I've been plugging a few hours into Command, and it's quite well done, but it lacks the whole Starfox dramatic versatile scrolling levels. Everything is in all range mode, but the whole strategic Risk-esque factor is pretty well implemented.

And I know Nintendo isn't the most well looked upon platform around here, but dammit, Orcarina of Time #1.

Well, I want to play Command even more now...

And you're 100% correct, OoT is certainly the greatest game there ever was, or will ever be.

P.S.: IMO means what?

Umm, are these expansions downloadable via 28.8k modem?
[/b]
the stuff he mentioned are not expensions you get when you buy the bundle. When you buy those you get (aside from Half-life) counter strike (with a second CD KEY to use), opposing force (single player new story&weapons) and blue shift (single player game, same weapons but only those security guard would know how to use). you also get team fortress on it...

you can later download day of defeat (the older version had a great bot) and many other mods such as firearms, thenn one mod about American civil war... but those are multiplayer mods.

If you have 28.8kb Modem it will take a loooooong time to download the mods. when i still had that modem i just bought the bundle then i downloaded bots (only 1 or 2MB) and enjoyed in multiplayer mode on my own (LAN). plus i have 2 CD keys and i can now use both for play (or since i have a brother we could both play online).

If you can download the mods somewhere else later you can play it quite decently over the net (especially some mods) since half life had the network code well done. and with a few tweaks you can get quite low pings with normal modem.

bottom line i went for the package. and i would do it again if i "had to".

My list. So hard to decide which ones... i am sure i forgot some.

10. Wolfenstein 3D: Spear of destiny
9. Civilisation(s)
8. Doom 2
7. XCOM: Terror from the deep
6. Ultima underworld 1 (&2)
5. Heroes of Might & Magic
4. Settlers 3
3. Unreal (& UT)
2. Morrowind
1. Half-life and its mods&expansions

I also liked the sword fighting and effects in Jedi Knight 2: Jedi outcast especially the effect of force speed.

Medal of honour had a lot of potential, but too much of the story was deja vu.

Ah yes space empires 3 get's to be mentioned here as a good & fun strategy game. Probably takes up the 11th place.

I haven't tried yet the Half-life 2, Settlers 4 and i have system shock (1&2) on standby (i hear it's great). Hmm offtopic - is system shock fun in coop play?

You forgot the game that's better than all the other games you get on Steam, Day of Defeat, SOOO much better than Counter-strike and any of the other mods.

IMO Splinter Cell is a great game, but the third one, "Chaos Theory" is the best...you get a knife...
