I must agree with you here. There's a lot of games I loved when I was a kid and have huge nostalogy value, a great many that permanently influenced my gaming or other parts of my life, and a bunch I play the most today, but can't tell for sure if I'll care about them in a year or two.
There are ones that were written better than the others, there are ones that dazzled me with how good they looked, ones that just played so damn well, or just had some weird little cool bit that made me love them.
How the heck could I pick just 5 games as some completely arbitrary favorites? The best I could ever do would be a long list of memorable masterpieces, and well there's a list in my profile if anyone is honestly interested. =P
