Well, some of my choices would be Three Red Lights, The Gamespy Debriefings, The Geekbox, Rebel FM, and for some shameless self promotion my podcast, the Aeropodcast.
Yeah, Games for Windows will run under XP, including Lost Planet. The only two games under the Games for Windows banner that won't play are Halo 2 and Shadowrun, because they were coded with OS checks.
Starflight is still my all time favorite game on any platform. It is very dated now, but I have never been so awed by a game in my 36 years on this planet. Knights of the Old Republic is a close second followed by the original X-Com and the original Bard's Tale.
Well, I will give a few different suggestions that have not been brought up yet. The Witcher was an excellent RPG, although you might want to wait till September for the re-release where they are expanding the game. Also, I enjoyed Gears of War on the PC, as well as Lost Planet: Colonies Edition. And a game I am playing through for the sixth time, Vampire Bloodlines, which is an excellent game when you patch it with the unofficial patches, mods and skins.
