My parents hate using their cedit card on the internet so I decided to start buying Visa gift cards. The maximum the store can give me is a $50 one. Anyway, I have the games I want to buy with my first card:

Source Multiplayer Pack - $29.95
Half-Life 1 Anthology - $14.95
Wolfenstein 3D - $4.95

Now I'm not sure what to get with my second card since I don't know if people still play the games frequently (Red Orchestra, The Ship, etc). I've already decided on Garry's Mod, but don't really know what else to pick. Could you guys give me some suggestions?

PS: I already have the Orange Box :)

Defcon, Darwinia, Vampire Bloodlines.., Peggle (I havn't got it yet but I tried PE and it was great), Psychonauts, Max Payne set, and Dreamfall... There is a lot more but I'm sure someone else can fill the gaps.

If you read my whole post you would see that I already have the Orange Box. I'm getting Wolfenstein because it's a great classic and there really isn't anything else for $5 that interested me.

Hmm... Since you already have the OJ Box, then I'd suggest CS:S. Awesome game. I also hear that HL2:DM and Day of Defeat: Source are both really fun too :D

I got Arx Fatalis off of Steam a while back and it is enjoyable if you're into RPGs.

I'd recommend Doom 3 and its expansion, Resurrection of Evil, in some package. I bought just those together.

I also recommend the three 3D GTA games. I'm not sure if you can get just those, though. I'm lookin' at getting the GTA package.

Buy it again, trust me it's worth it :D. Other than that, if you don't have it Civilization 4 + BTS, or Medieval 2:TW.

it depends on what type of game you want.

steam pretty much owns the pc gaming industry now, you can find anything on there.

I wholeheartedly recommend Disciples II if you're into some fantasy turn-based strategy and The Longest Journey for some point 'n click adventuring. Those two are some of the best games I've ever played.

Vampire Bloodlines I just bought, its awesome
Defcon is awesome, especially multiplayer
Darwinia is nothing short of the best indie game ever!

Woah what the hell man?! Why are you dissing Wolfenstein that game rules!

CS:S is still great and has a load of players. DOD:S, Red Orchestra, the Ship etc don't really have that many players anymore. But +1 billion to Psychonauts if you didn't get it already. And Sam and Max is good too!
