    Default Game recommendations / What games have you played so far?

    I want some game recommendations. Old or new, I don't mind. What games have you played or still playing?

    What I have played so far:

    Metro Last Light, Wolfenstein: The New Order, Dishonored, Metal Gear, Splinter Cell series, Battlefield series, Mirror's Edge, Spec Ops: The Line, Just Cause 2... Pretty sure I played more.

    Preferably anything similar to the games I mentioned above but I don't mind trying different ones.

    ANYTHING but The Sims, Minecraft, Skyrim, League etc.. No matter how much I try to play them, I just can't..

    So you clearly like FPS games. Come play PlanetSide with us. Also in that thread, Payday is fun for a while. Team fortress 2 is entertaining. My old school favorite FPS is Day of Defeat and Day of Defeat Source. I feel like BioShock would be to much story line for you but that is one of the best series of all time IMO as well as Mass Effect.

    If i listed all the games I have played it would be cumbersome reading. So I will spare you.

    Warframe is a great game. It has a lot of longevity due to it's constant updates. And a lot on the older side, my favorite game for the Gamecube, Phantasy Star Online Episodes I and II plus. Fantastic Rogue-like set in the future when "mankind" had to find a new planet to live on.

    I agree with the Bioshock suggestion. You can even skip right to the third one and play that, it's super good on it's own.
    What about games like Fallout 3 and Fallout New Vegas? Made by the same people who did Skyrim, but it's an FPS RPG set after a nuclear holocaust. Great games, lots of story and exploring.

    Hmm, well;
    (I noticed how you said not skyrim, but also have mirrors edge (not an fps really). But as you focus on fps's so shall I
    The most played games of mine from the last month;
    Arma 3; is a huge game if your pc can handle it, with a lot of mods & different modes, but you will really want a group of people to play with in it
    PayDay 2; Play it from time to time, can get quite grindy though
    Sir, Your Are Being Hunted - its just a bit different, with the new steam refund policy you can try it out (also think it might have a demo)
    The Long Dark - Survival game in first person, no zombies or stuff just a very pissed off world
    Rust - its rust

    Games away from fps but are good & worth a look

    Kerbal Space Program - send little green men in to space
    FTL : Faster than Light - worth picking up if you see it cheap
    GTA V - screw online mode too many hackers, the story is good though and you can mod it nicely
    Prision Architect - Build & manage your own prision - still in alpha though
    Divinity Original Sin - a good rpg
    Path of Exile - a good old styled RPG
    The Witcher 3 - the latest good rpg (1 & 2 are worth playing too)

    Then as I like them space games are currently;
    Elite Dangerous (out now & working towards being good)
    Star Citizen - dont bother putting much money in to it but the various modules show what it would be like.

    I would generally say try demo's of games where you can & just try lots of different types, I used to hate FPS's myself now I quite like them

    Borderlands 1 and 2 are some of my favorite games of all time. Not only is it a good FPS, it also has a decent story and lovable characters. It's a lot of fun, and the GOTY editions are relatively cheap.

    Dirty Bomb is probably closest to TF2 that is less "cartoonish". It is a pretty fun game, and as it is f2p there isn't much of a risk in getting it, and trying it out for a while.

    If it's on sale, I recommend Remember Me. Felt alot like mirrors edge but not. Not sure it's worth full price but if it's on 50%+ sale it's worth it.

    Super Monday Night Combat was a humorous distraction for a while, if it's still live you could try that one, since it's free.

    I installed both, Warframe and PS2. I just need a little bit help with both games. For Warframe, I still can't choose a character as they all have great abilities.. same with PS2, Im not sure which empire to go with, they didn't give enough details about them ;(
    Tried Payday before and I didn't like that much, probably because I had better options.
    Everyone talks about BioShock, it's an interesting game.. Im gonna give it a go. Speaking of Mass effect, I have ME2 but I stopped playing it because I dont know what to do, the fact that I have to choose missions myself confuse me a lot. I will get back to it someday.

    I have fallout 3. Im not exaggerating but I actually reinstalled it 5 times in just one month. I never NEVER seen a game so complicated like Fallout 3. The beginning was okay but then things got so complicated. Its when I had to leave Megaton / The town for 'god knows what' and I could barely kill anyone, I didn't even know where im supposed to go. Might play it again........one day, lol

    Mirror's Edge is a unique game, I can't wait for the new one!<3

    If my PC can handle Bf4 then it will surely handle Arma 3, haha. There was a free trial on steam few months ago so I got to try it. I definitely agree with you, to enjoy Arma 3 I will need a group. As for Payday2, I didn't enjoy it that much.

    When you said "Sir, your being hunted" I was like Im hunted? what? What on earth are you talking about? loooool. It doesn't have a demo but it looks interesting. I will try it, same with the Long Dark. I'm not sure about Kerbal, FTL, Divinity Original Sin, but I might give Path of Exile a shot. And Im already considering GTA V and The Witcher 3.
    Umm, what do you mean by "out now and working towards being good" ?

    Borderlands 2 looks more attracting, I will probably get this one first.

    I have Ghost Recon, played it last night for a bit. Im pretty noob in this game, haha. Loved all Dirty Bomb vids , Im already installing! Already have Grid 2.
    I got Sniper Elite 2 for free, this game is so amazing! Im still trying to get used to the Multiplayer, its addicting. If you have SE2 then let's play sometime :) I want to get Sniper Elite 3 but it doesn't look good :/

    My friend has The Witcher, so I will check it out. Hmm, I don't know about War Thunder but I will keep it in mind.

    I wanted to get this game looooong time ago but the reviews were kinda disappointing, now that Im looking for games to play I will consider it. Thanks for the advice ^
