Tricky, 3 just isn't enough >_<

Old (10 years or more):

Stonekeep
The Lands of Lore series (1 & 3 especially, 2 never really grew on me as much)
The Discworld Series.
UFO Enemy Unknown
Doom.
Anvil of Dawn

New (ish):
Silent Hill 4 - The Room
Kingdom Hearts
Monkey Island 3
World of Warcraft (Dwarf Hunter ftw.)

But then you can't really ignore some of those silly classics like The Legend of Kyrandia series, Day of the Tentacle, Toonstruck, Simon The Sorcerer, Sam and Max hit the Road etc

Although one game that used to keep me surprisingly occupied for hours was Sim Ant.
So many factfiles about Ants O_O
& the noise of the splodge of food always amused me. Small things really.

Just the other day, i bought HALO 2 for my xbox. and without a shadow of a doubt has to be one of the best, if not the best FPS "first person shooters" of all time. its well worth a mention, not only that but i bought in Game for a fiver. if you already have it or are going to get it, then i challenge you to start the Game with the Difficulty set to "Legendery", and see how long it takes you to do the first level. it took me, and this is no joke, just 3 Days to compleat the first level, on the hardest setting. it makes the game so much better. so if you like a challenge like me, you will love it!

You must be joking... or haven't seen enough FPS games to compare. Halo 2 is crappy compared to many other games of that genre, heck even Halo 1 was better. Not to mention it's console-only FPS game and as a result inferior-by-default to PC FPS (although Halo 1 was released for PC). Mediocre at best.

Planescape: Torment
Deus Ex
Half-Life 2

All absolutely, mind-blowingly awesome. I have a soft spot for Aliens Versus Predator 2 as well for some reason.

Only three that may be a little hard considering it's not entirely fair to compare across genres.

1: Deus Ex

BEST GAME EVER - PERIOD.

This coming from someone who pretty much hates any singleplayer FPS. Sure it wasn't a straight shooter FPS, but I avoided all shooting games with a first person perspective for years. I somehow avoided HL1, never heard of the game until a few years later when apparently it was the greatest game ever released according to its review scores. For some reason I was "wasting" my time playing apparently not greatest games such as BG1 and 2, Planescape Torment and Fallout... when I should have been playing HL1 ... NOT :P.

Why Deus Ex? - the complete freedom and the fact that it was sci-fi. I can't believe I only played this game at the end of 2005. I had it for years, tried it in the beginning, didn't give it a chance at first, oh how stupid was I. I honestly regard this as one of the pinnacles of gaming.

2: Fallout 2 & Planescape Torment and Baldur's Gate Series

I have to stick all these three in at #2. It wouldn't be fair for me to choose one over the other. I have slightly more affection for Fallout 2, but that is primarily because of its setting. Post apocalyptic setting > fantasy for me, but I enjoyed all these 3 about the same. They also happen to be my favorite RPG's of all time.

Fallout 2 -> Guns, gore and twisted humor
Planescape Torment -> story and characters
Baldur's Gate -> epic, unique and beautiful

3: Grim Fandango, Broken Sword 1, Zork Grand Inquisitor and The Longest Journey

My all time favorite adventures. Story, characters and an empty feeling inside after completing each of them. Beautiful, beautiful games.

1. LBA2: Absolutely the best game I have ever played. The game is very long. It has fantastic plot, enough challenge and enough puzzles, enough variation, VERY many places to discover, nice graphics (with lovely ingame videos) etc. Everything is fine in this game.

2. Age Of Empires: Very good game. I listed some good points here.

3. Doom, I don't like it anymore so much, but it's a legend.
