I have not kept up with gaming much for the past decade, so my list is going to be very dated. In no particular order:
- Starsiege: Tribes (Tribes 2 gets an honorable mention)
- EarthSiege 2
- EverQuest (very begrudgingly, but it did kick the era of MMORPGs into overdrive, and I was addicted to it for almost a decade)
- Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic
- Mass Effect Legendary Edition (I'm counting the trilogy as a single game)
- X-Wing Vs. Tie Fighter
- Open Transport Tycoon Deluxe
- Cities: Skylines
- Star Trek Online (only because of storylines)
- Battlefield 1942
No console games on my list, because PCMR! :P
[Edit] Almost forgot Star Control 2!
I have a whole separate list for arcade games.
- Mortal Kombat (including only 1, 2, and 3. Hated 4 with a passion.)
- Virtua Fighter 2
- Killer Instinct 1 and 2
- Marvel Vs. Capcom
- Super Street Fighter II Turbo
- X-Men (1992 side scroller)
- NBA Jam
- Tekken 3
- Daytona USA (really reaching here)
- Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Turtles in Time (struggling to get the list to 10)
In no particular order:
- Wing Commander: Privateer
- Rim World
- Kotor + Kotor 2
- Any first person Elder Scrolls Game
- Europa Universalis games
- Portal + Portal 2
- Cyberpunk 2077
- Elite Dangerous
- Eve Online
- Dwarf Fortress

Tic tak toe,
Solitaire,
Snek,
That one with the bubbles that you just watch and you canβt do anything (I think it actually a screen saver)
Uh. Thatβs it.
Once again in no particular order: Ultimata IV - Quest of the Avatar
Sim City 2000
The Last of Us
Breath of the Wild
Trade Wars
Kingdom Hearts
Knights of the Old Republic
Civ 6
Omega - a dos game where you programmed Tanks and set them loose
And right now: Balatro
I'm probably a little biased but... (I'll also include my fave music track from each game as a little bonus!)

Tekken 3
Raiden rtype
Diablo
Unreal Tournament
Blakestone
Alien vs predator
Ultimate Doom
Team fortress 2
Overwatch 1 R.I.P
Battlefront 2
Boom Blocks - Wii - top of my list. Not because it's a good game, but because my kids and I had uproarious hours spent playing it together.
Video game I have not yet figured out the name of. It came out in 1986(ish?) and it had a robot/cyborg in a kind of metroidvania level set. Macintosh.
Doom, the original. Scared the PISS out of me. Then I played it hardcore after that. Doom II came out and I set up LAN parties and opened up my nascent IT outsourcing business for those.
Helldivers 2 - Honestly, I haven't actually engaged with a game this hard for decades.
Senua's Sacrifice - This game helped me considerably, in understanding the people I love.
Doom 2016 - What's not to like. It's perfect.
Starcraft II - When it came out. Excellent weaving of story and gameplay.
HI-FI Rush - Unexpected fun.
Zork - I would have never expected this level of amazing story telling this many years ago.
I know I am short of 10, but I can't think of anything else.
Hylics 1/2
Half Life 1
Myst
Jet Set Radio Future
Bomb Rush Cyberfunk
Factorio
Doom II (heavily modded)
OpenRCT2
Voices of the Void
The Sims (I like the series as a whole, I feel like each game has its own pros and cons)
Elden ring
Borderlands 2
Pokemon emerald
Fallout 4
Monster Hunter world
Chivalry II
Gears of war 2
PUBG
Escape from Tarkov
Call of duty: World at war
Roughly in that order
