game suggestions

[Pad]

as we recently celebrated new year, im a happy owner of quite some amount of money and i was thinkin about buyin a new game. but i have no clue at all what game i should buy as my last bought game was jk2 in mayand now im completely outdated as i played too much jk2 :D

so what game can u suggest me? AND most important, WHY i should buy it. (im open to all suggestions;))

[Reborn Outcast]

I would suggest Age of Mythology.. I have it and it is a very good game. If not that then Battlefield: 1942. I've played that and it is a very good game. Or if you have enough money... buy a system :) *cough* xbox *cough*

[Clemme w/Stick]

AoM, War3 or Hitman 2..! I can recommend those..!

Games on which console?

For X-Box I highly suggest Splinter Cell and Halo. These are the top games on X-Box. Also Hitman 2 is quite good. Splinter Cell and Hitman 2 are my favourites because they are stealth games.

For PC I suggest AOM, Warcraft 3, Splinter Cell (when it is released), and Americas Army.

Americas Army is free. If you are interested www.americasarmy.com. :)

I can give you a more personal review of a game. Just tell me which system you are aiming for.

mafia, hitman 2 (if you haven't played hitman 1 then get that also and play that first), rollercoster tycoon 2

those are games that i got recently and think they're great

Sure:D

Splinter Cell imo is one of the best games of its genre. It is a third person stealth game. You take the role of Sam Fisher, an ex-CIA agent. The object of the game is obviously not to kill, but to interrogate enemies and sneak past them. I like this game because light is your enemy and darkness is your friend. Each mission only gives you a very limited amount of ammo to use. You get to shoot out lights, turn off light switches, and other things. I find it has the best graphics of any console, however I'm not sure how the PC version is going to be. If you want to read some reviews just go to google and type Splinter Cell reviews. Every review I have read has given the game a very high rating. This game requires a very good comp however. The game hasn't been released but the demo can be downloaded at www.splintercell.com

Americas Army (like I said before) is 100% free. It is basically a first-person shooter developed by the American Army to show gamers what it is like to be in the Army. You go through boot camp in single player. Once you have passed basic training you can go on multiplayer. Multiplayer is extremely fun as you get to use real guns that are used in the army today. The teams are divided into Assault and Defense teams. I won't explain it all so go to www.americasarmy.com for more info and visit the forums.

Warcraft 3 and AOM are very very good real-time-strategy games if you are into that kind of stuff.:)

I suggest Getting GTA3 if you don't already have it. it's great

Splinter Cell demo looks amazing on the pc (better than the xbox imho) and is a great game (well it is for the Xbox)

Hitman 2- great gmae and you cna't jsut walk in with your bald head anymore! :D

Mafia - Also great

No one lives forever 2 - great yet no-one knows

[Clem]

007 NightFire .... rocks (semi-stealth FPS)

Hitman 2 .... rocks (Stealth Fps)

Ut2k3 (mindless murder FPS)

all rock

for rally action

Rallisport Challenge .... i cannont emphasise how SWEET this game looks <drool> :bored:

I'm sprry but I have to disagree with you... All bond games have now become boring and repetative. In my opinion do not get this game...


Battlefield: 1942 is a FPS which places you in the body of an (if allied) american, english and russian soldier and you play a campaign with them using tanks, planes, ships (you cna even drive an aircraft carrier!!!), missles, all types of guns and huge gun emplacements. If you chose to play the axis campaign you can take the role of a japanese or german soldier using the same type of weapons and vehicles... just differnet styles... This game has amazing graphics and huge, detailed maps that let you run around anywhere you want and do anything you want... VERY GOOD GAME. You can find out more at www.battlefield1942.com (http//:www.battlefield1942.com

In my opinion its exactly like the old Bond's but with a couple new things added in. I don't see how they can change the game everytime they make it since the movies never seem to change.. its always the same storyline... im not saying the movies are bad... I love them but they do all ahve the same storyline.)

I agree with this to some point. I found Goldeneye to be a great game when it was released on the N64. It was a classic. Then when the new games were released like The World is Not Enough I was very disappointed. These games seemed to be pointless. But when Nightfire was released I liked it because first of all it is on PC so it has very good multiplayer. The car is too cool and the guns are neat. However I strictly like this game because of it's multiplayer, I would not buy this game for gamecube or any other systems that lack reasonable online capabilities.

Yea, and I'm not a big fan of the James Bond movies. I liked the classics but that is all. I agree that the stories seem repetitive. LOTR is more up my alley.

I :D

[Reborn Outcast]

Yea Goldeneye was the greatest bond game... but you like the multiplayer on Nightfire... I hate the real game (non-multiplayer) :)

Ah, I see what you mean now. Yea if you are only referring to single player then I agree. I did like the car but it was not enough. They need a deeper plot.

i liked single player tbh

but then again i havent played a bond game since goldeneye so i cant see repetitiveness

as to the plot .... lol ... plot .... it has a plot equal to the movies

[Rogue15]

are you looking for older games? if so you can get these for pretty cheap:

Unreal Tournament-great multiplayer
Red Faction-fun single player (tho i only played the demo...)
X-Wing Alliance-awesome star wars game

or you could just send the money to me so i can buy myself a portable cd player. :D

it could be good, but i think not too many ppl would be hapy with a spears game.

think im goin to look for splinter cell.

ps. is AoM the same as age of empires?

[WolfmanNCSU]

Originally posted by Padanime

Yes and No

It is made by the same company and is the same style of play. It is a RTS (city building, army managing, and resource gathering). It had enhanced AI and graphics to its precedures and with only a few changes in gameplay.

But it is not AoE 3. It is a new series since it is leaping back in the time according to the AoE 1 & 2 timeline.

I think is is worth a look, I found the game very enjoyable. I am also a fan of the series, so if you liked the previous tittles, you should like this one too.

Also, if you are thinking about RTS games, give War 3 a look at too. Its simular to its previous titles but they added some new elements that some people really enjoyed (and others did not of course). Its got a bit of a different spin on an RTS game so you should check it out and see if you like it. I really like both AoM and War 3 so those would be my gaming suggestions.

its actually Unreal Tournament 2003 .... or UT2

[Katarn07]

Planet of the Apes for PC.
Couple years old, cheap, nice grahics and no cheats with well-done ape AI makes this game awesome! Don't follow 2001 movie though, more like the 60s ones. But doesn't fit with them either since humans talk...
