My picks for the hits out of that listing are:

Sins of a Solar Empire
Space Siege
Empire: Total War
and maybe Alone in the Dark

Unfortunately it's a list that's a bit too heavy on the cross-platform titles...here's to hoping that they'll devote resources towards making them feel PC-centric for PC fans.
