I'm just recently starting to get into PC gaming and I'm getting a few games: Counter Strike: Source and Battlefield 2. I just want to know your opinion on what shooter games, mainly FPS, I should get.

If you want some pretty generic but pretty good ones, try Quake 4 and Painkiller. They're both cheap and easy to find.

If you want a couple of the best the genre has check out Doom II, Half-Life and Quake 4 for singleplayer and Team Fortress 2 and CS:S for Multiplayer.

Those aren't very realistic (except for America's Army). I'd check out Operation Flashpoint from GoG.com.

Well I mean they're borderline realistic. You know? Not like futuristic and stuff.

And okay. Thanks.

Since you have Counter Strike Source, install the Insurgency mod from Steam

Yeah, I love Tom Clancy. But I haven't played any of his PC games. Only his Xbox and 360 games.

Everything from Valve is guaranteed good. Team Fortress 2, Half Life, Half Life 2, also there are a ton of good mods for Half Life and Half Life 2. It's a good time to start a PC collection.

Yes, Valve make high quality games.. however Steam is another matter..... took me 4 hours to get Portal to work on it as it would keep trying to download updates I already had..then the update would stop and freeze at 29%...

If you have a relativley high end machine I would recomend Call of Duty 4. It offers alot of fun single player gaming. And when you feel you are ready you can make the jump to the really fun multiplayer game.

In every "what game should I get" thread, the one universal answer is always the same.

If you don't already have it, GET DEUS EX. NOW.

if your looking for realistic, be sure to check out operation flashpoint 2 when it comes out.

first off, you MUST get the orange box. everyone here will advise you to, and its for a reason.

i advise you try the cod 4 demo first, the linear style isnt for everyone (though it is for most;))

if you want a western game, get call of juarez, it also has fantastic graphics.

crysis is also a must play. forget about the graphics, the gameplay is awesome.

Check out a game called Borderlands..it's not out yet but it is looking quite interesting. Another thing, if you are just starting in PC gaming check out some of the links under my sig and educate yourself about DRM and SecuROM.
