My Top Ten List:
(Isometric Rpg type)

1 UFO: Enemy Unknown(Also called X-Com)
Simply briliant
http://www.gamespot.com/pc/strategy/xcomufodefense/index.html

2 Fallout 1 & 2
Story, depth, easter eggs, combat, eyecandies, quests, freedom, you name it!
http://www.interplay.com/fallout/about.html

3 Divine Divinity
well... you all know the reason for this one <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

4 Diablo II
For being a great online experience(and not expensive $$$ <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggrin.gif" alt="" />) to share with ur friends

5 Plascape Torment
For its marvelous story, very rich and fun

6 Jagged Alliance
For those who love turnebased combat

7 X-Com Apocalipse
This could have been the perfect game, but the graphics and gameplay ruined it completely
http://www.gamespot.com/pc/strategy/xcomapocalypse/index.html

8 Star Control 2
For its awsome Sci-Fi story
http://www.gamespot.com/pc/rpg/starcontrol2/index.html

9 Crusaders: No Remorse/No Regret
Very addictive, fun and fast action
http://www.gamespot.com/pc/adventure/crusadernoregret/

10 Infantry
A very nice simple and free(not any more <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/disagree.gif" alt="" /> ) game, to share with friends online

Well, I have a crystal glass display case for my game and a soft cussion underneath it. Often I cover it with cloth to protect the box's paper against sunrays. I even made a backup copy to play so that I won't have to leave fingerprints over the original game!
Actually no. Not a single game is better than arcanum.
Top 10 best games ever:

1. Arcanum
2. Arcanum
3. Arcanum

5. Arcanum
6. Arcanum

I didn't play Planescape Torment and Arcanum yet. Would like, but can't find it. Oh, another thing: I hate Fallout. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/tongue.gif" alt="" /> I hate science-fiction settings...

Every game with a '!' you guys forgot! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/tongue.gif" alt="" />
3 & 4 are difficult to place, sometimes 4 is on place 3 and vice versa.

Well, it's diffucult for me to put an order into my list, so read this with NO DISCLAIMER <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/winkwink.gif" alt="" />

- <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/div.gif" alt="" />

- Realms of Arcania Series

- Wizardry 8

- Stonekeep

- Planetscape : Torment

Well, that's it so far. My own "RPG Career" is quite short, so I don't even know some of the games you all posted.

EDIT : Oh, I see that you wanted ISO ganes. So hold your eyes shut when you read "Wizardy 8 and Realms of Arcania series and Stonekeep. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/winkwink.gif" alt="" />

Well, I remember Freedom Force. I got it somewhere arround. Fun game with great support from Irrational Games.
Wizardry 8 I played only the demo as for M&M series, the only good was the 5th one: the rest were awful.

Oh no... The only good M&M game is the 8th edition. The newest (9) sucks monkeyballs. Screwed up control - bad "improved" graphics wich are uglier than in 8 and stupid inventory system... Blah!
I should play Arcanum if you like it... Can I download a demo somewhere?

Well, I never impose my favorite games to anyone. If you want you can find the demo arround sierra but since you didn't like Fallout, I doubt you should try Arcanum...

Mine have pretty much all been said before: X-Com (the first one only), Fallout 2, Planescape Torment, Baldur's Gate 2 (without expansion), Diablo 2 (with expansion), Divine Divinity, Arcanum, Jagged Alliance 2, Incubation, Nox,...
But that's just Isometric RPG's.

Other good games for me are C&C Red Alert, Warcraft3, Hitman2, Dungeon Keeper, Deus Ex, Unreal Tournament, Age of Empires series, Mechwarrior (preferably the 2&4: Mercenaries), System Shock (1&2), Thief (1&2), Morrowind, Jedi Knight2: Jedi Outcast, Splinter Cell, GTA series, Battlefield1942.

This includes a lot of recent games, because I forgot about a lot of older yet fantastic games. Thing is, I could make a list of my favourite games, but I'd be leaving too many good games out.

Twinsen ... ah, yes, I liked that very much, too. Except the savegame-system.

I thought the controls were a little awkward too. I often got sent to the dead book* because I couldnt line up an enemy and attack them properly

(* Ok, so Ive been playing PS:T again)
