All my games are on the PC.

1. Oblivion
Because it's the best RPG ever made this side of the galaxy. I could spend endless hours in this, and I still do. MODS FTW.

2. C&C: Red Alert 2
This, to me, was probably the most addictive in the RA series, even more so than other games like Starcraft. It had the fast-paced action of army battles mixed in with a tad bit of micromanagement.

3. Battlezone (1998 remake)
A totally awesome remake of the arcade game (referenced in the intro). The game's basic story is a twist in the Cold War's Space Race, only that the USA and the USSR both have militaries capable of space-flight, and the mix of FPS/RTS makes for extremely tense combat. Really hectic when you're trying to shoot, manage your troops, and your base all at the same time.

4. Dungeon Siege 2
I'll say right now it's a lot like most action H&S RPGs, only that you can have a party.

5. Half-Life (series)
Headcrabs. 'Nuff said.

6. Sins of a Solar Empire
The most incredible space-fleet game ever made. Just watch out when they rush your systems with 56 Siege Frigates and ruins your entire economy and decimates your military.

7. Warhammer 40,000: Dawn of War
Relic Entertainment made this incredible RTS gem. It took the gritty universe of WH40K and made it into an RTS, and also eliminated the old RTS formula of single units and static resources. Wildly popular RTS now, and the sequel just came out yesterday (also eliminated another RTS formula by getting rid of base-building).

8. Morrowind

I loved this game, after I got it after Oblivion. The world is much larger and much more fun to explore since there's not fast travel. But, alas, the static NPCs and the bland world just sort of made me bored of it.

9. Audiosurf
A music rhythm game which involves you hitting blocks on a track made to the rhythm of your music. It's awesome and extremely addictive. TRY IT. NOW.

10. Star Wars: Republic Commando
The only SW game in the entire series to get down, dirty, and gritty. Definitely worth a try.
