The latest humble bundle includes a game called Spec Ops: the line. For 1$. If you want to take part in a story based on the Heart of Darkness by Joseph Conrad, if you're tired of stupid games, if you don't mind getting emotionally battered by a game and if you don't mind feeling bad years after you've finished it (like me), go for it.
The game starts like a regular silly shooter but soon gets very dark and bizarre. I don't think I've ever seen descent into madness presented so well, in both video games and movies.
Also, it has an amazing soundtrack - Jimi Hendrix, Alice In Chains, Deep Purple, Mogwai - among others.
Seriously go get it. Go. Get. It.
