If you like Real Time Strategy/Tactical/Civilization games, and if you don't already have them, I'd recommend Battle for Middle Earth 1/2, Age of Empires III and the Asian Dynasties, and Medieval: Total War or Rome: Total War.

HALO 2 recently came out, if its not only for vista, get it.
Gamestop doesnt seem to provide any recent PC game titles, so I dont really know what to reccomend.

Halo 2 has been out.. For over a year I think, and it's only for Vista and I have it for Xbox, it was Horrible. Halo 1 was way better. And I like RTS', I might check those out..

I know a great RTS World War II game called Company of Heroes.
I highly recommend it if your into strategy games, my friends convinced me to get it, even though i didn't like WW2 or any of the games about it, and now im looking up stuff about WW2 on the internet and highly anticipating the point where we get to that in my world history class

all because of this really awesome strategy game! so yeah anybody who likes WW2 games or Strat games gets my stsmp of recommendation, which really isn't worth much...

and all the other games i'd recommend you either already have or someone else recommended

Well if you like RTS get C&C 3 and/or Stronghold 2 and Warcraft III. My FPS recommendations are Combat Arms (It's free but is awesome =D)
Battlefield 2 is good if you can get it to work (Dang you Punk Buster I fixed that prob btw I guess Far Cry 2 is
good Portal and CoD 4/5. If your looking at RPG/Adventure then get World of Warcraft and/or Guild wars. As for adventure, you might want Assassins Creed. Those are some suggestions so.

Quantum of solace
Not a James Bond fan..
Mirror's edge
Looks nice, but, doesn't seem like my kind of game.
Left4Dead
I've not seen it, but I highly doubt I'll get it judging from the name.
Farcry2
Possibly.. But doubt it.
Need for Speed Undercover
I might just look in to getting this.
Garry's Mod
Has a high possibilty..

Thanks for the recomendations everyone. :D

And Left 4 Dead is a zombie survival horror game. Judging by the trailer, I'm even interested in it.
