IL-2 Sturmovik: Cliffs of Dover

A new entry in the instant classic flight sim series, IL-2 Sturmovik: Cliffs of Dover puts you in the cockpit of a totally authentic World War II aircraft. Over a dozen English, German, or Italian planes are available for players, and you can even play in any real-life crew position for the larger planes. In the single-player campaign, you join the British Royal Air Force to stop the Germans from invading Great Britain. Multiplayer battles can support up to 128 players online at once, creating epic battles that can last for as long as players want.

Darkspore

Darkspore is an action RPG from the creators of Spore, which let you create a creature and take it through the annals of evolution and history. In Darkspore, you can use a similar creature creator to create, customize, and combine monsters into effective squads that can fight your enemies as effectively and as awesomely as possible. Different armor, body parts, and genetic enhancements can make your creatures better and better as you advance through the main campaign. Plus, with 4-player co-op or player v. player gameplay, your friends can get a taste of the action too.
