    They're FPS' son.

    Call of Duty looks nice but it's just like all eleventy billion other WW2 games out there

    And Far Cry is just beautiful...Mmm... That tropical scenery... My god...

    Star wars KOTOR is a great RPG with excellent graphics and is a very addictive game.
    On my 9800pro i set it to it's highest ingame settings i.e. 6xAA 16xAF shadows full e.t.c. except resolution (I set that at 1280x960)

    Painkiller, Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time, Command and Conquer Generals, Command and Conquer Generals: Zero Hour, Call of Duty, Halo, Far Cry (even though you've already got it )

    Should be something in there.

    Oh, and Blockers: RPG = Role Playing Game; FPS = First Person Shooter.

    Homeworld 2! Nothing quite so graceful as full on ion cannon capital ship combat while fighter squadrons explode all around all set to a serene backdrop of a stunning muticoloured nebula.
