Your top five video games of all time

Had a look and don’t think we’ve ever done a straight up “here are my favourite games”. So share your list. (I know video games is a naff term but so is computer games, and if I’d just said games you’d all say British bulldog or various other comedy answers.)

Different games for different… needs.

dunno but World of Warcraft and some kind of Mass Effect would be in there. Also Breath of the Wild.

Nice thread idea!

In no particular order probably something like

Final Fantasy X
Mario Maker (likely soon to be eclipsed by MM2)
Football Manager
Skyrim
GTA 5 (likely soon to be eclipsed by the next GTA game tbqh)

Not many people who’d accept it being a better game than Ocarina/Majora’s/BOTW, probably myself included. Just personally have fonder memories of playing it.
