Hmm, not sure. I suppose they should be treated as separate games, in which case, I choose Halflife 2.

I noticed you chose Counterstrike - are you counting this as a different game to Counterstrike: Source?

Kingdoms was (and still is kind of) the best RTS game I've ever played. The animation of the units was just amazing, and the whole mana resource collecting really made for some massive battles (my old Pentium III used to sweat like a fat bloke in a sauna slaving over this game!). Did you ever try the expansion, the Iron Plague (?) which introduced the 5th force Creon? I never managed to complete that expansion because one of the maps just ended up being completely stalemate (think it was Veruna vs Creon with you playing as Veruna)!

I did think about that, but since they are essentially the same games (admittedly Source looks and sounds LOTS nicer) I've just kept them as the same thing.
