There are a constant stream of solid indie PC games released almost every week but just wanted to post about this one - it's a top-down strategy game in the vein of Frozen Synapse but has you controlling a SWAT team in a variety of real-world situations/locations. It's a real-time tactical/strategy game but you can pause the action at any point and cue up commands.
I reviewed it for Maximum Pixelation here;

I think it's an absolutely phenomenal game. It's only $20 and since it's release in October the developers have added 2 new campaigns with more than a dozen new levels - all for free.
When you finish a level you get a replay of the action - here are videos of two very early levels - later levels are much, much larger and more intricate. I think it's definitely worth checking out and will work on most PCs.

1. That looks excellent.
2. You suck. I have too many games already.
3. I've been clamoring for full replays like this in games for years. So glad to see them finally showing up more.

Re: Door Kickers (PC)
Oh, crap, that's so right up my alley. Is it direct control, or more of a strategize/see how that strategy works-type thing?
EDIT: nm, just watched someone play it out. I LOVE that. LOTS of strategy, kind of like a top down "Full Spectrum Warrior". Great stuff.

Teal - I think you would love it! It's not system intensive at all - according to the developers the recommended specs are:
"OS: Windows 7
Processor: Intel Core 2 Duo or AMD Athlon 64 X2 5600
Memory: 4 GB RAM
Graphics: NVidia Geforce 9xxx / AMD Radeon HD / IntelHD 3000 series or better
Hard Drive: 2 GB available space
Additional Notes: A resolution of 1920x1080"
Which means most computers made in the last 6-7 years will work just fine (the GeForce 9xxx series of cards came out early 2008 I believe).
Mizzou - glad you're enjoying it! The Steamworks support is great - there's a neat Rainbow 6 mod someone made.
