Have I posted yet? I do not believe so.

In no order, because it would take me an hour to get that.

BG2, NWN2, Warcraft 3, MotB(NWN2), :unsure:

Anyways, why is W3 on the list? Because more than any other game, any other it keeps bringing me back. I have played Warcraft more times than BG2. And probably 3 times since I last played BG2 some 2-3 years ago. I'm not fully sure what it is that keeps bringing me back, the story is good, and the units are fun, but I wouldn't suspect that much. Oh well.

And MotB gets on the list for taking me to Act 2 with a character I decided about 2 hours before that I didn't like. NWN2, well they give you some good and compelling things at the beginning, with some very fun interaction between your party and with it. (Though I commonly forget to talk to them). And BG2, well they have been the game which I compare so many others to, for story and interaction, even if I do not play it as much anymore. And even after all this time, I can still write fanfic for it, something I haven't commonly done for almost any game.

MY top five would be:

1. Baldur's Gate

I really like the open expanses of territory to be explored here. BGII keeps you cooped up, but not BG!

2. Baldur's Gate II

I'm not a fantasy fan, but after seeing BGII, I decided to try it out and I was agreeably surprised. I just had to try BG afterwards.

3. Sid Meier's Gettysburg

What can I say? I'm a Civil War buff. Sort of...

4. Outlaws

The fast-paced action of this game never failed to amuse me, especially with multi-player. The music in this game is absolutely outstanding, too.

5. Call of Duty

Of all the FPS games I've played (not many) this one struck me as the most realistic.


A bit of additional info for all you Fallout fans. Perhaps you know it already, but I found out that the voice actor for Aerie in BGII also did some voicing for the Master in Fallout.
