Default Deserted Island Scenario

Ok to make this short: You're going to be stranded on a tropical deserted island for 5 years. Food, shelter, and electricity is provided. Your sole form of entertainment is any 10 games you choose with the provided platform.

Only restriction is you don't get internet. These are your only options, theres no escaping, no killing yourself, no making one of your hands stronger than the other.

Was really bored yesterday so me and my friend decided to basically make a list of games that don't require the internet, that have great replay value and wouldn't get boring after a while. I'll post my list when this thread gets going.

Doh! I'm off-topic in the off-topic ... why haven't anyone listed Civilization yet? All time classic!
