For the past year my top game would definitely be "Crusader Kings II" for the PC. Simply put, it's a grand strategy game where you strive to conquer Europe through military and diplomatic warfare.

The game has a serious learning curve, but with a few tutorials it comes together eventually. It has a great community, and if you're mildly interested in grand strategy games, the demo on Steam is definitely worth a try.

Nothing is more satisfying than inheriting a large kingdom through a multi-generational plan involving series of assassinations, while simultaneously fighting off your religious enemies and enacting your masterfully designed eugenics program (to produce the perfect heir).
