..the good first person shooters this season? I would have thought it would have been the right time of year to release something interesting.
Seems like squad based or RTS games are the closest things this Christmas.
I need a good shooter to shed my frustrations (solo cause I really suck at MP's such as UT-don't have the time to develop the skills of a 14 year old)

I was really skepticle of R6 vegas but I went ahead and bought it. I'm a major tacticle fanatic and this game is pretty damn good. As for the amount of good FPS's that have been generated this year has been sad but 2007 should be a good year.

I've played that quite a bit, it doesn't keep me from getting my ass fragged frequently.
I want something with a decent story, lots of ground to cover, good puzzles to figure out.
Well at least by the time new stuff comes out I'll have finally done a massive upgrade I've got planned for January.

Oblivion can be considered an FPS right?

So it's worth investing cash in? I haven't really played much in the way of tactical games.
I am trying to muddle my way through Splinter Cell DA, but I find it a little awkward.

I thought Oblivion was rpg. I do have a copy of morrowind around I could try.

R6: Vegas should be a relief in comparison to the frustrations in Double Agent.
