Your computer can support HoMM5, as well. SimCity4 is probably not that great, however, as it is quite demanding on CPU power as your city grows.

Robin Hood the legend of sherwood which came out in 2002 is really fun, theres no multiplayer but the single player missions and the game are pretty sweet, or at least they were the last time I played it.
say you were born into a jungle indian tribe where food was scarce...would you run around from teepee to teepee stealing meat scraps after a day lazying around doing nothing except warming urself by a fire that you didn't even make yourself? -rekrul

If you like flying spaceships Freespace 2 was one of the greatest space simulators ever (I personally took that game way more seriously in terms of training than SC....)

orgolove: wtf, he can't run more than half of the games in your list reasonably
OP: TES: morrowind, Rollercoaster Tycoon 1 or 2, Diablo II, Half life 1 and 2 (2 should be pushing it, but its a very well optimized game), Far Cry 1 (VERY good game, much more fun than crysis imo)

Definately morrowind if he hasn't played it, and absolutely everyone should experience playing Half Life 2 in a single sitting.. one of the best gaming experiences of all time.

games like Drakan, Dungeon Keeper, MDK2, The Dig, Planescape: Torment, Alice, Syberia, Gabriel Knight, Grim Fandango, Beyond Good and Evil, Psychonauts, Jedi Knight II, Thief are usually overlooked gems yet better than most of the games posted in this thread. Ok, I know PS:T and Grim Fandango were posted previously but they're both too good to go unnoticed.
I'm taking whatever coverage I can get, because frankly, I'm busy working on this million dollar deal at my job. Early retirement is a good thing brotha man. - MessengerASL

Play the Might and Magic and Heroes of Might and Magic franchise games.

Dating 1992-2009, these games will NOT disappoint. Best RPGs and turn-based strategy games ever made.

Planescape Torment slightly moded / Baldur's Gate 1+2 heavily moded / Deus Ex slighty moded.

My three favourite solo games.
Planescape has the best story ever made for a video game.
BG moded is still the Crpg king.
Deus Ex is probably the best hybrid ever made.

pm for info about mods.

Seeing as orgolove has been fairly exhaustive, I'm going to just bold my choices from his list

Other Major Games:
football manager 2009, 2010
Civilization 2, 3, 4
heroes of might and magic 3,4 (IMO 3 is much better than 4, but it's an issue of taste)
elder scrolls oblivion (I liked Morrowind better, but there's the caveat that it's harder to get into)
Final Fantasy 7/8
GTA 3/4 (Grand theft auto)
Neverwinter Nights 1/2 (Note that the base content in these games is fairly mediocre--be prepared to spend several hours looking for custom campaigns, which is where the real fun lies)
Sim City 3000/4k
The Sims 4
Fallout 3 (1 and 2 are better, but as with Morrowind, are harder to get into)
The Witcher (Enhanced Edition)
S.T.A.L.K.E.R.

Age of Empires 1/2/3
Spore


Latest games:
Alpha Protocol (@orgolove: have they patched this game yet?)

FFVII if you like RPGs at all and haven't played it. Heroes of Might and Magic III is also pretty good.

Maybe list stuff you've played already?

Alpha Centauri def though, that game will sap hours away from your life..as will most Civilization games, or paly some of the classic Call Of Duty games
And Duke Nukem 3D is also pretty amazing
