If I should try to pick from a broad spectrum of genres.

No one posted accompanying movies to explain what they like about it

Although I've played games for years, only a few for me (because of PC problems, I never finished any single player game, except Portal - maybe when I retire, which is sooo far away).

1. Star Trek Voyager: Elite Force
(Shameless pimp: I made this movie in 2003: Tribute to Elite Force - a short commercial may be in front of it. Unlike most movies, it features some classical music... and some D'n'B and Matrix music.

Tricks and frags.

I made the last map in the movie.

You won't believe how much time goes into making a movie like this: back in 2003, I needed 70 GB of space for the unedited footage, I used 187 A4 pages of notes to keep track of all the scenes, and it took almost half a year to complete it

[edit] The computer voice in this game is done by Majel Barrett, the same one who did all computer voices on Star Trek, she played Lwaxana Troi and was married to Gene Roddenberry [/edit]).

2. Quake 3
(Too many great movies to choose from - one of the latest is a trick movie, it won't make much sense to people not familiar with it, but this movie is just sheer beauty after about 12.40: f33l by KOS, featuring w3sp. He makes it looks so easy, but it took him several months to 'land' this sequence, and he's an accomplished tricker: same as in their last movie, there are only worldrecords here. The map is the same as in the outros of 'the badge 3' and '[ Lyon connection').

3. Quake Live
(It's free! http://www.quakelive.com/)

4. Portal.
It was very refreshing, though a bit short.

Best games for PC (not in order):
1. Sid Meier's Civilizations.
2. Any Serious Sam in Co-Op
3. Quake II
4. F.E.A.R.
5. Oblivion + Expansions
6. DOOM's
7. Duke Nuke 'Em
8. Wolfenstein's
9. Red-Alert
10. C&C General's + Expansion
11. PainKiller + Expansion

1. Civlization 1-4
2. Day of the Tentacle
3. System Shock
4. Deus Ex
5. Master of Orion 2

The Civilization series and Master of Orion 2 (MOO2) are classic round-based strategy games. And they are the best of the genre.
Day of the Teantacle is an old Lucas Arts Advendture with the best humor of any adventure game.
System Shock and Deus Ex are FPS Single Player games WITH a story and RPG elements.
There aren't many single player FPS games with a good story and interesting gameplay anymore, although Bioshock wasn't half bad.

UT2004 (I did like UT3 too, unlike many people)
Simutrans
Sim City 2000
X3 Reunion (never got to play Terran Conflict - hopefully when I have a bit of a break from study).
Baldur's Gate II
Track Mania series

I was wondering if MoO2 would ever make its waiy into this topic. That and Civ 1 are the two games I've played the most. That doesn't say very much by itself, but I've been a raiding WoW-player for several years:)

Other highlights are the 2 Diablos, of course, as well as starcraft.

Gosh, I almost feel like a Blizzard fan boy. Lucky my two top spots arn't Blizzard:D

Civ 1 or 2
Doom 1 or 2
Diablo 2
Heretic
Red Baron 1 (old school game)

Age of Empires II: The Conquerors
Spider-Man Cartoon Maker
Midtown Madness 2
The Sims series
G-NOME

There are a lot of other games I would consider favorites too. I tried Civilization III before, but never really liked it much.

TTD

Total Annihilation
Elite (the original version Virginia)
UT2004
Starship Command
Sim City

Yeah I know two of those aren't PC games, but the PC isn't the be-all-and-end-all of personal computing!

tetris

In no particular order:

1. FarCry (from level 12 onwards I could not proceed without cheating)
2. Crysis (have only started the game, still needs to be finished)
3. Quake Wars - Enemy Territory (fast paced)
4. Call of Duty 4 (I'm so waiting for Modern Warfare 2)
5. Battlefield Series (you've notice - I'm a FPS fan)

Only recently I discovered Mirror's Edge
Incredible how creative software developers can be.

Including console:

Final Fantasy IV (2 US)
Orion 2
Sim City 2000
Secret of Monkey Island
Civ 2

Honourable mentions: Red alert 2, Dawn of War, Total War series, Chrono Trigger

It's very difficult to narrow down a list to just 5 when you started playing games in the mid 80s...

This is my list of most frequently played games over the years:

1) Where in the World is Carmen Sandiego? (Apple II)
2) Street Rod (C64)
3) Prince of Persia [original 1990] (PC)
4) Alone in the Dark [original 1992] (PC)
5) Warcraft 2 (PC)

Bonus non PC game:

Street Fighter 2 (SNES)

There were so many that I could have listed but I found the above to be the ones I either enjoyed going back to time and time again, or frustrated me so much that I had to keep on playing over and over again

8-player Warcraft 2 was particularly fun back in the day. Although setting up the 8 full sized towers and CRT monitors in the one house and then connecting them through a 10BASE2 coax network over IPX was never easy. There would always be someone that wouldn't be able to see any other PCs over the network while the rest were fine. It didn't matter how many different terminators were tried or cables were replaced or cards were changed over, it always happened this way.

Looking back now, I'm surprised we ever got it working at all...

edit: indicate original release from remakes. edit2: realise I stopped enjoying games sometime during the 90s

World of Warcraft (Vanilla)
Age of Empires II
Diablo II
UT2004
Everquest (EverCrack for real!)

Starcraft
Neverwinter Nights
Oblivion
Warcraft 2
Civilization 2 or 4

in no particular order...

civ2 or civ4

the secret of monkey island SPECIAL EDITION!

- strike commander (same vein as wing commander, but on earth, with F- 16s and stuff)
- dino park tycoon

5. Civ 3

However in terms of my favourite games id shuffle things around a bit.

3. Gran Turismo 4 - Best Racing game, i like a billion cars, tracks and upgrades.
4. UT2K4 - Great single player and multiplayer balance.
5. COD4 - Great graphics, story, multiplayer.
