    There must be over 1000 ways to complete this game, open missions in an open world.

    Lots of other games are good.

    but this is the best

    NFSMW :rock:
    It's the only game that i've played from start to finish more than a couple of times. The mods which can be done are pretty good. Adding all sort of cars, from cops to Ferrari's is pretty easy, but i'd like to learn how to scratch build cars... i don't have anywhere near that much time free though!

    Close runners up for me are racing simulators, but i have to mention Gran Turismo as the best [SIZE="-7"](played it under windows via emulator)[/SIZE] & GTA San Andreas. Vice City & previous NFS games were all awesome aswell when they came out. NFSMW sort of mixes GT & GTA = Cheesecake :clap: I haven't tried undercover or nitro yet, i'm not exactly a hard core gamer :D

    I haven't ever played Dues Ex either i don't think... i've played a bit of doom, counter strike, tried crysis, but i prefer racing & even flying games. I used to love descent actually... that was a while ago!

    If you haven't played Driver (the original), you'd probably like that too.

    I couldn't pick one today if i spent months trying.. but i can say that gta series has a special place in my heart. When i got my first ps2. and gta 3 for Christmas. i remember playing the game all day. and time literally "flew by" It was dark out side by the time i realized what kind of time i spent. the first driver is a fantastic game.. Oblivion was pretty fun at the time too.. i like open world stuff. i guess i need to check out deus ex from the sound of it. i tried it before but it didn't click for me. i'll give it another go.

    Most Memorable Games:

    Half-Life (Played TFC and CS in its first release to death)
    Unreal Tournament, Unreal Tournament 2, Unreal Tournament 3 ( #1 Still calls to me )
    Half-Life 2 - At the time the effects were amazing.
    Quake & Quake 2
    I play a lot of TF2 now, its not fantastic but it's fun for an hour or so...

    I'm also a WOW fan, but my gf keeps me in this reality :)

    Old enough to buy alochol so it's all good :thumb:

    But whats 'young' about not being able to chose a favourite game? If anythign it's normally younger people that choose their favourite game of the moment as their favourite game of all time and is likely to change

    Based on nothing more than how much fun I had playing them, usually with mates (which will obviously vary greatly from person to person), and in no particular order:

    Total Annihilation
    Goldeneye
    Gran Turismo (the original)
    GTA: Vice City
    Half-Life 2

    Judging objectively what the best game of all time was is much, much harder, however.

    Only because I like the multiplayer, I would probably put COD and CS:S up there but I've never played either online

    I hate you, but I find my mouse drawn to the rep button because that was a FLAWLESS VICTORY (or loss). Whatever, I don't care.
