Currently Far Cry. I kind of stick with one game for a while because it gets too expensive. I'd still be playing Halo (PC) if the community was still active. Other than that it'll be far cry until Halo 2 comes out for xbox.

I like all the games above, but also i do enjoy playing some of those PS2 RPG's such as Dark Alliance 2 and Chapions of Norrath. The whole tony hawk pro skater series is very enjoyable, especially with some friends. 2player on that never gets old and online play is fun. the latest one just game out, tony hawk underground 2 (THUG 2), and if your into that sort of game, that can bring some fun times.
