Ok, I am coming up to complete oblivion...
I have looked on Gamespot...
I have bought some new games....
Nothing compares...
FEAR. Yeah, its ok. Great graphics. Linear gameplay. Not scary.
(I was scared by half life 1, and system shock 2 - (Excellent game!!!)
AOE 3. Nice graphics. Waaaaay to similar to AOE2 for my liking though.
Civilisation IV. Yeah, great game. Very much like championship manager. Might as well be a hermit if you play this game.... Its always... One more turn... Oh go on, one more. Next thing you know, here is the postman....
City Life.... Great big pile of cack... Its 3D. Its certainly NOT sim city 4. Yeah, you can walk around (hint, use the mouse AND the keyboard to move faster than the snail pace thats standard, and why NO minimap in this mode....)
Just played dungeon seige 2 on my m8's computer.... SOOOOooooo glad I didnt buy this game.... Do you own dungeon seige? Then dont buy DS2.
Ok, its gone LAN built in... Might be worth it for that.... But if you liked DS, and your expecting great things from DS2, your going to be VERY dissapointed... IMHO DS is waaaay more enjoyable. DS2 just feels like more of the same....... And DS isnt really a game you want to complete more than once (unlike oblivion)...
I was planning to upgrade my graphics card... But I am seriously considering against it. Even though the lure of playing Oblivion and seriously high res with full AA and HDR is very, VERY compelling... But is it worth spending over £300
on hardware for one game....
I would say YES, but common sense says NO, unless anyone can recommend a seriously good game... Something like System Shock 2. Homeworld.
Or I am selling my rig and going back to playing Win98 games... I got more enjoyment out of Roller Coaster Tycoon than 95% of the current tosh thats being released.
I like Strategy, RPG and Futuristic/.Medievel type games... Anyone got any recommendations, or is time to buy a Nintendo DS and install Linux....
