Like others have suggested... if you haven't played KOTOR yet, give it a shot, it's a fun game. 
FFXI is a good MMORPG, at least until the 50s, then it's a pain in the ass... but it's a good game that you'll get at least a month of entertainment out of.
But i'm in a similar boat as you... no good games atm.  I'm waiting for Doom3, but who knows when it'll actually be in store shelves.  I was thinking on picking up Warcraft 3, since i haven't played that yet, and i think i saw some used copies in my local EB for sale.
