Metal Gear Solid - PlayStation
FAVORITE ACTION GAME
I first played Metal Gear Solid in a demo that came with a pizza from Pizza Hut...I hated it. Then, for some reason, I kept playing and realized that hiding from the enemies instead of killing everyone and everything in sight was actually pretty fun...Then I got hooked by how the demo ended with the DARPA Chief dying. I needed to know what happened next....So, I purchased the game, and I fell in love with what is probably my favorite game that I've ever played.

Super Metroid (Super NES)
Grand Theft Auto III (Playstation 2)

Silent Hill - PlayStation
FAVORITE ADVENTURE GAME
While I'm pretty fearless and hard to startle now, back when I was a young'un, things were a different story. I bought Silent Hill from a ShopKo clearance rack for $10...And then I didn't play it for a year because I didn't want to be frightened (yeah, yeah, laugh it up). Once I finally began to play, however, I got sucked in and absolutely fell in love with how morbid everything was...And it wasn't like Resident Evil where scares were from dogs jumping through windows...Silent Hill really messed with your mind...And that is why I still enjoy playing it to this day.
Runner-ups:
Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time (Nintendo 64)

Like the title says, this is an unofficial list, meaning it has nothing to do with my ol' website, it's just something I'm doing out of boredom. Basically, I'm doing a list similar to 'Year End Awards' you'll find in various magazines and websites...Except it's based solely on my preferences and it's for all games that I've ever played. I may change things up on the list every now and then as I play more games...But I doubt changes will occur too often once she's done.
I plan on adding a variety of categories in the near future, as well as some pictures...either boxart or screenshots (or both) for the games as well as 'runner-ups' whom I think deserve recognition.
ALSO, please note that just because I prefer one game over another, like Silent Hill over Ocarina of Time, it doesn't mean that I think that it's a better game overall...It just means that I just personally enjoy it a little more even if the game may be inferior overall.
For now, it's a work in progress.
* I'm too lazy to look and see if there are 'official' listings for handheld console generations, so I made up my own in my head for now. The first generation is the game and watches and all that fun stuff, second generation being the game boy era (which includes the game boy color), and so on.
