    There's UrbanTerror... it's old (Quake 3 mod) but free and very fast-paced. I like it a lot, although the players are too good for me :)

    Also check America's Army, it's sponsored by the US Army but it's not bad.

    I think i will give Alien Arena a go first, start with the A`s and work down the list.

    EDIT : Alien Arena is a bust , keep getting the error "couldn`t initialize opengl renderer" , it`s supposed to not like Vista, tried running as Administrator and compatibility mode. :mad:

    thanks.

    Combat Arms and Cross Fire comes to mind. There are so many though, those are just the last two I tried.

    Battlefield Heroes is pretty fun. You might have to wait a while to get your beta key, but once you do it's mad fun.

    Seems you own Battlefield 2, so I suggest you look into Project Reality. Its pretty much one of the most realistic combat sims out there and with the amount of teamwork and material in that game you wont get bored too quick. Keep in mind though that the game is a lot more system hungry than the original BF2.
