    online fps?

    im new to PC gaming, and im wondering what games it has to offer. I own an xbox 360, and have enjoyed call of duty 4 online due to the unlockables and customisable weapons, and excellent gameplay.
    Can anyone recommend another online FPS for me to play. I know there are millions of them, and i have no idea which ones are good. UT3? CS:S?

    After buying my new PC im drained of cash, i only have £50, so i dont want to spend money on something that I dont like.

    As well as cod4, Battlefield 2 is still popular. Team Fortress 2 is great fun and it's on Steam.

    For more realistic shooters you could check out Armed Assault.

    Re: online fps?

    there always the old school games such as quake 2/3 and UT ect, in fact theres a few UT matches going on recently... just find the Unreal Tourny thread by me... it covers most of what is going to happen and what games are going to be used... mainly just Unreal tournament GOTY edition (available on steam) and things like that.

    obv if your after newer titles then things like COD4, CS and things like that...
    Post Counts and Other Rewards, Rules, Folding@Home, Fans: Push vs Pull vs Push-Pull, Corsair PSU OEMs.

    HL2 DM, Teamfortress, CS:S, BF2 and of course COD4 also on the PC.

    When I bought Half-Life 2 it came with a number of online games including the CS:S and HL2: DM

    Re: online fps?

    I vote for CS:S, its a fantastic game and even better if you play online with people you know.

    Just be warned that there will be a few decent players around and you may get totaly destroyed on your first few maps but you will pick it up quite quickly.

    Here are a few lesser-known shooters you might want to try:

    War Rock
    Combat Arms
    Rising Eagle - Futuristic Infantry Warfare (you'll need a fast broadband connection, 'coz it's a whopping 1.5GB download )
    Warmonger - Operation Downtown Destruction
    Beauty is in the eye of the beer-holder

    Re: online fps?

    What about some of the free ones?

    e.g. Alien Arena

    Look at wikipedia for a list of free multiplayer FPSs there are plenty and most are UT like with a decent standard of graphics to.

    Depends what your after I guess, if you want a solid coop shooter I'd recommend Rainbow 6 Lockdown or Rainbow 6 Vegas 1 or 2 all are well within budget.
