Here's my top ten then, based on how awed I was on playing them for the first time. I wish I could say there were some of the old Speccy or C64 classics here, but gaming just keeps getting better.
So, in no particular order...
Cannon Fodder (Amiga). Original, funny, simple and fun. Pure gaming genius.
Syndicate (Amiga). Dark, compelling and ultra-violent.
Half Life. FPSs come and go, but Half Life stands out by never being boring or repetetive.
GTA: Vice City. Flawless arcade gameplay and excellent soundtrack.
Doom. The first game to ever have my pulse racing as I peeked around corners.
Duke Nukem 3D. The best multiplayer FPS of its time.
Speedball 2 (Amiga). Frantic, violent multiplayer fun. "Ice Cream!"
Diablo. Simple but compelling. I hardly slept playing this game.
Alien Vs Predator. Heart stopping and atmospheric. Sphincter twitching stuff.
Civilization. Time distorts when playing this game. I lost half my college years to it.
Cheers
