Well I'm curious too.  Should be dumping the 300 MHz albatross this week for 3.06 GHz so all game recommendations are of interest to me.  

Feel free to recommend racing games, flight simulators, killing, etc.

You hit all the major ones. I did try playing R Racing Evolution recently. The game was pretty bad overall, but you have some really cool features like on board adjustments to your car while your racing(i.e tire pressure, camber, etc). I also had the opportunity to drive the Lotus elise (one of the sports car I am considering buying) so that made it  cool. Overall don't  expect much from the game especially if your a GT3 player.

Burnout 2!

I have never seen this game in stores and stumbled on to it art Best Buy last night for $19.99.

I was surprised the handling was so good not to mention the crashes :o

If it is not available online, I can pick a copy up for you for that price plus shipping.
