Top 10 Best PC Games of All Time
I played this game over and over throughout the years, and it gets better each time! At first, I thought that Episode 1 and 2 were better than the original game, but after replays, everything in the original game got better and better.
The gameplay is unique and adds so much to the FPS game genre as a whole. Half-Life 1 is actually the true legend for PC that added lots to the genre, but this is the game of my generation, so here is my vote.
This game was an instant classic. I hate to be a nerd and video game historian, but this game was and is still revolutionary. I still can't believe a game of this scale exists.
Its physics engine causes things to break and slice realistically, it has an amazing plot, the characters are well-developed, and there is an enormous variety of guns and weapons you can use.
The most creative game of all time. A person made a universal death clock out of it. And you can blow stuff up. Who in the world does not want to blow things up?
Do you want more? Then get mods which make it easier or more fun to play, like getting more bombs!
This game was made by a single man who has become a millionaire off selling copies of the game. He even has his own autobiography, and there are conventions devoted entirely to the game.
Minecraft is boss. Over 11 million people play it, which is around 1 out of 600 people. It's insane. If any of you viewers have Minecraft, like me, my name on it is Danomite409.
A really good 1.7.4 server is minecraftia.net. The owner is Willbbz. If you ever see him on it, thanks for reading!
A well-developed game in all respects. The graphics, movies, and all the elements of the game are well-rounded.
No matter what you say, hitting 11 million subscribers paying $15 a month is no small feat.
This is not only the best PC game but the best RPG EVER! (excluding Fallout 3 for the Xbox only)
It's definitely the best game that I have ever played. Better than real life. You can do whatever you want, wherever you want. And it even has a cool story, especially San Andreas.
I have never played The Afterlife, so I just can't say anything about it.
The Sims 2, really? You're kidding me. Not even kids play this worthless game these days. Grand Theft Auto should be on top, man.
Gaming is all about the things you can't do in real life. Grand Theft Auto brings reality and the virtual world together. You live the life of the character.
One of the only games that made me feel smart solving its ingenious puzzles as well as laughing hard at its clever writing. Online community puzzles add replay value!
After playing Portal 2, I decided to have portals installed in my own house. The trip to the bathroom has never been faster.
I can't believe that Portal 2 is not in the top ten. No other game emotionally connects players to the story as much as Portal 2.
Not the game of Half-Life that I liked so much, but the mods that were created from its engine like Team Fortress and Day of Defeat.
When the games went to Source and you needed an account with Steam to play online, that's when it all went downhill for me. They screwed up a good thing for profit. Thanks.
This is no ordinary game. This is amazing. The graphics, ideas, etc., are the bomb!
The greatest game ever made. Nothing else comes close.
Arguably one of the best personal computer games or franchises. It is good fun. Most of it has fine reward features to go with it. The maps and game styles are vast, and you can even create your own map and some enemies.
Starcraft is really good at being fluid in nature with graphics for a strategy game, and a few other things alike. Good it is in the firsts as a whole still!
You could have never missed the great epic battle of the Zergs, Protoss, and Humans. The campaign and the story it brings out. The star of all crafts in its genre, should I say.
This game was a best seller and most pirated at its time. And after more than a decade of wait, SC2 is coming!
Wow. Not even in the top ten. Call me weird, but I've never been a huge fan of any of the current games that rate above this on this list, up to and including WoW, Half-Life 1 and 2, any Call of Duty, The Sims, StarCraft, Grand Theft Auto, Minecraft, etc.
I like some of them, but the time I've spent... Too much of my lifespan has gone towards Skyrim for me not to vote for it. Also, Skyrim is unbelievably awesome, and you should vote for it. So yeah. Enough said.
My favorite, no game has stayed with me for so long. I have clocked almost 300 hours and not even half of it is completed.
Open hand-designed and massive world. Awesome soundtrack, flexible player development. Will continue playing it for the next few months. Dragons...!
One of my favorite games of all time. Building on the style of Minecraft, but with a 2D perspective, a dozen worlds to explore, good multiplayer, and a long and fun game to play.
No wonder it was the best-selling game on Steam for 6 days after its release, with over 200,000 people online at midday at the time of release, and is currently the second best-selling game on Steam. Only one problem: it's hard as balls!
Terraria is the best game ever. So much to do and explore, you will never get bored with this game on your PC!
BEST game ever! And not a copy of Minecraft. So shut up all you Minecraft fanboys.
