Since I've recently taken a liking to my nostalgia about the 2000s - early 2010s with the customization of my desktop I've also started playing older games that I used to play on those years (plants vs zombies, minecraft, etc.) however those are games I've already played countless times, even the past decade and the past 5 years, so I'm searching for recommendations about any game for pc from those years, It would be nice to find a "new old game" (a good classic that I didn't know about) to add to my library.

GTA IV is great, it's pretty much a snapshot before social media and the internet now.

Of course there are some issues with it being the transition game from the PS2 to Modern Era, but it still holds up well.
Though I have no idea what the hell Rockstar was doing with the PC Port, so you'll 100% need to use Fusion Fix on Github to make the game run correctly and not crash on you 100 times in a row.

totally agree with users above about S.T.A.L.K.E.R., DOOM and Fallout: NV (3 is also cool!), Sims 2, and especially Sims 3. i still play some them

you didn't mention any genre, so i will recommend different ones:

Mass Effect (2007) and Mass Effect 2 (2010) (sci-fi, RPG, shooter)
TES: Morrowind (2002) and Oblivion (2006) (fantasy RPGs)
Need for Speed: Most Wanted (2005) (racing)
Quake III: Arena (2000) (shooter). it has multiplayer and some servers are still alive!
Baldur's Gate II (2000) (fantasy, CRPG)
GTA: Vice City (2002) and San Andreas (2004) (adventure, shooter)
Nancy Drew series (mystery, detective, point-and-click)

Just Cause 2, Prototype 2 are a lot of fun, plays well on the Steam Deck too.

I recommend, if you like a game with spectacular story and real aesthetic vibe. Play Final Fantasy X, story is enough to make a grown man cry, well in my case it did when I was young. Along with Kingdom Hearts. Or if you are looking for something else, the ideas of Star Wars Battlefront 2 (2005) is definitely worth playing, the amount of hours I would spend playing that and with my cousin on my PS2 are outnumbered, they have a port of the game on steam with full working servers and the uje of offline play.

Btw the OP of this thread (nightowl) never migrated their account from Proboards to the new forum, so I don't think they're able (or even aware) about new games recommandations posts :/
But it can still help other curious people who want to try some fun and cool 2000s/2010s games

The first three Sly Cooper games come to mind instantly! The console version of the og battle for bikini bottom is a great time if you live the spongebob series.

If you're looking for a fun pc game though, I've been having alot of fun with Sid Meier's Pirates remake from the early 2000s. Thats got alot of charm. Metal wolf chaos also got released for steam and gog (i should really buy that.) And that game has to be experienced as fresh as possible.

Shadow the Hedgehog is overly edgy which is why i love it. You can also try all the mii games from the wii like wii sports resort. I love the series of haruhi suzumiya too, please check it out

I think Fire Emblem: Path of Radiance and Radiant Dawn work if you have something that can play GC/Wii games. Also all of the Advance Wars games. Since it's been long enough that people have started to like the mid/late 2000s dark and edgy trend, I would imagine people getting into that series would be more receptive to Days of Ruin (2008) than they were in the early 2010s.

Also since someone mentioned Persona, Nocturne and the original Strange Journey from mainline SMT are really good too and fit the topic.
