This is basically about some of the games I played.
The lists includes games I enjoyed, sometimes got addicted to, games I finished, games I played with (or against) friends,
games that held my interest longer than most, and games that are otherwise memorable.
All of them are games that had an impact in some way or another.
The lists don't mention every single game I ever played, and I doubt it will ever be complete.
The lists are sorted by genre
first,
as far as that is possible with overlapping genres to name one thing.
Secondly they are sorted by (European) release date (for the system I played them on), although games from series are grouped together.
It is possible some information is incorrect, but these are the best I could come up with online.
If a game company was renamed, or no longer exists, the link points to the new company's website.
I started gaming
on my father's Atari 800 XL
,
and spent quite some time playing games
in the attic with that machine.
At one time my father gave me his old PC to use,
and over time I switched from gaming on the Atari to gaming on the PC.
I played on a few generations of 2nd hand PCs,
then struck a deal on splitting the costs for a new one, maybe even a few generations.
I soon ended up where I am now, where I buy my own hardware.
Inbetween my Atari days and now I played a few games on a number of different consoles, and I bought an Xbox 360.
This list indicates free games with this icon: 
.
You may also want to see Wikipedia's lists of:
freeware games,
commercial games released as freeware, and
open source games.
