From what I heard, STALKER has a very short campaign life. Anything from the Half Life series will keep you occupied for a while .
As well as the HL2 mods...I recommend Red Orchestra, it's one of the most realistic WW2 FPS'...ever.
Good luck on your hunt.. myself will be picking up a copy of BF2 very soon.

Yeah, Red Orchestra is terrific, wait till you get shot (in the game) in the leg/arm. It's so realistic, if you get shot in the leg, you start limping, and if you get shot in the arm, you can't use that arm. Now that's realism .

I reckon "Call of Juarez" if you haven't already played it.
Kick ass western style FPS with slow-mo and stuff...

This one gives you something to look forward to if you pick up a DX10 card and DL the DX10 patch for the game ... (patch doesn't work with cracked games )

ENJOY
ShadowRun kicks enormous amounts of ass, but you'll need to get a certain crack to have it run on xp.

Don't forget to add Rainbow Six : Vegas to your list! Multiplayer on the PC side is something you may want to avoid but the single player experience is just fantastic! The graphics are top notch, some of the best I've seen to date and if you got a nice soundsystem, the firefights will just make you cream in your pants!
