I like the weapons But the graphics are amazing, and the storyline is really good. I can't believe it's taken me so long to try this game.

If you're playing it at all that must mean you've got Steam. If you've got Steam, you absolutely MUST play the Half Life 2 Episodes. They expand on the gameplay in interesting ways but the story improves dramatically. That's saying a lot considering how good the story line in this series already was.



And about MechWarrior, I have played the board game but it's been a really long time. I agree about the auto-cannons in MW3 kind of cheapening the game a bit but the game itself was pretty phenomenal. The fourth game looked good but lacked the customization of 2 and 3 and the combat was just so slow. That's the biggest criticism of Chromehounds I've read as well. I like mechs and all, but I like them to play like a hybrid of a FPS and flight-sim rather than slow and plodding.

Yep, I have Steam and it has Lost Coast listed :D I'll give the Episodes a shot when I've finished playing the game - thanks for the tip!

I haven't had a chance to play any games for a while.. the last was Half-Life 2 (thanks Meatpuppet).

Any new games out there that are worth a try?

Meatpuppet

The Force Unleashed was really disappointing, if you ask me. The games I'm most looking forward to are Fable 2, Fallout 3 and Left 4 Dead. Fable 2 is an Xbox 360 only release as of right now, but it will probably get ported to the PC after a few months. Both Fallout 3 and Left 4 Dead look to be game of the year contenders.

Thanks guys :) I'll probably get hammered for this, but I'm not really a great Star Wars fan. I've been really looking forward to Left 4 Dead.. last I heard it was being released for the PC in the UK at the end of November.

I watched some previews of it on YouTube last month and it looks awesome. Does it come out earlier in the US does anyone know?

Left 4 dead...hmm is that the zombie one? cant say ive played it but ill have to check it out :)
