I think the thread asked, what games do we like to play, as in..on the PC or the consoles? Not just which games!

I generally play only shooters and trust my gaming mouse to do the honors, of course on PC. In addition I bought a 2 years back PS2, sold it back to where I bought it from in 3 days. It was a joke as compared to my gaming PC.

WOLF3D
Doom I and II
Max Payne I and II (III is coming soon)
Soldier of Fortune I and Double Helix
Quake I, II and IV
GTA Vice City and GTA San Andreas
Far Cry (II is coming soon)
Crysis (Crysis Warhead is coming soon)
Call of Duty I, II and IV
Medal of Honor Allied Assault
Medal of Honor Pacific Assault

I might have missed a few.
Another thing to add - I have FINISHED every game listed here to the end without cheats of course...

My current PC config is

AMD X2 6400 3.2GHz
ASUS 690G Chipset MB
Gigabyte Nvidia 8600M GT 512MB GDDR2
Transcend 4GB JetRam
Seagate 250 GB SATA + Seagate 160 GB IDE
LG 16X DVDR
Samsung 32" LCD

In the world of PS3 & 360s, I dont own any.
I use a 5 year old PC. So game titles are from that era.
I finished NFS-UG1, GTA 3.
Both of them are not there on my PC anymore.

But one of them has been with me forever. Need For Speed - Porsche Unleashed.
I have been playing that game since 7 years, I guess. Till date it impresses me.
Few months back I was bored and tried at Manual Transmission. There after never ever used A/T.
Couple of friends play in Multiplayer Mode and it is fun all the time. We play for hours.

My favourite car - '95 993 Turbo. The fastest after GT1 ofcourse. But sure it matches GT1 on many tracks.

My backyard - Cote D Azur & Monte Carlo 1.

I can go on and on for Porsche Unleashed. I really love the game.

Colin McRae, Colin McRae, Colin McRae..in that order.

Offtopic: I hate shooting / killing games and others where you run over pedestrians etc.

Guys, I have a problem with NFS Carbon game. I am unable to switch off the motion blur which makes the game slower. I heard that some features are not supported on certain graphic cards.

My config:
Core2duo @ 2.20 Mhz
2GB RAM
Intel G31PR Mthrboard
XFX Nvidia 8500GT 512MB DDR2 graphics card

Please suggest best graphic settings to play games like Ghost Recon2, NFS prostreet, Most Wanted, Carbon, Colin Mcrae 05, DIRT, GRID etc

My current favourite
Codemasters' -Race Driver Grid on PC

My long time favourite- Boxing on the Wii

All are PS3 based?

I love Assasin's creed. Though it took me several attempts to get past the first 5 minutes. See, i am getting old

My list for PS3 games goes as :

Ratchet & Clank : Tools of Destruction
F1
Resistance : Fall of the Man
Gran Turismo 5 ( Prologue)
Assasin's Creed

I also have Motostorm but dont enjoy playing that anymore.

jayguar · 12th September 2008, 10:28

2. NFS - Carbon
3. EA Sports - FIFA 2008
All games in PC

Currently playing Hellgate London, its ok not as great as Diablo was, but pretty much similar to it, in terms of weapon modifications, etc. etc. I dont like the fact that the maps are not too many and you tend to see the same type of maps in various levels again and again. OK game, but only playing it as I have nothing new right now.
