Number Munchers Screw Oregon Trail. If I ever have kids, they're gonna get a solid foundation of Number Munchers.

Grand Theft Auto IV Too much farting around.

Return to Zork Visual exploration like Myst, but came out before Myst, on like a billion 3.5 inch disks. Unsettling but funny storyline, inventory management stuff, and had at the time what was considered "revolutionary" motion video.

Eternal Darkness: Sanity's Requiem This game gets all meta, trying to make you feel crazy as you play it. It doesn't hurt that the game is also pretty fun, and has a pretty good storyline.

Blaster Master Great gameplay mechanics for the NES. You're in a TANK that JUMPS, and blasts things. You play a little bobble-head who occasionally leaves the tank to take on bosses, ostensibly searching for your pet frog. This game is so awesome, it doesn't need a storyline.

Assassin's Creed II Instead of crips and bloods you've got assassins and templars. Hokey story. Bite-sized missions you can play for five minutes, then do something else. Well designed world that's just as fun to hop around wasting time rather than playing the main storyline.

Wing Commander: Privateer This game probably doesn't wear its age well, but nonetheless it was a jewel of my childhood, and the best of the Wing Commander series.

Doodle Jump Crap, but the good kind. Keep it on your iPhone to amuse small children and old people.
