    alright lads,

    Usually just play COD 90% of the year. Assassins Creed has probably got the rest of my time.

    But i really sont like Blops 2, in fact its quite rubbish and i'll probably trade it in soon.

    I could go back to Modern Warfare but i'd like to try something different but something similar at the same time.
    What should i be looking at ?
    Battlefield etc ?

    That's it, come to the BF3 dark side, we have cookies and more explicit stabbings.

    You want something different so you lean towards BF3 after playing nothing but CoD?? jesus man broaden your horizon, absolute gold mine of quality games out there.

    Print this out and stick it on the wall and throw a dart at it and play that ;)

    Of course this is pc only but find 360 or ps3 equivalent

    I played the first Battlefield and i wasn't that mad about it. But by all accounts the new one is great.

    What else is worth playing out there. GTA is a game I despise so don't go there.

    get BF3 man!

    I normally tire of multiplayer games quickly but I actually have done something I've never done and bought more maps for the game in the form of buying the premium pack

    are you looking for another mutiplayer game again or a good single player?
    I'd recommend Dishonored in the single player category

    Except if the dart land on Duke Nukem Forever or Judge Dredd Vs Judge Death. They just count as getting a free throw :pac:

    A good single player lads would be preferable for a while.

    I can get BF3 later on.

    Dead space 1/2 and Mass Effect 1/2/3 are recent games i really enjoyed if you haven't played them.
    If you got a PC Diablo 3 and Starcraft 2 are excellent too

    I'm a spoiled adult with too much money to spend on games so rarely ever finish them but the above games sucked me right in with a compelling story, not so much Diablo3, think that was more of the loot hooking me in :D

    Edit: You gotta Play Deus Ex: Human Revolutions! Fav game of 2011

    Some great suggestions so far, Max Payne 3 is also a very good recent enough game and can be had for cheap.

    Was about to say...

    Would you not play something different. Anything different?

    Even Mass Effect which is almost a shooter in parts?

    Ideally i want a game that i wont get sick of after a few days.

    Something with a bit of strategy, and isnt just about shooting the guts out of anything and everything in sight.

    Get Ex-Com if you want yourself some strategy, or try the demo at least anyway

    Skyrim, maybe, I have never played it but if I was to buy one game tomorrow it would be this as I loved Elder Scrolls.

    Out of interest, what is it you don't like about GTA? I think you're the first person i've ever come across that doesn't like it.

    No I wouldnt think so, I would just jump into Skyrim anyway and maybe go back to Elder Scrolls if you wanted to then.

    I used to play them years ago, when they first came on the scene. But i found they all got fairly repetitive as the years went on.
