Can someone recomend a good game for pc?

ORANGE BOX: 5 of the best fps games in existence for $50.

ever play "Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas"? It's got RPG and FPS elements, and also it is sort of a driving simulation game. It has missions and stuff to do to build up your character, or you can just go and run over cops and old ladies and avoid capture, or drive out into the country and do 360 degree jumps on a dirt bike. The vehicles that you can steal or carjack are pretty cool -- everything from a BMX bike to a Firetruck.

I recommend Vampire: The Masquerade - Bloodlines. Yeah, it's a bit old, but it's got the FPS elements as well as RPG ones, and you get to be a vampire! What's cooler than that (besides pirates and ninjas)? I'm playing it now and really enjoying it.

I second The Orange Box. That has to be one of the best value packages ever released and will give you lots of different kinds of games. You're bound to find something you really like in there.

You might also look into Chronicles of Riddick: Escape from Butcher Bay. It's a bit old (came out in 2004) but the graphics were great at the time, still looks pretty darn good. It's mostly a shooter, but it has a very small RPG element as well. It also has some great action sequences. It is even easier to recommend because of the fact that you can purchase a used copy for well under ten dollars.

Not sure about this as much, but have you played Oblivion? It's not everyone's cup of tea, but there is a tremendous amount of game for the money, and it's very well polished. You might look into that (play the demo or a friend's copy before buying).

If you have even a passing interest in World War II shooters, you should also look into the Brothers in Arms series. Again, used copies should be found for very cheap, and the authenticity and grittiness really makes these games enjoyable.

One last recommendation; the Jedi Knight Series. They are actually decent, albeit unrealistic shooters. Add that to the crazy fun you can have with the force and lightsabers, and you have yourself a game! This is another title that can probably be found used for less than five bucks, so give it a shot if you are at all interested in star wars.

That's all for now, good luck in your search!

and before you ask why, its because im an idiot/risk taker

it IS

Half Life 2 and the episodes, Bioshock, F.E.A.R., Far Cry, CoD4, Frontlines:Fuel of War, Portal, Quake 4, Doom 3, Unreal Tournament 3

And Half Life does not suck that's the most ridiculous thing a PC gamer can say...

I second all of those fine titles, especially Mass Effect if you're an RPG fan, and nominate one other if you're into RTS games: World in Conflict. A great and somewhat overlooked game.

Yep half life was the worst fps game i ever played, Gunz of of ijji.com was so much better than half life you guys should try it, i got cod4 and wow omg it is so good, its alot like cod2 to me, i loved and still love cod2.

on a more positive note, oblivion and morrowind are both excellent RPG's. I prefer Morrowind, but it lacks simple stuff like voice overs and decent AI and good graphics.

u should try devil may cry 3 ,

warriors oricho,

f.e.a.r,

and

s.t.a.l.k.e.r

My opinion of HL2 is that is was fun for a while, but the pacing was screwed.

That said I am not a fan of most FPSs. I like to take my time with a game and have real lulls in the actions where I can catch my breath, maybe poke around with a couple things and talk to people. There really isn't any of that in HL2. There are a few moments of pause between long action sequences, but you don't really control when crap hits the fan from there and before I know it, crap is hitting the fan and I am running and gunning again before I've really gotten to catch my breath.

Also I have never been a fan of the strong silent type of main character. I'd rather my character have something that resembles a personality.

My complaints with HL2 really stem more from personal preferences than any real issues with the game, but it just isn't the kind of game I get into.

I wanna hear Gordan bust out with "Let's kill these b****s" as he cocks a shotgun and strodes casually towards the enemy with his friends watching in awe.

idk if anyone cares to hear this but ifound a cool, free mmo called rappelz.
I think its pretty fun for being a free download. 3-d graphics and all that.
Id compare it to guild wars

Have you tried out the mods for the games you already own? Most people don't realize this, but there is much, much more content available for moddable games than comes in the package.

Great mods for BF2 are Point of Existance 2, Project Reality, and Forgotten Hope. For BF2142, the best there is is First Strike (The BEST Star Wars game ever. Fantastic.). I recommend downloading ModJive, a program that lets you download and manage your mods all at once. A beautiful program. All of these are FREE. Trust me, they will give you plenty of weeks of entertainment.

If you have exhausted all of the mods (Although you can never get bored of Project Reality), get Half-Life 2. I bought it purely for the mods (I can't get enough of 'em), but I was surprised on how good (and long) the single player campaign is. It is the best FPS ever. No argument, it just is.

I vote Orange Box for a nice list of FPS's. For an MMO I vote EVE online, but you must be capable of dealing with a suicidal learning curve and have patience, the 14-day trial is nothing more than a tease, more comparable to a pinhole of what it has to offer. If you want a fun oldschool shooter go find Blood1 or Blood 2 :The chosen, their a sort of comical FPS with lots of guns and fun, even comes with a somewhat tangible story.

Hard to beat HL2 and HL2 ep2. Orange Box +1. You simply can't compare HL2 and HL by current standards. Fear is another must play FPS.

Heh, funny you should mention HL2 to HL. I've beatin HL2, E1, E2 and then purchased the half life deluxe whatever edition(the one with the 2 small expansions) and beaten that. It was a hard pill to swollow visually and the game play really couldn't be compared to HL2, the AI in HL was either kill or be killed with the exception of the face hugger deals, even still, a few bites from them and you were ready to die. HL2 just felt more tactical, as a matter of fact I think I'm ready to play it again, this time on the 24"

It's not the current oblivion, it was a couple years ago when this happened...

You could demo it yourself through other means, but don't go to far without actually owning it.

Assassin's creed hasn't been released yet for pc has it?

Puzzlequest. Best game ever. seriously its like an rpg/puzzle game i was addicted to it and played it all the time till i beat it.

Anybody remember Trespasser, it was a Jurassic Park game released back in 1998ish, it was the first like huge island simulator where you could walk for miles or go where ever and get chased by raptors and what not. Overall the game (back then) was a pretty cool experience, it even included some simple puzzles that required to to interact with the enviorment like stacking boxes or grabbing an actual key card, use it, throw it, crush it or whatever. The pace of the game I have to admit was a little slow and boring however. At the time I was playing it on a Compaq presario, AMD K6 350Mhz 4MB ATI radeon integrated graphics 128MB RAM, thats right baby having 128MB of RAM was awesome back then.

Yes; it was a great concept but not well developed... the first game I'm aware of that tried to do real physics, but the physics engine didn't work well. It also suffered badly from being reviewed on 3dfx cards when it ran much better on anything that used an AGP bus due to the weird graphics engine; it crawled on 3dfx cards but ran well on even my TNT1.
