Battlefield 2
I just bought Battlefield 2 to play at the LANs.
Before I bought it I checked whether my computer could play it. I had heard something about it not supporting nVidia graphics cards. Turns out that was partly true. The Geforce 4 range (and earlier) isn't supported. That is OK for ne. The only machine I have with a Geforce 4 card in it couldn't handle the game anyway.
Popular Technology.net has a good write up about it.
I agree that EA games should have included support for the Geforce 4 cards, but at the end of the day I believe it was nVidia's fault for not supporting Pixel Shader 1.4
