Sunk some time in on Sega master system II and Playstation 1 as well

Now i'm lucky if I get in an hour on a Friday night with my mates

edit: oops, how did I forget doom 1/2 and heretic ! 

Unreal Tournament, Heroes of might and Magic III, Stunts, Counter Strike, Heretic, Doom, Incredible Machine, Worms. Most of these are still available on GOG.

Quake III Arena was the cause of my first PC upgrade, the crappy VGA card I had then wouldn't play it properly. Upgraded to a TNT2 M64 I think :)

Played a LOT of C&C RedAlert, RA2, Yuri's Revenge etc. (might get the remasters when they come out).

AOE2, Need for Speed games.

We had two PCs in the house through those years and my stepson and I would play a lot of networked C&C. Had to work out some fix to get one of the Red Alert games to work over a LAN - it didn't go natively over a LAN as we know it today - there was some setting you had to change somewhere to get it to go (IPX/SPX setting I think??)

Wolf 3D,

 

I didn't have my own PC (or use one at work) for years so I was only able to snatch PC time here and there.

Wolf 3D was the only DOS game that kept my interest long enough to actually finish it.

I was working at a small place and after work once a week or so I would pop up to the book keepers office (she was the only one with a PC) and insert my stiffy containing my pirated copy of Wolf 3D.

I would play until the sun went down and then some.

I remember getting so engrossed that at least a few times I was cruising down corridors looking for secrets when I would bump into a stray guard and literally jump out of my seat.

Good times.

I've recently resumed playing Wolfenstein Old Blood on XB1 and I was amused to find a 10-20 minute mission in level 2 which is in the retro style of 8 bit Wolf 3D.

Quake 2 with SLI on dual Voodoo 2's ;) Honestly cant remember what I did with those cards...... I must have upgraded and flogged them off.

1984 early PC DOS based, Decathlon and Star Fleet (Zaldrons cloaked and invisible!)
