Agreed. FF6 is probably Uematsu's best work. I would have a hard time deciding on my favorite game soundtrack ever; but it would be between this game and Mega Man 2.

Has anyone else noticed that the Opera Theme and Aerith's Theme have almost the exact same intro? I'm sure it's common knowledge that Nobuo recycles his melodies, but these two songs are almost note-for-note at the very beginning.

Just to set something straight, Myst doesn't give me a boner. I was saying that it fulfills the exploration aspect better then a hot chick gives me a boner.
aaaahhhh... i see... soooo myst doesnt give you a boner, but if "boner" means satisfaction, myst would be more likely to deliver... even over the delicious flesh of a woman... im totally joking! women are wonderful! its dangerous dragging them into a video game conversation... always!

Yes very dangerous. Be careful, someone might lose an eye.
I feel old when talking to anyone my age yet too inexperienced to effectively talk to anyone older. Life is grand that way.

Im going to start busting balls about just listing. Hope no one minds. I'm just really interested in WHY games become peoples favourites.

While every game you did list, happens to be a game I enjoy, What is it that makes them your favourite? Why did you go out of your way to choose these games (even though a favourite is singular)?

Shenmue 2 - just the greatest gaming experience of my life so far. Probably.

I don't know. I'm just covering all the bases.
