Game advice...which one?????

[--G--]

Afternoon guys,

With my new rig up and running (E6300, S3, 2Gig Ram, 256MB BFG 7600GT) I want to get back into some good gaming,

I have bough half-life 2 (massive fan of the first one back on my old dell!) but I cant register it online as the pc has no connection, yet. so I had a rummage around, and craked out SimCity4, Black & White and homeworld2. Ive got Need for Speed: most wanted, and a few managment sims. But what I really want is to get plumbed back into top end gaming...whats a good, popular FPS, is it still half life?

and also, can anyone suggest an updated version of "Elite" - I used to have this back in the day, and I loved it...

cheers

F.E.A.R

As you currently have no connection maybe Quake 4 and Doom 3

I used to be on quake III arena (that right?)

F.E.A.R is one I have heard of, can i assume that its a good one?

I will be connecting up with 8mb at home, hopfully before christmas..

Definatley recommend F.E.A.R

Awesome FPS, the atmosphere of the game is just immense, may even make you poop yourself a little bit

Definatley worth a look though, the AI in the game will have you really thinking about what your doing rather than just charging in. Plus, some of the weapons are rather meaty

are you a salesmen for FEAR?? ha ha, you have sold the game to me! :> I should go buy it. I run my pc up in a (very cold...which I hope will help OC'ing) attic, so it should add to the atmosphere.

fear is good, well worth the money + multiplayer, havent tried the expansion yet which is meant to be good as well.

dissappointed with doom3 and quake 4 both were generic FPSs games. D3>Q4 by miles. if you get D3 there are several mods which make the game much better IMHO

more of a strategy, RPG and adventure games player

i got prey somewhere but havent played it meant to be pretty good as well.

Far Cry maybe? Abit dated in terms of graphics but its still a great game.

Far Cry with all the 64bit patches still makes a lot of machines tremble

Oblivion maybe?
