Hi,

I did buy IGI2 from ebay.com for Rs. 299/= + 65 for shipping, but did not like the game as much as IGI1. Please suggest me the best stealth shooting games which are better than or on par with IGI1.

Thanks and Regards,

Raj

Stealth games, I'd recommend the Splinter Cell series. It contains more tactical stuff and less shooting though. Try something like Hitman which can be played stealthily or with a balls-out-madness approach.

Please explain what balls-out-madnees means!! I am sure several people here would love to know!!

As of now, i like playing COD4, GRAWF2 and IGI2 and other then that i like NFS Hot Pursuit and NFS Underground2 the most. Since i am done with all the above games, i will want to finist POP series also. I played its DOS games and liked them very much. So want to experience POP advanced ver games now.

IIRC it's around 25k. Saw the price in Croma at Pune.

Finished playing Hummer 4x4 on PC. Awesome game and some good physics.

Hi everyone, I am a convert as well meaning I only buy original games now that I am working and can afford them....
I'm surprised no one mentions DIRT a lot because that is one heel of a racing. I have two world records in the same game as well....
I played and over played the following games....
GRID
NFS:Most Wanted
NFS: Underground/Underground 2
NFS:Carbon
DIRT
PURE
MotoGp2007 etc....

I totally love playing Ratchet and Clank :Tools of Destruction on PS3

After gaming exlusively on PC, and i have now shifted to consoles and never looked back. Gaming while sitting on your ultra comfy living room recliner and seeing it in a large screen TV and hearing it on a full fledged DTS system is unbeatable. Plus the added advantage of not having to tweak with graphics/keyboard settings, getting some exercise (in case of certain Wii titles), and involving the family in some cool multiplayer games

PC Games Completed (1997-)

Doom & Doom 2
Screamer
Need For Speed 2
Quake
Warcraft 2
Heroes of Might and Magic 2
Command & Conquer
Diablo (and Hellfire)
Heroes of Might and Magic 3
Diablo 2
Unreal Tournament
Quake 3
GTA
Heroes of Might and Magic 4
Warcraft 3
Need For Speed Undercover
GTA San Andreas
Doom 3
Heroes of Might and Magic 5
King Bounty
Race Driver GRID

all of them were fantastic games! I am sure i would have missed something because i have a long history from my college days. Waiting for Diablo 3 and new Starcraft, which will return me to the PC.

Now most of my gaming is in Wii

Metroid Prime 3: Corruption
Punch Out
Wii Sports Resort
EA Sports Active (technically not a game)
Resident Evil 4

My 4 year old daughter adores Mario Kart and is learning it pretty well too

PS3 coming soon. I will give xbox a miss.

People here don't like Moha and COD series. when i used to go to hometown on holidays, we had a blast in a friends gaming parlor, games were played for Momos and beer.

raj_5004 · 13th September 2009, 13:21

the recent games i am playing are:

1) dead space : very very scary & hair raising, best avoided by heart patients. got the best graphics i have seen till date.
2) soldiers of fortune - payback : good graphics & lots of action, feels very realistic.
3) call of juarez - bound in blood : not played much yet!
4) driver - parallel lines : great game for those who loves drving. has got a fantastic storyline.
5) Lost via domus : very interesting game, nice story & decent graphics.

Now i am waiting to play race driver grid & GTA 4.
