PC Must Play PC Games?

[PP34]

My laptop actually runs a bit better than I thought, so I'm starting to get into PC games.

What are the games that you must play at least once?

So far I've got The Walking Dead, Civ 5 and Rome Total War.

Your GPU might struggle with some of these and others posted earlier, but you could always try demos to see how they go.

Recently bought Cube World. It is in it's Alpha stage, but the depth in this game is fantastic. Only going to get better and better. Can set up a free server to play on with friends.
