Pc Game

[CHEVYMAN_02]

I plan to buy a computer game and wants recommendations on a good game to get.

[madthumbs]

Pusher... :D

Dungeon Siege if you don't already have it. Should be relatively cheap now too.

[Smokey]

Depends on what sort of games you enjoy, but I'll be playing only RavenShield for at least the next year ;)

[CHEVYMAN_02]

i like all kinds of games

[marqmajere]

How about a list of all the newer games you already own. I'd have to say get Neverwinters Nights or GTA 3. Those will keep you busy for quite a while. :D

[CHEVYMAN_02]

I really don't have any newer games on computer. The last game i bought was on XBOX.

I would dl demos and just decide that way. 3dgamers is a great place for that. They have screen shots for most games and the demos. I usually see a name of a game that sounds cool/fun/lame and check out the screen shots then dl the demo. Of course only if you don't have dial-up. Hell even if you do go for it, just let it dl over night.

cheers

whats ur system specs, because we dont wanna recommend a game to ya and u buy it and it dun work :)

[CHEVYMAN_02]

Here Are The Specs:

Intel Pentium 4 2.4GHz
256MB DDR Ram
Intergrated Sound
Nvidia Geforce 2 MX400
DSL
CDRW

[ragejg]

Unreal Tournament GOTY edition
Quake III Team Arena
The Sims
Serious Sam

These games would all run very fluidly on your setup...

*IF* it's something you want to get into, you could benifit from a larger selection of playable games by trading up on video cards...

THere are many out there to choose from which allows you to upgrade incrementally or *the whole shebang*...

Diablo and Diablo 2. Both can be picked up for less than $20 now. Very addictive. Very fun.

[CHEVYMAN_02]

I have already played that. It was very addictive.:eek:

[marqmajere]

If you liked Diablo then I recomend a game called Darkstone. Great game. The autorun to location feature is awsome. Music is great. Graphics are 3D instead of 2d rendered AND you can find it for $5-10.

[nin_fragile14]

Dungeon Siege, Splinter Cell, and Tiger Woods Golf 2003 are the best games I've played in the last year.

[CHEVYMAN_02]

I played a demo of Darkstone along time ago. I was great. Has anyone played CC: Generals? Because i was thinking of get that.

[stncttr908]

No way man...that game is not going to take a liking to your GF2MX, trust me. :(

[Starscream]

Lego Racers 1 and 2.

Great games.

[CHEVYMAN_02]

I won't really be playing it on that computer spec that i showed. I plan to build my own computer in a month or two.

Some games that I've had the most fun with in the past (I'm mostly an RPG buff, in case you can't tell...):

Baldur's Gate
Baldur's Gate 2 (fixed most of the annoyances of the original, and tends to be more fun)
Planescape: Torment (Excellent, excellent RPG)
Fallout
Fallout 2 (You can get these two games for $10 together from interplay.com!)
Starcraft (Gotta have the Broodwar expansion for this one...good multiplayer RTS)
Neverwinter Nights (excellent multiplayer, lots of great modules)
Freespace 2 (excellent space combat sim: must have good joystick!)
Alien vs. Predator (great FPS, haven't played the sequel, though it's said to also be very good)

[marqmajere]

Just go get yourself a copy of Alpha Centauri and all your gaming troubles will go bye bye. :D

Games I own that I love:

Tribes 2
Mechwarrior 4
Warlords III
Star Trek Voyager: Elite Force
Star Trek: Bridge Commander
Age of Empires 2
Neverwinter Nights
Grand Theft Auto 3
Unreal Tournament
Morrowind

Warlords III is rather old but great fun. Plus you can hotseat it for multiplayer.

Good list :)

Fallout 1+2 can be had for 10 bucks at Walmart too, as can Planescape Tourment. All are excellent RPGs, Fallouts are my favorites. I recommend both Freespace 1 and 2, best space-sim games ever.

I would also add Homeworld (10 bucks from walmart) and HW: Cataclysm, which you can sometimes find for 10 bucks in the EB bargain bin. They are 3D space-based RPGs with an excellent story line.

I think everyone is being a bit to critical about videocards. C&C Generals would probably run just fine on an MX400 at 640x480, I'm assuming he's not planing on playing at 1600x1200x32 with 4x AA on:p

Anwway, System Shock 2 is a godly game, get it right now or I'll come to your house and beat you up! Well, maybe not, but get System Shock 2, heh. Fallout is really fun too.

[Woodelf]

I've lost alot of sleep with:
Morrowind, and Tribunal add on.
Ghost recon
Microsoft Motocross madness 2
Star trek voyager elite force

You Might want to upgrade Your vidoe card to something that doesn't have MX in it's name. Even a Gforce 3 ti 200.
