So, what are some good recent games?

Battlefield 1942 is indeed a cool game...despite its horrible AI (it's only fun when playing with other people)...its horrible programming (let it run for a few hours then check out how much virtual memory you have left :P )...and its horrible interface.

But it is really a fun game.

GTA3 is a really great game IF you really really really like exploring. It took me a while to become completely familiar with the first island in the game. Right...then I got to the second one....and there is one more island after that.

Each island is huge and though you have a mini map to keep track of most of the quest locations, there are many secret locations and general shortcuts that you must memorize.
