I'm looking to buy another game out of boredome. My two most recent games have been Bioshock + Supreme Commander: Forged Alliance. I don't want COD4. Any ideas?

Crysis is awesome, dont remember what your computer specs are but it takes quite a bit.
ive heard a lot of good about COD4, any reason why you dont want it?

Q6600 , 8800 GTS 640MB sitting in my box now, 4GB of ram.
Why I don't want it? I dunno.. I feel like it's too similar to battlefield 2 which I also have.

any BLizzard game I was OBSESSED with starcraft for about 4 years. And then i became incredibly infatuated Diablo 2 for about another 2. Never got into warcraft though. C&C Renegade was one of the best games i ever played online but they shut it down.

It's not new, but "Far Cry" is one of my favorites... MASSIVE landscapes and pretty fun.
Red Alert 1 and 2 are two more time killers...
Max Payne series, GTA Vice City...

I say everyone installs C&C Gold 95 and we play online.
Or I can destroy everyone in Tiberian Sun Firestorm.
COD4 is awesome... competitive play for the PC is very nice, and quite intense. It'll die soon due to the announcement of COD5.
BF2 is dead. There are no more vehicle servers (theres like roughly 200 servers now, and its all infantry only), there use to be roughly 3000+ servers before COD4 came out... carpet bombing on a 64 player server was awesome. Plus, after aquiring the 3 star rank, it got REAL boring lmao
UT3 is ok... not much online play because it was released a week after COD4.
Crysis is meh... i need 2 keyboards to use all the damn controls.
BF3 (the demo at least) is slated for release in mid November, which will run on the Frostbite engine, which is what powers BF:Bad Company for the console. Im so ****in psyched about that.

Somewhere in the bottom of some cardboard box in my basement I actually have that... for the MAC. Badass game it was though, I think I'm gonna fire up C&C again soon... forgot how fun it is.

I picked up the Orange Box last year and just got around to finishing Episode 2 myself. Although I didn't play the graphics to their full potential, I was pretty impressed with the game. It had an awesome mix of action, adventure, and puzzle solving. It was a pretty funny game at some points to. I can't wait to see an Episode 3.

I was definitely thinking of (actually) buying this game. Is it worth spending money on?

If your a starcraft junkie try out age of empires(not the newest one) and star wars galactic battle grounds(expansion is the clone campaign) I acquired these a little while back and they are dam near as good as starcraft
Quake 3 team arena(total online play) is another awesome game that you can acquire and halo 2 pc edition is decent
Quake 3 team arena(total online play)
I was a complete competition junky with that game when it came out (i was 15 then). I even went to local LAN centers where I eventually received a # rank. Dunno how they did the ranks back then tho, all I know is that I pwned face.

i didn't like it. have it for the gamecube. i didn't really play it all that much, it starts out really slowly and just about bored me to death.

I used to play Return of Castle Wolfenstein and then moved on to Wolfenstein Enemy Territory. Played them both religiously until the computer i bought took a crap. Wanted to try Quake Wars and a few others. Team Fortress 2, battlefield, CoD and stuff.
