NEED new game to play

[Ris3n_Da3mon]

i'm soo bored of the games i have and have been playing, i need some suggestions as to games to get to play to keep me occupied till half life 2, deus ex2, and doom 3 FINALLY come out. some of the games i really have enjoyed have been half life, red faction, deus ex, system shock 2, basically fps's with cool story lines and unique game play.

I know what you mean Ris3n, but I'm more of a RPGer(I've been playing Daggerfall). I know you have played Max Payne but have you tried FallOut I or II? These can be bought bundled in the discount box.
I hear someone is doing a remake of System Shock 2. I didn't ever find a link to this though.

Roll on DNF. All games will pale in comparison to the Duke's latest!

I hear it should be out within the decade. *cracks knuckles*

Tron 2.0 has been getting pretty good reviews. And Unreal Tournament always helps to pass the time.

Alot of people are playing Vietnam.

I often find going back to the Original "Descent" is alot of fun, especially if you get 3d Hardware-rendered version like D1x or D1_3dfx. Nastalgia is so MUCH fun!

My OS features preemptive multitasking, a fully interactive command line, & support for 640K of RAM!

I'm about halfway through Tron 2.0 and its been really fun. Its a FPS with some "roleplaying" elements (i.e. upgrading abilities as you go along). It was done by the same folks (Monolith) who did NOLF & NOLF2, so the story is halfway decent (if somewhat cheesy) and the gameplay is somewhat similar. Also, for a quick fix, download the recently released demo for "Call Of Duty".

I'm just about done chaser. It's a good fps, with a pretty good story, pretty good graphics, and lot's of game playing time (as in you won't beat it in 2 days). It's not the best game ever made, but I think it is definetly worthy of playing through once or twice.

If you haven't played Jedi Knight II it's a great game.

Freelancer is a space shooter that I had a lot of fun with that plays more like a regular FPS than Descent or its ilk, and also has a strong single player story and some RPG elements in the multiplayer (upgrading weapons, trading, etc.).

I haven't played much of the single player Tron2.0, I've been busy derezzing fools online with my frisbee.

 

[Ris3n_Da3mon]

do you mean vietcong??

and i just remembered i have fallout 2 installed.......but i've never played it.....

Another vote for Tron 2.0. OMG the Progress Bar is badass. Especially if you have nice sound card/speakers.

Monolith is such a solid company. Always keep an eye out for any of their releases.

Let's see...Tron 2.0, Chaser, Halo PC, and Chrome. Look for these games. All FPS.

This probably isn't what you're looking for but if you like a good story line and are willing to try something new and different check out Mafia. I think it is the best game I have ever played, and the graphics were INCREDIBLE IMO.

I played through Unreal 2 recently and although it's a very pretty game graphics-wise it just wasn't very fun. Just started on Star Trek: Elite Force II and it's fun so far. I played through the first couple of missions in Postal 2 and quit (got tired of bashing innocent pedestrians' skulls in with a shovel, if you like the senseless violence part of GTA and Carmageddon then you'll love this game). I also had a lot of fun with Ghost Recon, though it's more of a tactical shooter than a straight up FPS.

 

[jmecor]

thanks for more fps selection. Maybe i'll take a look with
tron 2.0 for a while and GTA.

According to ebgames.com, Halo PC is set for a Sept. 30th release.

Also look for MOHAA: Breakthrough, which is the 2nd add-on to MOHAA. The first being Spearhead. Breakthrough is scheduled for a Sept. 22nd release.

While I realize your looking for a game, I'd recommend reading a book. I'm not being a smartass or anything, I'm serious.
Check out one by Raymond E. Feist.. I started reading those recently and enjoy them.

Years ago there were some Sierra games based on the series (Betrayal at Krondor, Return to Krondor), thats why I remembered them when I needed something to do.. so I picked up the nearest author I'd heard of.

Athlon 1700+, Epox 8RDA (NForce2), Maxtor Diamondmax Plus 9 80GB 8MB cache, 2x256mb Crucial PC2100 in Dual DDR, Geforce 3, Audigy, Z560s, MX500

 

[Pettytheft]

Feist, wow I read most of his stuff when I was in High School... over 10 years ago. But your right it's an excellent series.

 

[Grub]

Army Men is cool...I just started playing that....uber fun...SARGE IS DEAD!!!

Also a coward...pass the nachos

 

[Lumathix]

Also Terry Goodkind, Robert Jordan, Terry Brooks, and the King and Queen of All that is Fantasy......David & Leigh Eddings.
