Kbin: What is your all time favourite video game?
Whether you started with a 2600 and a joystick in your hand, an N64 with a blistered palm or building your first PC in your teens, what is that one video game you've played at some point that to this day sits at the top of your list.

Interesting. No love for city builders and strategy games (RTS and TBS). Here are several, in no particular order:
- SimCity (4th is probably my favorite). Cities Skylines is the modern spiritual successor.
- Civilization series (arguably all versions were excellent for their own time)
- Starcraft (both are great)
- W40K Gladius (underappreciated gem)
- Kohan (nobody knows about that game. Kohan 2 was OK)
- Age of Wonders (3 and 4)
- Warhammer® 40,000: Dawn of War (the first one)
- Warlock - Master of the Arcane (honestly, I had more fun with that than with AoW)
- Majesty (the first one, very unique, "indirect" strategy)
The list can go on, and there were so many fantastic strategy games over the years...
The music from Sim City (SNES) is on a perpetual loop in my brain and always will.
Edit: Also for your list - The Impressions Games 'City Builder' series (Caesar 1-3, Pharaoh + Cleopatra. Zeus + Poseidon, and Emperor: Rise of the Middle Kingdom).
Yes, those were great!
My favs are Empire Earth (it was a shock having so many ages after playing AoE (2) and Knights and Merchants. This one was my first RTS and it is SO unique, I absolutely love it and have found nothing quite similar to it. There still is an active mod and multi-player community, albeit a small one
I still play it since it has coop campaign which AoE4 sadly still hasn't. So many "lost" hours with the expansion back then...
