What's the game that changed your life forever ?

GTA, without it I might of actually tried to do some of those things.

Xenogears

I would probably say Counter-Strike. Although I don't play it much anymore it's the game that got me into seroius pc gaming to start and drove me to build my very first home built computer.

I would say Counter-Strike but honestly I think Call of Duty 4 and Battlefield 2 really changed my gaming world. They were one of the most fun I had with an online multi-player game. After that, I was more focused on FPS games. All the Call of Duty games after 4 were complete crap.

Super Street Fighter 2 (SNES). I put hours and hours into it when I was a kid. Nowadays, I can barely stomach a fighting game. :P

Probably Final Fantasy 7 for introducing me to that Genre.

Resident Evil for showing me games can be scary.

Baldurs Gate 2 and others in that specific D&D Genre for introducing me to my favourite genre.

As it goes for big life impacts probably WOW for getting me friends and being social in a Networking way which is something i hadnt done before to that extent.

I change my O.T I'd say Doom, doom is the game that got me into gaming.Fightingfan

Ocarina of Time. This game really raised the bar and my standards. It left an impression unlike any other game I have ever played.

Other noteworthy games are SimCity 2000 & Sid Meiers' Alpha Centauri.

Rayman or Duke 3d. those where my first games ever

problably Halflife

opened me up to the world of online gaming, complete with my 36.6k modem :P

Super Street Fighter 2 (SNES). I put hours and hours into it when I was a kid. Nowadays, I can barely stomach a fighting game. :P

LOL same here. I remember playing that game for hours and hours with friends, figuring out the best ways to beat their moves and playstyles, screaming at the controller when I know a move I did didn't register :P

I personally spent more time with Street Fighter 2 than Super Street Fighter 2 though -- using mostly Ken and Guile and taking advantage Guile's cheapness (slow sonic boom + throw) of course. Man, those were the days!!! Honestly, other than the Battlefield series I don't think I ever played or enjoyed local or online multiplayer any more than that.

I don't know, a game that changed my life forever sounds just a tad dramatic but I'll mention No One Lives Forever. That was probably the [awesome] game that got me hooked on first person shooters and I haven't looked back since -- love the immersion of the viewpoint and the feeling of exploring your environment. I had played Wolfenstein 3D, Doom, etc before, but the genre just didn't "click" for me at the time. NOLF influenced me to finally get around to playing Half-Life which I loved as well.

one image says it all

my first game and argueably the best of the list

Ha, I had a 14.4 and my buddy had a 28. I was jealous of him. :o

Probably half life. It was the first shooter I remember playing and probably one of the first violent games I remember playing. But also, it was the most memorable.

Ocarina of Time. This game really raised the bar and my standards. It left an impression unlike any other game I have ever played.

This ^^^

One of my first games. After that I was hooked for life!

Bioshock. Bioshock really opened up a new realm to me. It wasn't just a game; I learned a lot from playing it and got into some fancy literature and such.

I would probably say Counter-Strike. Although I don't play it much anymore it's the game that got me into seroius pc gaming to start and drove me to build my very first home built computer.
