I actually would not say FL as best game ever played. It's a very difficult question... In terms of action and replayability I would say Diablo II (can't wait for III). In terms of strategy I have to say Civilization II, I would also say Civ IV is better, but I grew up with Civ II and played it more (I think) because it was the first game like that I played. In terms of some comprise between the two I would have to say KOTOR or maybe *cringe* pokemon, It's sad but true. Never went crazy for the Final Fantasy series, a little too complex for me to enjoy, that and they are all soap operas.
