I'm in need of a new game to play, having beaten most of mine multiple times. Anyone have a suggestion for a good, recent game?

Are you looking for new games or old? I mean, can your computer handle the new releases? If your computer can handle it, March/April are the "holy months" for PC gaming in 2004. If you can't find a game you like, you're beyond help :D:D

Splinter Cell: Pandora Tommorow
Far Cry
UT2004
Battlefield: Vietnam
Painkiller
Nemeis of th Roman Empire
Hitman Contracts (soon)
Sacred
Colin McRae Rally 2004
Universal Combat
Lords of the Realm 3

and going a few months back you've got

Deus Ex 2: Invisible War
Prince of Persia: Sands of Time
Homeworld 2

Soldat. Independant development, 2d shooter.  Think worms + quake.  
Its been mention on HLP before i think, but its free to download (cheap to register) and the multiplayer online passes many an hour.

Well, let's see what I have:
Independence War 2
FreeSpace (both 1 and 2)
SW: Knights of the Old Republic
NWN
Baldur's Gate (1 and 2)
X-Wing Alliance
Civilization (2 and 3)
Mechwarrior 4
Mechwarrior 4 Mercenaries

There's a bunch of others, but those are the ones I've played the most. Wouldn't mind a good FPS though....

There are at least 3 good FPSs out now, 2 mutliplayer, 1 singleplayer. You also have Painkiller, which should be good good mindless fun, as well as Splinter Cell: Pandora and Deus Ex 2 which are similar to FPSs.

Check my post man, its all right there is black and white :nod: :nod:

If you've got the computer for it, FarCry looks amazingly amazing. Best graphics this side of Doom3. Well, judging from screenshots. Don't quite have the horsepower to run it just yet.

Can I add Transport Tycoon Deluxe?  If you don't quit your job/education to spend you life playing this, your a better man than I.

I'd say Oni. discovered it this week. Best game I've played in quite a while, I must say. shooter/fighting game in third person, with quite an interesting plot.

Really? I played the 2 demos a few years ago, and thought the gameplay was pretty fun. The story and characters however, made me laugh. Its like they intentionally made them cheesy...

Might try the full game sometime, if you say its good. The gameplay was very original and just flat out fun.

Hmm.... Off of the list posted earlier, UT2k4, Deus Ex 2, and HL2 are all looking rather interesting....
