Any recommendations on what's out / around that's good?

I was thinking of Op:Flashoint, but it's too expensive (£35).  Not sure what else, so I'm wondering if anyone has any recommendations... I already decided against a 'traditional' FPS like wolfenstien, AVP2 or Soldier or Fortune... not sure what I want.  Something fun, though... maybe an RTS with a skirmish mode?

Suggestions, anyone ?

IL-2 Sturmovik/Grand Theft Auto 3/Elder Scrolls III/AvP 2

Fun games, all.

I thought of GB, but it's too expensive(£30) for a revamped Age of Empires engine... plus the Ep 2 and 3 stuff is obviously held back.

You wont be able to get a good new game for under £30.

I got FS1 and FS2 in a pack together for £9.99  
Unless you mean new as in 'just released' and 'for the PC' then you're unfortunately correct.

Are you only considering PC games Aldo? Do you have a console/gameboy?

New did imply newly released

No...any decent game  Pref. after FS2 to be reasonably up-to-date... but I'm only willing to pay £20 or, under - maybe £30 at a pinch, assuming the games nice & moddable.

Um...I have a Gameboy Colour, which i never play, and my brother has a Ps2, but he'll probably move out... so Pc only, I guess.

On the same topin, is Echelon any good?  Saw it for 15 quid, but the reviews I've seen have been a bit divided.

IL-2 Sturmovik. You want it. Now. Go get it.

Wait for Unreal Tournament 2003 to come out. Or if you want something now, get Medal of Honor: Allied Assault, which should be fairly cheap by now. (last I saw it was $30, but that was some months ago)

the 158th version of fs2 when its released and best of all, it'll be free *gasp!*



ok, so it was a shameless pimp, but hey, what did you expect?  in all seriousness, Tiberian Sun with or without the Firestorm expansion is one of the better RTS games around (the best of the C&C series if you ask me) and you might try Rogue Leader

Morrowind or

if you don't want to spend too much (eg=old games) and looking for rts', there is the myth serie...
3d environment, nice plot(fantasy), no collecting resources/building stuff, just military strategy, and a lot of em
i played at the first two, loving em, there is a third one, full 3d like warcraft3, when in the first two the units where 2d sprites,
the big problem of the first one was the bad ia, enhanced a lot in the second one
of the same genre there are also ground control, full 3d, nice but little annoying in my opinion, shogun: total war, very very nice as i've heard but not full 3d, and a Dune game (the title was emperor: battle for dune or something like that) that i don't know about
enjoy:)
