Poll: What’s your all-time favorite PC game?

For the past couple of weeks, I’ve been spending like 4 to 6 hours on average everyday playing a couple of PC games. I only stick to one or two games though so I don’t think I’m a heavy gamer.

Last night, while playing DOTA, I realized I’ve been addicted to this game since 1996 when I first discovered it. That’s 15 years of playing Warcraft.

So I thought I’d ask my readers what their all-time favorite game. Mine if obviously Warcraft (Diablo next, then Starcraft and Civilization).

Go hit the comments and share your fave PC game too.

  1. Loves playing COMMAND & CONQUER (1st)! NBA Live 96 (2nd), and Starcraft (3rd)!


  2. My pick for all-time is Heroes of Might and Magic 3


  3. King of Fighters series! KOF + Arcade emulator + Joypad = happiness!


  4. PC
    1st – Neverwinter Nights
    2nd – Diablo & Diablo 2
    3rd – Half-Life,Quake and Counter-Strike

    PS
    1st – Chrono Cross
    2nd – Front Mission 3
    3rd – Marvel vs. Capcom

    ^___^ LAOlz!


  5. I am for Counter Strike. Since 1996 and up to present, this LAN game never fades.


    • In addition, Medal of Honor a playstation 1 game that starts and popularizes 3rd person shooter games I know today.


  6. Sports: NBA 2K series, Madden NFL

    FPS: CoD

    RTS: Red Alert 2.

    RPG: Diablo 2

    Casual: Roller Coaster Tycoon


  7. My first real RTS game was also Warcraft. But as my favorite — the game that I spend most of my useful time with would be the Total War series. I started with Medieval Total War and until now I’m playing Napoleon and Shogun II. What appeals to me is the history and alternative possibilities to it. There’s also depth — assassinations, sabotage, alliances, betrayals, etc. The game also demands that you play it for a long time. One campaign lasts me almost two months. It’s not a game for impatient teens. It’s a real strategic gaming experience — for those of us who daydream of world domination while riding the FX shuttle everyday.


    • Based on categories, my favorite PC games would be:

      RPG – Elder Scrolls (Morrowind, Oblivion)
      FPS – Quake Arena, unreal tournament, Red Faction
      RTS – Starcraft 2, Red Alert
      Adventure – Bloodrayne, Freedom Fighter, GTA series
      Combat – Call of Duty: modern Warfare 2


    • Aba putangeena mo, anong pakialam namin sa mga kabaklaan mong linalaro

      Sa susunod uupakan kita ng keyboard para mabihasa ka na naman sa mani


    • HOY PUTANG INA MONG JHAY KANTUTIN MO NALANG LOLA MO! BAKLA!

    +

  10. Need For Speed series, Final Fantasy Series, Assassin’s Creed Series, Red Alert 2


    • Forgot to mention an online game that I have been playing since 2007. It’s called Ikariam. Dun ako unang nakilala bilang Pusang Kulog. Played on the international Ny server, Alpha Philippine Server (which is now closed) and US Ny Server on which I am currently playing.


  11. Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare
    Treasure Math Storm (i was crazy about this game when i was in elementary Grade 3 ako 1995 or 1996 ata)


  12. Cosmic Break, doon puwede gumawa nang Anime at Mecha characters doon.


  13. Counter Strike,Warcraft,Dune,Civilizations, Red Alert and Star Craft All are PC Classics… This Blog makes me feel nostalgic haha ^_^


  14. First person shooters: Call of Duty, Wolfenstein, Doom, Quake and Medal of Honor…

    Real time strategies: Dune, Command and Conquer (including Red Alert and Generals plus their expansion packs), Dawn of War 1 and 2 (including their stand alone expansion packs)

    Puzzle: Monkey Island, Sam and Max, Incredible Machine series, Lemmings

    Sports: NBA Live and NHL

    Racing: Need For Speed series


  15. since when ka pa nagdodota? lam ko nun warcraft lang tayo ah. iba’t ibang klaseng tower defense.


    • @calvin – since this year lang ang DOTA ko. did not liked it before but now favorite ko na.


