The Tom's Hardware Community Choice PC Games are back! This time we want to know your best picks for RPGs, PC Game Soundtracks, and Simulator games.

There are so many games out there that sometimes it's hard to sort through them all. Sure, you could follow our Steam Curator Feed, but sometimes it's better to ask a friend, which is why last year we turned to our venerable members for a "Best of" series, called the Tom's Hardware Definitive List of PC Games.

With your help, we were able to curate a list of hundreds of great games across tens of genres. We're now turning to you again, dear members, for our next iteration, The Tom's Hardware Community Choice PC Games. Click here to vote on your favorite games in the following categories:

Best RPGs[www.tomshardware.com]

Best Soundtracks[www.tomshardware.com]

Best Simulator Games[www.tomshardware.com]

The vote will run for seven days and end on Friday, May 11th. Game on, and vote on your favorite PC Games!

To help navigate this brave new world for gaming, Tom's Hardware is in the process of assembling the definitive list of PC games in a number of genres. We've already put a few lists together, but the number of titles is lacking. While the Tom's Hardware Editorial team is few in number, the Tom's Hardware Community is legion.

With your input we hope to assemble a list of the best and worst PC games that can truly be called definitive. Over the next few weeks we'll be collecting Community feedback across multiple categories. Once we have a sufficient number of submissions, we'll have the Community vote on the most popular, with a showcase of the winning games on the Tom's Hardware homepage.

To help get you started here are the Editorial Team's list of best PC RPGS:

• Divinity: Original Sin 2
  
• The Baldur's Gate II
  
• Fallout: New Vegas
  
• Ultima Online[uo.com]
  
• The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt

We know this list is just a start. Do you have any suggestions? Comment in the forums[www.tomshardware.com] and give us your best picks!

The Tom's Hardware Community Choice PC Games: Best PC Simulators[www.tomshardware.com]

Are we living in a new "golden age" for PC Gaming? Of course, it is impossible to give a definitive answer. The distance of time and a heaping dose of nostalgia are both necessary prerequisites for any "golden age". And, while it may be easy to argue the merits of one generation over another, one thing is abundantly clear: PC Gaming in 2017 is more widespread and more accessible than ever before. The maturation of digital distribution, a new diversity of platforms, and the adoption of x86 CPU architecture by console manufactures have together, created the perfect environment for a PC Gaming renaissance. PC Gamers have access to more games than ever before, including overlooked titles from past generations and current games that would have been either too costly or too difficult to port. Games are so ubiquitous that you're more likely to hear complaints of having too many games, rather than too few. The number of "good" games is now so great that even the hardest of the most hardcore gamers struggle in their search to find the very best.

After a long hiatus, we are back! We've changed things up a bit this time around. Instead of giving away games we'll be giving away 3 steam gift cards each month. With two first place prizes worth $100 and one second place prize worth $50, the Steam Giveaways are better than ever! We'll pick two winners via the raffle widget and another $100 gift card winner will be randomly selected from participants in the discussion.
