Are there games that you like now, but used to hate? Or vice versa?
For me, when I first got Morrowind I hated it, but after a little while it grew on me.
What game do you think you've spent the most time playing overall?
Personally, it would either have to be Pokemon Crystal or Morrowind. I'm not sure, but probably Morrowind. FFTA comes in at 3rd, I think. :p
All the favorite games I play or used to play are.
Halo, Halo2, Halo3, Halo ODST

I just like the game mechanic that the Pokemon series has. The collecting, battling, and evolving of creatures concept is one that has proven successful time and time again and not only with the Pokemon series. Numerous series have pulled this concept off wonderfully (Robopon, Digimon, Dragon Quest, Monster Rancher, Spectrobes, etc.). The Pokemon Stadium series was such a big hit because it allowed players to battle with their creatures in a 3D environment as opposed to the 2D Gameboy world and the mini-games also held their own. The Sonic Adventure games on Dreamcast drew me in beacuse it added a sort of RPG/Adventure feel to the classic Sonic series. I've been playing the Smash Bros. series since it debuted on the 64 and the series just seems to get better with every installment. Every new game blows the previous versions out the water. I acknowledged NBA 2K and Live simply because I enjoy basketball games on most systems. NBA Street series is up there because it gave a fresh new spin on traditional basketball games by being one of the first series to successfully incorporate street ball into mainstream gaming as well as give players the may not have been familiar to street ball players the familiarity of their favorite NBA teams. World of Warcraft is an awesome series in general the only downside is that monthly fee. I enjoy RPG games that allowed a sort of free roam experience with missions and the ability to choose classes and customize stats. I used to play on private servers when I had the game. I may invest in the official game sometime down the road, not too sure though. Fable was sort of a single player WoW for me allowing with the extra bonus of having a moral engine included that allowed my character to be treated as viewed, both figuratively and literally, as either good and evil based on my in game choices. I enjoy Need for Speed Carbon more than the other entries in the series because of its racing crew mechanic that allows you to bring partners with special abilities to aid you in the race (find shortcuts, turbo boost trough drafting, crash into opposing vehicles). The crew mechanic just made the whole game much more enjoyable than comparable racing games.

Legend of Dragoon
Final Fantasy VII

Resident Evil 5
Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time
Army of Two: 40th Day
Star Ocean

A lot of the games that I like is basically "Old School" games. But as far as I am concerned, games like FFVII and Legend of Dragoon are games of epic proportions. Other games like RE or God of War are games that appealed to my visceral side. They gave me that satisfying feeling of being able to eradicate any enemy infront of me without much resistance. Star Ocean, thats just a great RPG. It features a lot of things that are amazing. Selective battling, with suprise battles around every corner. Army of Two, lets just say I like the ability to make any gun that is already over the top, even more exasperative in the killing department. CoD: MW is great because it is one of the few games that showcase modern day fighting, even if it is fast paced and vigor filled.
LoZelda, thats just amazing game mechanics at work. The story was amazing, close to FFVII, and FFX. Definitely the greatest games ever made on this list.

I started playing the PC version of FFVII recently (I wasn't big into games when it first came out). So far, I haven't been blown away, but I could see how this would have been awesome a decade ago. I don't know if I'll finish it.
I actually haven't played most of the games on your list. My computer is shit, so I can't play most games made after 2003, or emulate anything past the GBA/N64. I played some of the Orcarina of Time, and I much preferred Majora's mask. I liked the story and the atmosphere much more.
Have you played GOW: Chains of Olympus on PSP? That's the only GOW I've played (I don't have a PS2 yet), and I really recommend it. The controls and graphics are amazing.

Final Fantasy VII was outstanding when it first came out. Amazing story, rewriting RPGs, historic story and all that stuff. Compared to games now, its not anything all that amazing. But once-upon-a-time it was the best game ever made, and still one of the biggest sellers world-wide...not now, but it was for PS1. I highly suggest finishing it and watch Advent Children, the only FF movie that was directly inspired by a game.
As for Majora's Mask, both were amazing games. I just preferred Ocarina of Time. Its just preference I guess.
Chains of Olympus was a great game, and a good prequel, and considering it was on the PSP and looked and handled like that was groundbreaking. And if you are gonna play the GoW games, buy the PS3 and get the game pack that has GoW 1 and 2, then buy 3 and get the whole experience, trust me, since you played the prequel first, you will have an outstanding experience.
