Hmm... I'm not old enough to have been exposed to the oldest stuff, but some of the games that left an impression on me (in the order I discovered and played them, excluding ones still popular today) are:
Mechwarrior 2 and Mercs
Goldeneye 007
Unreal
Perfect Dark
Homeworld
Do you remember many of these? Surely everyone here remembers hearing about Goldeneye... In addition to the legends we still play like StarCraft, these drew the player into a twisted story as Halo did. It makes me wish I had a Mac when Marathon was around... or some money to buy games. Most of the few games I've had came from bargain bins, bundled with other stuff, or as gifts. I don't often have the newest thing, but I don't often have the new hype-inflated stuff suffering "sequelitis" either. (certainly not to imply that Halo 2 will be!)
