I really really like Far Cry 2. It's one of my favourite games. Beware, it's not for everyone. Lots of people dislike it because getting around the open-world map can be tiresome due to fast respawn times of the enemy guards. However, I found the story-line and atmosphere very immersive. The graphics and gameplay I found to be excellent. You can really use a lot of different tactics to get things done: stealth, arson, explosives, sniping... etc etc.

Games I have experience with:

1. King's Bounty franchise: I've only played Armored Princess and the Crossworlds. Its like Heroes of Might and Magic, but with no town building, nor are there enemies that actively seek you out. I don't know about The Legend, but I visited the 1C forums(the publisher of the game, its Russian), and from a difficulty standpoint Legend is said to be quite easy. Armored Princess is quite alot harder. Crossworlds offers the same thing as Armored Princess does(same campaign map) but more units and two mini-campaigns, and revised mechanics.

2. GTA 4 and Episodes from LC: GTA 4 is really a great game. I don't know what to say about it. However I did have problems running it on PC originally when it first came out. Now I have a 6850 and it works fairly fine.

3.Killing Floor + L4D: These two are the same types of games. FPS zombie killers, just that the mechanics are different. In Killing Floor you acquire weapons from a merchant after every wave and there is a timer of 1minute so you need to be close to the merchant as the wave is about to be finished off. So its gameplay evolves around killing off waves of zombies and resupplying at a merchant with various spawnpoints after every wave. There are also classes to differentiate the types of gameplay possible. While all classes can buy any weapons, there are class discounts for certain weapons and proficiencies to help them fight off zombies easier, in a group play setting.

L4D does not feature classes or weapon merchants, instead each map is basically divided into safezones, whereupon reaching one you begin loading the next part of the map along with resupplying inside the safezone. Weapons/items/zombie spawns are all taken care of by the AI Director, which determines based on your current progress and various other factors what to spawn and where to spawn them. Both are very good zombie games but these are the major differences between them.

Jamestown is a pretty amazing Indie shooter and is a great steal at $5 especially for any touhou fans. I would strongly recommend it to any fans of aeroplane shooters and not just bullet hell type fans.

Jamestown is a great way to get into genre, starts quite easy but ramps up in difficulty, Judgement isn't a cakewalk. Would have liked the online co-op though, even if badly implemented... been amazing on local with bunch of friends when they came over to play with controllers.

Quite good deals on Batman, GTAIV, KF and L4D2. Prototype is pretty meh, it's fun for a while for sure but would've liked it to go lower. Can't really comment on rest as I chatted with few friends who have Far Cry and they said it's really repetitive (I've got other FPS to play anyway).

Lost Planet looked pretty nice, but almost everywhere they write that controls are horrible.

Get King's Bounty while it's hot. Spent so many hours on the first one. Now I will with Armored Princess :D Also much more fun than Heroes imo.

Hmm maybe this is a dumb question, but do expansions from steam work if you didnt get the original game from steam? My mom plays Sims 3 retail but never got any expansions so i was just wondering if that was possible.

Batman: AA is a great game!
GTA IV Episodes is so good, I love that game even though I haven't played a single mission. But when Saints Row 3 comes out, I'll be all over that :x

You should add the game to steam with the serial via Games -> activate a product on steam. If that works, the expansions will work (you will probably need to reinstall the game via steam)

Just realised King's Bounty: The Legend isn't supposed to support Windows 7, was crashing every few minutes. After that I disabled V-Sync and AA and it seems to have helped or I'm just lucky for time being.

Anyone have experience playing KB succesfully on W7?

try checking what these people talk about: http://forums.techarena.in/video-games/1329707.htm
A game where the first thing you do is scout with a “worker”. Does that make any sense? Who scouts with a “worker”? That’s like sending out the janitor to perform recon, what general would do that? Retarded game.

Buy GTAIV, it is amazing. I bought a new desktop back in january of 08 just to have better graphics in GTA. Here is a video of me playing GTAIV with a custom mod I made.

I played it around Christmas on Win7 (64bit) without problem. I dont remember if I had problems at the start and fixed this (via disabling AA or something like that). But I do know I played a lot of it and it basically never crashed.

Same here, I'm on Win7 (64bit) and I could play KB as well fine as well.

I'm a huge Killing Floor fan. It's got a fun level up system that makes you stronger the more you play a class. Also experience and level is saved from game to game. The harder difficulties really pose a challenge and require sound strategic positioning as well as on the fly decisions to succeed. This game is a ton of fun to play with friends. There is also a solo mode where you can grind up your level if you are into that kind of thing.

The one thing I could never do or understand are the helicopter missions. How the fuck do you fly it and shoot?

Yeah at first I didn't understand how to do the helicopter missions either, but I realized that it was just easier to control the chopper with just keyboard rather than keyboard and mouse.
