PC game ideas?

Hi guys,

I have just bought myself a new laptop for gaming & music production as my existing one was having the processor spiked to 99%. This is the pup: http://www.very.co.uk/samsung-np700g7c-s02uk-intelre...

I am just after some recommendations of some good PC games to play? I am definitely getting Age of Empires 3 & Guild Wars 2 but looking for some other games that are PC exclusive and will wow me!

have you tried redalert command & conquer ? boss pc game

Personally for that sort of money i would have bought a macbook pro,but then again i guess if its for gaming then you are restricted for certain games on a Mac.

I played them many moons ago when Red Alert was first out as well as Generals I think it was. Will have to have a look at the latest ones!

T2D.... I would have gone for a Mac but the software I use for the music production is on Windows only, I would have had to install a Windows partition on the Mac to run it which kind of defeats the point then haha I would have liked a Macbook though but ah well, I had to go with what was most useful to me.

Is that Samplitude then?

oh wait, Sonar is Windows only, isn't it?

Knew there had to be a certain reason Jaxx so i understand.

Looks like a very powerful laptop though Jaxxy Boy

Nah it's FL Studio!

I was tempted to swap to Logic or Reason, but I know a lot of FL now and I'm not really ready to make the move to something else yet.... maybe next year

I can't believe this has had 138 views and only one response with a game idea! Is it because everyone just plays BF3?

I'm watching because I'd like a game for my laptop but it's not as powerful as Jaxx's beauty


If I had the money I'd buy that laptop and get back into PC gaming

If you decide you'd like to change, have a look at Reaper, it's pretty good

FC3

Some game ideas :

Borderlands 2
Max Payne 3
Portal 2
Battlefield 3

Yeah, just install Steam! Soon, you'll have loads of games you'll never get around to playing!

But, fwiw: Skyrim is probably the only game you need to install!



Tropico 4 currently £4.99 special Steam edition

Chivalry: Medieval Warfare is £12.72 on Steam (meant to be good laugh if you're playing with mates)

The messiah Spook returns...........You been to Lapland or what

Wish I had. Sounds expensive though.

Steam sale atm has plenty of games- final 25 now but most are worth getting if you dont own them already.

Have you tried Wolfenstein Enemy Territory? It's free and stand-alone, has great action, lots of maps and is played on line against other players and/or bots. There is also a large thriving community of fellow players, server runners and map writers. WET will run on legacy versions of Windows. For Vista and W7 you will need to run it in administrator mode.

You can get a full copy HERE.

Thanks for all the ideas guys, I will give some of them a try. So far I have just installed Guild Wars 2 and it has sucked me in well and truly. It looks absolutely gorgeous, I have everything running at the highest spec and draw scale to the highest and it's still pushing 60FPS. I can't believe how nice it looks, the water alone is just outstanding lol.

Definitely going to lose a lot of time to this game, will be on it all this weekend that's for sure!!
