MODERATORS
A lot of the greats have already been mentioned by others, but Myst (1993) and Riven (1997) deserve to be up there.
Not only for the immersive worlds you got to experience through masterfully crafted imagery, sound and music, but also combined they held the record for best selling game series until they were surpassed by The Sims.
Earthbound!
Doom 2 Wolf3D StarCraft Warcraft 2 Chrono Trigger F15 Strike Eagle 2 (might be late 80s though) Super Mario World Shadowrun (Sega Genesis) Sonic
Of all those, StarCraft on BattleNet changed my life. What an amazing thing, to play against people from around the world. So it's hard to rank when we're mixing platforms and online and whatnot.
