Reborn Outcast Posted January 5, 2003 Share Posted January 5, 2003 I would suggest Age of Mythology.. I have it and it is a very good game. If not that then Battlefield: 1942. I've played that and it is a very good game. Or if you have enough money... buy a system *cough* xbox *cough* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clemme w/Stick Posted January 5, 2003 Share Posted January 5, 2003 AoM, War3 or Hitman 2..! I can recommend those..! -Clemme Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dark Warrior Posted January 5, 2003 Share Posted January 5, 2003 Games on which console? For X-Box I highly suggest Splinter Cell and Halo. These are the top games on X-Box. Also Hitman 2 is quite good. Splinter Cell and Hitman 2 are my favourites because they are stealth games. For PC I suggest AOM, Warcraft 3, Splinter Cell (when it is released), and Americas Army. Americas Army is free. If you are interested http://www.americasarmy.com. I can give you a more personal review of a game. Just tell me which system you are aiming for.

Sivy Posted January 5, 2003 Share Posted January 5, 2003 mafia, hitman 2 (if you haven't played hitman 1 then get that also and play that first), rollercoster tycoon 2 those are games that i got recently and think they're great Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(i feel like im crawlin out of a black hole ) Sure:D Splinter Cell imo is one of the best games of its genre. It is a third person stealth game. You take the role of Sam Fisher, an ex-CIA agent. The object of the game is obviously not to kill, but to interrogate enemies and sneak past them. I like this game because light is your enemy and darkness is your friend. Each mission only gives you a very limited amount of ammo to use. You get to shoot out lights, turn off light switches, and other things. I find it has the best graphics of any console, however I'm not sure how the PC version is going to be. If you want to read some reviews just go to google and type Splinter Cell reviews. Every review I have read has given the game a very high rating. This game requires a very good comp however. The game hasn't been released but the demo can be downloaded at http://www.splintercell.com Americas Army (like I said before) is 100% free. It is basically a first-person shooter developed by the American Army to show gamers what it is like to be in the Army. You go through boot camp in single player. Once you have passed basic training you can go on multiplayer. Multiplayer is extremely fun as you get to use real guns that are used in the army today. The teams are divided into Assault and Defense teams. I won't explain it all so go to http://www.americasarmy.com for more info and visit the forums. Warcraft 3 and AOM are very very good real-time-strategy games if you are into that kind of stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agen Posted January 6, 2003 Share Posted January 6, 2003 I suggest Getting GTA3 if you don't already have it. it's great Splinter Cell demo looks amazing on the pc (better than the xbox imho) and is a great game (well it is for the Xbox) Hitman 2- great gmae and you cna't jsut walk in with your bald head anymore! Mafia - Also great No one lives forever 2 - great yet no-one knows Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reborn Outcast Posted January 6, 2003 Share Posted January 6, 2003 Originally posted by Clem 007 NightFire .... rocks (semi-stealth FPS) I'm sprry but I have to disagree with you... All bond games have now become boring and repetative. In my opinion do not get this game... Battlefield: 1942 is a FPS which places you in the body of an (if allied) american, english and russian soldier and you play a campaign with them using tanks, planes, ships (you cna even drive an aircraft carrier!!!), missles, all types of guns and huge gun emplacements. If you chose to play the axis campaign you can take the role of a japanese or german soldier using the same type of weapons and vehicles... just differnet styles... This game has amazing graphics and huge, detailed maps that let you run around anywhere you want and do anything you want... VERY GOOD GAME.

Reborn Outcast Posted January 6, 2003 Share Posted January 6, 2003 Originally posted by Dark Warrior I like 007 Nightfire too. Can you tell me why you DON'T like this game? In my opinion its exactly like the old Bond's but with a couple new things added in. I don't see how they can change the game everytime they make it since the movies never seem to change.. its always the same storyline... im not saying the movies are bad... I love them but they do all ahve the same storyline.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love them but they do all ahve the same storyline.) I agree with this to some point. I found Goldeneye to be a great game when it was released on the N64. It was a classic. Then when the new games were released like The World is Not Enough I was very disappointed. These games seemed to be pointless. But when Nightfire was released I liked it because first of all it is on PC so it has very good multiplayer. The car is too cool and the guns are neat. However I strictly like this game because of it's multiplayer, I would not buy this game for gamecube or any other systems that lack reasonable online capabilities. Yea, and I'm not a big fan of the James Bond movies. I liked the classics but that is all. I agree that the stories seem repetitive. LOTR is more up my alley.
