Orcarina of Time - What's there to say that has been said about this game.
Super Smash Bros. Melee - Played this game so much it told me to actually go outside XD
Pokemon Red/Blue - Bringing it to school and beating everyone with my Lv.100 Mewtwo felt so sweet. Good Times.
Tales of Symphonia - First and only game to ever make me feel so emotional toward the end.
Super Mario Brothers 3 - First game I've ever played and still do to this day.
I like playing Wow but it is no where near any top game I've played. I consider it more like a filler between games I play.

1. Heroes of Might and Magic (Particularly the 3rd one) - Played with my friend the original one when I was like 7.
2. KOTOR - Star Wars +, Amazing RPG +, Great storyline and character choice.
3. Warcraft 3 Custom Maps - Been playing for seven years and there is always a game I can have fun playing on it.
4. League of Legends - Great PvP game that you can't just faceroll through.
5. World of Warcraft(Preferred BC) - Amazing game but lots of the players are not the nicest of people, and the game play can be monotonous at times. I've been playing for four years on and off.

I'm going to have to go out of a limb and say "no." Not because I don't love WoW, it's just never given me one of those really dynamite reactions that some other games give me. On a measure of pure enjoyment/time spent, WoW would probably be top 20, but not top 5.
1. Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion.
2. The Legend of Zelda: Wind Waker (I don't care what anyone says, I LOVED sailing.)
3. The Final Fantasy series. (Love them all, a few are above the rest, but not by a ton.)
4. Earthbound. 'Nuff said.
5. Diablo II. If there's a game that I spent almost as much time as I've spent on WoW or Oblivion, it's Diablo II.

Even tho I've been playing wow for a few years I don't think it as a game is really all that great. If it weren't for some of the friends I've made I wouldn't even bother anymore.
I would put starcraft, baldur's gate series, torment, Halo and Morrowwind all above wow as gaming experiences.

Wow you put wow above earthbound and duke3d?
Warcraft would be in my top5 time wasters but not my top5 gaming experience.
(net)Quake1 (multiplayer)
Since Ninety Six in the hizhouuuuuuse!
Duke Nukem 3d (multiplayer)
Shrink gun > all
Starcraft (multiplayer)
Great game that forced me to get better after every game
Team Fortress 2 (multiplayer duh)
Counterstrike's funny cousin
(skulltag) Doom I and II (multiplayer)
Fast paced action with weapons that deal a ridiculous amount of damage.

hmm....
1. golden eye
2. perfect dark
3. zelda games
4. super smash brosephs
5. WoW
really, WoW isnt much more than an updated runescape to me. I enjoyed runescape to a point, but its so grindy and feels like a job. I learned a lot from WoW, and made some great friends, but as far as gameplay goes, WoW isnt much.

