some of those games are now very outdated, graphics being horrible and gameplay sucking. However, those were absolutely fantastic for you when they were out.
Of all time, i think the most fun i had in a game was
1-Battlezone I (the 3D version) (not the wireframe arcade)
You could pack your entire base and move on, produce, get minerals from shooting people, even snipe the pilots to take their ships, leave your ship to continue by foot etc
The storyline (man is already on the moon in the early 60's, russia vs US with a 3d party coming at the end) was really solid, the gameplay was awesome, the interface was great, the multiplayer fantastic (once it was finally fixed).
2. Diablo
click and kill. dude i played for 8 hours! i have to go! and "pinnng" the little ring sound comes up, 'OHSHI-" and here you go again for hours.
3. Civilization I
a bit too easy once you got the ropes, but the full day games were fun :p
4. I-War
very underrated game imo. A full CD for intro, with awesome video footage. flying in a spaceship very much Nyx-like, with the crew. really required piloting skills as your large ship inertia made all the interest. if only eve had the same physical model...
5. Homeworld
you all know it. flying in a naglfar-kind of mothership. controlling drones in eve reminds me a lot about this game :p
Well that's it for me :D

1) Wolfenstein
2) DOOM
3) Diablo II
4) Elder Scrolls
5) EVE
In order of oldest to newest since that is the natural progression for me.
EDIT: I am ashamed to say that WOW could have been in the top 5, but I stayed there for to long. The first few weeks in WoW were crazy...I actually felt like I was falling when I fell/jumped off of a cliff edge.

- EVE Online - I mean really, most of us have been playing this longer than any game. 'nuff said
- Command and Conquer - Was the first true RTS for the PC. But anyone in the know knows that Herzog Zwei from the first Sega Genesis was the first RTS
- X-Wing and Tie Fighter - Seriously, most who played this back in '93-94 know that these were probably the most fun space sim games ever made. If they were to release these with todays graphics......zomg
- Half Life - This game was a major breakthrough in it's day and has spawned countless mods. Day of Defeat, Counter Strike....not to mention HL2.
- Battlefield 1942 - Never have I had so much fun playing a fps/flight/vehicle sim. BF2 as great as well. The Midway map stands out as one of the best maps of any game I have played on.

Excluding EVE and in no particular order
Donkey Kong - In the arcades and also when I had a Dragon 32 many many moons ago
Elite - A given considering the game we all play
Quake - I remember a lot of brown textures and then I popped to PC World (please forgive me) and bought a Voodoo 3DFX card and the difference was stunning. It's really hard to explain how big a leap this was considering what us older gamers have played and what younger people take for granted.
Infocom adventure games - Text only but so deviously clever and a lot of fun. I couldn't imagine a commercial text only game nowadays.
DAoC - My first MMO and one I shall always remember fondly as it had the best overal PvP I have ever played. Yes I prefered being a BH killing Jedi in SWG and I do love a good Cap fight in EVE, but for sheer wellimplementedness (new word soon to be in the OED) RvR in DAoC was great.

I am really looking forward to OFP2. Saw some of the videos on gametrailers and it's looks very sweet indeed. I loved OFP a lot but the only reason why I never really got into more was because of the GUI. It was very counter intuitive to me. But the rest of it was great.

Oh yeah i had lots of fun with that. I never got the hang of making a whole level and playing it. I used to have tons of fun downloading mods and vehicles etc. and creating these huge fights with everything (Usually on desert island map)
Tons of soldiers, tanks, helicopters etc, pure carnage. (Great to watch and snipe stray victims  )
oh top 5 so hard :
1)Metal Gear Solid Series (MGS 4 rocks)
2)Orange box
3)Elder Scrolls (Oblivion mostly)
4)Total War Medeval 2
5)Eve Online
if i could choose a 6th it would have to X3, Love space games
Dang wrong character (Lordswift)

Homeworld (I+II)

Mind you I was only like 10 when I played most of those so I probably remember them being better than they actually are. I just don't have any enthusiasm for most games nowadays
