Half-Life got my really serious into games, and i still love it. Planescape:Torment is really awesome as well, though my playing of it was put on hold when i realized i still had SOOOOO much game left. maybe i should dig it out....

Oh yeah, almost forgot - Half-Life, of course! I used to play it on my 21'' monitor at midnight when all the lights were out and the atmosphere was terrifying!!! When those "ceiling sucking-up things" got me totally unexpectedly, I had to turn the game off and breathe a bit because my heart rate was somewhere in 200's even.

There's some interesting games being mentioned here...

I must say Ultima 7 and Serpent Isle have to be right up there... nothing since has come close!

Fallout was also an amazing RPG.

And does anyone remember the Ecstatica series? I used to scare myself witless playing those games!
good games of the moment:

Counterstrike
Planescape: Torment
Tribes 2
Deus Ex

and Metal Gear Solid was a classic.

Warning about Tribes 2: I just bought the game yesterday, and can't play online because it says my CD-key has already been registered! some lamer must have used a keygen or something. I have emailed sierra letting them know just how unhappy I am...
just a warning for anyone who might consider buying it.

chances are greater that your copy was a return... its happened to a bunch of people already.

if you can hunt down their number, call them. in similar cases, they've been more than willing to set people up with new cd keys.

I just played black and white for the first time, and it is a pretty cool game. I like playing it alot. I also thought that populus the beginning was a pretty good game, and same with all the command and conquer games.
