    I'm getting my first game worthy system soon, and I want to get a few new games to go along with it. I like games like HL, CSS, and Warcraft. Please recommend some new games to me.

    The system I'm getting soon is the HP 8510p with an ATI Mobility HD 2600 GDDR3.

    Thanks! :)

    AOE/AOE2:kings/conquerors/AOE3! Some of the best games ever created, well, 2: conquerors more than the others, but still. AOE series FTW!

    I was looking at that one. TF2 is a bit of a mystery to me though, I don't really get what the game is actually like. :confused:

    Bf2=Great multi game: single is good, but gets boring after while but multiplayer is great and interact with "real" pples

    CoD4=Great single game: in my opinion multiplayer wasn;t great than the bf series, but the story line is good and game play is like hl2 and other cod series.
