The big ones: Doom 3 and Half-Life 2 (mainly because I enjoyed the originals so much)

Others:

AH2 - natch!
Pacific Fighters - natch!
Knights Over Europe (I think it is supposed to be released this year, but not sure - been looking for a good modernized WW1 sim)
SH3 looks good, but I think I will pass since it doesn't have a dynamic campaign (something like Aces of the Deep would be awesome).  Also, I wish it was a USN PTO sim instead of u-boats, though I understand why you would choose them over the USN.

I am sure there will be a few others here and there that I may pick up.  Oh, and the new Splinter Cell is quite fun.

Harpoon III Multiplayer.

It might actually motivate me to not hate the Harpoon II interface.

I like the interface, what is it you dont like about it?

Its a great game, but i hope the rumors that "enthusiasts" will finish harpoon4 is true and that it will not be to many years in the future.

I loved the "look" of it all (AFAIK it was the first game to use NTDS symbology), but control just wasn't as intuitive as it was with the original game. I never did care for the hieroglyphics (although I imagine it gave the game a bit more international appeal) and I was forever assing up the mission system with missions going off to war and not being able to effectively change them to keep pace with the flow of the battle.

I always wound up going back to Harpoon Classic (after a brief affair with the good looking but rather Shallow "Fleet Command")

Have you played Harpoon3 at all?

No, i havent had the pleasure of trying H3,  but many years of H2. I like the realism of the H2 vs the classic. :)

Yeah, I have to agree. The detail for ASW was awesome! It's the one thing I miss the most about H2 over HC. I'm really trying to get into H2 again for the Multiplayer release, but I find myself playing HC on the train each day lol.

H3 is an update/giant bug fix from H2. It's the product of "enthusiasts" and I imagine the inspiration for the idea that the comunity can get H4 up and running.

(since everyone is posting eye candy... check this out! lol)
