Hi

Been out of pc gaming for a long time and recently has an upgrade (x850 to 4850!!! What a jump!) so looking to make the most out of it.

I'm abit too tired of fps, and already bought crysis to play when I I feel like head shooting (ive just been using it for benching)

I am a metal gear solid fan so would prefer something with a well written storyline, like final fantasy long story type.

Very open in genre but no mmorpg's, sorry just can't stand them. Don't mind console ports either as I have a 360 pad.

Thanks a lot. Well fire away...
 
Half Life 2, HL2 Episode 1, HL2 Episode 2

just buy the 'orange box' on steam, you get a lot of awesome games
 
If your a strategy fan theres a load of good ones out there, here's a few:

Medieval 2: Total War
Command & Conquer 3 (good story too)
Universe at War
 
Universe at war that good ? i think i saw it somewhere cheap but i was not really sure if it was worth it
 
Mass effect is very good i really enjoyed it.

But tbh Orange box would be the best buy you will ever make. (if you havnt already played the games in the orange box ofc)

PORTAL F.T.W !!!
 
already played COD4 on ps3 to the bone ;). I played Halflife 1 back in the day but can't be bothered playing orange box as the engine is abit out of date.

Had a looked into mass effect, grabbing a demo atm.

Thanks, any more
 
I honestly dont know maybe he was being sarcy or maybe it was a really bad joke.

There is no way he can be serious !
 
I've been playing HL2:EP1 (having completed HL2 standard back in 2004??) and the story is really good. Can't wait to start EP2.

Half-Life 2 must be have one of the best stories to any game I've played. :D

What's the story in Crysis like?? haven't played it yet, only got it yesterday.
 
Hehe, I love getting flamed ;)

But I want a game to seriously test my graphics card. Well I might skim through halflife 2 in god mode to see what the fuss is about. Btw would I need to complete half life 1 to appreciate the story? Or would orange box be a good start. I already got hl1 original on steam, should I start on that?


Not played crysis yet, but definatly will as it is good eye candy and highly recommended.
 
you didnt say anything about testing graphics card you said a good game with a story line :D
nah you should be ok with not playing half life 1. just jump into hl2
playing hl1 is a bonus at some points but not essential

I did say that I want to make the most of the upgrade . Sorry if not clear

Does orange box include the original hl2? Or is hl2:ep1 = hl2 original?
 
It includes HL2, HL2:EP1, HL2:EP2, Portal, TF2 and Peggle Extreme (good puzzle ball game) :)

I have Crysis but find myself still playing HL2 :o

CoD4 is also very good btw, both online and singleplayer, but you've already played it :p
