Please help my wife choose a game to get me for my birthday
  1 / 2    
Thinking of asking her to get me Trine (as it's cheap) plus another single player game, but which one!?

I would like one of the following but they arent out for ages: Crysis 2, XCOM, Shogun 2: Total War, HL2:EP3

Was thinking B:BC2 but not a chance with the 'new' 2D crosshair.

Any suggestions?

Thanks

Lord, grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, the courage to change the things I can, and the wisdom to know the difference.

Thanks for the reply. I have JC2 (which is great) and TR:U but not Metro 2033. Would it run on my system? I have heard it is a bit of a system hog...
