Exclamation System Shock II
Best game ever made?

I know it's kinda old, and the graphics is nothing to brag about, but it has something few other games has. Atmosphere.

AcE!

It still scares me.

I'm playing through it in 10 minute sessions.

I wasn't too impressed with it to be honest. Though I did play it for the first time about a year ago so maybe the crappy graphics put me off.
Go Half Life! All the way!

I played it first when it got out, back in -99. I'm getting it again, and I'm like a little kid, waiting for christmas.

It's okay, but it seems to be an endless keycode collection.

Also, it's not scary at all, and it claims to be terrifying.

The graphics weren't much worse than Half-Life's.

it is
an ace and scary game.
Even better playing it 2 player over a network, so you have the co-operation aspect and can mix the psi and weapons skills accordingly.
Like most other games by Looking Glass, it is perhaps one of the most underrated games ever.

First time I played it, I remember I had just chased (litteraly) a burgler out of my home (He woke me upp while I was sleeping during the day, but that's another story).

Playing that game afterwards was next to horrifying.
