Ok, the 10 games that I like the most, with an explanation. And this is in no particular order. Many of them I still play form time to time .
1. PS:T, Absolutely top of all RPG, or what the soft-ware industry calls RPG, I ever played. I still get shivers when I play Ravels Maze, and when I meet Deionarra in the fortress of regrets.
2. Deja-vu, An old, old game. Really like a text adventure with illustrations, played it a lot on an old Mac2 (without hard disk). The mac was bought for helping out at university. Most expensive typewriter/game player I ever bought.
3. Duel, First computer game I ever played at a PC, at the time you had to tweak your autoexec and config.sys to get more primary memory, fun times indeed. It's a car racing game, by the way.
4. Fallout, The original and, for me, the best in the fallout series.
5. Fallout 2, To many lame references (Monthy python anyone?). But still one of the best games ever. It seems like the designers did not speak together. Compare Klamath to New Reno? It was like these areas were picked from two different games.
6. Arcanum, Sometimes confusing but some really good moments in that game
7. Baldurs gate 1, When it was released, I loved it. 'nuff said.
8. Baldur's gate 2, I loved this game, but I really don't know why? With the expansion you could play for weeks, and all you did was doing the same stuff over and over again, specially when it came to combat. So why did I love it? I honestly do not know, but I still play it now and then.
9. Civ 2, I liked CIV1 and loved civ2, I sometimes started to play in the afternoon/evening at work and "one more turn" later I found that it was morning and I had to start work in 30 minutes. Kind of made travel to work easy
10. Alpha Centauri, Very good TBS. High learning curve though, and can be very frustrating and tedious at the end.
