I can't believe you guys left out Quake 1. Quake 1, ie classic quake, had a HUGE impact on the pc world. Where would COUNTERSTRIKE, Day of defeat, and every other mod be without quake starting the mod revolution? The console!! what game these days doesn't have a console! since when could you completely redesign a game and make a flight sim, an rts, or a racing game-- which the developer actualy supported doing?

Not to mention Quake being the first game to incorporate a fully three dimensional environment, unlike doom and duke3d where you couldn't actualy look up and down without it being distorted, or actualy have a level with multiple floors. And quake first started using polygons instead of sprites for models.

And how about internet play? all games before quake used IPX, which is only for LAN play, unless you wanted to buy kali. Quake really set the standard for playing through TCP/IP, and was the first fps game to actualy have big turnaments played on, and "professional gamers" how silly it might be.

I don't doubt that there are other games worth noting, but you HAVE to give quake credit! It was such a big milestone!!

And I also have to give tons of credit to blizzard. The warcraft(I donno if warcraft was before c&c) series and Diablo really boomed two different types of games, and that's freaken innovative!
