With my new 1530 XPS Dell coming tomorrow I got a little excited to jump back into PC Gaming and bought some games today.

On Steam I purchased The Orange Box, Company of Heroes Gold Edition, and Call of Duty 4.

I also drove over to the store and picked up Battlefield 2 and C&C 3 Tiberium Wars.

I was thinking I might be going overboard but I've really wanted to play all of these games and now I finally get the chance. Tonight is going to be a real drag though waiting for my computer.

Welcome back to PC gaming, you picked some good titles, you should have some good fun. If you like RTS if recommend you give Supreme Commander a try as well.

I think you did very well.....research is the key. I got into pc gaming in the fall and bought many of the same games as you my friend. Like you i picked up The orange box, Cod 4, Company of heroes/. I also bought Farcry for 10.00 of direct2drive. Since then ive purchased the Witcher, Sins of the Solar Empire and got a free copy of Battlefield 2 from EB games. Its been a fantastic few mnts of gaming and can't wait for Fallout 3 and Spore. Never going back to Consoles again.

very, very nice, especially your steam picks. i'd add ut2k4, quake 4, f.e.a.r., bioshock, stalker, and nolf2. i'd recommend crysis as well, but i don't know if your laptop would be able to handle it.

Awesome man. My situation changed when I was hired to work in the UK. Since I wasn't going to bring my consoles and TV with me I figured it was time to upgrade my PC and now I have a machine capable of gaming that I can take with me all over the world. It feels good to know I can play all the latest and greatest and some of the other awesome games coming out in the future.
