I saw this on Joystiq. It's a neat little retrospective on PC games in the 90s.

1990-1991 (http://news.bigdownload.com/2009/04/20/we-love-the-90s-in-pc-games-1990-1991/)
1992-1993 (http://news.bigdownload.com/2009/04/21/we-love-the-90s-for-pc-games-1992-1993/)
1994-1995 (http://news.bigdownload.com/2009/04/22/we-love-the-90s-for-pc-games-1994-1995/)
1996-1997 (http://news.bigdownload.com/2009/04/23/we-love-the-90s-for-pc-games-1996-1997/)
1998-1999 (http://news.bigdownload.com/2009/04/24/we-love-the-90s-for-pc-games-1998-1999/)

They got all the major releases and threw in some lesser known stuff for good measure.

Wow these bring back memories of the golden age of pc gaming :)

Lucasarts adventure games, Civilization, fps's, Xwing, Mechwarrior 2,Fallout, System Shock, Warcraft II, Xcom, Diablo, GTA, Age of Empires, Baldur's Gate, etc. Though where is Heroes of Might and Magic, Rise of the Triad, and Elder Scrolls Daggerfall for starters?

I loved it because for years nothing could touch PC gaming in my opinion.
