a few great shooters to try

Post by Blorx » Tue Sep 18, 2007 6:47 pm

I need people I sorta know to play against so, here are the games:

Enemy Territory: Quake Wars
Return to Castle Wolfenstein: Enemy Territory
America's Army
War Rock

post a message here if you're interested in playing...I know all but War Rock are/will be for Mac...just need people to play against and on the ones that make you pay for servers, don't worry, there are enough empty servers to make up for it ;)

I've been trying Quake Wars demo recently, it seems like the first actual PC game to come out in a while (that's not a console port).

I think it's a nice shooter but it needs a nice comp if you wanna run it with good graphics and a lot of people. I usually end up having the graphics set to normal or something. I'm probably gonna end up buying it, though. It really is fun, fast-paced and I'm an awesome sniper.

Ah! Two Worlds is pretty cool, too. I'm in the process of deciding whether to buy it or not, but then again, it had a simultaneous 360/PC release.

As far as I know Penumbra: Overture can't be catogorised as a PC game based upon a console port.

Quake Wars is pretty cool. I agree with David that it's one of the few PC-exclusive games to come out in a while. I guess the next one will be Crysis.

BioShock is freakin' amazing. I also think it's pretty impressive that I can say that even though the telltale signs of being a console port are there in 1.0 (poor mouse control, lack of keyboard mapping, bugginess, etc.). It's unfortunate, since Irrational used to make some kickass PC-exclusives. Hopefully they'll fix those major gripes in a patch.

You honestly don't know how to find it yourself?

I would play Enemy Territory, but as I might have said before,
Quake 3 engine games doesn't, never have, and probably never will,
work online. I have been trying to figure this out my whole life.
No one knows why the master server doesn't respond to me.
