5: Rock Band + Guitar Hero (both series as a whole)
Fun, Addictive, Awesome, :D
Theres something so satisfying about playing games with music you love (and each of these guys has their share of em) but of course half the time theres songs that people don't like, but to me, that enhances the multiplayer experience by making it REALISTIC. I mean, in a REAL band of course people will be arguing over what song to play because of musical taste or difficulty. Also, with the introduction of the "pro" modes for guitar, drums, and keyboard (RB3) your skills actually translate onto ACTual instruments (im living proof for drums :D )
Just wait, soon enough these games will become powerful tools for musicians to learn and write material.... cant say if im for or against it though.... ^^;

4: Portal (Orange Box)
Ok, this is SO MUCH MORE than a puzzle game, its one of those experiences that sticks with you long after its over and keeps you coming back again.
True, its a short game, (roughly 2-3 hours) but if you ask me, thats one of the aspects that makes it so damn good. You don't have to spend days and days plugging away at it to get far, and you don't need hours and hours of practice to get good at it. The level design and pacing help anyone pick up on the mechanics VERY quickly and the guys at Valve did everything "Just Right" if you don't enjoy Portal then theres probably something wrong with you :p (I cant WAIT for the sequel next year!!! :D )

3: Team Fortress 2 (Orange Box)
Fun, addictive, and downright whimsical when peeps dont have their panties in a bunch
Whats really great in my opinion is how well the art style and the character design are so well-matched to the personalities of the different classes, i mean, seriously, I could easily watch a movie of just those characters interacting, yay chemistry! XD (of course there are TONS of hillarious and awesome parodies im sure most peeps that know the game have seen, ex: "Moments with Heavy", "YEAH TOAST", etc etc)

2: Metal Gear Solid 1-3 (havent played 4 :< )
By far, one of the greatest game franchises of all time if you ask me (HANDHELD GAMES DO NOT COUNT) but really, the edge-of-your-seat game play and stealth mechanics make these a great game for any sneaky strategist. Of course, the action and boss battles are just as great, each having a certain weakness you need to use your head to exploit. The scope of the story is HUGE but nonetheless EPIC, your classic tale of a reluctant hero in his struggle to accomplish the mission, met by insurmountable odds, betrayal, and sacrifice...
(i WISH i could play the 4th one XP XP XP)

1: Legend of Dragoon (PS1)
To me, this game will ALWAYS be a classic game in my eyes. The epic storyline, unique battle mechanics, and just how it takes you on a journey through the fantasy landscape with its atmospheric environments, interesting characters, and how it compels you to keep going, finding out what will happen next.
Of course, this game got a lot of bad rap as being a "FF7 clone" but it has NOTHING AT ALL in common, aside from the same PS1 graphics that outside of battle make the sprites look a bit chunky. The battle mechanics, of course being RPG-style targeting and menu clicking, add on a fun attack mechanic called Additions, which are physical moves unique to each character that have you mashing the X button in time with each hit until the move is complete, and adding more and more damage with each hit. And when your opponent blocks, you need to instead hit the O button just in time to counter. The moves can take a while to master but its SO satisfying to pull off the master Additions (upwards of 7 hits in one move!).
One AWESOME feature is that later on the first disk (yes its one of those games) your main character gets the ability to transform into a Dragon-Knight / Dragoon in battle... ok... yeah... its freaking kickass and you get to unleash crazy-powerful physical and magic attacks too, only downside is it only lasts a few turns (depending on your level) and your magic needs to be replenished, but its WELL worth it!
I can imagine you'd be kinda skeptic about it being a PS1 game, but hey, if you ask me it has a lot more substance then most HD-Graphic games today (sheesh, now i feel old ^^; )
Now, at 4 disks in length, you really find yourself investing a lot of time to playing, but in my opinion its time well spent on a game as good as this. Plus, THERES DRAGONS!! :D what more reason do you need??? ^.=.^

If you managed to read all that crap then yay! heres a cookie! :3
