Go with Skyrim, playtime value will be very long. As well has a powerful modding community to keep the game replay value very long vs other games at time being. Other words, you will get the most money value outta Skyrim then other games really in the long run.
Prepared myself for MW3 and BF3 spammage/flamming.
Lets get one thing straight, I am not even a fan of MW2 and I feel like MW3 WILL be an expansion pack. However, I will not go around bashing it, as I know that I have yet to even play the game. Also, by bash I meant don't say it like it is "garbage", as other people have opinions too. Say that it isn't a game you like, or it didn't live up to your expectations. The only games where garbage really applies are things like Superman 64
Skyrim would be the best, if you can get it for $50.
If you want a shooter, get BF3.
Dead Island also looks pretty cool; I'd get it if I weren't burning all my cash on Skyrim Collector's Edition and some PC upgrades.
Why? Doesn't matter how long the game has been out for, it's still garbage.
And I don't think Infinity Ward cares enough to make it any better.
First of all, its opinion, not fact.
Second of all, if you haven't actually played it, you cant judge it. By your comment in being a negative nancy about the game, I assume you haven't. Do I say that to defend the game cus I like it? No because I have yet to try it.
As for games worth getting. Dark Souls is actually a nice buy if your into stupidly hard games.

I've been playing TF2 for years, and I honestly can't see myself having any more fun with an FPS. Also with all of the stories I've heard about Origin, I don't even think that BF3 would get me to install that piece of trash.
Skyrim seems like the winner so far. I enjoyed Oblivion, except for the dungeons, and apparently they've made them more bearable.

Thats just a small varied selection with a lot of different typed genres in it. Games are a very personal choice and its hard to recommend for someone unless you completely know them
EDIT: some non-recent games that I'd recommend are Borderlands, Killing Floor, and TF2.

Don't bash a game that has been out for all of two days. Makes you sound ignorant.
