I'd like to know of the player bases and such for them first. Alright, first off is Medal of Honor: Airborne... I've heard the singleplayer is alright but the multiplayer is supposed to be great. So, is there anyone here who has played it recently that can vouch for the multiplayer? I mean, are there still servers and players? Is it actually fun? Second is Stargate: Resistance, it looked a bit fun from videos but from what I've heard it severely lacks anything to keep you playing like maps and a small number of classes... and that fact that it's $20. Are there people still playing it? Do the devs seem to give a shit about their community? Last is Lead & Gold, I tried it briefly at a friend's house but only played against bots. I've heard that it's pretty fun but lacks maps and content in general. Players? Servers? Do the devs still care about it? Alright, lets hear it.
You seem to have a strange taste in games. Don't get MoH airborne, it's horrible. Multi isn't very active either last time I checked. Stargate Resistance, I can't really vouch for it, but the fact you only mention cons should suffice about your choice. As for Lead and Gold, I've heard some positive stuff about it.
I'm just incredibly bored of what I've got now(been playing tons and tons of RTSes) and just want to get back into the shooter scene, really. Got some cash from my grandmother for my birthday and feel like getting something new and hopefully fun. Thanks for the reply, though.
MoH: Airborne is a horrendous game and I've never even heard of the other two. So no. I don't recommend them.

Thanks for the reply, though.[/QUOTE] Oh come on, the shooter is probably the most represented genre around, surely there's better picks. If you don't mind older games, may I recommend Max Payne 1 and 2? Great games with good stories, fun gameplay plus the devs just released Alan Wake, so you know it's good.
I've played them to death. I'm mostly craving some multiplayer action.
How about picking up an old or new COD game, they`ll keep you entertained in bursts of a week or so.
Do not buy Lead and Gold. It is a terrible game with devs who don't care about their player base at all. I went on their forums during the beta phase asking if windowed mode would be implemented and a member of the dev team basically called me a moron, saying: "Windowed mode would make the game run worse." Screw Fatshark or whoever made that terrible game.
Lead and Gold is a pretty good game. Great for the price, and it'll give you hours of fun, but then you'll find it repetitive after a while. Although, if you wait a week or so, the game gets interesting again. I recommend Lead and Gold.
