Games for new comp

I used to be really into computer gaming but my comp was never really meant for it. i didnt have the money to make a nice gaming comp so ive been playing X360 and the PS3. but now ive got a really nice rig and i would like to get back into comp gaming. If u guys dont mind posting some games that are your favorite. im into RTS, FPS, and RPG's. Thanks!

First things first, get The Orange Box.

ah but ive played all the half-lifes and TF is ok, i wouldnt pay for all that.

FPS: Crysis

RTS: Starcraft 2

RPG: Dragon Age

There so many to name.

BFBC2

Morrowind(yeah I know its old, but there's a nice graphic mod that makes it look very nice) and Oblivion(FCOM or at least Obscuors oblivion overhaul + MMM mods really make this game amazing. Also bunch of other great mods. If you get it be sure to get some of the graphic improvement mods as well)

The Witcher

Orange Box

That's to just name a few. List a few games you really enjoyed on the console so we can get a better idea what you like.

Alrighty

• Call of Duty
• Gears of War
• Dead Rising
• WoW (LOL i no)
• All of the Dawn of Wars

Sorry if these arent that specific, its hard for me to stay interested in a game unless it has good multiplayer, hence CoD and gears. i did get the witcher today and am thoroughly enjoying it. I also have SC2

FPS: Crysis

RTS: Starcraft 2

RPG: Dragon Age

He is absolutely right, any PC gamer would MUST have Starcraft 2, its just that good, you could also try the new Dawn of War coming out, I hear thats pretty good too. As for Dragon Age, its really fun, I dont like it cuz im freaked out by the giant spiders in there (yes I know they are just pixels). Crysis is also pretty fun. Here are some more;

FPS: Bad Company 2, Operation Flashpoint (its very realistic but some people dont like it), Medal of Honor Pacific Assault

RTS: Company of Heroes (highly recommend it), Dawn of Discovery, Tropico 3 (a fun city building game)

RPG: Fallout 3, I don't know many RPGs but I hear the Fallout 3 is pretty fun.

Others (these are some that I like): Sims 3, Tropico 3, Civ 5

Hope this helps, Good Luck

EDIT: Don't forget about your PS3 and 360, some pretty sweet titles coming out for both, and Dead Space 2 is gonna be amazing, its a Thrid-Person Shooter though

Thanks for all the suggestions guys. one more question. any good horror games? im dying to play something scary. I own the first dead space and was not that interested in the 2nd. i loved RE:outbreak and condemned.

amnesia: dark descent, painkiller + BooH, fear + extraction point + perseus mandate (12 bucks on steam :o)

the path (more of psychologically messed up rather than horror)

and its not so much horror as it is graphic.. dragon age: origins

The witcher

ME2

DA:O

Starcraft 2

Crysis

BFBC2

Mirrors edge (its so much better on PC)

L4D 2

Amnesia

Dirt 2 (graphics)

Mount and Blade Warband (fun multiplayer--especially with mods)
