Default PC Games - 03-16-2006, 02:09 PM

Seems i've been buying one every week. Just picked up "NFS Most Wanted". D/loading the patch as i write this.

Saw "Brothers in Arms: Earned in Blood" at BB. Anyone play this game? Wanted to pick it up but wasn't sure about it. I want a good single player game (unlike BF2 which has no "offline" single player missions)

Some others i recently picked up:
BF2
COD2
MOH (had a bootlegged version)
Half Life (saw the original and had to have it for nostalgic reasons)

Want to get:
Fear
...and perhaps Brothers in Arms if you guys say it's worth it.


The world is my urinal

The first brothers in arms was shite, was marketed to be this game that was all about tactics, all you could do was fucking flank oOo: The enemies were meant to be able to counter your flanking, but it seemed they could only move in a very small area around where they were spawned. Seen plenty of enemeis "taking cover" and half of their bodies was still sticking out from behind the cover making for an easy kill.

I dloaded earned in blood, after 5 mins concluded it was the same shit and gleefully deleted it.

I bought fear, havn't really got into it, kinda freaky in some parts and my machine does fuck all but chug when im playing it. loney:

In fear i had it set to 1280x1024 with shadows off, xfsaa, still got chugging or some reason.

In bf2:

Maxed settings @ 1680x1050 biggrin:

In bf2 flying a plane at these setings is torture, usually ill be chuging along and the game will freeze up a bit then next thing is im looking at the ground while being 3 fet away from it. loney:
