THANK YOU!

I was going to be pretty upset if no one gave a shout out to Star Control 2.
Best game evar!

Dune 2 was pretty dang good, too.

I liked Betrayal At Krondor as well.

Tasty props to Warcraft 2, Starcraft, Quake 2, old Sierra titles. . .

#5: Max Payne
#4: Medal of Honor: AA (when is the expansion for this coming out)
#3: Need for Speed: Porsche Unleashed (played the hell out of this game, although I finally got bored and stopped trying to own every Porsche ever made)
#2: EA's NHL series, particularly NHL 95. I must have that game for 3-4 years on my first computer, a 486.
#1: Deus Ex (this is despite the fact that I never finished it- I got to the last level, only to realise that I had very limited ammo and no previous saves. Saw my brother finish it, and decided it wasn't worth the aggravation of trying to sneak everywhere. I was playing strictly run and gun, and didn't have anything in stealth attributes)

Honorable mention
-SimCity 2000
-Freedom Force
-Rainbow Six
