Guest Imacellphone Posted February 10, 2005 Report Share Posted February 10, 2005 There is plenty of tech talk in here....I have to believe that there are some gamers in here too. Halo, Rome: Total War, Jak and Daxter? ANYTHING!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Imacellphone Posted February 10, 2005 Report Share Posted February 10, 2005 I tend to stick more offline games at the moment. I was in halo 2 MP craze for a while but now it seems as tho im back onto PC games. Just finished up Half Life 2 and im moving on to Medal of Honor: Pacific Assault now. I tried to get into Metal Gear Solid 3, but it just annoyed me...so i'll go back to it after MoH. anyone else? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Chaser81 Posted February 10, 2005 Report Share Posted February 10, 2005 Finished off Half Life 2 and am currently working on Prince of Persia Warrior Within. Didnt think it would be my sort of game, but its really hooked me and I cant stop playing it!! I also play a lot of Counterstrike Source online with my mate Nick, we can usually be found on Teamspeak until the early hours of the morning chatting away as we play. When I am out and about I take my Jam with me and play Age Of Empires a lot! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Monolithix [MVP] Posted February 10, 2005 Report Share Posted February 10, 2005 Counterstrike Source and occasionally Battlefield Vietnam WW2 mod for me...:lol: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest ShaneBoyd Posted February 10, 2005 Report Share Posted February 10, 2005 I'm a big gaming fan. I'll play pretty much everything, but i haven't had a game in a month or so that has really captured my like Halo2 did before Christmas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest bdmoore Posted February 11, 2005 Report Share Posted February 11, 2005 I completed Halo 2 a while back but Half Life 2 is FAR better - currently working through that, when I find time! :lol: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Chaser81 Posted February 11, 2005 Report Share Posted February 11, 2005 Half Life 2 rocks something else! I was gutted when I completed it but I console myself with Counterstrike Source. Valve are apparently launching a new, standalone, single player map for HL2 later this month to show-case their new "Ranged Lighting Effect" based around the Highway 17 chapter. They're calling it the "Lost Coast". Keep your eyes on Steam!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest bdmoore Posted February 11, 2005 Report Share Posted February 11, 2005 Yeah I heard about that - apparently it will only download if your gfx hardware supports the effects though - not sure what the minimum spec is?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Chaser81 Posted February 11, 2005 Report Share Posted February 11, 2005 Cant see how they could restrict the download based on your hardware. You can probably download it, you probably just cant PLAY it without meeting the minimum spec. I think my PC should be okay though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest bdmoore Posted February 11, 2005 Report Share Posted February 11, 2005 They can do a fair amount with Steam but you're probably right there. Hopefully a GeForce FX5700 will be sufficient - I'm not upgrading to a 6800 yet!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Chaser81 Posted February 11, 2005 Report Share Posted February 11, 2005 Got a Radeon 9800 Pro myself, so I think I will be okay... :lol: Just bought Knights of The Old Republic II in my lunch break. Looking forward to playing it when I get home!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looking forward to playing it when I get home!! <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Might have to get that one myself soon - although my other half won't be happy if it's as good as the first one - she won't see me for days! :lol: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest awarner [MVP] Posted February 11, 2005 Report Share Posted February 11, 2005 Finished HL2 a few weeks back now working on Doom3 when I have time :lol: Doom3 definately tries to rely on poor lighting too much but I'm used to that now. Just up to the bit with the skeletons with rocket launchers :/ slightly harder than the other baddies I've waded though. I presume there is a good weapon to use on them.

Guest bdmoore Posted February 12, 2005 Report Share Posted February 12, 2005 I got bored of D3 far too quickly. It's good, but running around in the dark constantly gets a bit tedious. I know I could up the brightness / gamma settings, but then it looks cr*p!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Chaser81 Posted February 13, 2005 Report Share Posted February 13, 2005 I too got bored of Doom and stopped playing it before finishing it. I stopped playing it when you get to Hell. Just couldnt be arsed with the whole "walk forward ten paces... Wait, whats that noise behind me... SMEG!! I didnt see that coming!! Oh hell, I've run out of ammo! *Dies horribly*" It gets boring after the thousandeth time of going through that. On a side issue, Knights of The Old Republic 2 rocks!! Its a bit slow starting but I'm really getting into it now. Just as well I have a week off work next week, I cant stop playing this game for more than ten minutes at a time!!

Guest philgriffiths Posted February 14, 2005 Report Share Posted February 14, 2005 I just can't get enough of Half Life2 myself. only problem i always load it up to just have a quick half an hour and an hour and a half later i'm still playin the damn thing. Im even worse with counter strike:source. I can lose days on there! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Imacellphone Posted February 14, 2005 Report Share Posted February 14, 2005 I refuse to get involved with CS because of that alone...seriously... but i kno what u mean about HL2....30 min easily turns into 2 hours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Chaser81 Posted February 16, 2005 Report Share Posted February 16, 2005 Slower starting than the first but the story is a LOT deeper when it gets going. It kinda ties in with events from the first. I am on the last stage at the moment and its also bloody hard!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
