Duke Nukem Forever

[brewshooter]

I'm finally getting around to playing Battlefield Bad Company 2. I enjoyed the first game quite a bit. I think I'll go pour myself a pint and fire it up for an hour or so before hitting the sack!

I put a goodly amount of hours in to WoW but I'm happy I quit. I quit because I wanted to spend time with more constructive hobbies that WoW was taking all my time away from. Ever since then I've vowed to not touch an MMO ever again.
I remember when I used to have a good time with Battlefield but that was in the 1942 days. I gave Bad Company 2 a chance but found that the community sucked pretty bad on the PC and was full of guys who'd rather lay there and look down their scope than contribute to the team. I'm also not fond at all of being raped so often. So naturally I'm pretty sure I wouldn't at all like the third.

I would say give it a try, i wasnt a fan of bf bad company 2 for the same reason you said...damn snipers...but bf3 is probably the best shooting game ive ever played. At least rent it, i love it so much. All my COD addicted friends have switched over

 

[ichbinmuede]

Hah afraid rent is a no. I'm strictly a PC guy when it comes to FPS games. I just can't stand those damn sticks for aiming.

I tried the original battlefield and it was ok, it just didn't suck me in. I never played bf2, but the videos guy make and put on youtube can be a riot. I play WarCraft 1 and 2 and loved them both. WoW I never had an interest in. While WoW is undeniably successful, I don't understand why they didn't expand on the original genre.
Was anyone here a Tribes fan? It was brilliant online warfare FPS. That game sucked years of my life away.

Was anyone here a Tribes fan?

As a young lad, that game was my life for a period of time. Boy, does that bring back some memories. Anyone here remember Quake 3 or Unreal Tournament? Both games came out right around the same time (1999 or so), and I played both of them to death.

Couple of games I wish I still had....
Descent
Necrodome

I am enjoying Runescape now. Never liked the shooting genre.

I remember quake and unreal tournament used to play them quite a lot.

I've played Wolfenstein and Tribes a bunch too.
It's been a WHILE though.

Descent, I'd almost forgotten about that one!

Same. After 5 years I finally quit playing for good about 4 months ago. That was a hard habit (addiction?) to break. I'm currently in school and over time WoW after homework turned into WoW before and after homework, which then turned in to WoW instead of homework!
I finally had to stop as my grades were starting to slip. Hmmmmm what's more important? A degree or an imaginary fantasy character? Thats a tough one... :crazy:
