I loved Condemned. Didn't get too far (for whatever reason), but it the CSI stuff mixed in with that great melee system and the creepy atmosphere made for some good times.
Splinter Cell is also an excellent choice. Short, but good. The video from their new game looks promising as well.
Overlord - This game is pretty fun. Think Pikmin without all the cutesy-tootsy shit. Different minions do different things and have different attributes. You collect stuff for you evil overlord castle, including scantily clad slave girls and a mistress if you like them a bit meaner. Lackeys galore to do your bidding and whole trove of demon-like little monsters that live and die by your word. There's something oddly satisfying watching your minion pry a knife from a dead chef's hand and then leap without reservation to plunge said knife into the back of the retreating enemy all at the flick of your finger.
