Of the Homeworld series you should try Homeworld: Cataclysm.
It's some kind of stand alone version 1.2 of the original Homeworld so to speak.
It uses the same engine but has a totally different story.
The balance in the game is way better though.

This one might be a bit old for you but here it is anyways. Magic Carpet 2! (1996 lol)
Man I wish they would make a modern sequel of that game.

SoF is an awsome FPS, the first time i played it i was like: WOW **** JUST HAPPENED?! (im 17 now so i was pretty young when i played it :P).
An RPG to recommend is Silver, it doenst recuire much of a PC and its storyline is pretty damn good.

MGS PC was fantastic! MGS2 PC sucked. ;)


I thought MGS on PC was dreadful... the controls were console-ported. Boo! :(

But i will echo your suggestion on Hitman; Hitman 2 was probably the best gameplay wise.

Well Metal Gear Solid would load, but when I went to load a game it would ask me to "Insert Disk 1" which I didn't have. I eventually gave up on it. Does anyone know how to get it running in XP? I would really like to take this game on.

I downloaded a few more games:

System Shock 2 (was awsome concept, graphics got to me after a while)
Outwars (got boring after a while)
Syndicate Wars (couldn't be #ucked)
Quarantine (a cult classic)
Warhammer EPIC 40 000 (simple but REALLY close to table top)
Sanitarium
XCOM: Terror in the Deep

Hitman 2 (Playing at the moment)
Hitman Contracts

Next game I am after is XIII (comic animation shooter)

Did you already play Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic? That's my favourite new-ish RPG.

I just picked up Star Wars: Best of PC. 5 full games(Battlefront, Empire At War, Jedi Outcast, KOTOR & Republic Commando) and a 14 day trial for Galaxies.

ACtually, no i never thought of that. I am a bit hesitant in getting Star Wars games. I must admit though, I think it is my destiny.

Thanks.

I just started playing The Longest Journey. It's from 1999, I think. I kind of miss the old school adventure games, but it is just about a bygone genera. It only has one resolution, though, 640x480.
