Do we have any gamers around here that play other titles - as well as FS?

Name your titles if you do!!

Im currently into stuff like:

Battlefield 2
Half Life 2

As a heavy gamer, I just like to know what people are playing!!!

I used to play a lot of games but nothing has caught my eye for a long time.

I used to be well into Ghost Recon but have been unable to find a game like it (I prefer open space maps as opposed to towns/cities like most games seem to have)

Any suggestions welcomed.

Medieval 2 is phenominal!!!

Gfx are excellent.
Gameplay has imporved on both the campaign and battle maps.

Also, lots of battle sequence bugs have been fixed!
Ill post some screenies later if you like... although, im sure you can find them on the net!

Gears of War is the best looking game I have seen in a long long time!!
I was amazed when I saw that on one of them Samsung HD t.v's...

If you like your C&C, some games I recommend are:
Act of War
Company of Heroes

Both brilliant...

Charlie Bravo... Have you tried Battlefield 2? Lots of Maps like the original Ghost recon on Xbox --> Both City Based, and "Wilderness"...

A very very emmersive game!! Multiplayer based, with Squad Work, Commanders, Helicopters, Jets, Tanks... Excellent game! Looks good too when you bang up the settings!!

Doom 3...

Pure Genius!

Have you played F.E.A.R? I know Doom was scary in places, put F.E.A.R will have you literally shaking with... well... fear! Especially when you make yourself play it at 1am, with all the lights off!! :k:
:roll:

Imagine that film: "The Ring", mixed with Doom 3/Max Payne...

Thats F.E.A.R!!! Seriously recommended!



Which Reminds me... anybody ever play the Max Payne series?

I've read reviews of BF2 but it's not for me. I bought BF Vietnam when that came out and found it boring.

The original Ghost Recon was good because you had tasks set on each level to which you could go about doing them in any order and at any speed. You could hide in bushes and plan your next move unlike many games that require you to run and shoot through each map/level.
