Help me choose a game to play
I have a vast library of PC games. I have played many but have finished few. I am in the mood for a good action game, but nothing too complicated or overly difficult. I've started up Bulletstorm, but have a feeling I'll plow through that without much issue. I like Max Payne 3 but I keep having an issue where it loses my save game, even after a reinstall, deleting the profile folder, etc. I play for a while, exit then come back later and have to start from the beginning again, very annoying. So I'll avoid that until it gets fixed, hopefully it does.
Action games I really enjoyed that I have finished (in no particular order) in recent years: Half-Life 2 and episodes, Bioshock, CoD 1 & 2 campaigns, Crysis, Crysis Warhead (can't really get into Crysis 2 much), Doom 3, BF3 campaign, Portal/Portal 2...
In any case which of the following would you recommend I play next?
Alan Wake
Batman: Arkham Asylum
BioShock 2
Dead Island
Dead Space / Dead Space 2
Deus Ex Human Revolution
FEAR 2 / FEAR 3
Medal of Honor
Metro 2033
Operation Flashpoint: Dragon Rising
Saints Row The Third
While I'm open to other suggestions, I'd rather keep it to my current game library.
Thanks!

I bought the batman franchise during the steam summer sale.
Hands down get started with batman arkham asylum! I can't wait to finish this to get going with arkham city lol. I'm about 20% through and it has been a great fun experience. My first real game on this laptop :-)

Since everything you listed is an fps, change it up and go for Batman: AA. Great game. Dead Space is another I would recommend. I played through that twice in order to get all the upgrades.

agree with Batman: AA. If you havent play it, you really are missing out on a great game.

I voted Alan Wake, but all of them are great games, except Operation Flashpoint: Dragon Rising, which is console garbage.

I can highly recommend both Alan Wake and Deus Ex: Human Revolution.
Saints Row: The Third also offers drop in coop too.

HT you and I are both ... ahem .... experienced. Go blow off the dust on a copy of MOO or something retro with great gameplay and antique graphics.
