Well I saw you had F.E.A.R. so definitely go for the expansion to that, F.E.A.R. Extraction Point, its really good too. Um I saw a few RTS titles including LotR: BfME II, so go try the expansion to that, Shadow of Angmar.

Other than those 2 expansion packs, you should definitely trytheseRTS games.Starcraft and Starcraft: Brood War (1 of the best RTS games no matter what year it was made in), Command and Conquer III: Tiberium Wars, WarHammer 40K: Dawn of War series (extremely good series that wont lose its luster for a while).

Here are a few good FPS games that I have played before:Quake IV, SWAT series, Half Life 1 and 2 (and the rest of the whole freakin series lol, there are a lot of them, but they are definitely worth the money.), Far Cry, Doom 3.

And if you decide you want to try some online games, which I know you said you probably didnt, but Counter-Strike: Source, Americas Army (its free, trust me, anything free is fun), and the Battlefield Series is pretty good.

Hope that kinda helps you out man.

I'm curious, but why only games from the 2000's? 1980's and specially1990's games are better inspired, just my opinion.

Anyway try the lists you've been given already. Had you tried the Command & Conquer Series yet? Very good games... and with the Call of Duty series the first one is the best. We hope that the fourth one will be at least respectable.

Reason; I have probley played most of old games such games as old age of empires age of mythology entire series of Wizardry, entire series of might and magic and heros of might and magic, warcraft, icewind etc etc loads but you can suggest 1980-1990 games if you wish but i have too many games from that time 32+

Ah I see, it's always nice to see a long-time player!

There's this free tactical shooter: America's Army. From what I've seen it's pretty popular, and the best thing is that it's free. If you're into shooters, specially the tactic ones, you may like this.

Half-Life series are very good as well, but you should also try this game: System Shock 2. It's a First Person Shooter Action-RPG hybrid, and it's from 1999.

Try out these games:

  • Half-Life 2
  • Prince of Persia Saga
  • Colin McRae Rally 2005
  • Splinter Cell Saga (I don't recommend you Double Agent, unless you have Inte 8Core and 4 GF8800)
  • Return to Castle Wolfenstein
  • Star Wars Republic Commando
  • The Chronicles of Riddick - Escape From Butcher Bay
  • W40k Dawn of War Saga
  • Deus Ex (the first,the second is not so good)
  • Peter Jackson's King Kong
  • GTA Saga
  • Freedom Fighters
  • Clive Barker's Undying
  • Call of Cthulhu - Dark Corners of the Earth
  • Brothers in Arms Saga

All these games are cheap (less of $20) and great. Especially Prince of Persia, Splinter Cell, HL2, STALKER and Freedom Fighters.
