Best PC game ?

[herbage11]

Looking to buy a PC game either now or in about a month to take up some time while my wife is gone this summer. What do you all think would be the best choice? I dont like RPG and I am looking at Medal of Honor Allied Assualt and Castle of Wolfenstien. Heard they are both great. Which do you think is better? Or is there a different game out there that is better? (maybe Tiger Woods golf is good?) And finally if neither is there a game coming out by about June that is going to be great? If this needs moved/locked for wrong forum I am sorry.
thanks all

MOHAA is much better than RTCW. MOHAA is very good. Tony Hawk 3 is great, and GTA3 is expected soon, and that should be great as well.

I say go for either Doom or Leisure Suit Larry

In a stark contrast to what MadThumbs said I would have to say that RTCW is so much better than MOA I can't even begin to tell you. I bought MOA after everyone saying how great it was.. it sucks. Any game where I can shoot a guy with a rifle at point blank range and the guy 10 feet away never even turns around is garbage in my book. That happens so often its not even funny. Not to mention the fact that the game just really isn't that exciting. Go with RTCW and don't look back!!

I have both MOH:AA and RTCW, and I enjoy both, but I give a slight nod to MOH...just a fantastic game, although a bit tough in spots. (Sniper mission, anyone?) I'm a hockey fan, so I play NHL2002 a ton, as well as THPS3 and right now I'm playing Max Payne (not brand new, but awesome...almost done).

I really like Max Payne and am currently enjoying RtCW.

I suggest you (1) download the DEMOS (to get a feel for the game you are considering) and (2) check out Hot Deals to get the best price on the game you decide on.
