There are a lot of great games out there that deserve our attention, but choosing the right one can be a minefield (oh the cheesiness). So because everyone here plays games, I thought we could help each other out, and recomend good games. So if people would like to shout about games they've enjoyed, I'll add them to this list:

First/3rd Person Shooters

Half Life 2
Call of Duty and United Offensive
Max Payne 1 (definately) and 2 (maybe)
No One Lives Forever 1 and 2
The Grand Theft Auto Series
Far Cry
The Punnisher
Rainbow 6 series
Freedom Fighters

Role Playing Games/Adventure

The Grand Theft Auto Series
Deus Ex (and Deus Ex Invisible War)
Plainscape Torment

Real Time Strategy/Managment

Dune 2
Total Annihilation
Diablo / Diablo II
Starcraft

Online Games

World of Warcraft
Battlefield 1942 and Battlefield 2 (unless you don't have a DX9 card...grrr)
EVE online
Guild Wars
Counter Strike Source
UT2004
Planetside

Other Games

Darwinia
Freedom horse
Tiger Woods Golf 2005

Personally I'm looking for a good FPS to play during the summer, but I'll see what comes up.

wha? that ain't right!

I recommend that everyone go out and BUY both of these:

NO ONE LIVES FOREVER
NO ONE LIVES FOREVER 2

FPS:

farcry

I personally found Max Payne 2 and Deus Ex Invisible War to be steaming piles of dog poo.

the punnisher makes for a good game, dunno what that is... fps/3rd person/ torture

Mmm, I didn't know whether to put them in the first group or this one, but San Andreas is definatley RPGish

Ah hah! This is what I'll be playing this summer. Played the demo, but never the full games, thank you very much!

it would come under the same as max payne as it seems to be the same game but u get to 'interogate' people with pointy things

San Andreas is totally a shooter man. Stats do not make an RPG...

FPS: Rainbow 6 series... been playing since the first one and still play raven shield (online)

DX: Invisible War is wank compared to the first one... play neither online though.

other than that it's CS:S

Rain.

this! they both have bizzare quirks though...

also, if you're looking for a quick single player jaunt, pick up a copy of Freedom Fighters. It has some good squad based action and you can get it dirt cheap.

oooh, that reminds me: Freedom horse!
Its my honest belief that everyone in the world should play both the freedom horse games. They are brilliant squad based tactical superhero silliness.

For Freedom!

I'm FPS through and through, but:

Starcraft
Total Annihilation
Diablo / Diablo II

In fact, see my entry in the 'Top ten games' thread for my recommendations.

Sports:

Tiger Woods Golf 2005 (just played a bit of it this weekend and was quite impressed)

I played it (or maybe it was 2004, I forget) on t3h Playstashun 2 and it's pretty fun. I like the swing mechanic with the analog stick. I'd hate to do it with a mouse though.

I don't think it makes a difference, 2004 and 2005 are very similar, the game mechanic is identical.

Good old EA.
I've got 2003.. it's not bad. Not played it in ages though.

I found it quite easy and fluid with the mouse.

i was playing this the other night actualy, fucking good fun. i spent a good 5 minuits doing rapid replays of tiger hitting a deer with his club while exclaiming 'ITS A FUCKIN ORSE!'. i thought it was hillarious. needless to say i was quite hungover this morning
