What can I say, Square had quite a streak going for a while there (dating back long before FFVII), and they still aren't doing too bad these days in my humble opinion. Probably be a much harder list to make if it were restricted to one game in a series or something like that. Lots of great games that didn't quite make the cut.

Off the top of my head:

#10: Call of Duty 4
#9: Half Life 2
#8: The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion
#7: Portal
#6: Dragon Age: Origins
#5: Mass Effect
#4: Fallout: New Vegas
#3: Fallout 3
#2: The Sims 2
#1: Simcity 4 Deluxe

Of all time?

Goldeneye 007
Perfect Dark

Some tough decisions there, and I'm sure I've forgotten more than a few games that are worthy of a place, but that's my list for now.

[EDIT]: I think I'll stop with the honourable mentions now or I'll have more than 10 of them too.

1. Halo: Combat Evolved (very first first FPS-game and the very first console-game to play in my life) :gun: Xbox 360
2. Halo 2 (best multi-player memories) :foodndrink: Xbox 360
3. Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare (first game to play on Live) Xbox 369
4. Halo Reach (probably the best single-player experience ever) :celebration: Xbox 360
5. Half-Life series (Awesome) :nod: PC, Xbox & Xbox 360
6. Midtown Madness (first racing-game to play in my life) Xbox
7. The Elder Scrolls: Oblivion (best RPG I'v ever played) bliviongate: Xbox 360
8. Portal (especially when I understood the Still Alive song) :dance: Xbox 360
9. Alien vs Predator (I had the best/funniest match i have played ever online with this game) :clap: Xbox 360
10. Dead Space (because it's scary as [censored] and i like the universe) Altman Be Praised!!! Xbox 360

2,5. Monster Hunter Freedom (one of the best games ever) PSP

Vampire the Masquerade: Bloodlines
Knights of the Old Republic
KotOR 2: The Sith Lords
Rome: Total War
Morrowind
Warcraft 3
Jedi Knight 2: Jedi Outcast
Republic Commando
Mass Effect
Grand Theft Auto 3
Max Payne
The Witcher

That list is far from perfect, but its the ten favourites that came to my mind at the moment. Ask me tomorrow and you'll probably get a completely different list. The cursive ones will always be on it though.

Edit: I totally forgot about The Witcher, but I'm not sure which game to replace it with. Perhaps Mass Effect or KotOR 2.

Edit2: Forgot about Max Payne as well, that game is perfection. Mount and Blade: Warband could be in my top ten as well, but not today.

Morrowind
Fallout New Vegas
Civilization V
Rise of Nations
Fallout 3
Kotor 1
Kotor 2
Wall Street Raiders
Medieval Total War
Oblivion

Here they are in no particular order:

• Homeworld - 3D space RTS; ion cannons, super-capital class ships and salvage corvettes. This game had one of the BEST singleplayer campagains I've ever played. Fantastic sound track too.
  
  
• TES III: Morrowind - Beth's greatest achievement, bringing cRPGs into huge popularity on both the PC and the Xbox. I spent countless hours exploring Vvardenfell. Expansions were a bit buggy but fun enough.
  
  
• Dune II - Fantastically fun RTS by Westwood Studios. I was never really any good at this game but I loved building units, harvesting spice and plonking down buildings.
  
  
• X-wing Alliance - Pretty much last of the LucasArts space-sim games. The fact that it was Star Wars probably sold it to me a lot more than it should have. Beautiful sounds track and a pretty engaging story, even if it fell flat towards the end.
  
  
• Jane's USAF - Combat flight sim. I liked it because it was hard. Dodging missiles, flying below radar, machine gunning your foes...heaps of fun.
  
  
• Jedi Knight II: Jedi Outcast - Star Wars themed FPS. Having played the original Dark Forces, this game introduced the 3D FPS into the Star Wars universe spectacularly. I had only played Yoda Stories before hand so this was a bit different!
  
  
• Putt-Putt goes to the Parade - Childrens' puzzle game. I don't know why I enjoyed this game so much. Maybe I just like mowing lawns and making my car look pretty.
  
  
• Operation Flashpoint - FPS combat-sim. More realistic than anything I had played to date. Aside from Basic Training, I don't think I finished a mission with less than 5 deaths. The damage models were a new to me and the sound of BMPs still give me nightmares. Never leave home without an RPG.
  
  
• Europa Universalis III - Grand Strategy game by Paradox. Basically it takes your typical Civilization game and shoves it up a 25 degree learning curve by introducing a budget, army morale, supply problems, royal marriages, alliances, prestige and the full use of the world map.
  
  
• Mount and Blade: Warband - First/Third person medieval combat. Everything from archers to cavalry, bows, lances and other exotic medieval weapons for you to choose from and a combat system unlike anything I've seen before. Being a bit of a history nut, it game really gets my juices going.
