Title: So I was wondering
Post by: LSDLucifer on May 12, 2013, 08:30:28 PM
What is your favorite video game series?

and

What is your favorite type of music?


For me the game series is a toss up between The Elder Scrolls and Shin Megami Tensei.

Music wise black metal or symphonic metal

Hate to break it to you, but we already have a thread (http://www.cutstuff.net/forum/viewtopic.php?f=9&t=3195) for favorite music, albeit a bit outdated.  As far as I can find, we have no topic specifically for video game series, so I'll just move this to the General Gaming Discussion~

Edit: Guess I'll state the obvious and say my favorite game series is Kingdom Hearts~

and I'll have to state the even more obvious that mine is Sonic, and not quite as obvious that I like Kirby just as much.

My favorite series is that of the Mega Man series as expected but my second favorite is the Ace Attorney series, preferably with Ghost Trick included as they have the same developers.

I don't have one.
Most series that I have played most (or even all) games of (like Mario, R-Type or Portal) just don't have any games that I love enough to really qualify them as a favorite series.
Other series like Ys, Sonic or Final Fantasy just can't count because I haven't even played half of the main games.

Since I can't just pick one, I'll list my most favorite series that come to mind. With the only requirement that I have played most or all of the games in the series.

Etrian Odyssey, Fire Emblem, Rune Factory, Pokémon, Kirby, Sonic the Hedgehog.

There are a lot of video game series and franchises out there that I love, spanning many different genres and developers. I don't like to choose favorites amongst them.

Yeah I started to think about it and I guess favorite is a poor wording. I was thinking more along the lines of what games have made me lose track of time, forget to eat, sleep etc. Those games that have really drawn me in to the point of forgetting all else exists and favorite just doesn't justify it correctly, because along with Megaten and TES the first six FF, Chrono Trigger, and Illusion of Gaia have all done that to me. Also the Battlecry and HOMM series and damn ubisoft for doing the horribleness of HOMM 6.

I'd say that the only two games that really drew me in like that are Final Fantasy IX and Tales of Symphonia.

Games that I spent whole days/nights on?
-Diablo II
-Anno 1503
-My Metal Slug night when I played through 5, 6, 1, X, 3, 4 and 5 in that order. It was the most fun thing ever. And yes, I played MS5 twice in the same night because it is just that good.
-My Final Fantasy VI day thing on 21/12/12
-Energy Breaker (I will always love this game. There is nothing like it in the entire world.)
-Irisu Syndrome

Games that I just really really enjoy playing but that are too short to really suck me in?
-Soldier Blade
-Battle Mania Daiginjou
-Thunder Force V
-Metal Black
-meritous

My favourite series could be Serious Sam, Doom or Wolfenstein. Even though I haven't played Wolfenstein 2009 yet.
...Aaaaand do the Quake games count as series?


I couldn't spend entire days playing games, heheh.

Oh ok let's list what I know off the top of my head/this probably isn't all of them for favorite/most time spent.
In no particular order:
Megaman, Touhou, LoL, Worms Series, Cave Story, Sonic, Irisu Syndrome, Portal Series, Awesomenauts, Legend of Zelda, Animal Crossing, and Kid Icarus Uprising.

Again, those are just from looking at my desktop and/or memory at 3am while largely forgetting things.

God, there's so many different series that I love, so I'll just list a few at random:
Mega Man, Sonic, Kirby, Metal Slug, DooM, Raiden, House of The Dead, Power Stone, Mortal Kombat, Street Fighter, Marvel vs Capcom.

There's a whole lot more, but those are some of the more notable ones in my opinion.

I don't usually keep favorite games these days. I've grown a little apathetic towards that, for some reason. Maybe I should try genres/series I haven't dared to touch before. I am fond of the Genesis Sonic the Hedgehog games though, which is why I got the DS collection.

I really love Okami and Okamiden, hell Okami is my favorite game of all time. The Sonic series is damn good at points, but damn awful at others (until Okami, Sonic Adventure 2 was my favorite game of all time). Megaman is probably the best series over all that i like, however it isn't my favorite favorite. I absolutely love Kingdom hearts 1 and 2. Then theres Kirby, Pokemon, Star Wars Rouge Squadron, Tony Hawk Proskater/underground/american wasteland, Mario, Touhou, LoL, and other things i might be forgetting.

Zelda.

Mega Man follows close behind, Sonic and Kingdom Hearts are both somewhere in there too.
Title: Re: So I was wondering
Post by: LSDLucifer on June 27, 2013, 04:27:01 PM
I can't believe I forgot about one of the the game series that got me into gaming, and no I don't mean Mega Man because I think that goes for everyone here. I'm talking about one of the first series that made me just fall in love with gaming in general. That series my friends is Ultima.

My favorite game series is probably Kingdom Hearts. Closely followed up by Ace Attorney and Pokemon though.
