Tricky one, hmmm.....as far as strategy goes, Rome: Total War is my favorite. One game that really surprised me was Portal, a couple of years ago Valve actually gave it away for free to all Steam users IIRC and I'd heard it was good but man was that some of the most enjoyable 3,7 hours of my gaming life! One of the shortest PC games I've played but maybe the most concentrated amount of fun and fair challenge, great game! Haven't played Portal 2 yet though. SimCity 2000 is also an old favorite, had it on Mac back in the day, guess that counts since the Mac and PC versions were the same. Good thread BTW!

Id have to say i got 3 all time fav's...... Cannon Fodder... kill a guy, watch him jump 10 meters in the air lmao IL2 is my 2nd fav, up until cliffs, was the 2nd best flight sim ive ever played.... but number one for me has to goto warbirds absolutely loved the gameplay, i felt taking a fighter on a field capture mission was definitly a multirole mission.... mud move, escort and cap all in one run! I put in many years with that game, ran a squadron for several of them (some hectik guys in the squad), and have most of my best gaming memories from it

GhostRecon the original PC version

IL-2 Sturmovik: Cliffs of Dover.

Hmmm...

Going by most hours played, I reckon:

Darkest Hour
IL2
Combat Mission BB
Various Total Wars

For nostalgia:

Doom2
SimCity 2000

I know Deus Ex is "supposed" to be the best, but , like raaaid, I only stuck it for a couple of hours

FT, weve fought together for Germany (you used to reload my panzershrek and supplied me with ammo for the MG allot in public (totally not in a gay way way you homo's), a real team player) in RO: DH and against each other In IL2fb. I would certainly agree with you RO: DH and IL2 (as well as Silent Hunter III (with grey wolves mod III)) were truely excellant!

i never was much of a gamer neither on consoles nor on pc.i only came to flight sims, because of birds of prey on the xbox, and my fascination for planes since i was a kid.then because of birds of prey, i became aware of the dev updates of CLOD and the existence of 1946.so i saw this one video of "Storm of War" where you see the spitfire over the channel doing some loops, with the sunlit clouds in the background, the beautiful shadows in the pit, and the breaking waves on the channel a couple of thousands feet below the spit.the channel reflecting the sun perfectly, and all the nice shadows of clouds on it as well....i was like WAOH!i gonna have to buy this once this is out!this will be major!
so i decided to buy 1946 to prepare myself for the upcoming ultimate immersion of beeing a fighterpilot.went to the store, and bought it for 4,5Euros.best investement so far in my life i think. so for me, the best game so far is 1946.i wish CLOD will once substitute it though.

yeah i think the game i played the most in my life is the old il2

but it became boring when i found out the uberness of the 190 tactics

Best sim: rFactor. Best FPS: Half-Life 2.
