 To me the best real-time strategy game ever made, Age of Mythology combines the air-tight game mechanics of the Age of Empires series with the fantasy of classical mythology. The player has the choice of three factions; Ancient Norse, Greeks and Egyptians. When chosing one of these, the player must then also chose out of three different main Gods, which determine unique units, certain bonusses and so-called God Powers. The expansion adds the Atlanteans, on top of a few extra new features, but it kind of unbalances the game.

Even to this day, the game looks very good, and it's the product of the great game engine Ensemble created and later used to even more beautiful result in Age of Empires III. This game was one of the more popular multiplayer-games in my family back in the day, and some matches could get quite tense.

GTA: San Andreas?

Game #32
This game has a completely different name in America, but uses the traditional name because of the series' fame in Europe. Usually, the numbers in the titles of these games add up to '9'.

The one and only! By far the best title in the series for me.

For those who missed it, Picture clues for #32.

 

It seems it's time for another hint, the hero's name is a letter of the alphabet.

Greek Alphabet?

It is in the Greek Alphabet too...

Is it Mega Man X?

YES!
