Braid. Awesome game, but short.

 

Oddworld?

Abe's Oddysee and Abe's Exxodus...both are available on Steam...

Blackthorne from Blizzard, but that would require DosBox which is an emulator...but if you go that way, then you open up Prince of Persia, Flashback, Jazz Jackrabbit, Commander Keen, Duke Nukem I and II and Manhattan Project (which slides into 3D much like Fade to Black after Flashback)...Manhattan Project is available on gog.com and while not a pure 2D side scroller may satisfy that itch....

 

Bionic Commando: Rearmed is also a nice little side-scroller. Might also wanna check out Booster Trooper.

 

a good mutliplayer game would be soldat.... quite fun!

 

duke nukem: manhattan project

 

Really? Maybe I'll get that. I didn't really like BC2's SP campaign. This any better?

 

Hello! guys well I'm going to tell my situation. I'm in my sister house and the internet here is not fast at all. I barely can use youtube. I was thinking to spend 60 dollars in games on steam. They must be single player and entertaining ! =D
I heard about crysis and crysis warhead but I dont know if they game sucks or not. I want to play the new fallout new vegas but oh well hahaha so guys tell me what do you think I should buy?

 

Those are a three good candidates right there except Fallout is more of an RPG w\guns than it is a shooter.

I recommend:

Bioshock
Crysis
Fallout 3 + New Vegas (Rpgs)
Borderlands (multiplayer but has great single player campaign)
Mafia II (sandbox 3rd person shooter)
Darksiders (not a shooter)
Dead Rising 2 (not a shooter)
Bioshock 2 (not as good as the first)
Transformers war for cybertron (3rd person)
S.T.A.L.K.E.R. Games (awesome unique shooters but does not fit everyone's tastes)

 

Well I only test splinter cell conviction on my m11x so like ... I wanted to try something ''bigger''. I played bioshock only. I wanted a game to pass my time you know like 3 weeks till I get black ops for my ps3 =). I think I'm going to get crysis but I dont know if I'll get medium graphics with my m11x r1.

 

How about Mass effect and Mass Effect 2, or Assassin's Creed 2.

Fallout 3 and New Vegas are huge games 100+ hours if you do side missions.

 

+1 for Crysis and Fallout 3, mass effect

 

what graphics card have you got.depending which you got you might get medium settings which will be fine.
crysis is a great game and will keep you going until blackops.
thing is if youve got a bad internet connection then playing through steam needs the internet so you might struggle a bit.

 

I got the Nvidia 335M pretty good graphics card. I heard that fallout new vegas runs like a dream on computers instead of 360 and ps3 that needs more time between loadings and play. Mass effect is an interesting choice....I played the demo....But I wanted to play the first one because my mate told that the game got a perfect story. I'm thinking between crysis+crysis warhead or fallout new vegas >.<

 

batman AA on steam at the moment for 66% off Save 66% on Batman: Arkham Asylum Game of the Year Edition on Steam

dont get warhead before crysis. warheads a good game but you got to play the original to pick up the storyline first.

 

I'm think between the crysis bundle pack or Fallout new vegas. And yes Batman is in a good deal but I played it on ps3 already Great game By the way.

 

lol if you can barely view youtube how can you download a single player game?

And get Just cause 2.

 

>Crappy internet.
>Steam.

No.

 

Well I usually download 4 gb in 2 days or something I got time so I'm okay

 

Get Just Cause 2 then

4.8gb download which is exceptionally small for such a huge game.

 

Square Enix is almost as bad as Ubisoft for craptastic console ports. Not saying Just Cause 2 isn't a worthy game, but found that game is pretty difficult to run, seems horribly coded.

 

You can always get Starcraft 2 and play the single player campaign. Can buy and download at battle.net. Other good, fun, RTS games is Company of Heroes.

Or for FPS Borderlands, Mass Effect 2, Half-Life 2 if you haven't played yet.

Sins of a Solar Empire and Civilization 4 pack are fun and can take tons of time if you're just bored and want to spend time doing something.

 

not sure if it still comes with it but crysis warhead used to come with the free multiplayer crysis wars. so if you but the package youd get 3 games for price of 2.

 

Yeah, its on the same level as CoD 4's SP, which was pretty amazing. I think I actually like the MoH singleplayer more than the CoD 4 singleplayer, although it is a bit short.

