The Neverhood!!! Oh, yes. I've been waiting for sequels on that one for a long time. I guess I still am.
I never really liked The Settlers II - the UI, the engine, the game - I always preferred The Siedlers, especially because you could do split-screen with two mouse and play with your best friend. To me, The Settlers III in 1999 was the next good Settlers game. There was a Settlers II 10th Anniversary release, had far better UI, the gameplay was better but its replay value was very low.
Quake - I modded the shit out of it. I built a Mechwarrior II mod with a mech powerup. You could hop into a mech, fire homing missiles and all that Very Happy That was the time when I learned a lot about modding. I loved the fact you could write a C code, compile with GCC and run it in the game. And yes, this was the time when people had no internet to look shit up.

Ultima Underworld was another game I played a lot.
