In no particular order;
Blood Omen: Legacy of Kain (PSX/PC)
Donkey Kong Country (SNES)
Broken Sword (PSX/PC)
Wild Arms (PSX)
Civilisation II (PC)
These are just off the top of my head as games that really stand out in my mind. Some others that come to mind are;
GTA/GTA3 - GTA3 was just awesome when it came out, and is still a favourite of mine over the newer games
WoW - Ok, so we all bash it, but the game really does suck you in and withers away your life. Once the novelty wears off though, it's all samey-same.
Red Faction (PS2) - Loads better than the sequel. The geo-mod engine which allowed you to literally blow chunks out of any wall in the game was cool.
Tony Hawks Pro Skater 3 (PS2) - I wasted too a couple of summers on the Tony Hawk games.
The Sims - addictive as hell!
Edit
Sh*t, I forgot Shenmue! Those games had me hooked for months!
Damn i forgot GTA!! GTA Vice City and GTA San Andreas easily pushes both C&C and Baldurs gate off my list.

1 - Deus Ex
2 - System Shock 2 / Thief 1 & 2
3 - Half Life / Opposing Force
4 - Ghost Recon 1 / Rainbow Six: Ravenshield (both for the hours of multiplayer fun)
5 - Total War series / Homeworld series
Eve is in a totally different pidgeon hole for me, nevertheless - its up there with the best.

In no order
1)Warhammer Dawn of War (All expansions):It can give that instant in depth strategic action most games including eve can't give as quickly.
2)Final Fantasy VII: This should be a fairly obvious choice(Have the semi-rare PC version with the box and everything)I think FF X was a close second, XII was good too.
3)Aliens Vs Predator 2: Giving the story mode a go around was a blast, specially as the marines, gives a bit better feeling of being stranded and helpless, focusing you on the mission. Also for fun factor beats many other current FPS's
4)EVE: Strangely enough I most of the time feel indifferent with EVE, I'm not really sure if it's my favorite game but I do enjoy it some of the time, it has it's moments that are awesome, but vica versa there can be hours where it seems I'm not really going anywhere.(Trying to find a corp that may solve this problem)
5)Diablo II: Only because of the amount of time it caught my attention. Still, for some reason it kept me and many others entertained with such a mindless hack and slash style, not sure how but it was fun for a long time.

In absolutely no order:
Tie Fighter - Days were lost to this game and all the expansions. It took all the best bits of X-Wing and fixed the bad bits. Perfect.
Syndicate - Mini guns and Persuadatrons ahoy. Pity Synd2 was crap.
Half Life - So good it hurt
Half Life 2 - So good it hurt... again
Magic Carpet - Fireballs, lightning storms, big castles. Used to play til my hand hurt from clicking the mouse. |

1, EVE Online - What else  ?
2, Homeworld Cataclysm - Multiplayer was a blast!
3, Rock Band - Rock out!
4, Final Fantasy VIII - Loved the story
5, Civilization - The original and the best.
ALRIGHT who were you? there's only like 5 people in the world that think HW:C had the best multiplayer (including me)
let's see... I still have 3800 screenshots from HWC.
Unfortunately I cannot say who I was as some super sleuth would find a reference saying that my character in EVE played HW:C and then I would get outed.
Needless to say I still fondly remember the says of 4 v 4 on Close Quarters, 1 v 1 vs silencio (man that guy was hardcore), the early days of the Wolf Pack running rampage and dropping a DFF right in front of a Kunn Lann 2 seconds before the siege cannon went off.
Damn good times 
silencio was without doubt the best 1v1 player in cata. always loved having games with the guru's and demons, always learned something new from playing them.
pity the won servers are down now :(
1. Homeworld Cata
2. COD4
3. FF7
4. KOTOR
5. Dungeon Keeper

5. Homeworld 1
I want to stick Red Faction/Deus Ex/Painkiller on there somewhere but I'm not sure which ones I want to put in my top 5! Arcanum is on there somewhere as well.

Thief 1-3 were great.
I'm continually torn between the desire to see Thief IV and the feeling that the third chapter completed the whole story in such a symmetric manner that it would be a crime to make a sequel.
The City is my absolute favorite game universe, with nothing coming close to it (not even Fallout or AvP).
P.S: The haunted orphanage in Thief: Deadly Shadows is possibly one of the most scary levels of any game I've ever played (beating anything AvP II and System Shock threw at me).

1) MOH:AA - I co-ran TMY (The Mystery Yodas) clan and we were the best Euro team for just under a year until we disbanded, then I joined DaMn. Clanbase and everyone there hated us in DaMn .. that made the game far more fun I can tell you 
2) BF: Vietnam. I loved this version better than the others (I have all the BF series) because you can play great music while driving cars, flying helicoptors/planes etc.
3) HL:2 - Self explainitory really
4) Any of the Hitman series. All brilliant in their own way.
5) Splinter Cell - love the stealth stuff, makes you think for a change.
I dont mention Eve because i'm still playing Eve. So it goes without saying that after all these years Eve still holds my attention. As i've just paid for another years subs I must be enjoying it

Wow... Cataclysm? Really?
I support that too... It is after all the best game of the series... Also the one with the best UI, including Homeworld 2, which I didn't really like...

