Non-Keen games you like
Bump!
I have played and enjoyed nearly everything iD released after the Keen era - Doom (it was love at first sight), Quake (the first one is still my favorite), and Wolfenstein (especially the classics).
I grew up with Apogee's games and by now I have accumulated a pretty large collection of them, including Crystal Caves, Secret Agent, Cosmos's Cosmic Adventure, Hocus Pocus, Raptor, Duke Nukum, Duke Nukem II, Blake Stone (AoG & PS) and, of course, Rise of the Triad. Even nowadays I still play and enjoy them.
After the year 2001, I also became a fan of Blizzard's game series (especially Diablo).
I can also add Descent (360 degrees of freedom!) and Blood (an awesome but, sadly, abandoned series).

Wii:
Wii Play
Mario Kart Wii
Super Smash Brothers Brawl
Boom Blox
DOS:
One Must Fall: 2097
Jazz Jackrabbit
Word Rescue-I want to get episodes other than the first one
The Island of Dr. Brain-Once I guessed the starting coordinates correctly when I didn't have the encycloalmanactionaryography handy.
Windows (My first gaming platform)
Roller Coaster Tycoon 2
The Logical Journey of the Zoombinis-Don't bother with the others; they're just inferior rehashings
Sim City 3000
Sim Park-Maxis should make a Sim Park 2
Music Ace
Math Rescue, Episode 1: In Search of Spot-My most current records have the year listed as 1911.
I often look for games at the library. Recently, however, it seems the library has purged its PC game collection and now has only limited amounts of Wii games, usually Guitar Hero and the like. Bummer.

I hope Ckeen reads this!
edit: after some thought about the whole hexen/doom/strife debate, I realized what I loved about Hexen was all the user maps, not so much the official game itself. And for doom, I feel the opposite. The original maps by romero and co. are brilliant, but then there are thousands of idiots making shovelware spam maps and there's so many piles of crap wads you can't be bothered to sort out the decent from the amateur ones.
Sadly, Strife only has 2 user wads (I'm totally serious. Look at doomworld's wad archive if you don't believe me). Would've been cool if there were more, and they were made the right way.

I play Pokemon games, and Warcraft 3. Lately I've started playing DOS games like Rayman and Warcraft 2 as well.
I love my cute little Machop!
Come on, you know Machop is cute! I mean, how could you not love those endearing eyes? That adorable face? That loving embrace?
Just don't call it cuddly or else it will hurt you.
