[Caid Ivik]

So, the best ones?

1.  Dune II: Battle for Arrakis

This game really brought most to gaming community. Fully new system, which even now can't be replaced. And also the highest stage of MIDI music. Alternatives could be Wolfenstein 3D, Pong or Civilization, but compare them with Dune II: which was better breaktrough?

2.  Command & Conquer 2: Tiberian Sun

Strategy, which has closed one era. It was a game, which mixed all good elements of all 2D RTSs before and thus opened way for 3D ones. Of which however, no one was yet better. Alternatives are Total Annihilation and StarCraft. Tiberian Sun was chosen due to fact most elements were greatly better than it those (balance, story, modificability...)

3.  Final Fantasy VIII

King of role playing games. FF had a long history on consoles, but when it came to PC platform it faced only few pathetical weaklings based on Tolkien's fantasy doctrine. And see its graphics, story, playability: I intended to put here Baldur's Gate, but when I compare it to FF8 I simply can't.

4.  Freespace: Great War

Freespace was a perfect simulation, we can say like TS it mixed mostly older things and led it into perfection. Volition really knew how to make a cult game and scenes like fall of Galatea are deeply in our hearts... We can say that other such were Flanker 2.0, Freelancer and F-19 Stealth Fighter.

5.  Doom

Descendant of Wolfenstein 3D, Doom is known to everyone, even those who never played it. It's not a big thing of gaming, but of whole culture. Cynical look on evil which is here only to be eradicated. And a great fun for many hours... No alternatives.

6.  MechCommander 1/2

Perfect RPG-strategy, chosen mostly because of elemental differences compared to other such games. When we compare first to second part, we see flaws and pros balanced, so I put both. However, similar games like Sacrifice, Commandos, UFO/XCom series or WarCraft III aren't comparable to any of them.

7.  Master of Orion series

Of TBSs is best this one. It's over Civilization because the system of game is more realistical and researching Stellar Convertor is much more interesting than ie Ceremonial Burial. But in fact such games are mostly all the same. Another alternative could be Total War or Imperium Galactica series, altough these have flawed research. However in fights they are even better than MoO.

8.  Sonic & Knuckles 3

Of jumping games we can't have better. Tale of Sonic is nearly as legendary as that of Jesus, so I don't think it has to be described. But it was a show that 2D jumpers are far before "modern" 3D ones. No alternatives.

9.  Unreal Tournament

Perfection piece of shooting games. No comments needed. Alternatives should be Liero, Quake 3, Counterstrike or Return to Castle Wolfenstein. Maybe also Diablo II. Why they aren't better we all can see after few hours of playing. Altough the difference isn't big.

10. Gabriel Knight

Best of adventures. Rather hard logics, but not as it would be painful like in some others. And not as easy as in most RPGs. No alternatives, this one is the only worthy to be here.

[TMA_1]

1: Vampire: THe Masquerade, Redemption

2: Star Wars Tie Fighter

3: Darklands

4: Stunts

5: Pirates

6: Ultima

7: Civilization

8: Wolfenstein

9: Duke Nukem 3d (come on, its the best.lol)

10: Metal Gear Solid (yeah it's originally playstation, had to add it somewhere.lol)

[DukeLeto]

In no order:

Tie Fighter - Best Flight combat sim EVER

Red Alert - Best RTS game EVER

StarCraft - A close second to RA

DOOM - Made the shooter genre famous...

Duke3D - ...and brought it down to earth.

Emperor - Pioneered the way for modern full-3D RTS games

Tiberian Sun - The last great 2D RTS game

Elite Force - Still just a plain great game, and it heralded the way for the modern FPS.

Delta Force - The difinitive "Tactical shooter"

Renegade - Vehicles?  Purchasing upgrades?  It had all been done before, but Renegade brought them together with a unique touch

But ten is such a limiting number. :-  So many other greats left out: Blood, Homeworld, Dark Forces...
