Hmm, my first thought was that maybe they were all MMO's...but um...nvm that idea. lol.

[B'rrr]

RPG's!

[crayauchtin]

Rob wins the prize.... which is he gets to marry Haids!!

To be more specific though, all of them except Starcraft are high fantasy RPGs!

[Rosella]

I was SO going to say high fantasy!

Darn it.

Anyway, my list is probably...

Dragon Age: Origins
Heavy Rain
Indigo Prophecy is making its way onto the list
Final Fantasy X
Final Fantasy VIII
Radiata Stories
Lost In Time
Return to Zork
Pokemon
Tales of Symphonia I recently completed and liked, but I'm not sure if it's a favorite for me, exactly.
Rock Band (come on, it's fun )
Kingdom Hearts (my first console video game ever)
Portal (My first, and not last, game to ever be completed solely by playing it at a friend's house )

Also, I've noticed that Portal seems to be on a lot of these lists.

That's 'cause it's awesome.

That's quite a prize, too!

I've only played Portal once, and I actually wasn't addicted to it.  It's one of those games I could take or leave.

[kindofdoon]

Portal is just one of those games I have to pick up and beat every year or so.

To date, I've beaten it 3 or 4 times.
