#9 StarCraft
Cool! This game is cool! Very cool! The sounds, the story, the characters, the menus, the voices, the maps, the style everything is so cool. I was a fan of Warcraft 2 and Age of Empires but Starcraft just took the real time strategy up to the heights of masters. It was the first game that made me interested in e-sports. To this day it is mind boggling how good some players could be at this.
I started playing this game at a friend and it took a few years before I got myself a copy. At that moment I did not even know that brood war was an expansion. To me it is so much integrated into the game that I consider it included in the name Starcraft. Starcraft 2 improved a lot mainly as a spectator e-sport but for me it never touched the greatness and coolness of the original. just starting this game up give me goosebumps.
