    RTS you say?

    Sins of a Solar Empire? Empire Total War?


    FPS you say?

    Fallout 3? Dead Space? FEAR?


    Maybe even a search of many similar threads will inspire you.

    Definately Warcraft3 and it's xpac if you don't have it. Also once you're done with it, get dota. Dota is awesome.

    Counter-Strike: Source, Left 4 Dead and Team Fortress 2 are excellent multiplayer first-person shooters by Valve, the same guys who made Half-Life 2.

    I also recommend the Unreal series. Right now for $30 on Steam, you can get the Unreal Deal pack, which includes the original Unreal Gold edition, Unreal II: The Awakening, Unreal Tournament: Game of the Year edition, Unreal Tournament 2004: Editor's Choice edition, and Unreal Tournament 3: Black edition. Every single one of these games is guaranteed to waste countless hours of your life that you will never want back. :p
