Desert Island Games?

Mr E

OK, so you're stuck on a desert island. On your own. You have electricity, and access to a PC and all consoles. What 3 games would you take with you? Obviously these games would stand up to multiple play-throughs (not games that you finish in 10 hours and never touch again). You have no net access and you're on your own (so no multiplayer games).

What 3 games do you take?

1. Tetris DX (GBA)
2. Super Mario Allstars (SNES)
3. Animal Crossing (Cube)

GTA Sa 100%

1. Super Mario Allstars (SNES) as well - 4 games in one after all...
2. Pinball Fantasies (Amiga) - There may only be 4 tables but they're so addictive they almost made me break my machine...
3. Yoshi's Island 2 (SNES) - Just to keep at it until I got 100 points on each level and unlocked all those worlds...

1. Super Smash Bros Melee (GC), just for the challenge of trying to get all 292(iirc) trophies.
2. Metroid Prime (GC), and a list of all known sequence breaks and how to do them.
3. Wario Ware Inc (GBA) for when ADD kicks in...

Retr0gamer

1. Final Fantasy VII (could play it forever)
2. Radiant Silvergun (so many ways of bettering your score that its silly)
3. Gunstar Heroes (have never been bored of this game)

with an honourable mention to Operation Flashpoint

i'm not a fan of rpgs, and the majority of games that i've played have only been worth playing through once, so...

Metroid Prime - what kirb said
Metroid Prime 2: Echoes - hard mode 200% game in under 3 hours
Super Mario Kart - heart

Wertz

In no particular order;

GTA:SA

Wip3Out special edition (has most of the tracks from original and 2097) PS1

McCrae Rally 04 (xbox)

nosmo

Morrowind because it's so damn huge
Nethack because it's so replayable
...probably GTA:VC, but I'm not sure about the replayability

ykt0di9url7bc3

1) System Shock 2 - such a story\such options
2) Rome Total War - for the RTS alone
3) ToCA Touring Car 2 - Great tracks, great cars, great options, good AI

Op Flash barely misses the cut
