My preferences go out towards anything action-oriented, but feel free to surprise me.

Get S.T.A.L.K.E.R - Shadow of Chernobyl. Oh it's got action. More challenging and rewarding action than most. But there's also free roaming exploration, and it can be the most atmospheric and frightening game you will play. The devolopers managed to create a world immersive both in its gritty Eastern Europe authenticity, and in its reality distorting special effect set pieces. Certain moments of STALKER will stay in my gaming memory for a long long time to come.

Jam it back in, in the dark.
