    My Picks…

    Deus Ex (So many games try to be this and fail)

    Cyberpunk (This one eventually measured up)

    Alpha Centauri (Innovation mixed with familiarity and setting)

    Fallout 2 (they’re all good. Fallout 2 is special)

    Kotor (Star Wars story telling in a beautiful way)

    Baldur’s Gate 2 and 3 (I’m stunned that 3 was a worthy successor)

    Homeworld (One of the World’s truly beautiful games)

      I remember trying the demo to Homeworld when I was a kid, it came with one of those old school PC GAMER demo CDs. I think I was too young to understand how to play it effectively, but still loved it because I found the ambience of the experience so memorizing while hyper-cozy. Would you say it she’s well as something worth going back and playing now, and what of the sequel(s)?

        I still repplay now and then, there’s no game like it.

        Sadly the sequals failed to capture the grace of the original, though I’ve not tried 3 yet.
