FPS: Quake III, Unreal Tournament (with mods), Half-life (with mods - specifically Team fortress classic and Counter-strike) & Tribes 2 when it comes out..Quote:

Hi.
I strongly suggest you should buy Unreal Tournament (The best game ever) and/or Half Life. Also, if you're interested in strategy, Red Alert 2 is a great game!
There's a new FPS that just came out called Rune. It's built around a modified U.T. engine and has very good graphics.
I just finished playing it and can give it the thumbs up.
There's a demo out if you want to check it out. If you do a search it should be pretty easy to find.
Went over to Fry's Electronics.. Rune is out.. think it was 45.00
An excellent FPS/RPG hybrid is Dues Ex. Can't get much better unless you starting digging back to older Warren Specter games like System Shock 2 or Thief.
If you want a really good FPS, get Rune.
For RPG, I would say Balder's Gate II. BG's are really great. They are far superior to Diablo II in my opinion.

You can try the Rune Demo and see what it's like. It's produced by Human Head Studios.Quote:

Is Rune really a FPS? I know its based on the engine for UT which is a FPS.
First-Person-Shooter.
Rune is 3rd person I believe, and you use hand to hand combat weapons (no guns) so you don't really shoot.
Rune is more of a 3PH, 3rd person hand-to-hand.
I have no idea what my point is.

Mmm...omnipotence, gotta get me some of that!
In fact, you can play it the way you want. Usually, 3rd person, but you can zoom in so it become a FPS. The only problem is you don't see your weapon in that position.Quote:

MDK2 is a pretty good game--kinda old by today's standards. Fab levels etc., Action, Comedy, Multiple characters, enjoy the third person goodness today!

Hello
Pick up a copy of Tribes for $10!!!.....and play it until Tribes 2 comes out.
Try Crimson Skies. Since the 1.02 patch, it runs great. More an action game than a flight sim, but with a great storyline and incredible graphics. It's great fun.
