recommend me some non FPS games

all of my games at the moment are FPS games, but i get far to competitive when i play FPS, i need something relaxing to play after work when im tired and easily angered

i tried to play hl2 deathmatch a minute ago but just got angry the second someone shot me in the back on spawning and can never stop checking the scoreboard to see where i am etc even though i opened the game for a laugh i ended up closing it in 5minutes

any good games that arent easy to get competitive in but arent so slow that they'll make me fall asleep?

i was thinking of trying something RTS like but i cant think of any good ones other than command and conquer and ive already played through most of them

cheers

i know what you mean I have been a FPS player for years but long for a game I can dip in and out of when I want to relax, monthly payouts a no no, as I might not touch for weeks at a time

I completed guildwars got factions but hated it and that takes a lot of teaming up and you can wait >1/2 looking for a group i know there is henchmen but you try doing THK with hench !

thinking I might like X3 probably going to get it once the Red Orchestra freebie is up

yea i completed GW as well and factions just isnt the same, havent completed it yet but never have the urge to go and play it, think its the way the story on the first one, it sort of captured my attention but the factions story is very dull and slow

when is supreme commander out? that looks like a game i might be interested in, im not much of a space game person tbh so i doubt id like x3 but..you never know

cheers a couple of good suggestions that i will no doubt try, im also looking at getting command and conquer tiberian sun at the moment, used to love that game and havent played it in ages

id like to play emporer battle for dune again but for some reason it doesnt install

gets to the end and crashs (apparently something to do with XP)
