Top PC Games by Collective Ratings of the past 5 years? [closed]

Question

I've built my first near-top of the line desktop PC in a decade and have some serious catching up to do. I'm interested in recommendations regarding time-tested classics from the past half-decade.

My initial list is:

• Portal
• Half-life 2
• Mass Effect 1/2
• BioShock
• Fallout 3

I enjoy just about every genre besides RTS games. However, since I didn't have suitable hardware I stopped following the PC gaming scene around about 2005. Thus, I ask you, dear friends, for some help.

(Note - I've read the FAQ and hope that the specificity of the question combined with my good faith effort to provide the beginnings of an answer put this query in the clear)

  • Top rated: The Orange Box (first person shooters)
• Best games of 2008
  • Top rated: Galactic Civilizations II: Twilight of the Arnor (turn based strategy)
• Best games of 2009
  • Top rated: Batman: Arkham Asylum (third person stealth)
• Best games of 2010
  • 2010 isn't over yet ;)

Just make sure you take reviews with a grain of salt or maybe two.
