This list is always changing though whenever I play something new and really get into it. So these are my favorite games of all time currently. What are yours? Give reasons why. If I was to make this a top 15 list I'd have to find and play 2 more games and really like them to be considered a favorite of all time.
1.GTA San Andreas (This just never gets old.Funny how I got bored of gta online and gta 5 real fast even with the new content out for it, yet I can go back now and play a 12 year old gta game and never get tired of it despite the lack of multiplayer. Probably due to the fact that I had the game when it came out and someone gave me a "small loan" of money and I ended up buying everything I wanted at the start). 2.Battlestations Pacific (Great game except not many people I talked to know about it and I have over 300 hours of playtime on the game on steam). 3.Need For Speed Most Wanted 2005 (Still my favorite racing game of all time.That pursuit mode is addictive as crap and just so much fun.) 4.Grid 1 (Easily my 2nd favorite racing game of all time.The career mode is so in depth too and just seems to go on for forever). 5.Fallout New Vegas (I didn't like this game at first since I was an avid fallout 3 fan but after really sitting down and playing it I really got into it.) 6.Fire Emblem Awakening (It may not be the best game in the series or have the best story but I loved the ever loving crap out of this game. Its got Lucina though and thats good enough for me.) 7.Tales Of The Abyss (Loved this game when I first discovered it. Still one of my favorites and of course I based my username on the games main character.) 8.Persona 3 (Loved this game when I first played it. I always wanted to do a second playthrough of it.) 9.Persona 4 (Loved this one just as much as persona 3.) 10.Star Wars the force unleashed. (Had a lot of fun with this one.) 11.Fallout 2 (Despite this games age its still lots of fun to play and I'm glad it works on my computer even in 2016.) 12.Cherry Tree High Comedy Club (My favorite indie game. I haven't played a whole lot but this is my favorite one.) 13.The Last Of US. (Really wowed me the first time I played this. 2nd time maybe not as much since I knew what was going to happen.)

You should make a proper review of some of those games as you did with Grid, so we can add them to the community review thread.

That's a very random selection. My top 10...er, 13... favorite games list would be a lot more random than this, tbh. Do I get a medal?

10.Star Wars the force unleashed. (Had a lot of fun with this one.) Juno Eclipse is just the hawtest, eh...? Here's my (current) top 10. Started years ago but revised over the years. - Xenosaga Trilogy - It's here for nothing more than the amazing story. If I have to pick one it's Episode III. It's a gheyme that tells you your religion is actually wierd-as sci-fi alien stuff, how kewl is that??
- Mass Effect Trilogy - Arguably the most impressive gaming production ever conceived in terms of scale and ambition. Picking one, it's 3 again for the streamlined gameplay and addictive multiplayer that hooked me for months. Never had problem with the ending that everybody complains about.
- Star Control 2 - The original Mass Effect. This is where ME got its inspirational genesis. It's essentially ME but you're controlling ships in a 1 vs 1 top down space shooting duel out.
- Homeworld - More space stuff, but the best RTS I've ever played. The very first 3D one (X,Y+Z Axis) ever too.
- Wing Commander - Even more space stuff, but the first and most memorable space cockpit shooter I ever played.
- Metal Gear Solid Series - Wasn't on this list initially, plus it's not in space... but recently promoted after Phantom Pain, which completes the series (sort of) magnificently. Grandaddy of the stealth genre and still the best of them all. If I have to pick one (out of the 10 that make up the main story)... It's a Peace Walker or Twin Snakes toss-up. Big Boss is my hero so I guess I'm leaning Peace Walker...
- ICO - Not space either, but it's just so beuwtifel.
- KOTOR - Everyone likes Star Wars. This is the best Star Wars gheyme ever.
- Shadow of the Colossus - Not space either2, but if you like to save yer girlfriend, this is the game that allows you to do that in the most colossaly epic fashion possible.
- Jedi Knight (Dark Forces 2) - The second best Star Wers gheyme evah... and best First Person Shooter I've ever played bar none. Ironically because of it's lightsaber melee gameplay...
+ 3 Extra... (Is 13 a magical number or something?...)- Final Fantasy XIII-2 - VII made it famous, VIII made it pretty, and X was arguably the best overal-ly. But XIII-2... is just the perfect fantasy of a picture perfect couple in a world of everything vs just you & me!...
- Ninja Gaiden (Modern) - If you like melee slashers, this is where you will find the sharpest sword ever. EVER.
- Thunder Force Series (3-6) - Everyone has to have a favorite old skewl 2D shooter. Picking one, it's 4: If you like laser swords, this was the first game to attach one to a plane and make it a lightshow of friggin awesomeness.
P.S. If you want more replies, maybe you could change the title from 'My top 13 favorite games...' to something like 'List your top 13 favorite games...'?
Just a thought...

