Don't really have a top ten or an order for that matter, but some real favorites so here it goes:

Halflife: Could be my alltime favorite game (even though I said I didn't have one :P ). Mods and MP are nice but I'm talking about the singleplayer. Revolutionary in every way. Insane graphics when it came out, even high end now with the HD pack. First FPS to actually have a good and involved storyline. Some of the coolest sequences ever, with the music and the marines creepy radio chatter combined with the intensity of those weapons made for a memorable experience. Frightening AI, the marines weren't stupid and the aliens all acted differently. On top of that, cool storyline, COMPLETELY first person (no cutscenes) and that gaunt looking G-Man always leaving you to wonder. The ending made you tear your hair out but it was all worth it. Expansions were good too, Opposing Force was very well done, almost a completely new game. And if you like the game like I do then Blue Shift was just icing. Its been five years and now halflife 2 is coming around, I cant wait!

Diablo and Diablo 2: Gorgeous graphics (hey not 3D but I think very artistically beautiful), engaging storyline, fabulous locations and some real interesting gameplay the first time around. Character customization never gets old, and each time your characters are different, I will never get sick of this. Some of the best cutscenes ever. Only drawback? Mob of random fools on b.net ruining our play experience with their 1337ness and ha><0ring...

Warcraft II: Pure fun, one of the first "real" games I played. Gotta love amasssing a huge army and then just laying waste to everything in sight. Plus good units and pretty good balance, I prefer SP.

Freelancer: Current obsession. Massive realistic world, huge variety of ships. Good servers on MP are monitored so the script kiddies and 12 year olds get banned quickly heh. Beautiful graphics and an engaging SP along are what make this so appealing. The universe lives, reacts and responds to what you do and in MP it only gets more complex. Great game, even though I admit it could've been better.

Jedi Knight 2: Jedi Outcast: Coolest combat ever, incredible looking lightsaber (stared at it for a long time). Force speed just topped it all off. Flipping, pushing, hacking etc etc all in a completely classic star wars location. You feel like you are part of a STAR WARS movie, unbeatable.

Doom (1, 2, 2tnt and plutonia etc or is that final doom, too many! :D ): First game I ever played, borrowed discs from a friend and had a lot of fun until my parents thought it was too violent and took it away :blink: ...

and last:
Soldier of Fortune II: Double Helix: This is the most intense shooter I have ever played. Nothing really beats the "visceral punch" of unloading your M4A2 carbine into some scumbag terrorist. The weapons are intense and seem very real and powerful. Add to that the most realistic gore and some cool environments and this becomes a very memorable game. Besides, what beats an FPS but an FPS where the people actually look like they were shot!. Multiplayer is fun too, kind of like an upgraded counterstrike.

Honorable Mention: Did anyone play "Chex Quest"? :ph34r:
