Half Life and Half Life 2 are both really good.

Duke Nukem 3D is funny.

Lo Wang: Shadow Warrior is another FPS I like to pretend is the real Duke Nukem Forever, cause it's also made by 3D Realms and has very similar graphics/sense of humor.

Grim Fandango is supposed to be good.

There's a bunch more games I want to list, but unfortunately not many of them are PC exclusives (EG. Fallout 3, Batman Arkham Asylum, Halo, etc.)

Yeah, for sure. I've spent many childhood hours with that one. Honestly, Apogee were pretty much the gods of early 90s MSDOS gaming. I'll argue that with anyone.

Just as a fanboy I would have to throw up any Half Life game or any Elder Scrolls game.
Why did Kevin Flynn blare Journey so loud in his arcade? Was he trying to hear it from the grid?
