[CW]

join me in this new club

Mr.Cheese signs on the dotted line...then shoots it with the rocket launcher he just picked up.

 

[CW]

Dude SWAT 3 and the sum of all fears are pretty sweet games.

 

[Mr.Cheese]

Hey man, I study too much to hang out here. I'm in the middle of SOF II. Nice bloody game. Hard game. But good. Yeah, I've read up on SWAT. I gotta get through what I have before I get more.
I'm all about the new Deus Ex coming out.

 

[CW]

SOF II? Delta Force 1,2, and 3 suck.

 

[Mr.Cheese]

Yeah, it's called Soldier of Fortune II Double Helix.
I've heard some of the Clancy FPS's are awesome. Good grief, they come out with them faster than I can play them. I use them for stress relief. SOF II is pretty foul sometimes. You'll shoot somebody and be like, "Eww! that didn't just happen!" Someone has told me to check out Counterstrike online.
Ohhh...Serious Sam II. Brand new it's like 20 bucks. It's hilarious. You have to own this game!

lol

I just got Battlefied 1942, its pretty cool.

 

[JohnnyG]

Unreal Tournament and UT2k3 are what I'm playing atm....not too much UT but I rent a server so I feel the need to play once in awhile until I can upgrade it to UT2k3.

I can't find a decent server for BF1942, I haven't look in a few weeks so maybe there is a patch or something to fix netcode but I thought it was a sweet game with a junk netcode.

Aye caramba... all this computer talk is making my head spin...

Sooo... I'm looking for a good FPS. I'm relatively inexperienced. What should I get first?

What kind of computer specs do you have, some of the new games won't play on older video cards

Well, it's a 2002 computer, lol. Does that help? Nah, didn't think so.

Hmmm, let's see... Pentium 4, 1.70Ghz, 128MB RAM, Advanced 4X AGP graphics... Does that help?

 

[JohnnyG]

The CPU is most powerful but like the video card.... I have a GeForce 2 MMX 32mb it was nice a couple years ago but now its basically bottom of the barrel when it comes to gaming.

What kind of stuff do you like, take for instance the game Unreal Tournament or Unreal Tournament 2003 great for some instant action shoot em up and get it out of your system. Or No One Lives Forever its a FPS but its more story driven. Check out this site http://gamespot.com/gamespot/filters/top10/0,11997,6013054,00.html it lists the top games by score and gives reviews. Hope this helps.

 

[Caedmon]

Dude, there's a lot to choose from. Ok, I hope this is not a stupid question, but are there any out there that don't have a "Mature" rating, or at least don't have you killing humans?

 

[JohnnyG]

Ummm I think there is a game called nerf arena or something like that..... not many though I'm guessing. Aleins vs Predator I think you can be the Alein or Predator and hunt the other down...dunno never played it.

In Return to Castle Wolfenstein you hunt down Nazis

Here is a link

[JohnnyG]

In Serious Sam I & II you fight aleins, and they are priced under $20 I think

 

[JohnnyG]

Here is another link, Electronic Boutique, they give ratings, reviews, and prices. I'm not sure where you live but I have a EBGames in a mall and I think they are fairly common.

[Caedmon]

Serious Sam sounds good. I heard that it's goofy, but that's cool with me. Even though I would think the Nazis had it coming, I dunno, it just freaks me out to kill humans.

wow busy thread. We have a 8 mb vedio card i wish we could have a G force 2 or 3. But we don't have any RGp slots or what ever you call them.
