Looking for good AAA games on Steam that came out in 2007-2010

Would've said Fo3, but thats gfwl...

Give us some examples of what you can run, what settings or fps.

Also give us examples of what is -almost- playable.

This will be more useful than release year, imo.

The Witcher, Dragon Age, Stranglehold [good luck finding it], Crysis, Bioshock, Deadspace, FarCry 2, GTA IV, Mass Effect, Mirror's Edge, Riddick, Arkham Asylum

Thats just a few that popped in my head

Depends on your personal tastes. Since you link resource requirement with release date, should we take that to mean you only like AAA massive studio FPSes (and other mainstream genres)?
Here is the Steam catalogue sorted by date on the page that 2010 starts at (http://store.steampowered.com/search/?sort_by=Released&sort_order=DESC&category1=998#sort_by=Released&sort_order=DESC&category1=998&page=31)

The Steam catalogue has less than 2000 titles, so with that restrictive date there are not really many to go through.

people still play AAA games? Indie all the way with the exception of portal and portal2

Sacred 2 Gold,Torchlight 2 (will run on any 500$ Facebook "Gaming" Laptop),Titan Quest & Payday

Define what "AAA games" mean to you. Specs of your laptop would be nice too.

If you check this Clicky you'll notice that lots of good games came out before 2010.

Modern Warfare? Unless the PC version is also full of cheaters.

TES IV: Oblivion came out in 2006 and is still a fantastic game!

Unreal Tournament 3, Prototype, Call Of Duty games (Black Ops has an excellent campaign, playing it on Veteran is great), Quake 4, The Last Remnant, World In Conflict, Civilization V (works great on notebooks), Far Cry 2, Dead Space, PAYDAY, Mirror's Edge, Devil May Cry 4, BioShock, Rainbow Six Vegas 1 & 2, GR: Advanced Warfighter 1 & 2, Gears Of War, Halo 2, Prince Of Persia (2008), Torchlight 2 (my PC can barely run TF2 and this game works perfectly), Neverwinter Nights 2 and Dragon Age Origins w/Awakening.

Despite the fact that I have a Satellite L455, I can still run the Portal series pretty well. Even more surpriising is the fact that I installed Borderlands GOTY the other night, and it still runs well. Granted, the settings are all down to the lowest settings, and it lags, but at least it's playable.

Basically, those games I mentioned should run quite well on your computer, unless it's from the 90s. Oh, and don't count out the triple-A indie titles, too. Limbo, Braid, Super Meat Boy, Bastion, and quite a few others should still run pretty well, no matter what computer you have.

VVVVVV

Any of the Call Of Duty's are good
