#6. Unreal Tournament 3

Epic Games latest entry in their long running multiplayer shooter series supposedly has experienced lower sales on the PC version than expected and that's a shame. For our money, this game (published by Midway) has more content and more stuff to do than any other shooter on the market at the moment. From great looking art design to a huge amount of maps, vehicles and just flat out fast-paced and fun gameplay, UT3's main failing is that it's basically just UT 2003/2004 with some improved graphics and AI. However, we don't think that's a bad thing considering how good the previous games in the series turned out. If you haven't picked up Unreal Tournament 3 yet you are missing out on some of the most fun you can have with your keyboard and mouse.

#5. World In Conflict

In a year filled with a bunch of new and great strategy games, Massive Entertainment and Sierra managed to top all of them with this impressive looking and playing title that puts the emphasis on "action". This is a game for people who hate RTS titles; no resource management and no trying to coordinate massive amounts of units; just some impressive squad-based action combat set in an alternative timeline when the Soviet Union invades the US. Kudos also to Massive for continuing to support this title soon after it was released with new maps, features and mod tools.

#4. Crysis

We really thought that Crytek and EA's long awaited sci-fi shooter would be the game to beat in 2007. The truth is that no game as heavily hyped as this title became before its release could fulfill our huge expectations. The fact that it came darn close in doing so is an accomplishment in itself. The game’s strengths are an impressive single player experience for one half of its length, along with elements of open-world gameplay, great AI programming, a surprisingly deep multiplayer mode in Power Struggle, and of course the best PC graphics that anyone has seen in some time. Only the flawed second half of the game's single player campaign and most importantly its super high hardware system requirements kept this game from being ranked higher on our list.
