Treacherous Mercenary Posted January 27, 2003 Share Posted January 27, 2003 Well, considering I have won a bet for the superbowl, I think I'll be getting a game with my new computer next month. Only one problem, I don't know what game to get, so I'm looking for suggestions from all of you guys! Rainbow Six III: Raven Shield (Having second thoughts) Command & Conquer: Generals Battlefield 1942 Age of Mythology My specs shall officially be in case I'm asked for some reason : AMD Athlon XP 1800+ 1.57Ghz Geforce 4 Ti 4200 128MB DDR 512DDR333 RAM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reborn Outcast Posted January 27, 2003 Share Posted January 27, 2003 Ouch those are all good games but I would say Battlefield: 1942. If you don't want that then get Age of Mythology. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WolfmanNCSU Posted January 27, 2003 Share Posted January 27, 2003 Well, I have Age of Myth and I can highly recommend the game if you are a fan or have enjoyed the other games in the series. I have not done anything with BattleField, so I cant much for or against it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luke Skywalker Posted January 30, 2003 Share Posted January 30, 2003 I say CnC: Generals... I've been following it for a while now (http://www.cncgenerals.com I've got 800 odd posts there... really good forums ) and it has really been shapping up into what looks like a smash hit. If you were disappointed with RA2 then give CnC another try because Generals is simply amazing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here's the article. http://www.shacknews.com/onearticle.x/24749 Also some info below: - EA Pacific and Westwood Studios are closing. - They will NOT be 'gone'. - They are switching to Los Angeles. - They have not yet decided on a name - C&C has a future - This is not a hinderment. - This is 'an amazing opportunity' - Louis Castle I say CnC: Generals...

If you were disappointed with RA2 then give CnC another try because Generals is simply amazing. Well.... The company has already ruined two games this far. I don't think I will be buying Generals until most likely later this year when I actually see the support get better anyways. Of course upon hearing that a unit became useless with the first or second patch, I will not buy anymore seeing they would be too lazy to balance themselves.....

Luke Skywalker Posted January 30, 2003 Share Posted January 30, 2003 They didn't ruin RA2... they slaughtered it. It was a terrible game. Just terrible. Lots of first generation 3d RTS's were being released and RA2 was just a money grab... it had a dev time of half that of normal games and was released way too early... but I'd still give generals a chance...

Toonces Posted January 30, 2003 Share Posted January 30, 2003 It's all about BF:1942 for me, I've been addicted to that game since the day I got it If you DO end up with BF, you gotta check out Desert Combat A fantastic mod headed up by the great Frank DeLise (Of Discreet fame) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kylilin Posted January 30, 2003 Share Posted January 30, 2003 Save your money and wait for that Star Wars mmorpg to come out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Praetorian Posted January 30, 2003 Share Posted January 30, 2003 Without a doubt, get BF1942. When I got the game, well, let's just say I was instantly addicted. I started the game about 5:00pm Friday night, played until 2:30am (something I never really do), and beat the game after about 4 hours the next morning. In short, I've NEVER done this before. Any game that can get me this addicted is AWESOME and worth every dollar. And multiplayer, well, that's another whole story of addiction. All I have to say is LAN PARTY!!!

Treacherous Mercenary Posted January 31, 2003 Author Share Posted January 31, 2003 Originally posted by Kylilin Save your money and wait for that Star Wars mmorpg to come out. I'm not going to buy a game that will cost more money after buying it for $50 at least.. Besides, I'm waiting for SW:K which shall hopefully be out abit before my birthday. As for BF, looks like I'll be getting the game afterall a month later that is. As for RA2, I thought it was fine until WW ruined the game altogether. Their too lazy to balance units....
