Best PC Games Ever

Several months ago I had run across an article detailing the 122 best PC games ever. As I progressed through the games, I started adding more and more games on my to-do list. By the end of it, I realized that throughout these years I somehow managed to miss nearly half these great games. That is when I decided to not only play every game, but to also provide a brief video showing them off. As an added bonus, I will also detail any special installation instructions as several of these games can be difficult to run.

As there will be several games and videos over a large period of time, I will maintain this master list which will make it easy to find all the content.
