It's far from new, but I loved the fighting in Indiana Jones and the Emporers Tomb for PC. In that one, you could use all kinds of things as weapons, even your own hands. Being able to use the right and left mouse buttons to throw left and right hooks in fist fights was awesome! So was being able to actually grab enemies and throw them down or beat them up while holding them. That game did a great job of mimicking the fights in the Indy movies. I have played so many games before and since that game where I've wanted to just run up to an enemy and beat him up but couldn't because I had to pick up some weapon instead. Even most games (with the obvious exception of martial arts and wrestling games) where you can use your hands instead of weapons have pretty lame punching mechanics that seem to be just thrown in afterthoughts of "gee, what if they run out of ammo? Oh yeah, they could just hit the guy I guess".
