Doom - PC

Pros Cons
Engaging story Unresponsive controls
Epic boss fights  
Intense action  
Addictive gameplay  
Just plain fun  
The only original shotter out there, next to wolfenstein.

Go out and buy this right now. I don't care what you say. Go do it. This is the BEST game out there. This game made FPS a genre. The story is awesome! Hell on Mars, and you have to save everyone. The bad thing is the controls aren't great. If you get this, I recommend you get a joystick, it really helps with gameplay.

Half-Life: Opposing Force - PC

Pros Cons
Epic boss fights Poor storytelling
Addictive gameplay  
Just plain fun  
A great sequel?

Is this a sequel to HL? I don't think so. The game offers HL action from one of the soldiers viewpoints. The bosses are gigantic and fun to fight. One thing I didn't like was the story sometimes jumped around a bit. But, that's just me. I highly reccomend you pick this one up, you won't regret it.

Counter-Strike: Source - PC

Pros Cons
Addictive gameplay Repetitive gameplay
Tight controls  
Innovative concepts  
Fantastic multiplayer  
Just plain fun  
The only real online game

Let me start off by saying this: this game is the shit. There is no game that can top this. The multiplayer is one of the best in my knowledge. My only gripe is that if you dont switch from regular gameplay to some of the mods that they have, it gets a little repetitive.

Half-Life 2: The Orange Box - PC

Pros Cons
Engaging story Doesn't live up to expectations
Intense action  
Addictive gameplay  
Fantastic multiplayer  
Play it on the PC

This was meant for the PC. The multiplayer game TF2 is one of the best, and a true CS:S competitor. Portal will leave you puzzled for hours. HL2: Ep2 is another great game in the saga. A really good bang for your buck, too- comes with Half life 2, half life 2 episode 1 + 2, TF2, and portal. All for $40.

The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion - PC

Pros Cons
Engaging story Terrible multiplayer
Loads of content  
Intense action  
Addictive gameplay  
Innovative concepts  
Just plain fun  
The best RPG to date. That's right, WoW users, let it sink in.

This game ROCKS! My only gripe is that there is no online multiplayer, but I guess it's because there are cheats. The graphics are amazing. There are a ton of quests, and the two expansion packs will keep you busy for a while.