- Crusaders of the Dark Savant (wizardry 7) - Semi text RPG, wasted my youth with this one.
- C & C Zero Hour. Unlimited Gameplay. Propably the most addicting and passion played game by me. For 3 years in a row, still havent got bored of it.
- Wing Commander because it was the first but it was nothing compared to X-Wing series for gameplay...
-Simcity 4
Apart from these 4 games that first come in mind, i have wonderfull memories of other games but they fall in the same "Appreciation level" Some are.
F1GP 2 (microprose), Medieval 2, Silent Hunter 2-3-4, Falcon 3, ATF, Eurofighter, Simcity 4, Warcraft 2, Age of Empires, Fallout, Heroes of Might and Magic, Baldurs gate, Privater, UFO/X-COM, transport tycoon, Colonization, Fifa, NBA Live 98', settlers, Master of Orion... etc etc...
Geezzz i have played a lot of games!

I know I will not get kind opinions or remarks for some of the things I am about to say here, but a few comments made in this thread simply have to be shot down, even though I'm nitpicking. They are:
Originally by: Buxaroo
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
It's a shame then that you are not in the know, because C&C was not the first RTS (true or otherwise) for the PC. Two games called Dune II and Warcraft came before it. The former of those defined the RTS genre as we know it. C&C added many improvements and became the de facto standard for all RTS games.

Oldest to newest
1. Star Wars X-Wing Fighter...
2. Lemmings - Ecrack
Lemmings is older than any of the X-Wing or TIE Fighter games.
Originally by: Suze'Rain
Syndicate (PC, 1993)
odd that almost all my games are sandboxes.
If Syndicate is a sandbox, then it is a very small sandbox. I would actually go so far as to say that Syndicate is not a sandbox game. But it is a very very open game. Loads of fun too.
This one is kinda off-topic:
Originally by: Atomos Darksun
Sadly, I think CCP is going the direction of SOE right now - not listening to their loyal community when they should. When we say that the nerf is overnerf, they scream NO!!!! to the same extent as SOE did when everybody said the NGE sucked and they should rollback.
Considering how the "Loyal Community" behaves on these very forums, it should come as no surprise to anyone that CCP does not listen. Have you ever considered that it is actually the "Loyal Community" that is screaming NO!!!! (and acting like spoiled babies) and not CCP?
Originally by: Marcus Xero
ATOMIC BOMBERMAN - hard to get hold of...
Getting your hands on a Bomberman game (or a clone that plays exactly like it) is very easy. You'll have a harder time catching a cold. (Hint: Try Googling it.)
Now, for my top 5 games, in alphabetical order:
Bubble Bobble (1985) - Such a simple game. Such a silly concept. Such incredible depth and charm. Such a great design. An absolute classic.
Planescape: Torment (1999) - The best RPG game ever made. No other game has captured the core ideals of RPGs as well as PS:T.
Psychonauts (2005) - The best game made in the last 8 years. In an era of me-too clones and "only do stuff that'll sell well", it's a wonder to see someone make a game that actually does something different, and with style too.
Thief trilogy (1998, 2000, 2004) - I was surprised it took 4 pages for any of these games to show up here. I'm actually having trouble finding the proper words to describe these three games, but they are awesome. Hard as nails, but worth it. Thief: The Dark Project spawned off the "stealth-game" genre that's been done to death in the last 10 years.
Ultima VII (1992) - The Ultimate Sandbox game. You're plonked into a living, breathing world, and while you're given a direction to go into, there's no need to follow it. In fact, somebody thought it would be funnier to break the game rather than complete it. |

let's see, this may sound shocking, from first to last, 1 being the most liked/loved :P. *2,3 and 5 are still being played*
( heard noone say this one before )
1: Earth and Beyond
Loved it the beginning i played it,been playing it for a year but EA closed it down on september 2004, closed it down with this excuse: Electronic Arts wished to put more money into The Sims Online and turn that into a big marketing success.
EnB is being remade. ill return there if its finished :P
2: EvE
well of course it had to be in here, was the next MMO i played after EnB shut down. still love it ^-^
3: Trackmania United Forever
its a simple game, and has this addicting Aura.
4:Black and White 1&2
call me crazy but i loved playing God somehow :P, yea i was younger then, bought Black and White 1 when it came out, of course i bought the Expansion too.
5:Burnout Series
I wasnt really a Racing Game kind of Guy, but Burnout was something else, my first contact was with Burnout 2 actually. and now all the way to the end, Burnout Paradise for Xbox 360 *godly :P*