 

I'm looking for a good pc rpg or shooter with a good single player campaign. I pretty much fail at multiplayer so I only look at storyline/gameplay and not unique/awesome multiplayer campaigns.

 

Should I get Batman: Arkham Asylum GOTY Edition off Steam for $14? I usually play RPG and FPS games, but it looks like it could be fun. Also, whats different about the GOTY edition? Thanks.

 

What games have you played recently? We'd be wasting our time listing games that you've possibly already played. That said, I'd highly recommend Mass Effect 1 & 2, they're mostly RPG with some shooter mixed in. Some of the best games I've ever played, and behind only Chrono Trigger for best storyline.

 

I would recommend CoD 2, 4, World at War, BFBC2 and Section 8 as these are some of the only FPS's with SP campaigns I found worthwhile. On the RPG/FPS side, the Stalker series is way worth the time if you follow the campaign through as well as Fallout 3. I even liked the orig Far Cry campaign and of course Crysis though Crysis campaigns can be completed in a sitting but there are tons of downloadable missions for Crysis.

 

Heh... it's in the eye of the beholder really. For me, Fallout 3 is more an FPS with level ups than real RPGs.

 

Any city building game? Looking for something like caesar iv , zeus& poseidon.

 

If you don't have Emperor: Rise of the Middle Kingdom, check it out. Also I had a lot of fun with Grand Ages: Rome.

 

Does anyone know any PC game that is very similar to final fantasy X?

So turn based RPGs or something. Thanks!

 

Hmmm. The only one I can think of (and it's not a particularly good game) is The Last Remnant (you can try the demo: Download: The Last Remnant Demo)

 

Can any recommend good single player mods and/or total conversions for Doom 3 and Quake 4?

Thanks!

 

Kings bounty is a really good series on PC...check it out on steam...very fun

 

Any good FPS' that are also cheap? or any decent COD4 servers?

The servers I like are always empty now, sick of MW2 and not a fan of Bad Company 2. Also kind of bored with L4D 1 and 2.

 

Let's say I can only buy one game out of the following, which one do you guys recommend?

Warhammer 40,000: DoW II
DoW II Chaos Rising
STALKER Shadow of Chernobyl
STALKER Call of Pripyat
Bioshock 1
Bioshock 2
Rainbow six vegas 2

Thanks!

 

Stalker SoC for the sheer mod factor. Tons of solutely awesome mods out there for the game.

 

I would get BioShock 1 because the story is pretty awesome. It is definitely one of those must play games.

 

Any user reviews on theatre of war?? I have men of war, but have not started playing it yet as I am busy with Ruse, but reviews on TOW seems mixed. I do love a good realistic rts though.

 

Anyone have any recommendations of games for a couple of teenagers?

Am pretty clueless as to what's most popular for this group and could use the advice...

 

Call of Duty Modern warfare 2 for first person shooter game

 

Thanks for that advice, I'll definitely pick that up. Know it will be a big hit with at least my son!

 

Or Call of Duty Black Ops. It's the newest one in the series (just came out today!).

 

I need a good, always played FPS multiplayer, I've narrowed it down to these

1.CS:S - I know your all like WHAT but I've been console gaming for a while time to get back into pc, this is an option

2.Frontline:fuel of war - looks decent, does it have an active communtiy, and is there xp leveling? stat tracking?

3. BF2142 - Is there a good strong community?

4. BF2

5. BFBC2 - I own this already on PS3 but it died now thinking of rebuying it here

6. CoDBlack Ops

7. UT3 - Already own on ps3 but if the community is strong on pc ill pick it up

8. L4D 1 or 2 - which ever has more people

9. MoH

So what will it be, or if there is another well played, balanced and fairly cheater less fps multiplayer please list.

 

What about Team Fortress 2? It's worth considering...

 

anyone know a good fighter jet game with good graphics?:

 

H.A.W.X. but it's extremely arcade (think Ace Combat) so I don't like it. At the other end of the spectrum you have Lock On Modern Air Combat which is a bit old but it's extremely realistic and it's kinda annoying.

I prefer something in the middle, which currently does not exist.

 

DogFighter is not bad either, its not Jets its airplanes but it was only $2.50 a week or so ago so it may still be on sale or cheap to buy.

 

Fighter jet game... with good graphics? Well that depends on your definition but I really enjoy Altitude.
