    What Have I missed?

    Hi, I feel as if there is a big void in my gaming recently, I don't quite know how to describe it, but it's missing something. Here's what I've got to play with:

    Far Cry
    UT 2004
    BF 2
    Guild Wars
    Doom 3
    Call Of Duty
    Call Of Duty: UO
    Brothers In Arms
    GTA Vice City
    GTA San Andreas
    Half Life ²
    CS: Source
    Soldier Of Fortune 2

    F.E.A.R Demo
    Dungion Siege 2 Demo

    You may well be thinking, 'jeez, what is this tit complaining about' but I'm looking for something unlike those listed, an original game (if that exists nowdays) with something new to offer. Any ideas?

    I know the feeling, but it turns out its because there's not been many big PC releases.

    Waiting for 1st September, BOS!

    I can't find enough time to play all the games i have, and i have way less than you listed! Get a job or something!

    You might want to try silent hunter 3 for something different. Or some other game that isn't a FPS... You have too many of those in the list.

    Warhammer dawn of war is good...

    GTR if you like racing...

    Mafia (Yeah, its a bit older but superb)
    TRON 2.0 (Another oldie but goldie)
    Beyond Good & Evil (Very underated game, very addictive)
    Judge Dredd (Out about same time as Mafia, highly addictive gameplay)
    Jedi Knight 2 and Academy (Addictive 3rd person games in Star Wars universe)
    Pariah (Good blast to tide things over till big releases, similar to HALO)
    The Suffering (3rd person survival horror similar to Silent Hill series but set in a prison)

    Those are just a few of my personal favourites, alot of them can be picked up for next to nothing now if you look in bargain buckets and 2nd hand shelves. Not forgetting PLAY as they usually have big discounts on older games.

    Seconded, and also uplink, fantastic game.

    Trackmania (original better than sunrise imo) Civilization, tachyon the fringe (cheesy as hell, and a little easy, but still good fun) And you can never go wrong with the real classics like max payne.

    I really enjoyed max payne 2, found it a bit on the short side but the action all the way through was great. You don't really find many 3rd person shooters now.

    I'd echo this comment. I picked up a copy and it really is good honest platform fun. Even better if you have a game pad....
