TES:O while I like what I am hearing about it. I don't do MMOs so i shan't play, it is a simple truth that I have insufficent time to game frequently so paying a monthly subscription to play for at most 24hrs/month.

[Psychosplodge]

Same.
Plus paying more than once for a game?

don't know if anyone has seen this yet, mod for Skyrim recreates Morrowind with skyrim engine

sounds awesome to me. I couldn't get in to Morrowind or Oblivion, but Skyrim tweaked the games just enough that I love it, re-doing the old games with new engine would be brilliant.

Because we don't have enough Skyrim Mod discussion:

I present to you Morrowrim? Skywind? Smorroim

Skywind is a remake of Morrowind in the Skyrim game. It is a large mod that really plays like an entirely new game. As such it is a very large download at about 3.5GB. It has several plugins (a master file and patch) and all the graphics and sounds to make up the world of Morrowind. Skywind is in an Alpha state, meaning you can move around the world, interact with a few things, but the full content of questing, gameplay and many other various elements are not part of the game yet.

There was an awesome mod that integrated the powers from Dishonored into Skyrim.

Finished Assassins Creed IV, so impressed with it. I also enjoyed the out-of-character hacking mini-games in the 'real world' and one of them was actually an excellent commentary on gender roles, where you had the male chap exploring the memories of his female ancestor Aveline (from AC:Liberation/Feminist Facestab). Not sure if it was intentional or not but it was very amusing/interesting. Sadly the way the story is framed rather rules out another game with Edward Kenway is protagonist, though they could ignore that easily enough.

So after a brief post of the fallout 4 thread I was wondering what you guys would consider to be your top 5 games ever. Obviously I expect some geek snobbery with someone choosing some obscure game no one else has heard of, but try to be honest. Which top 5 games have you enjoyed the most.

Here are mine

5. Zelda, Ocarina of time.
4. Final Fantasy 7
3. Fable 2
2. Fallout New Vegas
1. World of Warcraft.

Just outside would be X-Com enemy unknown.

[energongoodie]

Speedball 2 (Amiga)
Mario Kart (SNES)
Wings (Amiga)
Street Fighter 2 Championship Edition (SNES)
Medal of Honour (Playstation)

Not in any order that's just my gut reaction.

1. Link to the Past
2. Link Between Worlds
3. Ocarina of Time
4. Valkyria Chronicles
5. Fire Emblem Awakening

close contenders, Skyward Sword, Red Dead Redemption, any Mass Effect, Time Splitters 2 or 3, Killzone 2 or 3, Spec Ops, Max Payne 3, Red Alert, Company of Heroes, Farcry 3, Last of Us, Uncharted 1,2, or 3... I like a lot of games...

Oh crap, I forgot the Mass Effect games. I would switch ME3 for FFVII I think. Epic story driven game which I enjoyed so very much. Never played a fem Shep though. Maybe next time.
