What is Your Favorite Game Series?

What is your favorite game series that you grew up on or recently enjoy? For me, the Tales Of series has been my absolute favorite. I love the anime style of each game. Looking forward to seeing what everyone else likes! :D

Oof, this is a tough one. Mass Effect immediately comes to mind since I'm currently doing an insanity run for the Legendary Edition but Dragon Age, Star Wars, and Assassins Creed are also "must buy's" for me. If I had to rank them it's be something like this, 

1. Mass Effect
2. Star Wars (also my number one fandom!)
3. Civilization series 
4. Assassins Creed
5. Dragon Age
6. Elder Scrolls

Gotta go with the Mario series!! There's just too many of them that are my absolute fave. Harvest Moon comes really close though, as does Sonic and Spyro!

The Kingdom Hearts series has always been near and dear to my heart. I grew up with it and still love it just as much to this day. I also really love the Final Fantasy series.


One I don't play much anymore but played a bunch as a kid was the Nancy Drew PC game series. They're very good and the puzzles can be challenging. It was a game my sisters, my mom, and myself could all play together and it was really great (:

It's really hard to pick a favorite, but I always find myself going back to Final Fantasy, Mario, and Donkey Kong. Super Mario Bros 3 is like my comfort game haha.

I've only played Tales of Symphonia and I LOVED it. I've been meaning to play the other ones...

My favorite game series has definitely gotta be Uncharted. I would say The Last of Us because the first game is my favorite game of all-time, but The Last of Us Part 2 is the most disappointing game of all-time so I can't really consider it a good series.

Not really the entire series altogether, but I hyperfixated over:


- Rayman
- Ratchet and Clank
- Crash Bandicoot

Still am hoping the first one gets a new game one of these days…

After spending 3 years with the folks over on λambdaposting it can not be anything other than Half-Life. I'm not even sure if any of the main instalments fall into my top 5 but as a whole I don't think I ever got so much enjoyment out of any other series and if you count in the mods and teir own legacy? Nothing else even comes close by the sheer power of TF2 alone. It's such a shame Project Borealis and especially Boreal Alyph ceased production, I was particularly hyped for them, but I am yet to play Alyx as well so it ain't exactly like I have nothing to look forward to.