I'll put some of my favourite ones, in no particular order. Also, I'll just include some entire series instead of individual games:
Panzer Dragoon series Ninja Gaiden (modern series) Metal Gear series Mirror's Edge (haven't played the new one) Mega Man series Nights into Dreams (haven't played the Wii one) Bayonetta Ico Shadow of the Colossus Albert Odyssey: the legend of Eldean Sonic series Ys series
I think that covers a lot of my favourites, even if it's missing some other important ones (like the Tomb Raider series and God Hand).

Brother! We really are clones! (sort of...) See, I told you I played PC 15+ years ago... I was Master Race then too, but have since mended my ways...
Although, Mirror's edge and Nights have flown under my radar for the most part. But now I'm thinking I should check them out! The new Mirror's edge even has her looking like Lara Croft's friend Sam!I like Panzer Dragoon too (I'll post proof of that in a bit), but not quite enough to make it to my top 10 (or 13) list... Also loved Mega Man as a kid but since grew out of it... Never really cared for Sonic though... and Bayonetta... isn't she Happy Console Gamer's wife? ... (lol)
But what you really got me interested in is Albert Odyssey. Never heard of that before... I think I'll emulate it for a bit just to see what's it about now...

1. Super Mario World 2. Lament Of Innocence 3. Ocarina Of Time 4. Shadow Of The Colossus 5. Gradius V 6. KOF XIII 7. Mega Man X 8. Marvel Vs. Capcom 2 [Arcade] 9. F-Zero GX 10.

All-Stars that's smart, LOL! I updated mine and added 10. Of course the rule should be to only choose one game of each franchise considering sometimes we will like more than one game of our favorite franchises, but All-Stars is fair game, haha.

leaon79s - Just to elaborate on Albert Odyssey: it's a pretty standard jRPG. A very usual battle system, a small roster of characters (you can't even switch characters), very pretty but "standard" 2d pixel-art graphics... It's not even close to be on the same league as something like Chrono Trigger or FF6. ... And yet I love it. For a very personnal reason, it was my first jRPG - I had never played any game with turn-based battles and random encounters. So, consequently, it was also the first time I played something entirely focused on the story; no game before it had so much text and characters. The closest to it was either Startropics or Zelda 2, and those are largely action games and don't have as much story. For a slightly more objective reason, for all its simplicity the game has a lot of soul: the story never tries to be as huge and serious as a Final Fantasy, so, instead, it's always light-hearted and charming. The small roster of characters (only six playable characters through the entire game) means that every one of them has a well-defined arc and you just feel close to them when the story ends. Instead of trying 3d graphics during a time in which they just couldn't be all that great, the graphics are an obvious evolution of the 16-bit days, so it has some of the very best pixel-art you can find in a jRPG. The music is among the best I've ever heard in any game - it's Sunsoft at its best, and the beautiful orchestral soundtrack was composed by the same guy from Journey to Silius / Batman (NES) / Blaster Master, who now had access to cd technology. Also, the story is very, very long for the time: the game has two chapters, and each one of them feels like a full RPG game. You should try it, but really keep in mind I don't think it's one of the best games ever made (best soundtrack yes, sure!): I just feel it's still one of my favourites.

Gradius V You can't beat me in your own 5th favorite game of all time?!?... It is embarrassing but I love that game so much I can't deny my love for it. I bought it 3 times already, twice originally on the PS2 to have an extra copy, once on the PS3, and if it comes on the PS4 I probably would buy it again. I will keep on trying beating your score though. This can't be left like that.
