Roland on the Ropes has a wonderful ring to it! Classic old game on the Amstrad Cpc. I was a Spectrum person but I always enjoyed it on my mates Cpc, I reckon it should get a Charlton themed reissue if certain events come to pass!

Just read that there may finally be a 3rd in the series ...The 13th Doll
Yep The 13th Doll was setup on Kickstarter in 2015 as a fan made sequel (threequel?) to The 7th Guest. I backed the project as I loved the original game as a kid.
The release has been heavily delayed but apparently is still progressing and aims to be out in October / November (2 years later than originally stated).
There was a game on the Amiga called Hunter. It was the first open world game I'd ever seen, it was an incredible step forward. https://youtu.be/A3KNeckjgfs
Otherwise, for me - International Soccer / Emlyn Hughes / Kick Off / Sensible Soccer / ISS Wizards of Wor Gumshoe Henry's House Bubble Bobble Stunt Car Racer Monkey Island(s) North Vs South Super Cars 2 Bomberman Lemmings Batman Another World
Just remembered a game on PS1 - N2O. Blast 'em up through winding subterranean tunnels with a brilliant soundtrack from techo stalwarts Crystal Method. I'd come off a session feeling a bit dizzy yet pumped.
-Baldur's Gate 2 (Greatest RPG of all time, closely followed by...)
-Fallout 1 & 2
-Secret of Monkey Island
-Half Life
-Deus Ex
-Starcraft
-Civilization II
-Rome: Total War
-System Shock 2
-Sim City 2000
Console:
-Final Fantasy VII
-Super Mario World
-Super Mario Bros. 3
-Super Mario 64
-Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time (probably the best game ever made, imo)
-Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past
-Golden Eye 007
-Halo
-Chrono Trigger
-Street Fighter II Turbo
Definitive list right there, end of. Sports games are a good laugh but none of them come close to the immersion and quality of the above. On second thought, honorable mention goes to Sensible Soccer! Now where did I put my Amiga?
I recently read the first two Halo novels The Fall of Reach and The Flood. Loved them (especially the first one) and became interested in the whole Halo universe. Haven't got around to playing the game though.
I can't say I'm a big fan of computer games but I do play a bit and watch gameplay videos. I've probably spent more time watching the videos than actually playing. Favorite ones include CoD, Battlefield, WoW, The Last of Us. Also like GTA, Gears of War, and FM. I'm considering having a go at Dark Souls which looks like to have become one of the most popular games recently.

The sequels were all good or ok but the original was the nuts.
Still got it somewhere. Keep meaning to dig out the laptop and start over.
