Hands down, what' s your favorite videogame series?

Oh, it' s so hard for me to choose. But if I had to choose one, there' s nothing that gets my blood boiling like a good ol' game of King of Fighters. It easily has some of my fav characters in videogmes ever. And I love the storylines. But poor SNK. Too bad thou couldn' t stay a float longer. It was a mighty toss up between KOF or Panzer Dragoon, but my love for PD mainly comes from my love from Panzer Dragoon Saga while my love for KOF comes multiple points in the series. I' m still hoping to pick up 2000/2001 for my Dreamcast. And would buy 2002 if it wouldn' t cost a few hundred bucks. . . .

Heh...easiest question I' ve ever answered.

FINAL FANTASY!!!

Sonic

Very difficult question in my opinion.

So many good games that had sequels down the line that disappointed me.

Define series? Does there have to more than one sequel in order to call it a series?

Certainly in my younger gaming years the best series (and still an excellent one today) would be the Sonic games. I loved 2 and 3 the most, but they all rocked. The newer " Adventure" games were great, but not as good as the original 2d versions.

I loved Resident Evil 2 and Code Veronica on DC, but the others in the series have been disappointing IMO (yes, including the first one on PSX and Gamecube)

Zelda: Links Awakining (SP?) and Ocarina of Time were excellent, but they are the only games I have played in the Zelda series. Don' t know about the others, but cant wait for The Wind Waker.

Ultimately I always think series of games get too similar to one another, therefore, disappointing me at some point. Perhaps the first 2 are great but the next one is not different enough to refresh me. I can' t answer this question if I am totally honest. At least not from what I can think of just now.

Bushido Blade and DOOM and soon to be Halo.

I would have to say Sonic, although the recent Adventure games have been underwhelming.

Shenmue has proved a nice consistent series, but only two games and I don' t really like games where you have to have extended sittings.

I quite enjoy the Virtual On games, but still haven' t played Force. But they can get boring after a while.

I quite enjoy Mario now, but was a bit anti-Nintendo back in my youth, so I haven' t played many of the games - something I intend to fix.

But so far, I still think Sonic is the best so far.

My favorites are BONX,SONIC,SHENMUE 1 +2, MORTAL KOMBAT, AND ALTERED BEAST

It' s absolutely impossible for me to choose one series or franchise...Anything Mario or Zelda warrants a purchase in my book. Ive loved both franchises since I was a toddler. Sonic was also a big hit in my early days. Doom was one of my first video games ever, I loved it, and still do. Mortal Kombat, Street Fighters and Final Fantasy deserve to be mentionned as well. So all around, there are tons of series and franchises Ive come to love throughout the years.

Id also like to say I think Halo will become one of the most popular video game franchises of the new millenium real quick. The original is already among the best products ever developed, now it' s up to Bungie to deliver something even better. I can' t wait to see what happens with Halo 2!

My most recent favoriot is Shenmue, there is just something about this game that amazes me every time I pop it in my video game system.

Then the Sonic games, I love sonic as you could tell me all my previous signatures, oh and you can tell I love shenmue from my current sig.

Shenmue

FINAL FANTASY

all the way baby

Based upon time spent playing (if I play it that much I must like it) it has to the Age of Empires series of games.

Without doubt my favourite game of all time is Thunderforce 4 on the Megadrive. This pushed the system harder than any other title and perfected the genre. Truly a massive moment in my gaming history.

God the megadrive was a cool console heh
I remember Tojam and Earl now that was a
cool game.

And alos a big-up for Baldur' s Gate.
I don' t think I ever spent more time with a gameseries then with BG.
BG2 is just the best game ever and I think I now spent over 250 hours with it.

Ummmm lets see...of the classic KOF series, Fatal Fury, Final Fantasy, Powerstone, Legend of zelda/Link adventures, Tekken, Time crisis and Super Bomberman.

Phantasy Star Online, no doubt in my mind. The first time I played on ther DC it was like visiting Disney Land for the first time, pure magic. The online community, the soundtrack, the atmosphere, everything oozes quality. Best series eva!

Webmasters Web Workshop Forums

Police Quest and Operation Flashpoint..

Despite having played many many games over the years... There is only one game I can put here - those who played it when it launched back in the 90' s have probably spent years of their lives in this universe
- the desire to CONQUER
- the ability to have a kick ass army to COMMAND...

yes Command & Conquer - still playing C&C Generals

have a good time...
... all the time

Shenmue

Is that before " Gay Days" or after? Better make sure you dont wear red.

O' rielly had a nice segment on his show...the filth...the public sex...if thats what you call that sort of thing.

Either way I will never visit that place again..nor would I take my kids..if I had any. Kinda like PSO....disgusted with the pay-per-play..never gonna visit it again..disgusted.. so many similarities.

*looks over first post*

WTF?! How sleepy was I to place King of Fighters above Sonic the Hedgehog!?!

Sonic and Tails all the way baby.

IMO opinion Konami' s Pro Evo Soccer series is the best series ever! No matter what games I buy I always need a good football game to fall back on when i get bored and Pro Evo is by far the best series of football games ever created

Shenmue. Hands down.

Shenmue, Resident Evil, Metal Gear Solid and Silent Hill.

The best series is without a doubt Shenmue. I' m not sure which of the games in the series (yes all 2 of them) is better.

Soon to be Halo. If you count expansion packs at the moment it is Half-Life/Counter-Strike. If not it is a tie between Sonic and the Legacy of Kain games.

Sonic, Shenmue, soon Halo, NFL and NBA 2k(ESPN sports now), DOA, Legacy of Kain, and... yeah, that' s all I can think of right now. Sonic probably is my favorite overall. Can' t wait for Sonic heroes!!!

1.every capcom VS. game made and other VS titles such as marvel super heroes vs street fighter. Also street fighter 3 and alpha 3
2.King of fighters plus other snk games like samurai showdown 5
3. Shenmue
4. of course MEga Man.

Halo.
I' ve been sampling FPS' s since the original Doom, and this is the first one i ever finished. I usually get bored a few stages in, if my interest carries me that far. (Half life is a close second in the category, but imho halo has the better story)

Capcom 2d fighters
I almost didn' t graduate high school because of poor attendance. I never did drugs or anything typically rebelious, i just cut school almost everyday to play streetfighterII at the arcade up the street from the school. Since then every new release has been a life milestone.

Elder Scrolls Series
I' ve only played Morrowind, but i am hooked completely. I' ve actually had dreams about how cool Oblivion will be.
