Best computer games?

Just wondering what some of the best computer games are out there... finally got a copy of Windows XP on the new computer and I'm ready to go. I'm not really into first person shooter games, but mainly strategy games. Since I've been out of the gaming scene for quite some time, I have no clue which games out there are good or bad... any suggestions?

Good luck man. I haven't played PC games in a long time, but it seems like just about everything I see is a FPS game. I stick to console games.

Rise of Nations for real time strategy. Kinda combines real time and turn based elements, but mostly real time heh.

I hate you even more now.. I made my car run something like low 11's and I tried dropping it into neutral at the end of a race.. instead I got 65% engine damage and lost 264 HP.. and I'm broke and can't repair it

Ok...so I tried out the game too. What the hell? You can only get a Civic? I'm supposed to run that against a Viper? Everything else looks locked....and no way am I paying for a game like this to "unlock" all the other cars.

haha, it is a very addicting game. and no gt40 they arent really locked. You have to earn money to get the other cars. You race against the slow computers and against the slow people on the internet. You dont have to race against vipers at all if you dont want too.