I have had this game for about two years. I still love it as much as the day I got it. Think about it. It's got hats, it's free, the community is great, there are thousands of maps, tons of sprays and skins, and even HUDs.
Like Zombies from Call of Duty? Play Mann vs. Machine. Like CTF? Play 2fort. Like TDM? Play any Mario Kart server! This game has it all, even racing after the latest Halloween update.
The only improvement I can think of is an in-game currency. Instead of randomly finding items, why not have flamethrower-wielding pyromaniacs carry around their wallets? That aside, 10/10.
The Newcomers
I kinda understand why it's so low on the list, but you should try it. It's pretty fun.
One of my favorite RPGs EVER! Interesting and heartfelt story, challenging bosses, amazing soundtrack! Masterpiece.
I'm going to be honest, there's a good reason why the Sims series is the best-selling PC game of all time. One of those reasons is that it was more than a simulation game. It gave us, the players, the ability to create whatever we wanted and do whatever we wanted.
As soon as you open the game, you'll have one of the best video game experiences of your life. Do you know any other game that gives you the ability to create almost anything from your imagination and never get bored with it?
I don't know about the rest of you, but it does get tiring to be killing so many enemies in other games. Just playing The Sims 2 is a breath of fresh air.
Art direction is the best ever! The feeling is awesome! It can compete with today's games! If you have not played it, it is a must!
A beautifully crafted and excellent game and definitely one to play again.
Best FPS with amazing story, world, and gunplay! Timeless and fun even today!
I voted for this because it feels like a real army fighting real jets, and it has awesome graphics. The game's story is just like a real army's story. How could you not vote for it? You're right, aeromaxx777, the best game in the wars has only gotten 4% of the votes?
Just a brilliant game. Excessive but very high-quality graphics, and the closest to the real war experience.
Just can't stop playing this awesome, realistic, and powerful game!
This is the most played game ever. Trust me, it is awesome.
Play it for a while. Get good. You'll see why it's so popular.
My personal favorite game ever.
Awesome, remarkable, epic, great FPS game I have ever played. It is also the best LAN game, I think. Make a server, invite all your friends, and beat your opponent. Last word, amazing game.
The best game. Found it better than 1.6 and Condition Zero. No complaints can be made about the graphics. Try this game!
It should at least be in second place because it's way better than a lot of those games.
How is this not at least in the top 5?
Another game I watched my dad play because mom wouldn't let me play due to the violence. When I finally got to kick ass in the game on my own, there was no other feeling.
Unfortunately, today's society would never have any clue of a first-person shooter like this, but fortunately, I was lucky to have a PC gamer dad.
This is one of the best and most influential games of our time. It still easily holds its own against any new game that comes out, boasting flashy graphics and gimmicky new physics features.
I love The Sims 3 so much. I can't believe it is so low on the list!
Half-Life 2: One of the greatest single-player FPS games out there. Team Fortress 2: One of the greatest multiplayer FPS games out there. Portal: One of the greatest and most clever puzzle FPS games out there.
Put them all in one package. You now have The Orange Box.
Quality developing from Valve here. There are three high-quality games in this bundle that could have been sold separately for triple the price, but they decided to bundle it. 10 respect for them.
I know it's kind of cheap to have The Orange Box on the list when you already have HL2, but still, it's got five games for the price of one! And they're legit games!
The idea of playing God had never occurred to anyone before. There have always been dolls, but this was a revolutionary game with people who have minds of their own.
While I do have and enjoy all of The Sims 2 and Sims 3 expansion packs, TS1 will always have a special place in my heart. It reminds me of my childhood, and that is something that no amount of "improved graphics" or "redesigned gameplay" that comes with the newer Sims games can ever replace.
Apart from being a great play with terrific graphics and visuals, it also has the greatest looking virtual women and is the first game I ever played where I was chatted up by one.
Destroyed my bro's highly defended Town Hall and let some of his villagers live, then killed them after he had some wood, almost enough to build a town hall, and left his explorer alive. Then I trapped the explorer in the corner of the map with artilleries. I won. Good times.
AOE 3 is one of the best PC games anyone could play. The graphics are great, there's a fantastic multiplayer mode, as well as a thrilling and historically fascinating campaign.
I love this game and the whole series. I have every Age of Empires game ever made.
What? Can't believe it! Grand Theft Auto 5 has to be at the top. Not even in the top 5? It deserves the first position.
It should be first. It's a very interesting game.
