For FPS's, I'd say give F.E.A.R. a try.  If not that, try UT2004 instead.
For pure mayhem potential, I'd go with GTA:SA.
For TBS's Civ 4 and GalCiv2 are good picks.

I might think of more later...

I think they recently released a free, multi-player-only version of F.E.A.R recently. Haven't got around to trying it myself yet.

I like Heroes V!

I can't say much about IV, because when I played it I stacked 50 black dragons and then when I was about to attack I had this strong sense of Deja Vu, and I said to myself "Hey, didn't I do that before" and that's when it occurred to me that yes. I have been doing the very save thing since Heroes I...

Although from what I heard the game sucked anyway.

But the point is - this doesn't happen in Heroes V.
The other units no longer become obsolete when you get your level 7 units. The units are all pretty well balanced and almost every unit has some kind of special power.

Also I really like the campaign, the story is interesting and fun, and the characters are good.
In fact that's also my problem with the campaign - the elves are the snobbish stupid tree shuggers sissies we all know they are, and so I REALLY HATE MY HERO in the elves missions. This is why I currently can't bring myself to finish the last of the elves missions. Smiley
I mean, by Primus, the only reason Findon have survives this far is because the annoying mission objective "Findon must survive".

Anyway - great game!

Dead rising fits that genre more than SA i would say. Saints Row also supasses SA.
