I need a new Game

[beef_jerky4104]

I've gone some time without playing a new PC game. And I've gotten bored at just playing the same games over every time I get a new RIG. So please recommend me a new game, I am in dire need of something new. I meen I considered buying Starship Troopers. The game that had an average press rating of 4.7 out of 10. By the way It doesn't matter if the games are new or old, I don't mind outdated graphics as long as the gameplay is solid.

The games that I already have are:

Halo Combat Evolved
Half-Life
Half-Life 2
Counter-Strike: Source
Star Wars Republic Commando
Doom 3
Doom 3 ROE
Far Cry
Project Snowblind (The problem I had was indeed antiailasing)
Quake III Arena
Quake IV
F.E.A.R.
GTA: San Andreas
The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion
Area 51
FPS Creator (I make my own games with this)
Master of Orion (Requires Dos-Box under XP)
Master of Orion II (No online under XP)

My specs are:

0080: Primary Gaming Rig
AMD Athlon 64 X2 3600+ Brisbane AM2 OC 2.09GHz
Biostar TForce 550 SE AMD AM2 Motherboard
Corsair Value Select 2GB (512MB x4) DDR2-667 RAM

I'd recommend the Battlefield 2 or battlefield 2142 which both are really good online games. and how is doom 3 ROE been thinking of buying it.


EDIT: And Command and conquer 3 AWESOME GAME!!, for battlefield 2 or 2142 you can download a demo and try it before you buy it, i like Battlefield 2 a little better.

try Condemned - Criminal Origins. I dare you play that game at night without any lights on while using a headset =] and beating it.

and how is doom 3 ROE been thinking of buying it.

If you've played Doom 3 then its pretty much the same thing. "Marine you need to get to me on the double!" It also borrows from other games. The give a "Gravity gun" like HL2's and with the "Artifact" the give you F.E.A.R.'s slow motion. I thought Doom 3 was pretty scarey, however repetitive, ROE I haven't ever been scared. In fact I've become bored at it because its so not scary. But if you need a new FPS then its a good choice.

Cool. Maybe ill purchase it. its only like 10 bucks.

i've played starship troopers,visuals are good but gameplay is boring after some time,spiders,spiders and spiders.many people have suggested many games,out of them,according to me some are pretty bad,like freedom fighter etc.i'll suggest u to play 'resident evil 4 biohazard' if it is published in your location on pc by now.

One game i noticed no one put up is The Godfather. Just bought it for PS3 and am loving it! C&C looks great..Look into World in Conflict..its looking lovely.

Edit: The godfather in fun..not graphically great but challenging and some time frustrating but overall fun to play

 

[Rage_3K_Moiz]

Freedom Fighters was a great squad-based shooter IMO. Maybe it just comes down to users' preference I guess. I've heard good things about BioHazard 4 though, so I suggest you get it. I will.

 

[Condor]

i took a few video of RE4 when i was playing it.
side note: this game im currently playing still un-patch. Theres a update where Capcom release a patch which fixed alot of stuff like lighting, darker room when before was to light.

Try World of Warcraft, but be careful. you will be hooked to it, and won't be able to do other work.

 

[Rage_3K_Moiz]

The RE4 patch fixes a lot of shader issues, like the ones you're having.
