Can't pick one really. Would have to throw together a munged list featuring Final Fantasy VII, Final Fantasy X, Radiant Silvergun, ICO, Deus Ex, Grandia, Zelda 64 and Soul Calibur.

And probably about twenty I've forgotten

(Oh, and right at the moment Counter-Strike, but that's very much a love-hate relationship )

I love these threads.
Heres my top 5

1. Final Fantasy VII (nothing else comes close)
2. Metal Gear Solid (better than any action film I've ever watched)
3. Grandia (You've gotta love Justin, Sue and Feena. Play it and you will fall in love with the characters)
4. Gunstar Heroes (My fave treasure game. I'm not insane enough to get radiant silvergun)
5. Final Fantasy X (Best story since FFVII and best combat system since Grandia)

GoldenEye - best FPS on any console. Still!

Revenge of Shinobi (Mega Drive) - ok it looks dated, but God almighty such a challenge. First game I got, and it had two different endings.

Sure there's dozens more
