1) Star Wars: Jedi Knight 2: Jedi Outcast
Continue the adventures of our hero from Dark Forces and Dark Forces II, Kyle Katarn. After bestowing his lightsaber to Luke Skywalker and vowing never to use it again, a new power threatens the galaxy pulling Kyle out of "retirement." With breathtaking graphics and the lure of the Star Wars universe, fans will not be dissappointed. New expanded use of Force powers and lightsaber combine to make Outcast's game-play far superior to the previous titles in the series.

2) Freedom Force
Have you ever wanted to create your own comic book superhero and battle evil villains? Well Freedom Force lets you do just that in it's fictional city Patriot City. The only thing this game is missing is an argeement with Marvel, DC or Image comics to use their comic book characters.
3) Star Wars: Starfighter
This is a fast paced action game with good graphics and sound.Pilot 3 unique star fighters for the Star Wars universe. Three Heroes. One Enemy. All Action.

5) Hereos of Might and Magic IV
With more than 140 hours of gameplay and 6 unique campaigns Heroes IV will keep everyone busy. With a new magic system and new classes nothing was left unchanged from the previous version.
6) Operation Flashpoint: Cold War Crisis
With all the troops that amassed in Eastern Europe during the Cold War we are fortunate that a full-fledged war never broke out. Operation Flashpoint asks the question, "What if?" and it answers in a realistic first person shooter that pits two super-powers against each other with conventional weapons.

7) Star Wars Galactic Battlegrounds
Star wars is definately here to stay in the computer gaming world with the third title in this top ten list. Battlegrounds uses the same game engine as Age of Empires II. Nothing is better than 100 storm troopers raiding a Rebel Alliance base. Look for the soon to be release expansion, Clone Campaigns.
8) Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon
The ultimate first person shooter. Modern Military action at it's best. Guide your team through a series of missions to stop the rebuilding of the iron curtain.
9) Age of Empires II: The Conquerors Expansion
Non stop action as you guide one of 17 unique civilazations through time advancing and gaining technology to conquer all other empires. Excellent mulitplayer game. Age of Empres II: Age of Kings is required for this expansion.
10) Diablo 2
Five new character classes, 4 different, populated towns to adventure in with multiple dungeons, caverns and crypts. Customize your character's skills. All this should be enough to keep you up all hours of the night playing.
