This are my current favorites:

1-Alien hominid: For being a fabulous game and teaching those 3D freaks that 2D can still be fun

2-Legend of mana: For being a great game with a great story, good art and excellent music. And having that much freedom of choice.

3-Chrono Trigger: For many, this is the best RPG ever, liked even for those who couldn’t stand any other RPG(Unless it was old school, like Dragon quest), like me.

4-Mario Kart 64: For millions of fans, this was the best Kart racing game ever, I have great memories of this game, Jumping, we miss you!.

5-Jazz Jackrabbit:  It was 1993, and in a world where most played videogames in consoles and arcades, this game proved PC games don’t have nothing to envy to console or arcade games.

And don’t think being in the game industry clears your vision, on the contrary, the existence of some really awful games releases in the last few years can only be explained by many programmers losing the “sight” in a metaphorical way.

The Mario Kart series still has jumping. It was re-added after the GC version. =P

And people say whining is useless, still, Mario kart is the type of game you really enjoy in a Big screen. and whith 2 or more buddies.

That's true, I've always felt that Mario Kart multiplayer on consoles was something really special. Hopefully the Arcade Mario Kart gets ported to GC soon, as it includes jumping and even brings back the coins from the 2D versions.

Lately whining does work when it comes to Nintendo. They've been doing an excellent job the past couple years, when it comes to listening to general consumer demands.
Now if only they'd bring the Mother series on GBA outside of Japan...

1) Total Annihilation...Big bots with killer eye beams wins over the inner child in everyone.

2) Homeworld 2...Play big with battlecruisers, or small with fighters its all glourios eye candy with equally good gameplay to match.

3) Metal Slug...Made side scrollers a bigger mark on the gameworld map, all while being hilarious, and giving us super assult camels and comical SD tanks.

4) Half Life 2...Experiance the coolest gun ever and remeber "We dont go to Ravenholm"

5) Arcanum...steamworks and tech meet magic in an all out clash, and its made by the creators of Fallout.

Hmmmmmm... To put 15 years of gaming into 5 slots is a hard choice...

5. Chrono Trigger - Probably the longest RPG I have continuously played, since the extra mode allows you to keep going and keep leveling up. Awesome storyline and plot. And the graphic design was excellent for its platform.

4. Super Smash Brothers: Melee - An extremely huge and neverending game. So many different people with so many different styles, you may never encounter the same experience twice.

3. Dance Dance Revolution - I've been playing for about 2 and a half years, and it doesn't get old. As long as another "Extreme" or "DDR: Mario Mix"doesn't come out, this game series should stay strong with fans.

2. Paper Mario and the Thousand Year Door - Amazing sound and intreging plot. A great culmination of all past Mario RPG's. Also, quite challenging to use your head with.

1. Silent Hill - Forget the upcoming movie. This was the original horror for gamers. Probably the best known first game in a horror series, it had incredible gameplay with a great story to match.

My top 5 game series. Sorry, but it's much easier if I state which series I like than individual games themselves. These are in no particular order.

Halo, Sonic, Half Life (Counter Strike included), Command & Conquer, Star Wars BattleFront.

Other notable games include: Duck Hunt, Twin Cobra, Bonanza Brothers, Doom, Star Fox 64, Super Smash Brothers, Perfect Dark, Shenmue, Civilization, Alien vs Predator 2, Black & White, Battlefield 1942.

Each and every one of these titles has brought me new and exciting gaming experiences.