  16. I forgot… Starcraft 1 and 2 with their expansions… Diablo 1 and 2 for RPG… and some online games like Cosmicbreak, Blackshot, RAN online, Ragnarok online and Freestyle Online Street Basketball…


  17. When computers were slow, strategy games were the best: Civilization, Xcom-Enemy Unknown, Panzer General. When computers became faster, real-time strategy and first-person shooters were the best: C&C, Starcraft/Warcraft, CounterStrike. When DSL became available, World of Warcraft was the best. But for me, the game that made the most impact was Deus Ex because it was so immersive and had a good story. I don’t play real-time strategy games nowadays because younger kids have better multitasking capabilities (higher APM) and will beat slower, older players (V_V)


  18. in stone age i used to play Counter strike ,Red alert. and latest was DIRT3 AND MEDAL OF HONOR 2010.


  19. How the heck that Valve games aren’t here? They have the best PC games in my opinion.


    • yeah counter strike! it’s my all time favorite, i still play it sometimes. first time i played that game was when it was still in beta, beta 5.1 i think


    • yeah counter strike! it’s my all time favorite, i still play it sometimes hindi yan nawawala sa mga installed games ko kahit may bago ako. first time i played that game was when it was still in beta, beta 5.1 i think.


  20. warcraft na ka iinstall ko lang. maganda kc mga kung ano ano tower.


  21. Sa Red Alert at Counter Strike ako nagsimula. I dig RTS and First Person shooters (MOH, COD), pero frankly speaking, hindi bumenta sakin yung DOTA (although I tried my best to “like” it haha, para makasama ako sa mga LAN games ng tropa nung college, sawa na sila sa CS e :D)
    Recently, I dig COD Modern Warfare, yung online multiplayer mode; nakakatuwa ung pag may kalaro kang totoong tao, tas may sense of “teamwork” na nangyayari sa game (although some don’t want to cooperate, mga lone wolves kumbaga :D)
    Nga pla, I play in the “Athos Domination” Server (Domination), Fox04 ang name ko. mga weekends ako naglalaro depende sa sched :D Modern Warfare 1 ung nilalaro ko, hindi yung Modern Warfare 2 haha :D Or maganda, tell me your servers that you usually play on, I’ll check it out :D


  22. Gothic I, II & III buggy nga lang…
    Fallout Series… except yung pinaka bago…


  23. The SIMS series is very much dynamic and improving!


  24. first would be, DOTA
    second, Red Alert (from Red Alert 2 to RA3 Uprising)
    last would be Diablo II and expansions.

    I almost forgot, I played MU Online Philippines since 2004? can remember, but that the time when there are servers Maya, Bahr and Wiggle :)


    • same here:

      DOTA – dti played until 5am tps work in 8am LOL
      – bad for health, bad for career,. ha3,.

      Red Alert -plyed 7am-3pm w/o lunch //school 5pm
      – bad for studies,.he3,.

      Starcraft – played while making school yerbok.,
      – no output. ha3,.

      conclusion: games have no positive effect., ha3
      however, i’l kep playin,.LoL


  25. Used to be a hardcore PC gamer.

    My all time favorite game is Lineage 2 (L2Extreme privy server)

    Now, I just play Heroes of Newerth and DotA.

    I wanna learn how to play Leage of Legends (LOL) :D


  26. I’m an old-school gamer who was hooked on PC gaming during the ’90s. Which meant being hooked on Dune, Civilization, Colonization, Master of Orion. Then came Diablo and Diablo II, WarCraft, the CnC series (excepting Generals and the fourth installment), and — of course! — StarCraft. Lately I got to try out CnC 3, Red Alert 3, and StarCraft 2. Never got around to trying out MMORPGs, I guess I’m a little too wizened and old for them.


  27. Fallout Series
    Bioshock Series
    Dragon Age Series

    These games made me download the fake version at first,
    Then made me purchased original without opening them for collection.

    They are just epic


  28. Starcraft Series

    Battlefield/DICE Games

    COD 4

    Dota.

    Right now would be DICE and Starcraft.

    Cant wait for BF3 :D

    Although right now PS3 games :D


  29. All-time favourite would be Half-life 1/Team Fortress/Counter-strike 1.6. I can still find good playmates over steam on this :)


  30. command and conquer generals zero hour + its mods like contra007.


  31. kane’s wrath

    left for dead 2

    sim city rush hour

    RF Online – Allods PH –


  32. My favorite/most memorable PC game of all time…hard decision to make, so many choices. Top spot still has to be Ultima VII: The Black Gate.

    Hardcore, old school RPG player over here so my top ten is actually filled with games from the same genre/era. Martian Dreams, Savage Empire, Might & Magic IV & V, etc. Oh, add in Tropico, Master of Magic, Mechwarrior 4: Mercenaries and SimCity 2000 :P.
