No One Lives Forever 2
Red Faction
Serious Sam: The First Encounter
Serious Sam: The Second Encounter

Yeah, making tunnels was fun, but my favorite thing to do has always been sticking the remote charges on enemies (and sometimes friendlies just for kicks :twisted: ) and watching them run around flailing their arms and screaming like a maniac. It's so comical the way they sound and run around, like something you'd see in slapstick, I can never stop laughing. I love how the game gives just about all different NPC's their own screams, too. XD

The Jedi Knight games are really good I loved them, especially Jedi Knight II.

Don't become a PC gamer. You will lose any life you might have known. It's not too late to change your mind. ;D

Deus Ex, System Shock 2.
