I put these on there based on what I considered quality for its time. Some of the older games are still better than their modern counterparts. (Golden Eye, SOCOM2)
My ALL-TIME favorite game was Ironman Super Offroad..Nothing even comes close to it for me. I guess it has a sentimental aspect to it. Great Game; especially in the arcade.

That's when you know a game is great. I mean, if you're willing to pick up and play a (nes/64/super nes) game right now, with ps3's and 360's lying around, that's a classic. Like I said, I still play DEO from time to time. And tyson's punch out, THAT never gets old. Always fun to go back and play it for an hour or so.
Jurassic Park on the original Sega Genesis was badass.
And my top 10 I posted earlier deserves some honorable mentions:
S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: Shadow of Chernobyl
Dead Space
I don't ever see my top two (Deus Ex, Half-Life) changing. IMO, I don't see how any game can compare to them for me, I could even say Crysis, but maybe I could change a spot depending on how Elder Scrolls V is.
Oh man. I almost forgot about Jurrasic Park. I thought it was bad ass that you could play as the Raptor.
Contra, though, may actually be my favorite game of all time. Super C on SNES wasn't too bad either. Except they added a few top view levels, which I did not like.
They tried to make one on the PS2 which was an miserable failure.

IMO Socom puts all these new games of that genre to shame. Nothing beat that feeling when you were really on fire and made a come back win when you were the last man on your team and they had 6 or 7. It was a game that rewarded strategy and patience.

Oh man, no doubt!
I was playing Breach at Enowapi. I was on the seals. It was just me vs. 4 people. I had the satchel outside the back bridge. I dropped the satchel, right after the last person on my team died by a PMN mine. It made it look like he had the bomb and that he dropped it after he died.. I dropped back about 30 yards from it and waiting to see if they would try to camp the bomb, two of them did. two easy kills.
Then I scanned the cliff inside their breach for snipers. There was none, so I climbed up into the RPG turrent and bombarded their camp with grendades and hit another one.
I then picked up the bomb and entered their breach camp. I figured the last guy would be camping the underground bomb plant. It has two entrances. So I tossed a grenade to the back entrance, to draw his attention to it. It apparently worked, because I rushed into the front and saw him hiding behind the corner watching the back of bomb plant entrance. An easy kill.
That was the final round. My teammates were talking about that win all night. The false sense of accomplishment I got from that win was off the charts.
But the best part of SOCOM (2), is the teamwork. You have to use great teamwork and communication most of the time to succeed. You'll occationally have a great comeback win like the one from above. But if you don't work as a team, you'll get demolished 99.99% of the time.
Dead space 1 and 2 are pushing their way into the top 10. Dead space 2 is that good, IMO. I could play it all damn day if I didn't have to work. It just never gets old.

I just bought the first Dead Space the other day. I haven't played it yet, because my friends finally decided to continue our online dynasty. But I'll finally get to try it out. I wanted to play the first one before trying the sequal.
Great game, man. You won't regret it, trust me. I think one of the best parts of the game (both 1 and 2) is the kinesis. Picking up bodies and throwing them around the room NEVER gets old. the sheer physics of it just boggles my mind. They make it look so real. Like a freaking rag doll getting tossed around. Makes me laugh every time. Also can't get get enough of the impalements. Spearing a necro to the wall is hilarious.
I would need to revise my top 10 and put Dead Space 2 in there. DS1 is great, but DS2 completely takes it to a new level. Isaac, as a character, was awesome. I usually don't get into video games to the point where I care about a character but I was always wanting to see Isaac succeed and you felt bad for him in the game. The last 10 minutes of the game is one of the most epic finales you will ever see.
I'm pretty sure Crysis 2 is also about to have a reservation in my top 10
