Ok there are more than two but they are quite different - and I don't think dungeon or starglider will make it to the short list.

dungeon - VAX 11-780 (text)
tetris - Gameboy (2D)
starglider - XT (wireframe) CGA only
duke nukem - i386 (3D)

Mario Kart (SNES) nothing is more fun.
Then I would say Deus Ex 1
Half Life
Halo 1 (sorry ps2 fans, i'm just addicted to it)

In the above order too.

EDIT: Sorry have to include Virtua Tennis 2 on DC for 4 player mayhem of fun.

I'm going to be original and vote "Half Life".

Also: Syndicate. Ahh the memories of making my men almost invincible and wiping out every last citizen in my colonies... Sweeeeeeet....

Goal -- also on the Amiga - - was around before Sensible was great crack played with all your mates.
Aroud now GTa is fairly good too.

Half-life

Who'd have ever imagined paying £30 for a game would get you 5 years of entertainment. Simply the best game ever made with countless amazing mods.
