Havent gamed in years, well properly any way. Got a really poweful pc and thought it was time to start making use of it

Its importacent that the gane I play first is good as will just throw the towel in if I get bored. Graphicsbis important as I gane on a 120" screen, I have a gtx570 as well

What do you think?

Battlefield 3, nothing else to say

Depends what you like. If you've always loved the ultra-realistic games then BF3.

If you like a more cerebral experience try Deus Ex: Human Revolutions. If you like RPG's then Skyrim.

If you want a silly fun FPS then get the first two serious sam games with the hd pack from steam (do that anyway as it's like a tenner for the pair)

Edit: missed the FPS from the OP, DXHR is still a really good FPS with a few rpg elements like the old games and well skyrim isn't really going to be up your street.

Battlefield 3 without a doubt. Your jaw will drop to the floor when you fire it up for the first time. Make sure you get the B2K expansion as well.

BF3 is the way to go and should look amazingly good running on a 570.

Enjoy!

And BF3 of course!

GraveYard · 18 Dec 2011 at 20:16

wnb · 18 Dec 2011 at 20:17

One of these days I going to have to drag my pc to work to use the projector screen. Only problem is I may not go home!

Yer I have a 120" cinema scope screen so need to start enjoying it.

Looks like this battlefield 3 game is getting bought. Am guessing its all about the online play and not much of a single player game?

(PS will research other titles mentioned here as well

)

Jackaby · 18 Dec 2011 at 22:40

As others have said - BF3.

It's about the multiplayer. Play that first.
The singleplayer isn't great but does look very very nice.

It has single player? lol

CoD MW3 is great if you want some fast paced, close range killing where each player dies very fast.

BF3 if you want larger maps, destructible scenery and driveable vehicles. Not as fast paced though. More to do with objective play whereas MW3 is just KILL PEOPLE!!

EDIT: MW3 singleplayer is much better though. Absolutely epic campaign although it's fairly short. BF3 graphics are superior, if that matters to you.

I must have spent 20 minutes just admiring everything in Back to Karkand the first time I ran it. I wish there was a spectator mode.
