The best game i have ever played is Call of Duty 4. The strory mode is exciting and the multi-player is phenomanol. You never get bored of it. It is meant to be the Best game you have ever played. Sorry.
In COD4, I got up to the point where you chase a villain down back alleys/ginnels/snickets and have given up on it for the moment. The ever-spawning enemies are very annoying. It's pretty good up to that point, though. I don't think I've played my best game yet, although it'd be something like Destruction Derby 2, HL2ep2 or maybe World in Conflict. The former - I could spend hours taking most of the other cars out, then when I was left with one wheel, I'd position myself somewhere where I'd most likely get hit.. great fun. WiC is the sort of game that requires you to sit and play for hours on end. It is very engaging, although the story is a bit hit and miss, nothing like the 'engagedness' of COD4. HL2 ep2 was utterly captivating and was just the right length for an episode. Something like this, but with more longevity - that'd probably be my best game. Maybe HL3?
CoD4 would have been sublime if it weren't for the respawning enemies, on harder difficulties it just made the game infuriating at some points.
In honesty i don't think COD4 is all that good, yes i enjoyed the SP alot, hell, i completed it on both PC and xbox versions, but to say its the best game ever is far fetched. For those who know me would probably turn around and tell me that the best game to me is C&C Red Alert 2, and they would be right To me, the game is perfect, although, i hope that the new C&C Red Alert 3 can take what was awesome about RA2 and double it for RA3, then that would be my best game ever.... or could it?

Zelda Ocarina of Time or Mario 64 for me I'm afraid. Could be the "rose-tinted glasses" effect of nostalgia but then I'm a bit of a Nintendo fanboy on the quiet.
There are loads of games that I consider really really good, but still the GTA games are the only games that I have been able to play and play and play without getting bored... They may not be the best technically or story-wise, but they are by a long way the most played games in my collection. GTA and Pixel Junk monsters that is.
i have several, so in no particular order..... 1. any ratchet and clank game, but especially the new one for ps3 2. Gran turismo 3. Metal Gear solid ps1 version 4. half life 5. half life 2 there is many more but listing them would take to long
Game i played most through my childhood would have to be escape velocity, dunno if it was the best but could probably account for most of my time. /off topic... the op must have really pissed off the mods, banned already.
I really loved Fairlight on the Speccy when I was growing up, before I got an 8086! Today though, the game that takes up most of my 'Gaming Time' is definitely Team Fortress 2.
Speed Freaks for PS1 Still got it (yet no console to play it on) was an immense game (or was when I frst got my PS1 when I was about 8) spent hours racing a mate.
Probably either Mario 64 or Goldeneye. I haven't played either for a while but I will go back and play them periodically and they still stand the test of time in my eyes. Mario especially is every bit as good now as it was back then, I've not played a better platformer (though I haven't tried Mario Galaxy yet). As for the game that I got the most enjoyment out of, that would be GTA: Vice City. Having played San Andreas, I can see the flaws in GTA:VC - It's by no means a perfect game. But I just lovedthat game, and I knew it inside out (100%, naturally). GTA:SA was possibly a better game technically but I enjoyed VC more, if that makes sense. Actually that's possibly because I got it in my first year at university and was able to play it for hours on end...
Can't resist doing a couple of top 5 lists off the top of my head: Single Player: 1. Final Fantasy VII (PlayStation) 2. GTA: Vice City (PlayStation2) 3. Metal Gear Solid (PlayStation) 4. The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker (GameCube) 5. BioShock (Xbox360) Multiplayer: 1. Super Smash Brothers: Melee (GameCube) 2. Call of Duty 4 (Xbox360) 3. Halo (Xbox) 4. Halo 3 (Xbox360) 5. Burnout Paradise (Xbox360)
GTA VC, Mafia, HL1 + 2, Nolf2, UT (yup, the original one) are some of those that come to my mind... cant really pick a best ever.
Single player - 1) Mafia 2) Half life 2 (I never got round to playing 1) 3) Bioshock Multyplayer - 1)World of Warcraft (Does it count?) 2) CoD4 3)AOE3
Not that I'm totally unoriginal or anything... Single Player: 1. Final Fantasy VII 2. GTA - San Andreas 3. The Legend of Zelda - Wind Waker 4. Super Mario World 5. The Orange Box Multiplayer: 1. Super Mario Kart 2. Goldeneye 3. Call of Duty 4 4. Counter-Strike 5. Team Fortress Classic
Best games for me would have to be the original Tetris and the other is Everquest (also the original).
