1. Crysis

Crysis is a first person action shooter set on a tropical island in the year 2020. You play as Jack Dunne a special forces Operative for the US army. You have been sent to the island to investigate an asteroid which crash landed their only to find the North Korean government got their first and have sealed off the island. Crysis prides itself for being photorealistic and one of the first true games to fully support DX10.

The game is expected out for release on November the 16^th and with many people having upgraded the whole PC just to play this game its guna be great to see if it delivers.

2. Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare

This is the first time that the CoD series has steered away from World War 2 and I must say that Activision have done a remarkable job at keeping the sense of organised chaos and atmosphere that all the other CoD games have had.

To spice up the multiplayer element they have included a create-a-class which as you progress in multiplayer and rank up you will unlock more options and abilities to upgrade your character with these can include such abilities like a faster running speed, explosive detections to a last stand mode where you get to fire off a final few rounds before you die. With the ability to also upgrade your weapons this should spice things up between the CoD fans.

It has just been released in America and is due out for release on November the 9^th for the rest of the world.

3. The Orange Box

This has got to be the barging of the year for both Xbox 360 owners and PC owners. It includes Half-Life 2, Episode 1, Episode 2, Team Fortress 2 and Portal all for a small sum of £22 you can’t get much better than that. If you already own Half-Life 2 and Episode 1, Valve has given the option to give these games away as gifts to your friends.

I definitely recommend picking this up because you will not be disappointed. With the new addition of earning achievements in-game, it has instant replay value.
