Programmed after one of the most notorious movies of its time, Max Payne takes the credit for introducing a slow-motion mode called the ‘Bullet Time’ which would allow you to mow down your adversaries in midair and get to enjoy the moment wholesomely. Focusing on an NYPD detective who is out to avenge his family’s death, the game had everything in it for PC game lovers, including a trippy story, an interactive graphic story line, armed encounters and insane shootouts, etc. It remains a classic since 2001 and is considered a must play for PC game addicts.

  1. Battlefield 2

A true ode to military mayhem is how a diehard fan of Battlefield 2 will describe the game. Although it was not the first to allow gamers to command vehicles and use sprays of gunfire to wreak havoc of great magnitudes, it was definitely the first game to promote squad based combat which allowed users to team up with squad members in a modern combat setting, brownie points for anyone who loves mowing down enemies and wreaking large scale devastation.

  1. SimCity 2000

Forget Farmville and Cityville. We had SimCity back then, an intricate game of plotting and building entire metropolises. The game saw several variations come out in the years 1994 and 2000, offering gamers the chance to don the hat of a creator as they made cities come to life on their computer screens. With the focus on urban planning and management, this game managed to attract PC gamers to it like bees to honey, and offered the choice to build underground subways and water pipes, as well as highways, airports, seaports, power plants and what not.
