Any must-have games?

[Nightfirecat]

I'm building a gaming computer this summer (it's good enough to play any game released as of now) and I'd like to know of any games that I should have...

please give me suggestions on good ones that are T/E, not M and that (hopefully) are not FPSes...

the few games I have are Age of empires II, and age of wonders...

you can suggest FPS/M games, but I'd like if you could give some detailed report of it. (oh, just forgot-- I'm gonna be running on Windows XP, so operating system shouldn't be a problem)

Half-Life 2, one of the best games ever. I'm not sure what you want in terms of a detailed report. Even though you say you don't want an FPS, this game is just wonderful.

Edit: Starcraft.

kay-- thanks...

by detailed report, I just kinda mean something about the game (if it's not a widely known obvious game...)-- something to describe it, explain why it's rated M... something like that.
Starcraft is good.. but I have that for N64.. lol-- I think I'll stick with that.

Starcraft is much better for computer, you should just pick it up for ten bucks along with Brood War because of how fun the Map Setting games are. ie. Evolves, Golems, Penguin Wars, Risk, Simpsons.

Half-Life 2 is very much overrated. But if you were to buy it, get this. http://www.amazon.com/Holiday-Collec.../dp/B000IVFVVY

Thats:
HL2
HL2: EP1
HL2: Deathmatch
CounterStrike: Source
HL1: Source
HL1: Source Deathmatch

I got it from staples for 60$ CAN.

If you like AOE, you'll like Civilization 4. It's a great turn based strategy game.

Supreme Commander is a top-notch RTS as well.

That video was an utter failure. I can't believe I sat through 75% of that.

I like FF1 a lot but for some reason, no one else seems to share my passion. The Golden Sun series is pretty solid though and if you like RPGs, you'll have fun with that game.
