Recommend me recent-ish PC games!

[WhiteBeastofWotan]

By recentish I mean games from the last few years, but probably not ones that have come out in the last 6-12 months. I recently came into posession of a new computer thats pretty decent, but not quite top of the line. I'm gonna get Medieval Total War 2 and Company of Heroes. Any other PC games, especially RTS, come out in the last few years that are worth gettin'? I looked at Supreme Commander, but I'm not sure if my compy could handle that.

Star Wars Lego. Cutest game evah.

 

[WhiteBeastofWotan]

oh fuck that.

 

[WhiteBeastofWotan]

That does, however, remind me. For those in the know, have any good Star Wars games come out for PC in the last decade?

You've probably played it but KOTOR I and II

"Knights of The Old Republic"

 

[Anvil]

Yes, KOTOR I & II
Company of Heros
Black & White 2
Age Of Empires III

...That's all I can think of for now.

Just ebay a copy of Total Annihilation and you are pretty much done with RTS games.

If you like platformers, I give Psychonauts my highest recommendation.

If you like 4X strategy games, Galactic Civilizations II is the best thing since MOO 2

Painkiller was a pretty goddamn cool FPS that went under a lot of people's radars

Hmmmmm..........

I don't know! But do you know of any like, forensic/investigative-type games?

Not sure exactly what you mean by that but look into the game Indigo Prophecy (XBOX, PS2, PC)

Ahhhhh Fahrenheit. I had that game at one time but I accidentally deleted it.

Something like that, yea. Do you know of any more like that? I was playing this flash game earlier where you had to interview people and find clues to solve a murder case. I actually had fun playing it but it was too short and too easy.

 

[AsModEe]

warhammer dawn of war with expansion packs

I'm not 100% sure if you'll dig this, and it is weird as hell, but free to play so no risk to you:

Die Anstalt

 

[Cat5Messiah]

That is odd........fucking hilarious though.

 

[Lunar Still]

MTW 2 looks so fucking sexy. I can't get it though, because it requires a computer that's practically still in development to run it. (exaggeration, of course, nerds please stfu)

A game I'm playing through again is Call of Cthulhu: Dark Corners of the Earth. Awesome first-person survival horror, and it feels like you're right in the middle of Innsmouth. Creepy.

 

[Cat5Messiah]

I'm installing The Longest Journey and Dreamfall right now.

Yay for Steam!

 

[JBroll]

Diablo, motherfucker.

[Cat5Messiah]

Gaaaaaaaaaaaay!

FRESH MEAT!

 

[Liverslapper]

team fortress is fun for online stuff, bioshock? UT III when it comes out very soon...depends on what type of genre you like to play. I could name a bunch.

 

[Cat5Messiah]

Slap my liver!
