Too difficult to boil down to a single game so, in no particular order:

Sensi World of Soccer     -     Fast, big heads on little bodies, curl in a goal from half way line and also a career / management mode.
MegaLoMania                    -     Ergonomically terrific! We've nuked 'em!
Syndicate                            -     Most efficient flamethrower ever, and funny in a sick way.
Cannon Fodder                 -     WAR! Never been so much fun! Addictive, funny, great theme song. Jops 'n' Jools rule.
Frontier: Elite 2                  -     Game just never ended if you didn't want it to, got boring eventually but at the time just great.

Starcraft which needs no reasons since everyone knows them already.

Monkey Island for the insult based swordplay alone, well, maybe also good for getting 'a-head' in navigation... took me ages to figure that part out, no internet back then.

I could go on all day, obviously haven't thought this out enough so I'll stop there...

Mobo:                Asus P5KR
Cpu:                  Core 2 Duo E6850 @ 3.0GHz
Memory:            3GB DDR2 @ 800MHz

Hdd:                  1st - 500GB SATA II  2nd - 120GB IDE
Gfx:                    512MB nVidia 8600GTS
Monitor:            17" LCD
Sound:              Realtek Digital Output (Realtek High Definition Audio)
K/B - Mouse:    Standard
PSU:                  650W
Case:                Thermaltake Soprano Vx
OS:                     XP Home SP3
Gamepad:        360 Controller for Windows - I like Devil May Cry, so shoot me :-)

As long as it runs Dead Space (if it turns out as good as it looks) then I'll be happy

The original C&C and Red Alert (the first) were hands down my all time favourites, maybe Dune II battle for Arrakis too going way back. Limited spice, limited number of units on screen, there was actually some strategy required instead of spamming the enemy. Carryalls are sweet too.

But then Starcraft came along, excellent game, an instant classic for me. Current favourite for sure.

Total War series gets an honourable mention but due to the turn based parts of the game I don't think it qualifies for pure RTS status, good hybrid though.

Very much in agreement there. Damn fanboys.

Looking forward to Dead Space though, and I know it's on PC, 360 and PS3 so not an exclusive but that's my point - Love the games not the hardware, great games don't go obsolete as fast - if ever"

LMAO is that all the desperate hermgins have left to hype, Dead Space :D:D:D

Glad to help, but I'm just a lowly demi-god, though maybe in a few epochs I'll get there!
