Yeah, so I'm bored, I have absolutely nothing to do this weekend, my buddies are mostly out of town or busy, family is spread across 4 different states and I'm alone with me, a computer, and a bunch of games I've played too much already.

Currently on my PC: MW2, DDO, SC2 beta (down :( ), Starcraft, Warcraft 3, League of Legends, Dragon Age: Origins, ME2, TF2, Heroes of Might and Magic 2: Gold, Vampire the Masquerade: Bloodlines, and Sid Meier's Alpha Centauri: Alien Crossfire. FFVIII and Chrono Cross on my emulator (legit, I own the actual games/system but they're in storage).

Formerly on my PC: Baldur's gate (all of them), Neverwinter Nights (all of them), KotOR (both of them), Fallout 3, Oblivion, Morrowind, Counter-Strike, Torchlight, Mass Effect, Civ 3 and 4, Age of Mythology, Portal, Diablo 2, and World of Warcraft.

I've played all of the above games to death (or in Fallout 3's case, I played Oblivion to death) and need a different game in a similar vein (RPG, Turn based Strat, etc) and preferably one that's a couple years old so I can get it on the cheap (I'm broke as hell). No consoles either because they're all in storage awaiting our move next month.

Thanks in advance.

I SEE NO DEUS EX!

however give this game a try, its old...old but still a good game as it is a FPS with RPG elements and but is not a big open word but you can still explore and make choices to an extent.

PORN!
What do you think I've been doing all of today?
MORE PORN!

and have you used mod's with Fallout 3/ Oblivion and Morrowind?
Yeah, it's the gameplay that's gotten really boring for me. That and I lost the discs so I can't really re-install it if I wanted to without me bottle of rum. I suppose I could blow the man down, but...well...you get it.

Get your hands on Evil Genius, it's cheap, awesome and just downright fun.

If the other plan doesn't come to fruition then this!
(LOVED THAT GAME)

Bioshock.

I dunno about Bioshock 2, didn't get a chance to play it yet.
It's not nearly as good as the original.

It's not bad, and there are a few improvements, but its just a bit samey and the story isn't as strong.

play moar tf2.
it helps.
or try to make your own level
the time flies by
even if you think : pfeh, this sucks, you (it works for me) got to do this, and this, and tune that, and build that. and eventually you get something.
it's not rewarding or anything,except if the level is awesome, but it kills time
a lot of time...

Right, I forgot that one. Funny story: I actually never owned it, but played it thanks to the fact a guy down my hall Freshman year bought the game but couldn't run it. So in exchange for letting him play it on my computer while I was at class (different schedules) he let me keep it :D

See if you can find a copy of this really old, but really awesome game: Might and Magic VII: For Blood and Honor. MM6: The Mandate of Heaven will do in a pinch, but 7 is (imo) the best in the series.

Failing those options... umm.... I dunno. Browse Steam or GoG.com for a game you might like and give it a whirl?
