No games have really changed my life, not even in a gaming fashion. Although all new games now don't have that old 'WOW' factor that i had when playing the systems like N64, PS2. (Goldeneye, Mario64) (GTA3)

Same , no games have really 'Changed my life' , although Ocarina Of Time has really set the benchmark for me now when playing a game , and although not many games can come close imo , i still see it as the top game in that genre , or any genre for that matter :)
I don't really think that a single game had changed my life or anything, but I can certainly say that the game Jedi Academy was what brought me into online gaming which I'm really into nowdays.
Nothing really for the Xbox 360 (yet). But I remember playing the first Ninja Gaiden, it made me realize that I'm not the master of all games and everything takes a little practice. That and the first Halo (of course) only cause it was the reason I got an Xbox.
Halo 2...i can never go back to playing games non-competitively offline :(, with the exception of oblivion, bioshock, and viva pinata lol but im now addicted to online because of that game.
GTA vice city mfor introducing me to 3-d lol halo 3 for the intro to online and oblivion for that first look around outside the sewers damn i wish i could relive that over and over
video games dont have to change your life, they just change your life on video games, the games i picked were ones that i enjoyed and always will, the question is really what video games changed youraspecton gaming itself

you didnt need to comment then really, i think its just meant to be a question to think back to good games. taking it a bit to literal
A game that changed my life have to be the original Mario for the NES, :twisted: its what got me into gaming and I haven't stopped yet. Other then that id have to say Suikoden 2 for getting me into JRPGs and Call of Duty 2 for getting me into online FPS.
Vice City and Halo 2 changed my attitude towards what a game could be like. I actually took time off from work to play Vice City & spent a week playing it straight. I've spent years playing Halo 2 multi-player. I'm kind of surprised they didn't produce a map subscription for Halo 2 as I believe they could've made a few million with each new map pack release. On the PC it was Fallout, Planescape:Torment, and Doom/Quake/Duke Nukem.
The Super Mario games on the NES turned me into a gamer, Civilization turned me into a PC gamer, and Doom/Half Life turned me into a FPS gamer.
The XBOX had the best combination and FPS and sports games so I was turned from a PC gamer back into a console gamer. I still haven't gone back to being a PC gamer.
The original Super Mario Bros. because it was the first game I ever owned and it was the game that made me become a gamer. Also, probably Halo 2 because it made it impossible for me to really enjoy games that aren't online.
Duke Nukem 3D! Taught me at 3-year old age that there was more to life than kicking around a cheap half deflated football, and that was MONEY, GUNS, GORE AND GIRLS! :D
Super Mario Bros 3, Ice Climbers, Excite Bike, The Legend Of Zelda, Contra 3, Island (NES), Contra 3, Blackthorn, Chrono Trigger, FF4, FF6 and the last one Chrono Trigger.
If I had to choose from one on theses games then I would say Chrono Trigger as changed my life. What a good game and the story is so good... Oh shi- now I want to play it.
One game that really changed my life was doom.It was my first multiplayer experience.We build an internal network so i could play against my brotherinlaw.It was one of the first 3d games and it had multiplayer options. playing games had never been the same after doom
Hmm, i wouldn't say any game has ever changed my life but inspired me to think and see things in a different way. MGS 2, that gave me a new insite into the US government and such. Silent Hill really changed what I expect from horror games in general, I began expecting true fear instead of pop shock horror. Overall I'd say half life was the biggest inspiration though, it showed me what a truly well thought through FPS could be like. Past that, Final Fantasy 7. I bought my playstation just for that game.
Oh wait, Everquest. The original, I almost failed 8th grade because of my freakish addiction to that game and i had a friend that dropped out of high school just so he could stay home and play all day. That game changed my life, had a profound impact on my social life. The next year I started home school and gave up public school just so i could stay home and play. My friend that dropped out moved up state and I never heard from him again and so for the next year and a half all i did was play EQ.
Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time. Tales of Phantasia. Chrono Trigger. Grandia 2. Super Mario 64. Final Fantasy 3/6. Skies of Arcadia. Baten Kaitos. Eternal Sonata. Lost Odyssey.
I'd say 007 Goldeneye for N64 changed my life in the sense that I got a good feel for 1st person shooters...which are now allover the place and poorly constructed.
Final Fantasy 7 changed my gaming life forever. i was just stumbling across games back then playing them at random much like i stumbled across ff7. Acutally when i first played it i didnt get past the first fight scene and put it away for months lol which is stupid of me looking back. then one summer i picked it up and decided to pass it over the summer. After that my game playing was more focused on RPG and strategy games.
hmmm.... i dont know if a game has "changed my life" but i've played a large variety of games over the years. and GTA III and San Andreas really got me hooked the most. I feel I am more "IN" the game when i play GTA SA and I tend to just mess around with gambling, flying, skydiving, and driving around. It's like multiple games in 1. but it hasnt changed my life really. I find games as just a way to escape reality and relax.
books may be deeper, but they are NOT interactive. your imagination may vary, but the words are printed in ink and do not change.
Games can be deep!!! Play Half-Life... I think I'm obsessed with the Orange Box. That game had a storyline that creamed all three Halos combined. I'm now actually considering going into videogame programming because I think I could contribute to great games like that... yeah, I'm probably obsessed... I just finished so give me a week to calm down. But I'm serious about programming.
