Unreal Tournament (UT99 GOTY) Great shoot'em up game to play online with diff modalities, the best one (to me) is CTF in some servers like House of Fools (hofgamingclan.com) or Pureinstagib (unrealkillers.com) but there's also Monsterhunt and Deathmatch - It doesn't need a lot of pc power and it runs great with a good gfx card.

reply to TheThing
There are a lot that come to mind, some already mentioned, like Planescape: Torment ...just an unreal game, way ahead of its time.
Baldurs Gate 2 - See above
The earlier Ultima series
Half Life, et al
Counter-Strike

I could go on and on, but honestly...I think if I really had to choose one PC game, I think the best I've ever seen would have to be Skyrim. It's just so...epic in all aspects. It's weird for me to choose that title, honestly, as I've played so many great games for about 25 years now, but bang for your buck, diversity, graphics, story, etc...it's gotta be Skyrim. I mean, even the name is badass.

Show them the PC modding power on Skyrim and they will leave their consoles.

HL 2 all the way. Best game I have played period.
SW: Knights of the Old Republic. Best plot twist and ending ever.

Final Fantasy 3 (FF6 in Japan).

Great story, intertwined character arcs, pretty much what games need to get back to.

A game that got far less exposure than I think it deserved was one called Helbreath. That game was grindy like you wouldn't believe but the PVP made up for that 1000x. Was an MMO that used pictures to make it look 3d and the mechanics actually worked with no lag etc. So you could run it on any computer (hell you could run a decent private server on any computer too). All magic was 'skill shot' back when that concept was virtually unheard of and 1 on 1 or 10 on 10 open world duels could go on for 20 minutes if both parties were skilled enough. I would still be playing it but the official servers are dead (they might be shut down now) and the private server I used to play on is shut down.

Thank you for recommending a PC GAME.

WoW or Battlefield 1942.

Any of the The Half Life series. Oldies but a goodies. Fear would be another one.
