ifonlyitwaseasier

well a whole new board to play on!

so i online game a bit and have learnt that the free ones are as good as a lot of the paid ones.

which games would you recommend to a newbie online gamer?

I'd chose perfect world, as its easy to play and freeeeeeeee!

I'm more of a console gamer, but when I get on the PC it's normally RuneScape, Diablo2/3 and Minecraft.

Playing though the DeathSpank series on the PS3 at the moment

I'm also a console user and my favorite types of game tend to be Halo, Asassins Creed, Gears of War etc. Not too sure about my future with the Halo franchise now the Xbox One has been announced. We'll see what happens when I've seperated the fact from the fiction!

RFB, look up "I'm In Love With Halo" on Youtube

I like RPG-style games (I LARP, so I would really ) and interesting games like Ico. Tend to be a little retro in my tastes sometimes - the original Silent Hill and 2, Final Fantasy VII, etc.

Battlefield: Bad Company 2 is the game for me, I can't stop playing the damn thing!!

Online it's Uncharted 3 for me (and The Last Of Us shortly!).

Got bored of COD with too many idiots blaring music, and Battlefield 3 lacked a certain fun factor for me though it's technically excellent.

LBP for the light fun, and Portal 2 for something different.

Single player its Fallout, BioShock, Uncharted, Civ IV (PC obviously).

PC:
Used to play WoW but that game has gone downhill (or changed beyond recognition for me over the years) so i give that up.

Been playing LoL lately, tried to get some friends in to it but all of them are nowhere near patient enough to learn the game, it's got a very steep learning curve.

Other stuff include BF2:BC which I'm terrible at, Skyrim (but using a 360 controller) which was fun while it lasted, but trying out different playstyles' and repeating the same stuff over and over on multiple characters ground me down a bit. Trackmania 2 is a good laugh, played the open Beta, F1 2010 (cause i enjoyed that when i had a 360).

Console:

Mostly play round at my friends, so Halo 2 for nostalgia reasons (and also being my favorite game of all time), guitar hero/rock band games just as a laugh, F1 All-stars, Left4Dead 2 with 2 consoles, back to back TV's in Versus mode.

I honestly don't game much anymore, but i do keep up with latest releases etc, somewhat and mess around on some things sometimes.

Random, but when did RS go to 200cmb? I don't quite understand when I missed that I haven't played in quite some time properly, and just randomly logged in to see I wasn't nekkid stuck in the middle of wildy missing my bank etc and I'd been moved to Burpy (burthorpe?) and people had skill levels and I caught sight of a lvl 200. I gave up after I ran out of buyable skills few years ago >.<

I've been enjoying Back to the Future game (PC series) which I got for about a fiver on one of these game packs. I also got walking dead, but I literally got about 10 mins in and am stuck and can't get out of the situation. Basically think just right outside the tute time :rotfl:

on the wii, pikmin, all the way, repetitively, and several types of pikmin games. I used to be addicted to lemmings on the PC.

Minecraft and Xcom: Enemy Unknown for me, neither online, and both on the 360.

call of duty Black ops 2, its ok if you have a few mates to party up with on steam but offern nothing new from black ops same with moderwarefare. CODBO 2 zombies is good aswell.

planetside 2 is a free to play MMO completely insane game that can keep you occupied for hours theres loads to get in and play with from land tanks to aircraft, engineer, infiltrator (sniper),medic etc there hundreds of people in one server to fight against and is moderated all the time by SOE Devs always being updated and hotfixed with something new and better. your system will need to modern to play it though and friday night ops in (Paciffic time) you get to team up with the game developers and play alongside them you have three factions to choose from aswell.

an old game i used to play is jointoperations typhoon rising, and expansion pack JOTR escallations theres also ICE MOD that fun aswell and picked up from amazon for £3 or 4 (you will need a new one for the product key)

darksiders is another beafy game for the PC

crysis, crysis2.

resident evil series get the heart going too.

Fancy new board! Team Fortress 2 is a good one and free through steam
