I haven't played PC games for a long time, been playing on the ps2, and was wondering if anyone had any reccomendations of PC games. I like all kind of games, I enjoy them all, although the racing ones get a bit boring at times.

What time frame are we talking?
Recent or oldish?
Bio Shock will get some mentions
Oblivion was good
Lost planet got a lot of hype dunno what happend aftwards tho
Baldurs Gate is a classic and must be played by everyone - old but v v good
Just Cause - bit like gta again good
Permanently confused
I don't really mind the range as long as its fun
Can we assume that your PC will be able to handle any game mentioned? Other than the ones mentioned above maybe something from the Battlefield series if you like playing online, TBH everyone has favourites that others find boring. Your best bet may be to download some demos from Steam or somewhere else and see what you like.
Just download a ten day demo of World of Warcraft and watch your life drain away!...speaking of which...
How long has it been since you played pc games and what spec is your system?![]()
If you never played Half Life 2 then I'd recommend getting The Orange Box which is released on 10th October. In it you get Half-Life 2, HL2:Episode 1, HL2: Episode 2, Portal & Team Fortress 2. That's a lot of game time for what is usually the price of 1 game.
As other people have mentioned, check you meet the pc requirements though.
An oldie (but a Goodie) is Far Cry, has kept my 9 & 6 Year old nephews enthralled for 3 years now![]()
if you like RTS, starcraft is the best game ever
or else you can get the new RTS games (e.g. C&C TW, etc)
far cry is good ive just started playing it, bot god is it hard.
