Cant remember the name of it for the life of me though...
^^Sounds like Ace Combat to me.^^
I'm going way back for this one, but I loved this game
Every Dakkanaught gets a 4+ Pinch of Salt save.
When you suffer a Falling Sky hit, roll a D6 - on a 4+ the hit is ignored as per the Pinch of Salt save. On a 1-3 panic insues - you automatically fail common sense tests for the next 2 weeks and get +7 to your negativity stat. -Praxiss

Soldat, a pretty simple yet really hard 2d shooter to master. I't has a variety of game modes (deathmatch, capture the flag etc) and weapons which all act very differently. The game is (or was) even played in independent online "tournaments". One of the best gaming communities I know, for real.

I really liked the art direction in that game, and it was pretty fething hard.

All gold box games were great and the Buck Rogers gold box were no exception.

I loved Section 8 and it's sequel Prejudice. But my friends were to busy playing CoD and BF to even give it a glance after looking at the games review.
Too bad, I thought that the multiplayer was awesome.

I've played Section 8 and Prejudice. I kinda liked both, but the Prejudice multiplayer got a bit boring after a while (IMO).

The prefect example of someone missing the point.
Do not underestimate the Squats. They survived for millenia cut off from the Imperium and assailed on all sides. Their determination and resilience is an example to us all.

Its just a shame that they couldn't fight off Andy Chambers.

REUNION WAS AWESOME! I cannot believe that game never actually got remade, the gameplay was so cool, realtime travel, research and military. Though I could NEVER get tanks and thus got slaughtered each time I tried.

Minnesota, land of 10,000 Lakes and 10,000,000,000 Mosquitos
I have a couple. Alone in the Dark (the newer one that came out for modern consoles, I'm not certain if it got a PC release or not) I thought was pretty good, if frustratingly difficult at times. Oddly enough I never had issue with the inventory system, a lot of enemies are pretty slow to attack, so it's not too difficult to whip up something in a hurry.
Xenosaga (series). Great story, fantastic combat system, and some intriguing characters...and yet none of my friends had even heard about it until I brought it up.
Psi-Ops: The Mindgate Conspiracy and Second Sight. I'm a sucker for any game with psychic powers, and Psi-Ops was just a guilty pleasure game for me. (Gotta love popping heads )
Legend of Grimrock. Kind of an modern-day hidden gem, but I was addicted to it for two days straight (after which I finished the game and moved on). Honestly, the story is pretty good and the gameplay is excellent. The only disappointing thing was the ridiculous final boss.

I actually beat it! It was such a fantastic, and HARD game. The Morguls gave me nightmares..
