    League of Legends. Every PC gamer I know plays it and it is 100% free but you can use real money to buy things. If anyone plays it, message me.

    I actually don't enjoy League of Legends, but you are right, it is probably the most popular PC game currently.

    Diablo 2
    Warcraft 1,2,3 and Starcraft
    Age of Empires 2

    Counter-Strike should also be on this list, but I couldn't really play due to slow internet...

    I played these a ton (this is more a nostalgia list than best games)
    Lemmings
    Commander Keen (specifically #4)
    Full Tilt! Pinball
    SkiFree
    Rodent's Revenge
    The Incredible Machine

    Myst was probably a great game, but it was immensely frustrating as a kid.

    The game I easily sunk the most time into was Guild Wars, but I wouldn't put that on a list of best games ever.

    I'll probably think of more soon.

    I have Heroes of Might and Magic 2 installed on this computer...

    I forgot about 7th Guest and 11th Hour, those were both great puzzle games.

    And a lot of the Sim type games were great when I was younger.

    I think the 11th hour is available on the Apple Store. I have the old HoM&M discs scattered throughout my place and my parent's place. I just checked online and you can download the games direct form ubisoft for $10.

    This is also a good site for 'Good Old Games': GOG.com

    LSL was good.

    Add SimCity, SimFarm, Colonization, Celtic Tales: Balor of the Evil Eye, CivII & III, and many more.


    Colonization and Celtic Tales: Balor of the Evil Eye are my tops that I still play today.
