Difficult to name all the good ones, but I'll try, in no particular order:

-Age of Empires 2: The Conquerors Almost as good as the original, with some additions, of course this is an strategy game.
-Baldurs Gate II Shadows of Amn Better graphics than the original, but sometimes there is too much talk in the action.
-Black&White Very cool, but you need a lot of time to teach your creature good manners.
-Diablo II Lots of enemies and items to collect, if you play online be careful with your password, there is more trading of values online in this game than in Wall Street.
-Homeworld Cataclysm An spaceship war, you need to read the manual to master the game
-Janes F/A-18 Almost as good as Phantom 4, but with some more detailed graphics, landing in those carriers is not easy.
-Max Payne Good graphics and action, but the Artificial Intelligence in the game is not Intelligent at all sometimes.
-Nascar Racing 4 Very good graphics but you need a fast computer and a top of the line video card.
-Need For Speed Porsche Unleashed This is my favorite race game, graphics and physics are very very good.
-Star Trek Voyager:Elite Force A miracle has happened a Star Trek game that is any good.

In my Opinion the game that started their respective genres: Half Life anf Thief. they are used as guidelines for all future games in their category.

Right now I'd say Deer Hunter 5. I may even get the new video card so I can enjoy all the features, something the action games couldn't get me to do.

Personally I think one of the game companies should release an Age of Empires type of game called "The Modern Crusades" and set Sept.11 and the starting point. I bet that would be game of the year in a matter of weeks!

There's more buttons on a keyboard than PS controller. Unless they are making keyboards and mice for Playstations now there are more choices with a PC game. Some PC games can't be ported over because the consoles don't have enough buttons on their controllers.

According to the box:

P2 400 MHZ
Open GL Support
3D Card with 16 MB RAM
CPU min 128 megs RAM
16 or higher color video mode
800 MB compressed HD space for game install plus 300megs swap file.
Directx8.0 or higher.

I run on 500 MHZ with Voodoo5 64MB video card. Having problems. Game plays OK but slow and as a result I get killed a lot. Not my skill just the CPU fault. Textures on my CPU are adjusted by the game and not great. Will get my new unit on Wednesday and should rock.

Single player is great, at least I like it. Vey graphic intensive. Great background sound and the Nazis are menacing. AI is fairly intelligent. Great variety of weapons. Mutiplayer is solid and good fun. May fave game after Half Life. Not too complicated and doesn't strain my meagre intellect.

Expensive at $74 CDN.
