I'm bored and cheap, not a good combo. I'd like to have some suggestions for $20.00 or under games (maybe $25). No MMO's or RTS games, never liked them. Mostly shooters and action games. Below is what I already have. Looking for digital purchase like steam or Direct2Drive.

Assasins creed
All COD's
Crysis + warhead+wars
Chrnoicles of Riddick
FEAR
Fallout3
FarCry1+2
FFOW
All half lifes
L4D
Mass Effect
Bioshock
Rainbow 6 LV 1+2
Stalker's -COP
Splinter Cell DA
Saints Row 2

I've also played a lot of the bigger console based games like GTAIV, Batman AA, Halo's, etc. Thanks for your help.

Maybe checkout Torchlight, an RPG a bit like Diablo. There's a demo available on steam: http://store.steampowered.com/app/41510/

didnt any of u actualy read what he posted ? he dont like mmo or rts games and i would say that an rpg game is preety darn close to a mmorpg game, the op mainly likes shooters and action games, i wouldnt say torchlight comes under any of these catergories

Runic Games will initially release Torchlight as a standalone Single Player game, Torchlight will be released in the latter part of 2009 as a download or in box. Following the single player release, work will commence on a fully-featured MMO version.

RPG's = Ehhhhhh. Depends on style. Fallout 3 is an RPG, sort of. Mass Effect is sort of a RPG. I loved both those.

Torchlight is hack'n'slash. I have a feeling you enjoy guns in games?

thats the feeling i got, and mass effect and fallout 3 arent too heavy on the rpg side either, like something comparable to baulders gate

too bad bf2142 isnt on steam, if anything ill go for that bf2 is a bit buggy and the shooting seems waay off balance

Farcry 2 is pretty sweet.
Whole ton of guns and landscapes are almost as good as Crysis.

Yes, but the gameplay is the worst I've ever seen, not worth the money unless you love nice graphics.

Really? I thought the gameplay was awesome, especially the way guns jam and explode randomly.

Maybe it's personal preference.

I have FaryCry1 and 2 and while it wasn't good, it wasn't bad. It's a great looking game, if you like brown. Downloading BF2 complete pack now. Anymore suggestions?

I admit Farcry 1 was a little bit of a failure...

I can't believe no one said this, but Oblivion. It's 20$ on steam, and you won't be bored for a long long time. Orange Box is also essential.

I'm also going to backup torchlight. Maybe serious Sam HD?

Shattered Horizon, servers aren't full atm, but imo a fantastic game. No singleplayer though. Basically CSS in SPAAAAAAAACE.
