I've been playing the same 2 games for awhile now, and sometimes I find myself wanting to play a game, but not one I have. All I really play is PS, and Tribes 2. What other shooter do you recommend? I dont think I want UT, I already have Tribes 2 for that sort of extreme fragging. How good is BF1942?

BF 1942 is cool. Especially the Desert Combat mod, which I cant play anymore. Damn dialup. :flamemad: But if ya want something new check out Farcry. Haven't had a chance to play it yet but every thing I've heard is good. Here is a link for some trailers I checked out http://www.farcry.ubi.com/movies.php

FarCry's good for singleplay, not that great for multiplay.

I would still recommend UT2k4, since the "extreme fragging" you mention in Tribes 2 is so much better in UT. Plus, Onslaught multiplayer is simply awesome.

Bf:V would be my main suggestion. I would elaborate why, but there's too many reasons for me to take the time to write about.

Yeah, try BF:V, and get a 14-day trial of EVE. And don't even think about CS :D

depends on how good of a system you have.


if you have a good one, get Far Cry

if not, get BF1942 or something, or max payne 2, lots of single player fun there.

Fuck FPS's! Go grab Neverwinter Nights for ~$15.00 on eBay, and be totally addicted! It's such an amazing game...

You might as well get the eve trial, but if you want to continue playing it you need to invest some time in it to be good at it. A couple months atleast.

Far Cry singleplayer lots of fun.

BF:V also fun but I'm starting to get sick of it.

I can't wait for S.T.A.L.K.E.R. : Shadow of Chernobyl.

Eve, AoE2, Rise of Nations, Counterstrike, BF1918, Desert Combat, or Pirate mod for BF1942, GTA3 or Vice City, Runescape, Black and White, or Diablo II.

Runescape? People still play that thing? Damn... That F.E.A.R. game looked sweet, but it isn't out yet so that doesn't help ya I guess.

Yep yep yep! Neverwinter does a great job of combining authentic 3E rules with good graphics and a solid storyline. The addiction factor is strong in this one.

While I admit that NWN is an excellent game, there is the small problem of it having NO REPLAYABILITY. EVER. EVER EVER EVER.


Unless, you managed ot get a fully legit key code (coughTHATWORKScough) and can play online. But, my LEGIT key code didnt work, so I had to Kazaa it, and it didnt work for online play. Oops.


But yeah. After beating the main campaign, I started a new one, cheated my sorcerer to level 20, and fireballed all the NPC's :D

I played through NWN. when I finished it I played it online in a PW Action server. got to like lvl 18 or something.

How is it hard to get a legitimate key code?

Also, I disagree with you on the replayability factor. Obviously, you are not going to play through the whole game as a Barbarian, then play through again as a Barbarian. But I think that it's fun to play through as, say, a Fighter, then play through as a Rogue. It's really a totally different game when you change classes from a hack-and-slash dumbass to a sneaky crossbow trapper. And online play is insanely fun. I'm probably going to go to the official forums, and just find someone to play through the OC with. Also, Arena playing is really fun.

Im not dissing on the difference of classes. Im simply saying, that because its a very linear, one-path game, you really have a lot of the fun sucked out of it, as opposed to say, Morrowind.

I used the key code in the manual. It didnt work, so I searched for "NWN keygen" on kazaa, and got one that did. I dont feel the least bit guilty doing that if I have bought the game.
