Title: what game to buy?
Post by: Snake X on April 30, 2011, 06:04:31 pm
So I will be getting ~$100 soon, and I need some opinions.. What game should I buy? The reason I say game instead of games is because after portal 2, I will have pretty much $50 left. So what is your opinion on what I should get? Oh.. Also system requirements is not an object. Infact I prefer the games that have rediculas requirements such as metro 2033 because they look more realistic and are nicer to view that way imo.

edit: other than crysis, I wish to only get a DX11 game :P

Metro 2033:
It's nice, but really hard sometimes
Crysis 2:
I played only crysis wars.. so idk
BFBC2:
Map is too huge, I don't like getting sniped out of nowhere lol
I am more a Call of Duty player ;)
Mafia II
Nice story, but I don't like it.

If I would get 100€, I would only buy Portal 2 ;D

EDIT: I have a talent at reading only the half of a post :banghead:
But I would save the money and wait for new games to come out.

In your list, I would hesitate between Metro 2033 & Crysis 2, though I've only played Metro 2033, and I really enjoyed it, if it can be of any help ;) !

Otherwise, if you like platform games, you can try 'Super Meet Boy', but it's a very hard game, very challenging (that's why I love it) ... The advantage of this one is that it's really cheap.

And if you like 'arcade' racing games, and if you can wait, perhaps Trackmania 2 ...

(But that's just what I like)

What is Crysis War? Did they join the Halo bandwaggon and made a RTS version of Crysis? I don't follow the FPS scene much so I am unsure.

As for Starcraft II, only get it if you got a newer computer. It's much easier to play than the first (grouping hatcheries on 1 hotkey, 255 unit groups instead of 12 and rankings FTW!) because of less lag during actions (much easier to micro units when they don't take one second to respond), improved controls and ranked matches (you don't have to join/quit games until you don't end up vs a pro Korean where you have no chance to win), but if your computer is old, this will impair your game experience. If you got an old comp, the old Starcraft Brood War is still very great too, just a bit more annoying to play.

If you can find it, there's also Unreal Tournament 2004. You will be able to play with people on Cemetech.

What is Crysis War?
Standalone Crysis multiplayer. Nice that you dont have to enter a key and there are much cracked servers ;)
