I must commit:

Got now Pro evolution soccer 4 (winning eleven for japanese) and it`s so much better (and more difficult) then FIFA...

Just hate it now that i played all that FIFA games in the past (euro 200 was the last one)

I absolutely agree. FIFA games are an insult to footy fans.

*chucks in her two cents*

Wishbringer (My first pc game ever!)

All Early Sierra Games, Period. (That is, up until about Phantasmagoria, which was still pretty nifty. I wanted to lay siege to the studios when they started coming out with tripe such as KQ7 (travesty!!) and Shivers (although I still enjoyed Rama in deference to Arthur C. Clark.)

Zak McKraken & the Alien Mindbenders + Maniac Mansion. (Irreverence is fun, and so is getting suspended in third grade for tracing women in bikinis from game inserts & showing them to my innocent classmates, buahaha.)

I actually like Deus Ex the most, I think it has a great mix of the elements that I want to make a game feel fun to play. First: you are superior, I would like to have a little more adminstrating power but just the fact that you are a super soldier is relly good when you hear enemies say stuff like "They say these guys can disappear whenever they want to" when you hide from thier view.

And it also has some places where you can feel safe for a while, not like the Max Payne games(mostley the first), where you always are high tuned and ready to spring on any movement, I can tell that after 2 hours of: getting shot, reload, do bullet time, save, get shoot, reload (OK, I may not be the best on Max Payne) but after a while I lost the game becuse of this. Deus Ex has places like bases, cities, shops that there are no enemies.

Also adding a small but interesting RPG stylish chance to customize your characthers weapons, skills, nano-techs.

Not to mention that your JC (the main characther) is very smart and has a lot of knownledge about the world he lives in, so that you can choose dialog options that are very smart.

Best games ever? Well, before I bought Gothic 1 and Gothic 2 + addon, it were Heroes of Might & Magic 2, Lords of Magic Special Edition, Baldur's Gate II and Planescape - Torment.
Then came Gothic 1+2. And I never played a greater game than these two before.

Alexei Pajitnov would agree with you. He's the creator, though he never saw a ruble (or dollar, or euro) for it. If you like his games, though, you might try his puzzle collection for Microsoft, Pandora's Box. It's not a timed puzzle, but a series of roughly 8 or 9 different puzzle types, with increasing difficulty levels, and a nominal plot. Very nicely done, and with good graphics. Most definitely not abandonware, but I've seen it going cheaply secondhand on Amazon and eBay.

Tetris is definately up there... the best game I encountered is Fallout.

I've got myself bit of a hard decision here!
Well i guess the list would be:
Prince of persia 1 (die Jaffar!!)
Heroes of might and magic 2
Dune 2
C&C (first one!)
UFO: Enemy unknown and Terror from the deep
CIV 1 & 2
....
I could go on whole night like this
