Thinking about the question I realized that my favorite game of all time (Secret of Mana) is actually not the best game I have ever played. The game I have played for the most hours and shaped my life more than any other (World of Warcraft) is also not the best game I have ever played. The game peaking at number 2 for most enjoyment and most time played for me is Diablo2. For reference the best game I ever played probably has to be Minecraft, coming in at 3rd :)
Also, after breaking with my parents, and telling my kids I love them, I realized how very rare it was for my father to tell me he loves me. So, tell people what they mean to you and that you love them because it might not seem like much at the moment, but it means a lot in the long run.
