Given high performance video card solutions what GAMES are you guys interested in seeing performance evaluated in?

List games from most important to you right now to least important that you want to see perf evaluated in, doesn't matter if we have evaluated the game or not yet, just list what is important to you.

Keeping this in the video card section since it relates to video cards.
 
Do they have to be released games or can the list include future games as well?
 
it must be very frustrating to find adequate tests for modern video cards when they appear to play new games at 1900 and 2500 resolutions out of the box.
 
Sweet:

Starcraft 2
Fallout 3
Crysis Warhead
Left 4 Dead
Team Fortress 2
Dawn of War 2
Bioshock 2
Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2
GTA 4
The Sims 3
World of Warcraft
 
Flight Simulator X
X3 Reunion and/or Terran Conflict

I know FSX is mostly CPU-bound but it does a good job of showing the efficiency of the drivers, CPU overhead etc., plus very few sites ever include any simulator games, only shooters. As for X3, no idea how it stresses current computers but it would be interesting to see some results from it.
 
dcs blackshark :)

what a great looking sim (the Eng version was just released this week).
 
Games which use different engines that are known to require different balance of resources to run.

Cpu intensive games, games that require lots of ram, video and system and the good old games which use lots of features that kill gfx cards.
 
Dead Space is a poor choice because it doesn't use anti-aliasing.

I posted a question earlier about whether WoW should be evaluated. A lot of people were negative about that idea, but I think it's relevant because you have 10 million people spending hundreds or thousands of hours playing it, whereas most single-player games are considered epics if you play more than 40 hours.
 
actually, testing video cards ability to force AA would be nice, like dead space, boishock and so one. esp comparing Green to Red teams, show people what they are getting for their money.

Is there then a method by which to force anti-aliasing in Dead Space? I am aware of some glitchy workarounds for Bioshock and Mass Effect, but not so far for Dead Space.
 
since [H] is all about realworld gameplay, I want to see some numbers in TF2, because the nature of that game being 24+ online people shooting everywhere can easily dip your fps under 60 even with a GTX or 4870.
Too bad you cant mirror replays online.

Overclock your cpu and get some good gains out of TF2.

THIS i cant stand not having AA
 
I believe they are going to be updating TF2 with the multi-core enhancements that L4D have, much more stable and that should give FPS a big boost.
 
America's Army 2.8.4
America's Army 3.0 when it comes out
GTA4
LFD
COD5
Silent Hunter 4
 
I would like to see some wider range in terms of genres. Especially some RTS loving.
 
Crysis and FarCry 2 is definitely on the list.

I don't think games like COD4 is relevant anymore, they run at very high frame rate anyway.

Games like Crysis really push the GPU and so wouldn't be too limited by the CPU.

I don't know if GTA4 high demand is due to CPU, or it does require alot of GPU power too, but if it does require alot of GPU, then I'd like to see that too.

In shot, games that are graphically intense, not those that easily run over 100 fps at high res.
