Need a new Game - Racing/FPS?

[Cuc Tu]

Well, after building a new machine, I need a new game.

Games I have:
Need For Speed (hot pursuit 2 & 3, High Stakes, Porche Unleashed, and IISE)
Nascar Racing 2003
Games I have - Quake3 + team arena
Unreal + Team

And a handful of arcady type games.

I think I'd like a racing game that is more like a simulator with good graphics since NFS takes care of the arcade style of racing. I was considering Dirt3, Shift (2?), or Forza Motorsports 4, but are they really going to be any better than what I have?

and then I was also thinking of something to upgrade the FPS type game. I guess there is BF3, CoD, and something else? But I never got into a story line type game, like Max Payne...

Ummm...no Elder Scrolls? (Morrowind, Oblivion, SKYRIM)

Hmmm...RPG?

When I read Morrowind, I was reminded of a game called Myst. I think I finished the game, but don't remember...I think I got bored...even the sims got boring. Forgot I had those.

One thing that irks me a bit is the first person POV in the driving games...The screen should be the windshield. Most cockpit views show hands and a wheel. I already have my own hands and wheel...or else the view of off the front bumper or floating 10 feet above the back of the car...

I'd like it to be the dashboard and windshield...
