Since I've been playing PC games almost since the PC came out (my first PC was an Amstrad PC1512), some of these games may not be familiar to some, but my list is:

Starflight (my first ever PC game)
Starfleet I
Might And Magic 2
Panzer General
Heroes Of Might And Magic 3
Baldur's Gate
Medieval: Total War

I forgot Civilization 2

I'm actually quite fussy on games. SO only Baldurs gate and divine divinity make it into my list.

Is anyone taking scores? we could make a giant poll about it

starting to enjoy Baldur's gate 2 tho, an there are some games that I'mreconsidering, like stronghold, Battle realms, and of course Soulbringer - no one else seems to have heard about that last one, it's a pitty... most people won't get my excitment about it, but it's the first PCgame I bought (not first PC game played, that had to be duke nukem 3D ) and I loved it

I am a big might and magic fan and will nver grow tired of it.

All of Quake and Unreal get my vote, along with everything ever made by Blizzard (all of the Starcraft & Warcraft games), and of course: Baldur's Gate and all its sequels including Icewind Dale...

And so many more excellent games that I've temporarily forgotten.

1. Day of the Tentacle
2. Monkey Island 2
3. System Shock 2
3. Baldurs Gate
4. Xwing vs Tie Fighter
5. Baldurs Gate

I suppose X-wing: Alliance should have been on my list, but my list would go up to 50 or so if i added all my favorites
And Baldur's gate deserves two mentions

FEAR definitely kicks butt. But if you want to say the best during a game's first release, then I'll say DOOM really knocks everything out. No game could ever have toppled it's gameplay during the 90s.

Joel007

was it DOOM where you could kick with both feet at the same time?

Justme

Pong ( Because it started me gaming)
Doom
Half Life
Gothic 1 (Greatest Game ever)
Gothic 2 (2nd Greatest ever)
NOTR (Best addon ever)
Gothic 3 ( best potential, worst flop ever)

My husband loves Baldur's Gate, now we got the Baldur's Gate for the GameCube. Big mistake. He's taken over the TV so he can play that game. Ocassionally he DOES go back to the PC, but usually he's on the GameCube.

Don't forget Thief, Sensible World of Soccer and Fallout 1+2 :P

I love playing everything and anything, it bugs me when people overlook games because they don't have a gun you can shoot. I love first person shooters as much as the next guy, but I also love games like revolt, or rollercoaster tycoon. My list has to be...

Baldurs Gate 2 - No one does story better than Bioware
Half Life - hands down best FPS
The Sims - addictive pointless fun
Diablo 2 - awesome all around, single and multiplayer.
NOX - 1 of the first games I ever bought, special place in my heart
Age of Wonders - which might have been better than AOE at the time
Home World - Ahead of it's time
Re-Volt - Battle Racing before we had Mario Kart
Ultima Online - 1 of the first MMO's (can't list the other cuz i didn't try them)
and
Jedi Knight II Jedi Outcast - finally a game that let you do it all.

I would have to say:

1. Age of Empires.
2. Star Wars Knights of the Old Republic.
3. Battle for Middle Earth 2.
4. The Sims.
5. Star Wars Jedi Knight Jedi Academy
