 Rinox' "to play" list
I'm gonna put up my list of published games I've yet to play here...feel free to add suggestions because I'm sure I won't be able to lis them all from the top of my head.  Preferrably less than 2 years old (as that is the gap between my gaming pc's  ).
Bioshock
Supreme Commander (+ expansion?)
Crysis (+ Warhead?)
Medieval II expansion
Jade Empire
Mass Effect
The Witcher Enhanced Edition
Orange Box DONE
World in Conflict
Company of Heroes (?)
C&C3 (+ Kane’s Wrath)
STALKER/Clear Sky (when/if patched properly)
Spore (?)
NWN2 (+expansions?)
Dead Space
Far Cry 2 DONE
The ? ones are games I'm unsure about. Feel free to unleash your opinion on those...like the NWN2 expansions, are they actually worth it? They seem to be cranking them out at a fast pace so...

Crysis Warhead is SecurROM DRM'd. It's a fun game, though, so whatever floats your boat.
How about World in Conflict? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/World_in_Conflict

I didn't get on with bioshock at all. you might love it though so meh.
Orange box should be no.1 imho, esp 2 was awsome.
NWN2 is ok if you keep at it..the witcher is a decent game...from the bits I've played

The Witcher takes some getting into... it's a bit overwhelming at first. Stick with it and it's very rewarding.
What about COD 4? It's worth playing, for sure.

Myeah, but I can play CoD 4 on my brother's Xbox for now...not that I have any illusions as to it being better than the PC version, but it seems kinda silly to fork out another 40-50€ for a game I can play already.
I added World in Conflict to the list and removed Hellgate London. Satis, would you recommend a patched STALKER over Clear sky? Just wondering if they are two somewhat distinct games or actually very similar in setup.
I'm gonna scout the releases of 2007-2008 and the indie games for other candidates after my lunch break.

I picked up Supreme Commander, MTW: Kingdoms and Company of Heroes this weekend for a mere 24€ altogether. Not bad.
They'll probably have to wait until after the Christmas gaming madness, though!
Anyone know good (PC) horror games? I'm waiting for Condemned 2 to make it to the pc if it's a good port, and I was wondering about Call of Chtuhlu: Dark corners of the earth. Anyone play it?

If they ever fix Clear Sky, it'll be STALKER only better, I think. The concepts are a definite evolution over STALKER... So I'd wait, assuming they ever actually fix Clear Sky.

Great, i'll definitely pick it up then.  Are the bugs as bad as they say though?

to be honest I only got about 4 hours in, then we moved and a lot of my games got lost, but I've brought it again, so that makes that and Morrowind sitting on my desk
What I played was very enjoyable, one sequence is insanely heart stopping!
At least its cheap now

hehe, ok. I was talking to a friend yesterday who was also moaning about still having to finish Morrowind.  I don't Pev ever did either. Lazy people with lives and bad priorities, the lot of you!!
On a sidenote, I picked up Bioshock for 20€. haven't installed it yet though, with FC2 and F3 and all.  Looking forward to the DX10 and the surround sound feel.
Now to find the Orange Box and Mass Effect somewhere cheap...it's a disgrace that a hardcore HL fan like me hasn't played Episode II, really. And hasn't experienced first-hand yet how brilliant Portal is. *cries*
