The only reason I haven't got it yet is because I lost 2 years of my life to Diablo 2. 3 is bigger, better, flashier, and MMO... I don't know that anyone would ever see me again!

The one I've been playing most recently is Space Marine, which has absolutely blown my mind with how smooth the graphics are, but how pretty they are too, especially considering the machine that I'm running it on. If he's not into blood & guts games, then I highly recommend Portal, or one of the sequels. They're all about using your brain to work out how to escape from a "research" facility. Good fun, and really make you think.

He's the classic "man who has everything", including a bitchin' computer that I helped him select and which I seriously envy: 2 huge monitors, 8 gigs of RAM and a 2 gig video card that demanded a power supply upgrade. (He's heavy into graphics, hence the video card.) One thing he doesn't have is video games, other than the Tiger Woods golf game. So I thought I'd get him a game. I don't even have one game and know nothing at all about the field. Ideally, I'd want one that takes full advantage of that fancy video card, I've heard that Call of Duty is very popular now. Any thoughts or recommendations?
