Destroy All Humans. Funny, destructive and you can hover cows over unsuspecting humans.

"Well, all the Americans seem to think so. At least, the ones I scanned."

Dawn of War 40000 series

Favorite sci fi games can be a rough topic because not everyone agrees on the definition of how sci fi applies to specific games. But if I had to choose I would pick the older C&C games (not that EA Trash), The Starcraft games I feel are very well done, and the Fallout universe has always been a staple of mine.

But solid diamonds in the rough that barely anyone knows about are Einhander for it's game play and subtle storyline(playstation 1 game by Square Enix I believe), Space Quest series which is by far one of my most favorite, and Nexus: The Jupider Incident for its well played out storyline and engaging gameplay.

I left out newer releases and chose games I go back to and replay every so often.

This is a difficult one for me as well. When it comes to Story Telling... I think the Mass Effect Series has it down.

I'm still looking for a great Space Strategy/RPG that involves fleets, colonizing worlds, wars, diplomacy and planetary development.

Hope one day, someone will get it right.

Fallout 3/ New Vegas, and Bulletstorm

Seconded

But add the rest of the Halo games and Fallout 3 and take away Mass Effect 3...never played that game.

System Shock.

I do not understand the fascination with Mass Effect. It's tired scifi cliche with a wire skeleton of rail shooting.
