Yup, well stated. The AvPs games did this motif years ago. I know playing AvP2 as a Marine really scared the crap out of me. So did Doom3, but AvP accomplished the same thing long ago.

What other recommendations? I got a Max Payne demo with the card and I hae to admit I had an absolute blast with it. I'm seriously tempted to buy the game now. First time that's ever happened. 
I hear Far Cry is pretty and good fun.

Yes, both Max Payne games are excellent. The second one is a wee bit short but enjoyable. And be sure to pick up the kung-fu mod if you play the first, it is an excellent mod. I played through the kung-fu mod (after having previously finished the game on all difficulties) in one 6 hour marathon. Great fun.
Far Cry wowed me when I played through it. Absolutely beautiful game, huge, no I mean
HUGE environemnts. The level design is simply amazing. You see that mountain way off in the distance? it's not just scenery, you can go there and shoot shit. Terrific game.
