Woppum Posted December 10, 2006 Report Share Posted December 10, 2006 Since ive had the 360 I havent played any PC games. What good out there? Anything you can recomend? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sponge Posted December 10, 2006 Report Share Posted December 10, 2006 Depends on what genres interest you. At the moment I'm enjoying Company of Heroes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Woppum Posted December 10, 2006 Author Report Share Posted December 10, 2006 Im guessing that is Army? Thats about the only type of game I really don't like. A bit too tactical for me. I loved Doom and Quake, however id really like to game a game which isn't on the 360. Something unique to the PC with some obscene graphics. I love blood and gore, but some of this Sim or build a community type game sounds quite interesting. I really have no idea. If you can suggest any names, I can look up reviews on the Internet.

robin09 Posted December 10, 2006 Report Share Posted December 10, 2006 Nothing to do with blood or gore, (unless you really are a terrible driver) but I've recently purchased GTR2, the most realistic racing simulation I've ever played. Steep learning curve, but if you like a challenge and are fed up of things like Gran Turismo where you can waltz through the field of cars without much skill, then this is it! Plus you can do online multiplayer races with upto about 30 cars I think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CarMad Posted December 10, 2006 Report Share Posted December 10, 2006 Company of Heroes for me too. Download the demo Woops you might be surprised. Its very good and not normally my thing either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arch Posted December 10, 2006 Report Share Posted December 10, 2006 How up to date are you? Half Life 2? Far Cry? One of my faves, Doom 3 with the Classic Doom mod. SO much fun. All the visual beauty? of 3 with the frantic violence and hardcore soundtrack of Classic - I luff it! F.E.A.R. was supposed to be a good one too.

Chris_B Posted December 11, 2006 Report Share Posted December 11, 2006 [ QUOTE ] How up to date are you? Half Life 2? [/ QUOTE ] I got about as far as HL2, then I found mods, which have kept me going. First I got the official addons, Lost Coast and Episode 1, then I've been playing some single-player mods like Mistake of Pythagoras, Combine Destiny, Minerva and Day Hard. I've really been hooked on The Hidden recetly though, a really fantastic multiplayer online game. I should try Dystopia too, but always end up playing Hidden instead. I'm considering Garry's Mod now it's in v10 or something, but it has gone all commercial; only $9.99 though, so probably worth a punt for some laughs.

AntW Posted December 11, 2006 Report Share Posted December 11, 2006 Dark Messiah, same engine as Half Life, medieval setting... worth it just for kicking opponents onto traps/of cliffs etc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AntW Posted December 11, 2006 Report Share Posted December 11, 2006 Its great fun... the fights are really good fun, although sometimes you find yourself dying because you are too busy trying to create a spectacular kill rather than just laying into the enemy. Oh, and when you get your bow, if you hover the drawn arrow through a flame you get fire arrows... thats always good for a laugh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Woppum Posted December 11, 2006 Author Report Share Posted December 11, 2006 Fantastic its ordered! it looks like a cross between Oblivion and a game I used to play called 'Severange' which was possibly the best game I ever played. Very much looking forward to this! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AntW Posted December 12, 2006 Report Share Posted December 12, 2006 yup, its much more fun than Oblivion I was up to chapter 7 or 8 but my PC is broke, so waiting till after Christmas and will start again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Woppum Posted December 12, 2006 Author Report Share Posted December 12, 2006 Its an 18 too so should hopfully be nice and brotal. Nothing better than a clever bloody game! Anything about it you can tell me? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AntW Posted December 12, 2006 Report Share Posted December 12, 2006 okay... Basically you are an orphan who is raised by a wizard chappy and you end up doing missions for him, the story develops from there. You get a demon guardian - you'll like that when you see some of the cut-scenes (you'll know when you see it) Action-wise, there are spiky railings all over to kick enemys onto, then you have the old cut the rope drop a log traps. Say you have a gantry with barrels on it you can kick an enemy into it and have it collapse on them. You can pick up an oil jar and throw it at an enemy or the wall or floor near where they are, then ignite it either with a flame arrow or fire spell... Its very tempting to rush through, but save at start of each chapter as there are some encounters you will want to try in various ways. oh, and when you fight your adrenaline goes up, once you get full adrenaline you can do a one-shot kill special move, that depends how your character is moving as you pull it off Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Woppum Posted December 12, 2006 Author Report Share Posted December 12, 2006 Thanks mate! Looking forward to this game. Ive just watched a nice vid on the website. I cant tell much in the way of graphics but the gameplay looks damn good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Woppum Posted December 16, 2006 Author Report Share Posted December 16, 2006 Have been playing it a bit now. I think it will pick up as I get to grips with the controls, however its quite hard at the moment. Im used to the 360 me thinks... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
