In need of good PC game!

Hi guys. I've been playing Counter-Strike for to long now, I need a new game. I've been tempted to buy Unreal Tournament or Tribes 2, but decided to wait. Preferably i'd like an FPS, but RPGs are fine to. Thanks guys

Developed by Barking Dog who helped with Counter-strike.
Check it out. Team based play with some interesting new features.

Medal Of Honor:Allied Assault
If you have played this through in single player then I recommend this if you have a semi-decent graphics card. Its a stunning game. The weapon sounds alone are amazing.

Check out this thread on Upcoming FPS games
Also this Game of the year thread where members discuss what games they rate highly.

I would agree with Arris, If you wanna try something alittle different try Return to Wolfenstein or Medal of Honor. These are FPS's but stray away from the cartoonish FPS's. I like Half Life and UT but I like the different look and feel of both these games. They both have demo's you can try out.

Unless of course you are one of our younger browsers out there, then it might be a good one

But for the majority I will have to say probably not.

Global Operations was mentioned by Arris, and man is it a sweet game! However, you mention that you play CS a lot, and this game is like CS in many ways (also improved in many ways). So if you are looking for a new version of CS dowload the mulitplayer demo of Global Ops.

Also, have you ever played Serious Sam or No One Lives Forever? NOLF can probably found for cheap now, and it is a GREAT, underrated game. Serious Sam:Second Edition just came out, and it is supposed to offer even more action than the original, with hundreds of baddies on the screen at once, and even better graphics.

Well, you may not care enough now, since your post is like 4 years old, but the rest of you may. Our website is "on the come up" and we are hosting 5 game servers now and working on more.

The servers we have now are UT, CZERO, CSS, GTA:SA, and HL
For those of you who are acronomically (not a word?) challeneged thats
Unreal Tournament, Condition Zero, Counter Strike: Source, Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas (MP), and Half-Life....

You can visit our website at www.BHZRD.com and register for maximum benefits.

All of our game servers have their own subdomain name soe it's easy for you to remember our servers. For instance, if you're into CSS, all you need to remember is:
css.bhzrd.com
and you can connect to that instead of an IP...

And as we always say...

Have Fun And Watch Your *****!!!
