That game was fun... I /think/ my all time favorite would have to be Blood though... Wolf was fun too.

Gorillas.

And they wonder how I can throw things to a zodiac 50 feet from the ship and NEVER land in the water. ;)

If I had to narrow it down to ONE I would probably have to pick MechWarrior II; I still would put that in my top 5 of all time.

My honerable mentions would go to: Might & Magic III, Ultima VI, Duke Nukem 3D, Command & Conquer, Doom, Wing Commander series, X-Wing/Tie Fighter, Front Page Sports Football, Mike Ditka's Ultimate Football, and any old Sierra or Lucasarts adventure games.

hell yeah!

I remember that one guided missle you could shoot that would blow through the walls of the ufo. You'd send one in to blow the wall, then another right behind it to nuke the aliens in the ship. I still remember the little scream the aliens would make when you killed them.
