hey guyz. given i had a piece of computer for the past years (400MHz Celeron processor), and got this one at the end of last year (rocking an AMD 2.0GHz dualcore), i was unable to play any computer games really. so i missed a lot of good ones.
i finished playing Fallout and Fallout 2 a few weeks back (IF YOU HAVEN'T PLAYED IT, GET IT NOW. PURE OWNAGE) and i'm looking for some great titles i didn't play.
have been playing the original Unreal for a couple of days now, but i find it a bit disappointing. it is, really, just running around shooting things. there's supposed to be a story, but it doesn't show in the game. every now and then you get a bit of text in the "translator" that tells you something, but it's not very involving, IMO. i currently just got out of Chizra's Temple, any past players think i should continue? is Unreal II the same thing?
i like just about every single genre out there, as long as the game is good. hell, i hated RPGs, but then i played Fallout, which is an RPG basically, and it has to be my favorite game ever. |

Well these are all older than Fallout, but meh - they're fun and they'll take you a bit of time:
Full Throttle
Maniac Mansion
Secret of Monkey Island (All the Monkey Island games)
Baldurs Gate
Police Quest 1-3 |

I didn't have a lot but I really enjoyed 'Hover' which was for Windows 95 I think. I wish there was a Mac version of it though.
I also had one called 'Myst' which was more interactive and involved solving puzzles but i don't think I ever completed it. |

jesus christ, most of those games would scream on a celeron 400mhz...
Half Life 1/2
Jedi Knight II: Outcast
Mobil 1 Rally
GTA3-SA
others. my computer left gaming status years ago, but there have been loads.
if you like driving sims and wanna get a wheel GT Legends is incredible, very difficult and requires mods since its a 97 era game, but the driving/physics model is incredible| |

| Yeah - I haven't really cared for the majority of PC games released since about the mid 90's. :p |
