Just finished Half Life 2. Now, I am wondering what to get next.

Vampire: Bloodlines? Anyone played it?

Lord Of The Rings-Battle For Middle Earth. Is this the RTS? Any good?

I am limited to PC games since I have no console. I like FPS, RPG, Adventure. Your suggestions would be welcome.

Vampire got a mediocre review from pcgamer. It said they didn't use the Source engine to full potential and for a game that was complete and waiting for HL2 to come out, it looked unfinished and unpolished.

Don't know what else you've played, but here's a short list of games that I've enjoyed on the PC in the past year or so...

Mafia - 9/10 - GTA3 style action
Far Cry - 9/10 - FPS
Chaser - 8/10 - FPS
Doom 3 - 8/10 - FPS
Savage - 8/10 - RTS/FPS/Online
Sims 2 - 8.5/10 - uhh... sim?
Chrome - 7/10 - FPS
UT 2004 - 9/10 - Online FPS
XIII - 8/10 - FPS
Call of Duty - 9/10 - FPS
Painkiller - 8.5/10 - FPS

World of Warcraft just came out... that's supposed to be good or something.

I'd also have to go with:
FarCry
Painkiller
Doom 3
Call of Duty

Look for:
S.T.A.L.K.E.R.

An older game I just started playing and really love is Fallout: Tactics

World of Warcraft is an excellent way to eat up vast chunks of your time. I'm not even a big MMORPG fan but this one has sucked me in.

World of Warcraft sucked me back into the world of MMORPG's. I tried the beta with no intention of ever buying, and ended up liking it so much that I bought it at launch.
