1. Favorite Game?
Rayman 2: The Great Escape (PSX)
2. Why?
Platformers are one of my favorite genres, and it's not hard to call Rayman 2 one of the best 3D platformers of all time. Through and through it was challenging but not frustrating, had catchy music and sounds, beautiful environments, and good controls. It was fun as hell, and was the perfect length; not dissapointingly short, nor long to the point of getting boring. The levels and themes were diverse, so it wasn't too repetitive. Rayman 2 pushed everything to the limits without going overboard in any field.
tl;dr: Flawless 3D platformer.
3. Anything come close?
Metroid Prime would've been my second choice. Other really close ones include Super Metroid, Metroid Fusion, Phoenix Wright 3, Metal Gear Solid, Trauma Center: UtK, Spyro 2, Crash Team Racing, Smash Bros trilogy, probably more I'm not remembering.
4. Most hated game?
Crash Boom Bang. Why do they have to rub salty piss in the gashes they've already caused in our childhood? Just let Crash die in peace, he's worse than Sonic nowadays.
