal Gear Solid 4.

And that's only off the top of my head.
