How much space do you have in your hard drive?

Get the fastest GHz and the most RAM and the best Graphics Card you can: you won't regret it.

 

[Sir Prince]

I am aware of that. Updates to be done (suggestions welcome): get: Radeon ATI x800xl, 2 gigs of ram - 256, sound card (maybe? suggestions? how to check?), harddrive?,
and I have 18.9 gigs of hard drive left out of 55.8 gigs.

Get what you'd think you require. I have M&B for all my medieval killing needs. I have homeworld 2 for all my space combat needs. And I have tribes for all my multiplayer needs.

 

[Sir Prince]

Gamespot has sevearl tribes, wich one? Homeworld is also an online game it says.... true? (as I desperately wanna shoot up some space ships)

Me: sleek vessel with good shielding, fast, sleek but deadly weapons, easiely controlled, some purple.

 

[Fluffy The Hamster]

Starsiege: Tribes

And yeah, HW2 can be played online. PDS (Point Defense Systems) however, make the game 2000000X BETTER!

 

[Sir Prince]

erm, is HW2 also a singleplayer? As I want to avoid mutiplayer for the time being. Starsiege: Tribes seems to be a wee bit old...

 

[Fluffy The Hamster]

Yes.

 

[Sir Prince]

Ok. Well, it's on my list. So, ANYONE ELSE? Goodnight people! Cya tomorrow! (and post here while I'm asleep)

 

[Fluffy The Hamster]

Do you want me to post pictures of HW2? When ya wake up,

 

[Sir Prince]

PM ME WITH LINKS TO PICS.
And I won't be asleep unitl 1-2am and awake until 12pm pacific.
But I have to get offline in 5 mins, and then play, oh, something, until my omm kicks me off the comp.

 

[Fluffy The Hamster]

As you wish.

 

[Sir Prince]

Now get me some donuts.

Also, to avoid clutter, please try not to post off-topic posts in here. I need to stop foruming, so, g'night!

 

[vague]

definately try rome total war, or medievil total war.

 

[Fluffy The Hamster]

Did you just join for the sake of this thread?

As for the total war series...I havn't tried it. I should, right?

 

[powerg8]

Rainbow 6

Call of Duty

and a new game called F.E.A.R there is a demo out

O' and an old game called Gangsters, 1 or 2

 

[Nairagorn]

As for the total war series...I havn't tried it. I should, right?

Yes. Do it. Now.

Medieval TW's very cool, even if the graphics are a little dated (not too badly tho). In some ways I think it's a much better game than Rome TW.

Rome TW by itself is ok, but it's the mods that make it fan-freakin-tastic. Graphics are great, and it helps to have a beefy computer and/or vid card.

Shogun TW (the first in the series) is ok, but doesn't have the replay value that Medieval or Rome has.

 

[Fluffy The Hamster]

I'll try rome.

oh yeah, and Call of Duty is a good game even if you never liked WW2.

 

[Sir Prince]

I should also mention: no gore. atleest no anymore than M&B, AOK, Diablo, etc. Or not much more. Well, blod, any guts and I'm outa there.
Ok, wil look the ones up. So, anymore?
