Best Game Ever
 

What do you think is the best game is and game series in existence for the PC?

I think the best game series is the Grand Theft Auto Series and the best game is Half-Life
-SImo

best game warlords battle cry 2

best series is a lot harder

god thats hard

biowares rpgs

like never winter nights

and baldurs gate come to mind


but there are alot of good ones

I have to agree with Dragonfire on the Bioware games for the series.
Best game for the pc is Planescape:Torment at least as far as single player RPGs go

Half-life or Deus Ex.

Man I had a blast with both of them and HL had great multiplayer to boot.

I'd have to say that Deus Ex might have had a better singleplayer experience over HL by just a bit. I felt that I had more control over everything... although HL had slightly better immersion. Dammit. I don't know which game was better now. They were the absolute best though.

Final Fantasy 3

Best Game: Half Life
Best Series: Wing Commander.

I could never get into Deus Ex - tried it a few times but just found it a bit slow and boring. I like Tac Ops - online games have far more replay ability. I got a bit addicted to Dungeon Seige when that first came out, and of course the Civilization series is brilliant.

Best game? I have no idea!
Best series? Final Fantasy ... certainly the best games ever made.

Best game: Half-Life. Best single and multiplayer around still imho.

Best Series? Dunno, I guess it would be the Unreal series for me only cause it's the only series I've played from the begining.

I'm adding best sleeper game: Alice :)

Best game: Half-life (Not truly the best, but groundbreaking in it's design, use of limited hardware, and production values)
Best Series: Final fantasy

this has been done many times, but i enjoy the question. I never have played a ton of pc games, but i've gotten my feet wet.

fave game..... probably Baldur's Gate II

series? well, BG :)

i never could get into half life.....

Best Game: Civ 3

Best Series: Bioware

any final fantasy

one of my favorite space sims: freespace2

i also have to go with black isle/bioware RPGS: i liked planescape:torment so much i played it over and over, which i almost never do to any game now (i'm attempting my 2nd time through BG2, but it's taking forever...).

the fallout series is great too...

best game hmm toss up betwee: mech warrior 2 and Sam and Max.

best series, monkey island

Best series: Black Isle/Bioware's various D&D titles, with the pinnacle being BG2

Best Game: GTA Vice City. I was blown away by the game. When I heard about it, the game sounded so misanthropic that I couldn't bring myself to be interested. I like playing heroes, not psychos. Then I actually played it at a friend's house. Damn. Awesome game, played the hell out of it.

Best series: Everquest

Best game: Starcraft

Diablo series :D

i reckon some game like Civilisation 3 or Railroad Tycoon... i love games where you can just keep on playing and it never gets boring.

but Final Fantasy has been a magnificent series.
but, not sure if they´re quite as good as the Grand Theft Auto games...

FFT. So hot. Still waiting for the rightful successor; the GBA one didn't do it for me.

Best Game: StarCraft Broodwars...hands down.

Best Series: Bioware D&D Baldur's Gate 2 Shadows of Amn/Throne of Bhaal.

Best Game - Alpha Centauri
Best Series - Sim City (Its had the most growth, and continues to push itself)

Sorry, edited.. I have to give best series nod to FallOut

FallOut tactics kicks Ass!!

Best game is Unreal Tournament

The best series: GTA

In its time, the Bard's Tale trilogy was the best... particularly Bard's Tale 3.

Obviously, since then, Final Fantasy has exclipsed it.

Best series: I've got to go with pretty much anything by Blizzard.

Best game: Gotta go with Doom. It started the FPS genre for all intents and purposes. It hasn't held up as well as some others, but I gotta give something that groundbreaking the props.

best game: hl - it's really the first one with a storyline that made me go, and i quote, "holy shit!" more than once.
best multiplayer experience: descent 3
best series: descent series

and i'll be shocked if anyone else is a pyro pilot here....we're a dying breed :(

decent - waht a game - definatly on my tops list

game -Final Fantasy 3.
Best mult i- starcraft/warcraft/Final Fantasy 11
series- hah do i have to say it?

I thought he meant what is the best game for PC and what is the best game series on PC.

If that's indeed what Simo meant, then I'll have to say my favorite PC game is Battlefield 1942, even though I understand it's not "the best." My favorite series would have to be...well, I don't have a favorite series. I don't play enough PC games to make a decision on that.

-Lasereth

yah - thats what I meant

Ok, best shooter- Counter Strike
best MMORGP - UO (it was awesome when it first came out)

Fallout for best series

best overall ultima underworld- the thing was at least 10 yrs ahead- anybody else know what i mean?

Best Game: PST.
Best Series: BG

Best turn based game evar: X-com

Best Game: Tie between Uplink and Starcraft

Best Series: GTA

Half Life. I dont think anything has had the lasting appeal that game has.

Final Fantasy 7

(ps. Avent Children is coming out this summer!)

Best game, starcraft.

best series, gta (1,london, 3 and vc) i thought 2 was kinda cheezy

Best game : Starcraft
Best series : Final Fantasy. I actually like ALL of them.

game: it's between half-life and starcraft. Starcraft is just timeless, and is still the shit to this day. Half- Life...well, I think it's one of the best simply because it did a good job of putting you in Freeman's place. Hopefully Doom III will surpass that, though.

series: Final Fantasy, hands down. Personally, I don't like many of them asid from 2, 3, and 7, but you have to respect a game series that still kicks ass after 15+ games.

Best Game: Half Life over Deus Ex ONLY because it had multiplayer.

Best Series: Final Fantasy

Best RTS: StarCraft
