Post Far Cry
I have been enjoying this game immensely. It's a shooter that is very challenging. Stealth is as important as accuracy. I started playing this because I really liked the Crysis demo and realized this game was by the same developers. The only negative I have is the ability to quick save. You have to reach a certain point and then the game auto-saves. If you don't reach that point you are going to have to go to the last checkpoint.

Shooters is my favorite genre (at least right now) and IMO Far Cry is the best Gametap has to offer.

BTW, if anyonethinks they have aI better suggestion for a shooter I'm willing to give it a try.

If you like the stealth stuff, you should try Hitman: Blood Money (the others are nice as well, but Blood Money tries to emphasize the stealth aspect) or Splinter Cell: Pandora Tomorrow (I think that's the one on GameTap). They both try to get you to complete your objectives without being seen or heard (although there are quite a few chances to get into the action when you need to).

Raven Shield is a good tactical shooter as well (albeit not as tactical as the earlier versions, stupid Ubisoft catering to the masses of Counter Strike losers). It's not so much stealthy as it is that you have to plan your moves and coordinate your fireteams. I played it for the longest time (probably 2-3 years) and actually created the only weapon mod for the game (although Ubisoft blocked my mod in their next patch).

There's both the original Splinter Cell and Pandora Tomorrow available on GT. (that reminds me to get back to the original at some point...)
