This was spawned from the IRC topic where we mentioned the best Zelda game. What are the top games from major franchises?
Zelda: Majora's Mask/OoT (tie)
Metroid: Metroid Prime
Mario: Mario RPG/Super Mario 64
Tekken: Tekken 3
Final Fantasy: FFIX
I'll edit in more as I think of some.

I've never played FFIX so I don't know but, I think VII is a top franchise game too.
hmm, i think Tekken 5 is the best out of the tekken series. it has the most characters, i think a real good story for some of the characters, mainly the mishima clan and nina and steve. it also has devil within which i think is a real good idea, you get to unlock devil jin and replay it to get some rare items. the items in the game are also a great idea, lots of replay value for 1 player mode. also they have added some new combos for a lot of the characters. plus, it has the arcade modes of tekken 1-3. angel in tekken 2 OWNS!
i like soul calibur 2 also, mainly for the same reasons as tekken 5, although namco stepped it up a notch for t5.
goldeneye, need i say more?
warcraft iii, man this is a great game. different, yet cool graphics, adding heroes brought a whole new dynamic into the game, especially online. perfect one player and multiplayer game.
and a game i had a lot of fun with, ultima online: rennaisance. imo, one of the best mmorpgs ever made.

Megaman: Megaman 4
Megaman X: Megaman X3. That was the last time an X game was both challenging and non-crap ( X4-5 were too easy, X6 was crap. Haven't played X7-8).
Mario Bros: Super Mario World

By the way guys there never was such a franchise as FPS unfortunately (that would be awesome if there was though) , so Holy Angelic Light Ornament 2 has to go under the Holy Angelic Light Ornament franchise category and Golden Eye under James Bond.
james bond : everything or nothing ( AWESOME GAME!!! )

Warcraft: World of Warcraft
Zelda: Ocarina of time (but I have a feeling I might change it to the upcoming one)
Metroid: Metroid Prime
For the Final Fantasy, I'd go with 6 (or 3 in US).
I dunno if Smash Brothers can qualify as a franchise. I mean, yeah, there are two games, but isn't that too small? Well, even so, I agree with Smash Bros Melee being the better.
Warcraft, well, I didn't really like WoW, so WCIII for me.
Zelda.... LttP (SNES)
Zelda: Link to the Past (havent played and Cube ones ....)

Mut, don't spam.
Hmm... Mut sends a oneliner in response...
Then Krbadass sends another oneline in response to Mut's oneliner saying don't spam.
Well then, let me say to both of you "Don't spam".
Hah, my post is now 4 lines long.
So is this also spam?
Oh, and I never played MSG 3 but was so dissapointed w/ MSG 2: Sons of Liberty that I have to go with the original MSG for PS1 as my fave of that series
MGS 3 is soo much better than MGS 2 so if you are MGS fan its a must.
