Company of Heroes: Opposing Fronts is a standalone expansion to Company of Heroes. It remains a WW2 Real Time Strategy gamethat attempts to combine riveting, accessible real-time strategy gameplay with the cinematic sensibilities of World War II movies. The game supports multiplayer games for two to eight players via LAN or internet.
The previous game and subsequent standalone expansion pack (Tales of Valor) missions can be accessed through the same in-game menu once installed.
It is the distant future and the Imperium of Man has spread across the entire galaxy. But our days of expansion are long past. Where once we fought to conquer, now we fight simply to survive. Savage and bloodthirsty aliens ravage our worlds. Our defenders die by the billions in endless wars of attrition. Devious enemies lure us into traps and snares. Advanced alien technology claims millions of lives in mere moments.
Now, from beyond the galaxy's edge comes the greatest threat yet to our survival.
Third-person slasher with basic loot, XP and auto-cover systems. You play as either Elara the elven archer or Caddoc the barbarian, both of which must cooperate to open certain doors, trigger story-related events and revive each other. Hunted also features a level editor and Gamespy-powered LAN and online multiplayer, but sadly no local co-op. It's a mediocre game at best, but at least it's easy to fix.
Massacre meets machismo in this third-person co-op survival shooter. Repel demonic hordes with firearms, melee and hand-to-hand moves in various solo and multiplayer modes over eight open maps plus an Inferno boss stage. And for a change of pace, why not play as a trap-setting, minion-spawning demon yourself ?
Alien Swarm is a free game and Source SDK release from a group of talented designers at Valve who were hired from the Mod community. Available free of charge, the game thrusts players into an epic bug hunt featuring a unique blend of co-op play and squad-level tactics. With your friends, form a squad of four distinct IAF Marine classes.

Guess what, this game has very little in common with the ones it wants to pass as a sequel of.
Chaos & Destruction is an arcadey racing game with minimalistic physics and where nitrous is not only used to overtake and ram opponents, it also heals your car. Tapping the additional invulnerability reserve will also prove useful to survive close encounters at 200 mph. The game features numerous vehicle classes, environments and game modes including silly "ragdoll olympics"-style challenges and 16-player MP.

It retains the traditional open-world gameplay found in the Elder Scrolls series. The player is free to roam the land of Skyrim at will, either on-foot or on horseback. Within Skyrim lie five major cities and numerous smaller towns, and expanses of wilderness and mountain ranges. Each city or town has its own economy, which the player can either stimulate by completing jobs such as farming and mining, or harm by sabotaging industrial buildings. The player can train in eighteen different skills, and the player character is leveled up by raising skills.
