just as the title says, what's everybody's favourite single player game? i would say just for 360 but i woldn't be so mean. i ask partly because i'm looking to buy a new game, and partly because i was just thinking really. i think mine it recent memory would be arkham asylum. amazing game!

Oh damn I'm going to have to say Halo. Though specifically I mean the first one so it doesn't really help in the search for a new game.

For 360 itself I'll go with Mass Effect (though I'm hoping that'll be left in the dust as soon as Dragon Age: Origins comes out).

In my opinion, Shadow of the Colossus has the best single player campaigns of all time. However, if we're talking next-gen titles, then my votes go to Batman: Arkham Asylum and GTA IV.

Morrowind.

Mass Effect.

Planescape Torment
Deus Ex
SystemShock 2
Baldur's Gate series
Morrowind

All fantastic single player games.

Good luck finding most of them in stores though.

Deus Ex or KOTOR. I replay each one several times a year.

CoD:4 has a pretty intense campaign. Full of interesting characters, explosions, events.

Best campaign goes to Warcraft 3: TfT imo

Best SP game with a story is till GTA: Vice City imo.

Fire Emblem: Path of Radiance and its sequel, Radiant Dawn. I've never been so good at strategy games as I am with those. Plus, the story is pretty damn good :D

my vote would have to go to anachronox, good jokes, decent battles, interesting story. It may not be new, but it's a gem.

Baldur's Gate 1 and 2 (with both their expansions) on PC. NOT Console Baldur's Gate games.

Lemmings :D and portal are my favourites

i'm disappointed that i haven't played shadow... i don't have a ps2 anymore due to unforseen breakages so i missed out on it.

is the campaign in halo 3 any good cos i heard it's a bit of a letdown on the whole.

Armored Prayer:

Very, VERY BIG explosions.

I'd have to say the campaign for MGS3 would be my favorite, I mean god damn that's a fun game, and the soundtrack's groovy as hell

Bioshock and Final Fantasy X, Metroid Prime also (Not many games get get away with having zero dialogue and still be awesome).

Torment was a really good single player game.

I probably wouldn't get it if you're after story, after the first game it can get a bit convoluted, but the actual gameplay is completely solid and incredibly fun. Especially if you like playing co-op.

i do like playing co-op, only recently played through gears 2 with my girlfriend's brother and i do find it fun to go through stories with someone else so i'll put that in the maybe pile so to speak.

Bioshock although quite short. Oblivion and Fallout 3 were amazing they were long and had a lot to do even after completion

Bioshock has to be my favorite storyline so far, purely because of the fact that it can really drag me in.

Naturalized:
Final Fantasy. All of them (besides 7 that is)

Why besides 7?

And thats just asking for a flame war btw.

mass effect
chrono trigger
final fantasy, 4, 7, 8 10
RE4 RE5
fallout 3
fale 2
uncharted
infamous
zone of ender the second runner
MGS 2,3,4
Batman A,A
onimusha dawn or dreams
kingdom hearts 1 and 2
dead space

there some more but those are the ones that come to mind for me anyway

System Shock 2. I love that game so much, when I'd finished it I got that same feeling I get when I finish a great book. It was over, and I wouldn't be going back. For a while...

Also, ICO. I know it's virtually plotless, but it was such a wonderful world to be in.

Mass Effect - the level of immersion is ridiculous, you grow attached to the characters and care for them, the game pulls you in and doesn't let go, not to mention the gameplay itself keeps you on your toes all the time, you never know, what's going to happen next.

GTA IV - pretty much the same thing, except you get annoying calls from your cousin.

Call of Duty 4 - never let's up, constant action and variety of missions. You sympathize with the characters and want to see what happens next. Too bad it's pretty short.

Uncharted:Drake's Fortune
Bully
Mass Effect
Zone of the Enders
All of the MGS games.

Well in that case I highly recommend it. I'm a sucker for co-op and it really doesnt get any better than the Halo games.

Because I just didn't like it. All the people that worship 7 can go to hell it wasn't a hallowed piece of holy plastic it was a step into unknown territory for FF.
Something about it just wasn't right. I was bored after 5 hours whereas in all of them except the first one, I needed to have done absolutely everything to get bored (still haven't got that 100% on X-2, haven't the time to look for dresspheres)

OK fair enough. I liked all of the final fantasy games so far. I've only played up to 10 though I didn't play X-2 because I heard from a friend it was crap and I never played 11 because I think it was online. The ones i've played are great though. 7 Will always be my favourate one though because it's the one that got me into the franchise

Psychonauts, I love double fine productions

Ico.

Shadow of the Colossus.

Two amazing must-get adventures for the PS2.
