Re: OT - your fav games
2 best games ever:
Counter-Strike (ive played this game constantly for 5 years without tiring of it)
Starcraft (really great game, no longer much fun because of the stupidity of the few people who still play it)

Lets not link to abandoneware sites.
If you liked Wizards Crown you might like Dungeon Oddyssey which is available here at shrapnelgames.com

Re: OT - your fav games
To twist the topic a little, here's some of the games I have the fondest memories from:
Racing game: Lotus (Amiga)
Sports Game: Speedball 2 (Amiga)
Beer and pretzels: Ports of Call (Amiga)
Arcade: Spy Hunter, Bubble Bobble or Uridium (can't choose - all on the C64)
RPG: Angband (Unix)
Hard to classify: Pirates (Amiga)
Beat em Up: Tekken III (Playstation)
Shoot-em-up: Dogs of War (Amiga) (Not a particularly good game, really, but a lot of fun to play cooperatively with a friend)
Space: Elite (C64)
Arcade-adventure: Ico (Playstation 2)
Strategy: Alpha Centauri (Linux)

Re: OT - your fav games
My personal top three:
Dom 2
I cant remember the Last time i spent so many hours playing one game
Dungeon Master
The superior role playing game. Even though I did not play it myself, I remember my father sitting in front of the amiga, my mother sitting next to him drawing maps, and me hiding behind the chair :-)
Warhammer Dark Omen:
I like everything about it: the story, the sounds of men fighting and mortar shells exploding, the neat 3d, simply everything.
Others:
FF4/6
Ogre Battle
Total Annihilation (Especially the ask the commander section on their homepage)
Star Control 2
Ufo 1
Internation Karate +
Nearly every Bitmap Brothers game (especially Speedball 2)
And many many more I already have forgotten but had lots of fun with :-)
