Age of Wonders 2: shadow something is a good turn based strategy game. It is a expansion pack that is standalone, so its quite good value.

I picked up at Amazon:
F1 Challenge '99 - '02 $19.99
Freedom Fighters $15.99
IL 2 Sturmovik: Forgotten Battles $19.99

F1 reminded me of Papyrus Indycar racing from back in the day. IL 2 reminded me of Aces over Europe. Freedom Fighters seemed like a good buy considering the ratings and price.

If you like shooters, you must not miss Call of Duty. Easily my favorite PC game of the year.

I had been out of PC gaming for a little while myself. Now that I'm back in action the the first game I picked up was Max Payne 2. Sweet game. Very short but has some decent replay value.