Haha, so many people listing Baldur's Gate, and only one mention of Planescape Torment.
Anyone who played Baldur's Gate, liked it, and is not an overly sensitive teenage girl wearing white fluffy boots, will love Planescape Torment. Real fact is real. Play it.
Some of my really favorite games, not sorted by any order:
Gothic 1
- completed 3 times. Just loved it.
Gothic 2
- completed 4 times. After completing it for the first time, i could not understand what i liked about Gothic 1 so much.
Risen
(a.k.a. gothic 3,5) - completed 2 times. This game was like the feelings of Gothic 1, 2, and 3 added together, and doubled. Awesome combat system.
Morrowind
- probably did the main quest only once, but i spent extreme ammounts of hours just sandboxing in this thing. My list of mods was endless.
Baldur's Gate 1+2
- Did not really enjoy the first one... level cap was annoying and easy to reach, and the controls were soooo clunky... also resolution was like bad bad. Completed BG2 about 5 times.
Planescape Torment
- Sex in digital form. Completed only twice though, but i made sure i have explored everything i possibly could.
Arcanum of Steamworks and Magick Obscura
- Steampunk F_T_W. The crafting in thes game was just wicked! But it was crazy unbalanced :< On my third playthrough, i killed the last boss in a single round. I also actually have the soundtrack of this on my playlist.
KotOR 1
- Pretty awesome, my love for lightsabers stemmed from this game. The combat movements were totally bad ass. I also love how i could just swing my swords in a cool fashion outside of combat.
Mass Effect 1+2
- Pure awesomeness. Can not say how much i dig the story, and characters, and combat, and lore, and everything. Completed ME1 once, and currently going through ME2 for the second time. Its like watching a goddamn good movie and playing the best rpg ever at once. I own all the DLCs for this, and they are awesome too.
Dragon Age
- Was pretty good. It was fun when i was figuring out what was the most OP character. Once i started pwning every monster with an OP rogue on the highest difficulty, it... well, it was still pretty good. Nice ending. But weaker than Mass Effect. Shale was awesome.
Fallout 2
- Played lots of times. :D My most favorite one was a playthrough with a pure melee character. Nothing beats the feeling of beating the crap out of Frank with bare fists. (Power fists were lame).
Fallout 3
- Pretty good sandbox experience, just walked around and explored stuff. Very, very few quests, which was disappointing. But the quests were pretty memorable on the other hand. Tried playing it with a pure melee character, but it was pretty much impossible :( Super mutants with grenade launchers on places i could not run to, and such stuff. Did not wanna do a melee/grenade hybrid.
Final Fantasy VIII
- Haha, here come jrpgs. This is the only FF i played, but it was fricking sweet. Over 150 hours played :D
Pokémon whatever color, metal, gem, or organ
- Pure awesomeness. :D The concept is still the same for like a billion years, but it works great, and training+breeding ultimate pokémons is a lot of fun!
Also, comparing any of these to WoW is like comparing anti-matter theories to apples. Dunno, it just feels like a totally diferent thing. WoW is odd. And damn good too.
edit: Added Arcanum.

Counting down:
5.
Bioshock 1 & 2
- Video gaming as an art. When I look at this game, I see more than a shooter, more than a story, more than a moral thought experiment. I see a detailed painting of man. They both touched me in a way no other video game has.
4.
Mass Effect 1 & 2
- Mass Effect 1 was the Star Wars game I never got. KotOR was a great game, but I never felt at home shooting my blasters in a turn based combat system. Mass Effect not only let me shoot aliens how I wanted to shoot them, it let me go where I wanted to go, it let me make friends the way I wanted to make them, it let me save the galaxy how I wanted to save it. Mass Effect 2 improved on the formula in a way beyond my expectations.
3.
Half Life 1 & 2
- Half Life 1 was my first single-player shooter. It's the shooter I've played the most times through (12). Half Life 2 was the perfect sequel. One thing that always struck me is the fact that I never noticed that you couldn't "zoom in" your weapon when I was playing. I never felt like I had to crouch down and hide and be "tactical." I felt like I was going to save the world, and &*!@ anyone who got in my way.
2.
Baldur's Gate 1 & 2
- The best rpg experience I have ever had. These are characters I fell in love with, not because of their sexy 3D models (Dragon Age, I'm looking at you) nor their amazing voice acting (you too Mass Effect). I fell in love with Imoen and Minsc because of who they were. They were friends. Pixelated friends, but friends nonetheless.
1.
Portal 1 (& soon-to-be 2)
- The single most epic, engrossing, fun, fulfilling, perfect game I've ever played. All the good parts (puzzles, music, environment, turrets, companion cube) were good in themselves, but what made this game so great was GLaDOS. Her psychological games made Portal the masterpiece it is. Sure, a pretty companion cube with hearts can stand out, but a companion cube with hearts that GLaDOS tells you not to listen to should it speak is that much more epic.
So, no WoW. For me, it's two things: a time-waster, and a social network. And neither of those put it in my top 5. It might make it to my top 20.
