I need a new game

Well, now that I have my EverQuest habit kicked (hopefully), I find myself in need of another game to occupy my time.

Unfortunately, I'm so out of the loop when it comes to current games that I don't even know where to start. I just recently finished Temple of Elemental Evil, and that was pretty cool, even though it's a bit old. I'm looking for a single-player game (or multi but with single player missions) in the FPS or RPG genres. I'm currently leaning towards Delta Force: BHD (Platinum Pack) or the Call of Duty pack.

So in essence, I'm asking for a few FPS/RPG suggestions that are more or less current, and don't suck.

(Note: I don't have a console system, so it has to be a PC game.)

Bah play a Mud. Else, play Dungeon Siege.

Dungeon Siege is boring. Repetitive as hell.

Play Knights of the Old Republic if you haven't yet. Oh, and Call of Duty was kick ass, highly recommended. Kudos for playing through ToEE, the game was too buggy and bland for me.

Morrowind (Definatly get the game of the year edition, much more content)
Knights of the Old Republic
Halo (I dont like the single player campaign but many do)
Deus Ex is pretty hit and miss

Ahh yeah, I never played KoTOR...that should probably go on my short list. Is the sequel out already? I read about the sequel in CGW, and it aroused my interest. Not sure if the story interests me a great deal, but if it is a great game on its own merits, that's good enough for me.

And yes, ToEE was horribly buggy...it got to the point where I'd have to save every five minutes in case the game crapped out on me.

KoTOR has an excellent story, a lot better than the shit Lucas is shoveling us in movie format. Sequel isn't out yet, not till sometime next year. If you like RPGs this is a MUST play. Morrowind is ok, I've tried now and then to get into it but just can't seem to, there are quite a few people who love it tho. Game of the Year edition, isn't that and X-Box thing? Halo single player on PC was fun enough, never played it multi. I was unhappy that the port to PC of it didn't include the co-op campaign.

Game of the year edition includes the two expansions to the original morrowind. Both are on xbox

Yea, well he said he doesn't have a console, PC only, so to translate: Morrowing + expansions.

Game of the year edition is available on pc

Spellforce is turning out to be a pleasant diversion.

If you haven't played Neverwinter Nights or only the first one I would stuggest picking it up and the expansions. You can get the Gold version now which has the first expansion then pick up Hords for about $25. Great storyline and the replay value has been good... there is also TONS of player mods out there. From specific storylines for paladins to the more "adult" oriented tales. Personally I can't believe I never picked it up until Feb. of this year...

I'd have to agree with this suggestion. I got a lot of fun out of NWN for awhile.

Unreal 2k4, Condition Zero Deleted Scenes, need for speed underground(pc), all final fantasy's for pc are good (if u want a singfle player old school better ff11, then download snes emulator and then final fantasy 5).
