Games I would recomend cause i alreday own them:
:arrow: Half Life 2 (also CS: Source)
Really great game but cant play Half life 2 on my computer but Source is really good and you should really play it if you are intrested in Online Shooters.
:arrow: MVP Baseball 2005
Indepth Dynasty and other great mods. Better sport game than Nba live 2005
Thats about all the games i play on my computer, and those are the good ones.

I used to play CS, and unless they have made Source 1000x better, than do not play Source. Play 1.6 instead, Source is/used to be terrible.

If you got PS2, I strongly recommend Gran Turismo 4, the best racing game you ever experience.

GTA: San Andreas
Sid Meier's Pirates: Live the Life

Along with NBA Live 2005, they've been my favourite games in the last 12 months. Funnily enough, they were all released around the same time.

That is true, 1.6 is better than source but i thought Lpasso wont like games with old graphics.

Thanks for the tips guys. I only have PC. And some of the games you named, either I played already (Madden), got bored (CS), don't like type of the game (Borecraft, KoToR, Heroes), or I can't buy (MVP, ESPN). So, the only game which is available is Pro Evo Soccer and it's most probably that I'll take that one. Thanks again guys (Y) .

If you enjoy button mashing two games I enjoyed were Dynasty Warriors(any edition) and the newish X-Men game.

I play Dark Age of Camelot and Horizons whenever i have some money for the monthly payment.

MVP baseball is real solid...by far EA's best sports title(imagine saying that 2 years ago :lol: )

Pro Evolution Soccer is an amazing game. You should play it. Also, remember to patch it if you can. (you can probably search for patches, I think Wolf patch is probably the best...google "wolf patch pro evolution soccer" or something.) That way you get all the official stuff.
