Be more specific, what type of things do you like? The PC gaming market is very deep. For instance, if I'm playing a racing game or madden -- console any day. However, gaming can be so much more complex on a PC. It WILL be frustrating if you don't have the card (or internet connection) to keep up with it in case of internet gaming.

If you're looking for a strategy game, I'm a fairly big fan of Sid Myers Civilization. Pretty intense game. As I've said in other threads, Im a fan of MMO's (WoW, etc, but these can be bad news if you have a life =p), warcraft 3 is still fun (the custom maps are where the fun comes from now, things such as defense of the ancients gets more play than the actual warcraft part).

If you narrow down what genres you like, I could probably suggest something. Most games have some sort of demo, or if you know where to look a free copy (Ive done it before to see if I wanted to spend the cash on the game, but never leave them installed more than 2-3 days). If you're interested in trying WoW, send me a PM and I can give you a free account for (I THINK) a month for you to test it out.

Edit: Also, if you're interested. Myth II is a great game -- and it's free. The myth series is what Bungie did before MS bought them out and they made halo. Considering it was released in 1998 and I'm still playing it today says something. By far the best game I've ever played in the depth and strategy. However, it's a bit old. The rights to the series were sold to Mumbo Jumbo who really destroyed myth 3 and they ended up giving the rights of it to the community. There's an online server run by the community too.
