If you had $150 to buy 3 games, which 3 would they be?

[Wolfshanze]

Call of Duty II - Great WWII FPS
Far Cry - Great FPS with superb scenery
Star Wars: Empire at War - Newly released RTS (I already have it), fantastic space and planetary combat... you can be Rebel or Empire and it's got the Death Star. Oh, and the graphics are pretty spiffy too!

Get Lock On Modern Air Combat Gold. They have addressed so many issues since its original release. Seeing it in action is like watching a moving work of art in my opinion.

One caveat, you will probably get a bad second cd. They shipped a number of boxes out like this but will quickly replace it.

LOMAC GOLD
FS2004
and Oblivion is looking tasty..

I loved kingdom hearts, cant wait for the second! To the OP i would suggest Far Cry, COD2, and Trackmania Sunrise. Maybe throw in BF2 for intense multiplay action(since FC is only $20).

Wait for these games.

1) Quake Wars ET to play online.
2) Prey for single player experience
3) Unreal3 for all.

I would say play Deus Ex. The graphics are not great but it is still a great game.

Far Cry is a good choice. It is not the "greatest" game but still playable and the graphics are nice.

Also, if you like an atmospheric, but simple shooter I recommend Painkiller. It is like Serious Sam but with alot more attitude. Heck, even Serious Sam is not bad.

I tend to not be such a graphics whore, though, which probably puts me at odds with 90 percent of the folks who post to these forums. I did try the Darwinia demo on Steam and that looked cool so I'll probably pick that one up eventually too (looked cool as in looked cool, not as in "lots of pixel shaders).
