I can honestly say that i have atleast never anjoyed an indie game as much as i have enjoyed Ovegrowth.

And the only game that right now can compete with my eagerness for the full release of overgrowth is Battlefield 3.

Best could also mean on a technical level, in which case Overgrowth would have a shot at being the best even at it's current state.
The only engine I have seen even come close to the Phoenix engine is the HPL engine (by frictional), which beats Phoenix by a mile due to it's scripting abilities, physics, and level editor.

But I'm sure it will be veeery close once Overgrowth is released! :D

Try comparing the animation, terrain, UI and blood effects while you're at it :) Different engines have different features based on the needs of the game.

The indie game I had the most fun with so far is Cortex Command.
