Sorry I didn't know how to have this make sense in the title but I tried... Anyway I want you to use your initials, mine are CTG, and pick your favorite game that starts with a letter in your initials.

My initials CTG

Call of duty: black ops 1
This game came out after I got hooked on modern warfare2, so I was anticipating this game so much. Me and my buddies in junior high convinced are parents to let us stay home and play it all day. We had a blast in zombies which it still has the best zombie maps to date. Also best cod multiplayer with the wager system that was just so cool. I loved getting people pissed off in the tomahawk one. Then those 10,000 wager matches were the most intense multiplayer gaming experiences out there. Really wish games would let us wager stuff on a match more often. Then it had the second best cod campaign, right behind MW2. I roundly remember the deer hunter level and the one where you run on top of the sky scrapers and stuff. Really this is the most solid all around cod.

Timesplitters: future perfect
Talk about my childhood going through elementary. Me and my buddies would always come over after playing b-ball and destroy some people in virus. All monkeys with no weapons was the way to go. Also loved doing 100 lives on the ice map. This game was so packed with stuff to do also with the challenges. They were fun but extremely hard. The meat of the game though was the superb campaign. It was so varied ranging from mission's infiltrating a base during the Cold War, all the way to fighting through a mansion where a gaint moose comes out of the wall and you have to fight him as a boss. Seriously we need another time splitters or a remaster...

Gears of war 2
Whaaaaaaat, most of you are probley saying. Why gears to and not the better 1 or 3. Well this one came out when I was going into junior high and me and my buddies would have tons of sleepovers and just try to finish horde mode. The campaign was my favorite to with skurge being a epic foe. Hell I even loved the natories worm level. Also wingman was the shit. Bloodbeast25 where ever you are we tore that shit up!!!

So what are your guy's?

Just Cause 3 (far from being one of my favorite games, but I literally cannot think of another game I've played and enjoyed that starts with j)
Chivalry: Medieval Warfare (balances out the above by being my favorite game ever)

GJB

Grand Theft Auto San Andreas
Just Cause 2
Batman Arkham Origins

The G was easy I really had to think for the other two and I still don't feel comfortable with those picks.

B - Banjo Kazooie
L - LittleBigPlanet
S - Super Metroid

Struggled with finding something for "L". I enjoyed the LBP games a lot more than most here did, though I wouldn't exactly call it one of my favorite games in the same way I would with Banjo or Super.

Initials - WNSD

W - WarioWare: Touched!
The first DS game I ever got and my first time playing the series. I loved how it used the DS touch screen for it's minigames and it was addicting trying to beat my high scores for each game.

N - New Super Mario Bros. Wii
At the time it was released it brought back many things I loved from Super Mario World like Yoshi and the Koopa Kids as bosses. I had a blast messing with my brothers in the multiplayer mode too.

S - Super Mario Galaxy
The peak of 3D Mario imo. Fantastic ost, great bosses, and even an interesting story with the Luma and Rosalina.

D - Donkey Kong Country 2
Just edges out Tropical Freeze here. DKC2 has one of my favourite soundtracks of all time, with brilliant level design and themes that the music compliments perfectly.

Super Mario Bros. 3
One of the top games of my childhood.
Call of Juarez: Gunslinger
Dying Light is good, but this is Techland's best as far as I'm concerned. It's fun and creative, has the soul of a great arcade game.
Kentucky Route Zero
I've barely played it but it seems cooler than any other K game I can think of.

RTB

R: Red Dead Redemption
-Easy choice for me, the others not so much. I love westerns, I love rockstar games, loved the Undead Nightmare, I love this game. Honorable mentions: Ridge Racer, Resident Evil 2

T: Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (arcade version)
-This is where it starts getting messy for me. This game was a huge part of my childhood and ate more quarters than I care to admit. Love the game, love the turtles, love the coop, and I miss arcades. Honorable mentions go to: Timesplitters, Tales of Monkey Island, and Terraria.

B: Blood Omen: Legacy of Kain 2
-Another game which was a huge part of my childhood, I guess I let nostalgia influence these picks heavily. This letter is an insanely heavy hitter to my mind. Honorable mentions: Baldurs Gate: Dark Alliance (honestly I think it probably should have gotten my vote...), Bayonetta 2, Bioshock, and Bully (the most underrated R* game).

Kid Icarus Uprising. Good writing, solid humor, a unique control scheme and fun game overall.

I

Ikaruga - Probably my favorite old school styled shoot-em up game. Difficult, but once you got the color switching done it was like pure bliss.

D

Donkey Kong: Jungle Beat - Don't get me wrong, I love Retro's DK games. But I haven't beat Tropical Freeze yet so... this wins by default. Probably one of the most pure fun games ever created (with bongos). DK's agility speed and power were amazing, and the wackiness of it all was the icing on the cake.

K

Killer7 - What can I say, I love crazy games and this is the most trippy, batshit crazy game I've ever played. The story was nuts, the visuals were awesome, and the gameplay was cool and unique. I forever became a Suda51 fan after this.

And yeah, my initials are IDK

M - Mass Effect 1 (Metal Gear Solid 1, 2 and 3 are looking at me all hurt and sad.....sorry fellas but I couldn't pick just one of you unlike the Mass Effect games which is super duper easy to pick the good one)
J - Just Cause 2
H - Hitman Blood Money

Probably blanking on J and H games but I really liked Just Cause 2 and Blood Money so no complaints.

J - Just Cause 2. Having a hard time thinking of games with J I absolutely loved. But JC2 was chaotic fun, so Ill go w that.

W - Wii Sports. I hate motion controls, but this worked and was one of the most fun games Ive played with a group.

M - Mother 2 (if this is cheating since it was technically Earthbound in USA, than Metal Gear Solid
