Actually, I believe The Sims is the topselling game of all time. No wonder if you consider all the expansionpacks!

im still sticking solitaire as the best game ever. everyone likes it. it can be challenging, or it can be easy. you can use different decks. its a great time killer. you could probably run it on a computer that has about 10hz. yes hertz. and im pretty sure more people have solitaire than the sims.

[Mehen]

heh, i'd like to see some solitaire benchmarks

In this case you could go for mine sweeper.
Even more popular and takes much less cpu.

FreeCell uses less memory, if that's a problem

Syndicate that game had some dark atmosphere.
Doom 1/2.

XCOM: Ufo Defense - UFO: Enemy Unknown ...

That title made me look into hex editing, made me miss much sleep, get me into much trouble with parents, and whatnot..

its my alltime fav, all genres...

[Wombat]

Heh. My first bit of fun with hex editing was Doom savegames. When you just want to blow stuff up for a while, nothing's better than going in with 255 health/armor, and 32,767 rockets and BFG ammo.

I didnt need to cheat in Doom to win
