    As I am currently getting my new laptop
    I am hunting for games

    COD 5, GTA 4 are already on my list
    but they are not out yet

    so I have decided to get 2 - 3 games during this period of time
    that are pretty cheap

    already decided to get company of heros
    any more suggestions?

    PS: I saw BF2 $7.99 on amazon and say woo!
    but do i need the expension packs?
    which if i need them it might be too $$$
    out of budget after COD + GTA :D
