Best OS-builtin/bundled Windows Game?

Okay I realise the title is not that good. I don't mean any old windows game as then genre and everything come into play (and everyone will just say Crysis or whatever the next best graphics game is) what I mean is games specifially put into the OS or bundled on the CD of the OS. And yes this a poll so please wait. Also sorry I don't know which games come with Vista so those are left out.

Solitare. When either everyone else is gone on a big job or on their lunch break and I'm left all alone at work, I play Solitare. Definitely a fun way to kill time. Either I do that or I rub one out when I'm all alone at work.

At the end of the day though, you won regardless of cheating or not jonc, which only supports your claims of you winning all of the time.

Lol. Nice one jonshizzle.

Next on my list would be minesweeper, though it doesn't come anywhere close to Solitaire.
