The Master™

I've been out of the gaming arena for a number of years..

But now I have a kick-bottom pc...

3.2Ghz AMD Processor
512Mb RAM
ATI Radeon 9800 128Mb Graphics Card
And more than enough HDD space (200Gb)

I need some good games to play on it... Love RPG's (finished all the Baldurs Gate/Icewind Dale ones and only just getting a chance to play NWN)

So, lay them suggestions on me!!!

I, Brian

Half-life 2?
Rome Total War
Max Payne 2

You're maybe pushing the specs for Doom 3.

kstr

Nah he would be fine, i have nearly the same machine and doom runs fine.

what about morrowind??? i hear that is a good game...

I would suggest you bump your rig up to 1024 mb of ram. Nowadays it really takes a full gig of ram to best run these games, and you should be able to get that for around $60-70 depending on weekly sales. And speaking of games, if you like first person shooters definitely check out Half Life 2 and any of the Battlefield series ..... and maybe check out Everquest 2.

i'll swap machines with you :P

mine is 3 years old, with 1.2 gh, 512 ram and a 64 mb geforce and I can run anything i have installed on it so far. just gotta sacirfice graphics for gameplay.

Try Deus Ex. its a mix of a shooter/rpg. its really good. Gothic is amazing and I hear gothic 2 is much better. Morrowind is great. I love stealing pillows. Age of wonder, homeworld and heros of might and magic III for RTS'.

As you can see, I love playing the older games. They are the best.

Rome: Total War.

The Total War seires is one of the best I have ever played for RTS. they are large scales battle always with very nice graphics, good stories and great game play.


And, oh, how I wish I could steal the blankets!

Ditto on RTW. That is quite likely one of the best RTS games out there - I've been playing it on LAN every night in three people deathmatch and it's absolutely brilliant fun.

Try it.

Check out Freedom Force, it's quite a quirky take on RPG's
Morrowind is class - most expansive RPG out there bar none - who needs linear story lines?

Also Diablo is pretty good as is Final Fantasy 7 (if you can ignore the constant...random...battles! :mad
