Manhunt, my sister got it recently and I have been round her place playing it on a regular basis ever since (I'm frighteningly good at it too). The camera is very annoying and the missions do get ridiculous after the halfway point but I still found it to be fun anyway (nothing quite signifies a good night like slashing someone open with a sickle...wait...does that make me a bad person for saying that?).

 

[Twinsen]

FFVII

 

[Inco]

I've had Starcraft ever since it came out, but I was terrible at it and constantly cheated. I eventually got bored, having not learned any skills whatsoever, and placed it aside.

Three years ago, I rediscovered it for the shining gem it's always been.

Apart from the placing it aside part, i was the same. I cheated through, then came back after a bit of practice and then beat it, then left it and then beat again (time 5)
Essentially, my game is chrono trigger as i didnt get it till i got an emulator from my friend who said it was good, and i got hooked.

Believe it or not, I bought a PS2 this year so I regret not buying it earlier. I thought about it since it came out, and always got back to playing on PC.

So it must be all of the games on PS2+Fallout Tactics, Jade Empire, Orange Box...

 

[herr.Didi]

Diablo 2, Mass Effect, Kotor, FEAR.

 

[Dr.Kozak]

The original Sam and Max Hit the Road game from Lucas arts. I just discovered that about a year ago despite being a fan of the comics for years upon years.

 

[Kajt]

Team Fortress 2.
Left 4 Dead.
Portal.

 

[AlphaOmega]

Chrono Trigger
Super Metroid

 

[Slash Dementia]

I hadn't played Doom 1 or 2 until I bought Doom 3 CE - now I love those games.
Bard's Tale: Song of the Bard - I recently bought it and it's really entertaining.
