Now, what is more real? Furthermore, FS2004 came out a year b4 Doom3 and uses a totally diff. engine than Doom3, so let me be the first to say

STFU AND GTFO.

FS2004 owns anyday.

In FS2004 you get to, wait for it, fly a plane.

Wow. I mean really wow. You could have the world's greatest graphics and the realism cranked up to full for all I care. The whole concept is dull as dishwater and twice as lame.

LAN parties at your place must be a riot.

Edit: Though to be fair I expect FS2004 "owns" the flight simulators, and it's probably better than any train driving simulators, or cross-channel ferry simulators or Driving to Work During Rush Hour Simulator 2004....

Dune 2000 n' Wolfenstein 3d.

Those games really rawked back in the day.

As did half-life, first time I saw it.

Oh, and then there was Moonstone.

And a whole bunch of games for the c64.

I had low standards back then, I suppose.

Oh yeah! Dune 2000. the sequel, Emperor Battle for Dune not bad too. One of the earliest 3d RTS.

Half-life was one of those FPS that I enjoyed the most. Storyline sucks you in.

btw, anyone know what you classify games such as "Devil May Cry" as? I was wonder if there were any like that one for PC? That'd be awsome.

No. Its not truly nice to play games with keyboards. but i do have joypads. the thing is DMC requires excellent graphics card to play with i think. if they make it for pc.

http://pc.ign.com/articles/359/359554p1.html -> 9.4/10 by IGN.com

The review mentions the game's hardware requirements are pretty steep for an RPG.

Now I'm bored as sheit and in dire need of a game, preferrably multiplay. Can you mates compare Morrowind to some other RPGs so I can get an idea what it's like? (Anyone compare it to eg WoW?)

Cheers,

It's very much a single player game and it's one of those games you'll either love or hate (trite cliche I know).

The gaming area is absolutely huge and if you just do the "core" quest missions then you'd be missing out on a lot. In some ways it's comparable to GTA: Vice City in that you can do whatever you want, in a way it's actually more open ended because you can choose a class (wizard, warrior, thief, etc) and specialise in that.

The atmosphere is unique, it's a very immersive game Bethesda have taken the time to create a believable world. It's more action orientated than, say, Baldur's Gate in that it's a first person type game with strong RPG elements.

Your best bet (if you have a broadband connection) is to download it from Suprnova (it's 700megs approx) and try it out for yourself. Though don't blame me if you lose a few months of your life to the game.

Edit: The Game of the Year version includes the expansions I believe so for your money you're getting a HUGE game.
