I haven't played on the PC in awhile, but now that I have a newer rig I should be able to run games better. I need help deciding which ones I should get first; above are some of the ones I was thinking about getting. My specs: Athlon 64 X2 5000+ Black Edition, 2 gigs of RAM, XFX Geforce 9800 GTX, and Windows XP. Thx in advance

If you played TF 2 then CoD 4, the others are meh imo. UT3 is very good for the mods that will be made for it and Crysis is decent and it has one or two awesome mods that will be released for it, but not anytime soon :(.

Of the four you mentioned, Crysis is BY FAR the best. Oblivion sucks. UT3's good but it's just a prettier version of UT2K4. Bioshock's good, but it sucks compared to Crysis. So get Crysis.

Pretty lousy list. But out of those, I'd go with Crysis.

Orange Box has only one multiplayer game, it's still easily two or three times the length of bioshock single player wise. Also,out of the games you listed, Bioshock is the best

I say Crysis if you want a good action game and Bioshock if you want a story that is deeper than just "Save the world". It ties politics and economics into the story so if you are interested in themes in your games' stories then Bioshock is the game for you (its too bad that pretty much nobody actually looks deeper into the Bioshock story).

Definitely get Crysis. Lots of replay value there (plus it comes with sandbox which just increases the replay value). Also, Call of Duty 4 is good also (not great like everybody else says IMO, but still good). BioShock, FEAR, and STALKER are all nice too. Here is my list in order of what to get:

Crysis

STALKER

FEAR

BioShock

Call of Duty 4
