    Personally, I would say Star Wars, Revenge of the Sith. Also, Morrowind Oblivion. Also: Neverwinter Nights 1 and 2. Also: Dragonage Origins.

    And I can't forget the Baldour's Gate series, 1 and 2.

    I was still sorta surprised to see Half (The Original) as Counterstrike. I still play Counterstike atleast once a week. Thing I loved about HalfLife...was that once you got the game you could dnload a ton of mods. I currently still play:
    Counterstrike, Day of Defeat (Reg & Source), Teamfortress. Thank you Valve for making one of the greatest games in history...HALFLIFE!

    The list is wrong. It surveyed gamers online and the greatest video games of all time were around before there were online options. Pac-man, Super Mario Bros., and surprised not to see Street Fighter on top of the list.
