Thief 1/2 - from Looking Glass Studios (RIP) the same bunch that did System Shock 1/2 and Ultima Underworld 1/2 amongst others. Awesome storylines with nice twists. Amazing atmosphere and some of the most original gameplay ever. Scared me shitless on a number of occasions. 3 difficulty settings that not only offer more challenge, but demand a totally different style of play. Very in-depth background to the games that wasn't actually written out as long boring stories in the manuals, but which could be pieced together in-game.
Team Fortress Classic - Multiplayer only Half-Life mod. Very fast capture-the-flag gameplay and clan matches can be insanely intense.
Baldur's Gate series - Just epic.
The Secret of Monkey Island - Hilarious. Spent many an hour playing this one with a friend when I was a kid.
Myth 1/2 - Brilliant games, very original and VERY challenging. Myth 3 might have been up there too if it weren't for terrible level design, over-use of hero/elite units and a ridiculous end-game.
