Alright, add your own to the list. I'm assuming almost everyone here has most of the C&C series, so they will not be on my list. Add them if you want.

1. Soul Calibur 2-Just awesome. Graphically amazing. Well-balanced. Hard for button-mashers to do severe damage. Once you get the joke weapons, Voldo uses tamborines.

2. Operation Flashpoint-One of the most (if not the most) realistic infantry simulators out there. Large area, great damage models, cool terrain and environment. Many vehicles are in thrown into the mix as well. Plus, you can download add-on vehicles like a shopping cart or jet-pack.

3. Call of Duty-Best WWII based FPS ever. Amazing scripted events and team movement. Sound effects are very intense. Plays like a History Channel special. It really boils down to the fact that you have a chance to hit a Nazi with the butt of your rifle.

4) GoldenEye 007 - One of the best FPS games in existance. Very difficult singleplayer and awesome multiplayer. Not the greatest graphically, but one hell of a party game.

5) StarCraft/Brood War - The single greatest RTS ever created. Great story, excellent single player, and thought provoking. Only the multiplayer beats single. Only trumped by its successor StarCraft 2.

No, it's damn near impossible to button-mash in that game.

Alright. Let me rephrase that.

Button-mashing is possible, but because of the blocking/GI system and the 8-Way Run system, it makes it so that any simp with half-a-clue of what he is doing can beat the unholy shit out of a button-mashing autard.

You were probably playing against people who had the motor-skills of a drugged-up chimp.

I will take you on any day of the week. Give me Ivy, and will stomp almost anyone's brains out.

*Cough* Perfect Dark *cough*
Goldeneye with more multiplay options, bots, etc.

Rogue Squadron 2: Rogue Leader
It's just plain sexeh.

Super Monkey Ball
Monkeys, in transparent balls. I was sold ;)
It's great to play with mates on the Gamecube, and it's even greater to play on your own or with mates on long journeys on the GBA.

How could you forget Fallout! That is a classic game. Fallout Tactics owned.
Natus 3.4

Corrupt program now requires constant reboots and does not function at all in majority of instances. Designed with a web browser component to replace AOL, it has exceeded our expectations by being more crashy and unreliable and with worse tech support. We didn't think it was physically possible! A general product recall is advised; when it does function it seems to require background processes Girl 0.1Beta to stave off further crashes. Will someone PLEASE remove that code, and insert Backbone 1.9 in its place? That's assuming we even bother to continue this prog.

Agreed. Nothing was quite as cool as watching one of your dudes move from cover to cover, and then throw a molotov cocktail on to some unexpecting jerks.

Yeah, but without GoldenEye, we never would have gotten Perfect Dark. I love that game too.

1 chess board with 1 decent opponent :yawn:

This program, though reasonably normal at times, seems to have a strong affinity to classes belonging to the Cat 2.0 program. Andre 2.7 will break down on occasion, resulting in garbage and nonsense messages whenever it occurs. Usually a hard reboot or pulling the plug solves the problem when that happens.
