Recommend me a game to rent/buy.

If you liked Civ & Starcraft, I'd recommend Rise of Nations

How is the Total War series? Civilization 3 (big fan of the series but never got this one [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img])?

I was actually thinking about RoN. Heard some good things about it. Does it offer online multiplayer? And is there like a gold pack I can buy that has the expansion packs included?

Yeah, if you haven't played RoN, it's a great choice.
No doubt you can get a good deal on it these days, too.

It's unfortunate RoN was overlooked by a lot of people.
If it had said "Sid Meier" on the box, things probably would have been different.

Frozen Throne is not to WarCraft 3 as Brood War was to StarCraft. [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img] If you've already experienced the WC3 gaming experience, I wouldn't bother with upgrading unless you're really into it.

WoW monthly fee is around $11, I think, with 1 month, 3 month, or 6 month plans. As far as I know, there aren't any trial offers going on right now, but you never know. Check out www.worldofwarcraft.com for more details.

Oh, and I have yet to see this game not suck in a person for at least a few weeks of their lives. So, don't say I didn't warn you. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

CIV 3 is AWESOME. I'd have recommended that first if you didn't say in your original post that you were a fan of the CIV series.

Agreed.

And FWIW, SimCity4 is a great way to waste a week or two.

As far as console games go, I'd pick up the Zelda Colllectors edition either from gamestop or ebay. It's got Zelda, Link, and two from n64.

I already own Zelda 1 and 2 for the NES and Ocarina of Time for 64. I have no interest in Majora's Mask.

I'm thinking about the Megaman Collector's Edition that came out recently though..

That's sort of a weird thing to say, given the fact that you like other Zelda games.

Why don't you have any interest in it?

It's actually a pretty solid game.

Half-Life 2 easily

Prince of Persia: Warrior Within

Best game I've ever played.
