We all have favorite video games of our own. But what if you were asked to live with only one video-game- what would that game be?

It could be some single player open-world game that is a new experience every-time you play. Or maybe some multiplayer game where you can keep playing with your friends. In other words, one game that you can keep playing and enjoying forever.

As for me, it's probably gonna be...

hmm that's a tough one...

Ow well, Minecraft, for now. :)

Super Smash Bros. Melee. If I had to be stranded on an island, I'd want it to be with my friends and, if I'm gonna be with my friends, I want a game that can be enjoyed at any time of day at any level of drunkenness.

Seriously. Drunken Smash Bros. is the game that university was made for.

One game? well I go with Disgaea 4 for now. If I'm gonna spend the rest of my life with one game let it be a game that constantly gets harder or easier and no matter what still stays fun.

Definitely must be something with high replayability. So even though I love RPG the most, I'd choose FIFA 12.

Ooh, what an unconventional choice.

RyanA possibly had the best idea yet.

But I would have to go with either Minecraft or Skyrim.

However, If I had internet connection, it would change from those two to either Dragon Quest Monsters Joker 2 or Champions Online.

Trust me, those games each can keep any one person busy for countless hours.

Postal 2. Probably an odd choice (especially for me), but it's a game I know for sure I can come back to whenever and just have pure unadulterated fun.

Or there's always Doom.

Pokemon. d:o

it's hard to choose which version. honestly it might be emerald, which seems like an odd choice—but even though i think that the first, second and fifth gens had better designs than the third, i really like the region and the world.

^ That.

He robbed the words out of my mouth, down to even the gen choice.

But if not for Emerald, I think I would choose Gen V. Black and White added in some of the best pokemon designs in the whole series, and my favorite starter also came from Gen V, so that's a pretty much obvious choice :3

I'd be hard pressed to choose.

In one way I think I might choose none. No one video game would make me happy about having no others, and would just remind me of my lack of video games. I think I would be better off without any if I could only have one.

If I was forced to choose... Yeah, no, I can't.

Lux Pain. So many choices of things to do, places to go, cutscenes to unlock, etc. Then I would get bored and I'd be screwed.

It's a tough call. I'm playing Dragon Warrior VII right now and I feel like it's certainly long enough to last me QUITE a while. But I think I'd get sick of playing an RPG every day. Harvest Moon would be a good call but after I've played through it enough to marry all the women, I'd resent choosing it. I think some sort of puzzle game would be a good pick. Maybe Tetris or Puyo Puyo.

If I could pick multiplayer games and had people to play with, I think Super Street Fighter IV would be a good pick. I've already sunk over 50 hours into that and I'm still have it far from mastered. And of course, any MMORPG would be good as a time killer.

But I think the best choice would be a music game, like a DDR arcade cabinet - I think SuperNova 2 would give me the best song selection. I used to play DDR every day and it was a blast. Whatever the latest version of Beatmania IIDX is would be a great pick too; if it was my only game, I'd actually practice enough to be good.

So for my final answer, I guess I'd go with Beatmania IIDX.

IT BURNS!!! ONE game for the rest of my life! Well... probably not an RPG. I love RPGs, but after I finish an RPG, I rarely go back to it. Same with any game really. I usually just move on to the next new game. Maybe Super Smash Bros. Brawl. I can play that for hours and never get bored of it. And it has plenty of stuff for me to unlock. I can't wait until the new Super Smash Bros. game comes out, though (Please let them add Megaman, please let them add Megaman, or Sora from Kingdom Hearts, or Cloud, or Knuckles, ect, ect, ect!.). But seriously, ONE game for the rest of my LIFE! After a while, any game will get boring. And new games will constantly be coming out and improving. So, I will never really be able to choose just one game.

A game with endless replayability, hmm? I'd probably go with The Sim 3, lol.

Actually, I've changed my mind. I would probably take Magical Starsign over Lux-Pain; it's a fun fighting game with plenty of cheesy comedy that makes me lol, and you can try plenty different strategies with the placing of your characters and the equipment you equip.

If possible, i would go with RyanAs suggestion. At least if i would have access to a graphics program.

If i would have to just take one game though, i would take Civ4:BTS. High replayability and one game where i have poured a lot of time into (over 100 hours, since i bought the steam version 1,5 years ago), without depleting the fun i have with it.

Cartoonier cloud cover that better fits the art style, as well as (slightly) improved blending/fading... fading clouds when there are larger patterns is still somewhat abrupt for some reason.

Yay, now back in action Happy Christmas time, coming back!






Back in action to develop the indie game that has been long overdue... Final Fallacy. A game that keeps on giving! The development never ends as the developer thinks to be the smart cookie by coming back and beginning by saying... "Oh bother, this indie game has been long overdue..." How could one resist such?
