what are the must have games in general?

I'm thinking of serious sam type mass slaughter games, RPG, possibly futuristic alien type... any maybe some awesome graphic games...

RTS: Starcraft 2 + expansion, Civilization 5

TPS: Tomb Raider, Shadow of Mordor
 
Guild Wars 2 - Alien Isolation - Middle Earth Shadow of Mordor - Warframe - Planetside 2

Few of those are free to play.
 
Quite old now, but something like Doom 3 with the latest and greatest mods should be worth a look.

Hard Reset is another that fits in with the Doom / Serious Sam style of play.

Shadow Warrior (2013) - made by the same dev as Hard Reset, is also good fun.

Quake Epsilon (moddb) is superb.



Oh, another one of my favourites is Unreal. Although very old now, I still think it has plenty to offer those that like the fps genre.

My recommendation for an RPG would be Skyrim if you haven't played it. As for first person shooters, I'd say Battlefield 4 and Crysis 3 if you're looking for something with great graphics.
 
As much as Alien Isolation is a good game, it's almost the opposite of Serious Sam.

Just a heads up for the OP. It's got more hiding under desks than it has double wielding grenade launchers.

True.

I read his wants as mass salughter/rpg/futuristic alien. As in, three kinds of games rather than just serious Sam type.

Yeah, fair enough.

I think you need to have an idea of what you're getting into with Alien Isolation. Tension and atmosphere, yes, but it's also long and movement is slow. It's a top game but it's not for everyone (but then what is?).
 
Thanks for the replys just purchased dying light, wolfenstien, shadow of mordor, diabolo 3, civilisation 5, still interested in more suggestions.
 
Only thin I could suggest now is stick with those you have bought and give them a good go.

Get too many and you may just end up swapping and never giving anything a fair chance to get the most out of it.

I have soooo many games, I usually can't pick, and struggle to finish almost any games.

I agree with this. Believe it or not OP you are in an enviable position to have just a handful! It's far too easy to end up with too many games and to not give deserving games your full attention.
