Your Favorite Video Game
Hey, this is a thread where you reply with your favorite video game (or video games if you can't agree on one). Post what it's called, what you do, and why you like it! Preferably stick to computer games because not everyone has an Xbox One or a PS4, but everyone who does Scratch has a computer. I'll start out with my 3 favorite games which are: Super Amazing Wagon Adventure (2.99 on Steam but there is a free demo), Starbound (15$ on Steam), and Build and Shoot (Free). All of these are for the computer (I think SAWA is on Xbox, but it is on the computer as well).
Super Amazing Wagon Adventure Turbo
This is the “100% historically accurate” story of the Oregon Trail. It's a scrolling shooter game were you play as a party of 3 trying to get to Oregon. Also, everything that happens is randomly generated so the game is different every time you play. And trust me, as soon as you play, you will find that the game is even better than the title makes it out to be! This game is 2.99 on Steam, but it has a free demo which is also fun.
Starbound
Ever played Minecraft or Terraria? Starbound is very similar to both of these, but, in my opinion, is way better. It is 2D and made by Chucklefish (which is made up of a lot of the staff that made Terraria). Basically it's a survival game where you crash land your ship on a procedurally generated island. There are hundreds of biomes, an infinite amount of planets, and different enemies for everyone of these planets. It's Terraria in space with a thousand (litteraly) times as much content. This game is 100% worth the 15 dollars on Steam. Note: it is still in Beta and has a lot of bugs, but the developers are hard at work fixing them and posting new content daily.
Build and Shoot
Ever played Team Fortress 2? Ever played Minecraft? Imagine if they were mixed together! Build and Shoot is my all time favorite game that has ever been created in the history of the Earth. It's online with 32 players and is set in a World War One type setting (rifles, trenches, slow combat). All of the maps (which are customization meaning you can make your own maps!) can be completely destroyed and you can also build on them. This means that you can dig a trench to protect from the enemy, build a bunker to help your team of 16 people, or build an awesome mansion just ‘cause. This game is completely free, no charge at all, and it’s slogan is, “it can run on a toaster” (you don't need a good computer). NOTE: This game is online with people all over the world and a lot of them are really mean. There is a chat system that can not be disabled or hidden. The chat system has no form of filtering so people can and will say a lot of bad words on it, so play with caution and maturity.
Anyways, these are my favorite games! I'd love to here your's as well so I can play them, so please reply.

6.Half-Life 2
Great game, just play it.
5.

It's spelled differently depending on where you live. It's most likely you live in the USA/Canada because you used “favorite”. I'm from Australia, so I use “favourite”. So do people in the UK. It's a “color/colour” situation.yea, its favorite My top two answers:

Here's my list of my three favorite video games:
Starbound:
TOTALLY WORTH $15! Starbound allows you to explore the universe, create pretty nice bases, and even start a village! I have found myself playing Starbound for over 20 hours already, I just bought it on 9/10/2015.
Cave Story:
I just love this game, not just because of the story, but because of everything else about it. Whenever I feel like doing a challenge, I go and play this game now. I'm still stuck on Monster X, but I'll eventually spam the blade fast enough. If you get this game from cavestory.org, you have the original game(2004), and pretty much if you don't speak Japanese, you'll need the English translation.
Portal 2:
A good game that allows plenty of puzzles. Because of the Steam workshop, there are even more tests, and Portal 2's story line is very funny. My favorite character in this game is Wheatly, of course, NOT BECAUSE HE IS CUTE!

Recently it's been Splatoon and Super Mario Maker (tied), but I've always really loved Kirby Super Star.
I also have a special place in my heart for Freedom Planet and Sonic Generations.

I love Kirby Super Star! I only have Kirby Super Star Ultra on Nintendo DS, but I've heard it's pretty much the same thing with a few new minigames and better graphics. Recently it's been Splatoon and Super Mario Maker (tied), but I've always really loved Kirby Super Star.

Here's a list of my favorites
Minecraft: yes, it's a common opinion, but it doesn't make it less valid. A friend introduced me to it ages ago (it's definitely been a few years) and it's been one of my favorite game ever since. I have many memories from when I first started: not knowing how to build and place things, discovering all the mobs in creative mode, beating the enderdragon (in creative mode) and obsessing with Herobrine. It's got a huge place in my heart and I love it a lot.
Mario Kart (for the DS): Like minecraft, this one has a huge place in my heart. We used to play it all the time in Junior school when the teachers would let us have the last day before a holiday as a completely free day where we could just play games. I remember sitting there and trying to win as 7 players who were much better than me dominated the tracks. Memories aside, It's a great game to play alone or with friends.
The Sims 4: The Sims series generally quite fun, especially with ridiculous mods and glitches, The Sims 4 is no exception. Your sims seem much more alive with the new emotions and graphics; it's like making a real person. Those of you who enjoy murdering sims in weird ways will enjoy the new ways sims can die in this game. Of course, there are no toddlers in this version of the sims, but that never bothered me.
Spore: Who doesn't like evolving and building a species to the peak of civilization? OK, probably a lot of people, but I'm not one of them. Spore is a game that I personally enjoy throughout the four stages unlike most people. The first two stages, cell and creature, are quite enjoyable and fast-paced as you hunt for food and evolve your creature. The next two stages, tribal and civilization, are for the more strategic and logical player as they require you to make smart decisions to thrive. The final stage, space, is vast and long- I've never completed it. The space stage makes up for the short-ness of the other four but is a very different stage when compared to the other two.
