I needed 1gb of ram and I only had 512mb =( So I just played SC/D2 till eventually my video card died and this PC went to ****. I had my PS3 so I didn't care.

Anyway now that I have a quad core + 5770 + 4gb ram i'll be able to play all/most games on some sweet settings too (1440x900 native res).

Here is a list of games that i have not played yet/want to/will be playing. Feel free to add some that you think I might like (and that I have probably missed) and also if any of these are multiplayer, let me know if you want a game or play with me!

I like RTS, RPG, FPS games really (that covers most of them).

In no particular order:
Company of Heroes - All expansions. This game looks awesome. I love WWII games and ofc RTS games. Have been wanting to play this for a long long time!

Torchlight - Diablo clone, fun single player game, lots of spells and **** and easy/relaxing game to play.

Borderlands - Lots of great writeups and reviews. Decent singleplayer but im hoping I can co-op with some of you guys. Ill have a mic too so you can hear me all english and posh and ask me for tea.

Crysis (and warhead) - Great game to benchmark my computer. Looking forward to the graphics more then anything. Will blow me away as im used to like CS 1.6 graphics (not joking).

CounterStrike: Source - I actually own this game and used to play it ages ago but havent for ages so will be nice to play it again. Used to be p. good, hopefully play with some of you guys.

Far Cry 2 - Nice graphics and I beleive I'll be able to max out everything and still achieve 60fps which is the only reason ill play this, like a benchmark but its a decent game. No idea if it has MP or not.

Empire: Total War - Game looks beautiful and ive always wanted to play Rome but never could =(

Heroes of Newerth - Loved dota, this is a dota clone but kept pretty close to the original. Again hopefully play some of you guys. League of Legends is another dota clone but it looks gay =/

Dragon Age: Origins - One big hit release. Made by bioware who made Baldur's gate which is like the best game ever, i'll have to play this with settings nice and high!

Battlefield: Bad Company 2 - Game looks amazing. Its in beta so i'll try that out first. I play Bad Company 1 on the xbox with a very very good sound setupd + 50inch screen. The sound effects are unreal, never heard anything better. Be playing lots of this online hopefully!

So is there anything else you think i'd enjoy? I've covered the really big/popular releases. Maybe there are some older games that i'd enjoy that I wouldn't have been able to play on? (anything past the CoH release really)

p.s. Dont recommend Call of Duty: MW2 or Fallout 3 because I have those on my PS3! No sports games either as those are for my PS3 too.
