what are some PC exclusives you would recommend? i looked at several review sites and most of the top exclusives seem to be RTS or turn based games....i cant get into those games.

i cant believe hwo much better games look on the PC. 4 year old ME 1 looks better then most of todays games. and origins looks like a completely different game

i thought the mouse and kb would be tough to use, but i am really enjoying it. they work great for these games

anyone else catch the gametrailers.com top games of 2011? what a joke

Game of the Year - Uncharted 3
Best PS3 Game - Uncharted 3
Best Console Exclusive - Uncharted 3
Best Single Player Campaign - Uncharted 3
Best Multiplayer Game - Modern Warfare 3
Best First-Person Shooter - Modern Warfare 3


i havent played UC3 yet but.... did it really deserve to sweep almost every major category?

cant really argue against it. other than goty, but even that is subjective. someone over there is a fanboy

[CrimsonGhost56]

i only listed some of the categories. theres a bunch more over at their website. i just found it kind of odd UC3 won so many awards. like i said i havent played it yet but from the reception it got here it seemed to be somewhat underwhelming.

I'm not sure why you're a fanboy if you picked UC3 as GOTY

[JBregz]

UC3 was a damn good game.

I'm going to go play Skyrim for an 30 minutes while you guys argue.

Er, I mean 3 or 4 hours

playing only 30 minutes of skyrim doesn't exist.

Unless it freezes on you :fad:

Almost have Mercenaries 2 beat.

Down to the last couple of missions with the Allied Nations and China to complete.

No real reason to replay other than cleaning up the HVT trophies (get them all AND/OR keeping them alive when you get them) and maybe seeing what the other two mercs have to say during the game.

I played as Mattias this go-round so the speedier health recovery is a plus.

Alright about to buy either Final Fantasy 8 or Final Fantasy 9. I remember playing through 8 as a young lad back when it spanned across 4 discs. And I've never played 9 before. Which one would you homies recommend?

I don't play a whole lot of PC, but for some lesser known titles, I would say to give the S.T.A.L.K.E.R. series a try the next time it goes on sale on Steam. Shadow of Chernobyl and Call of Pripyat are supposed to be good.

Team Fortress 2 is one that you should try, and it's free.

Go with IX.

You don't want to suffer through an Emo story using a Cloud also-ran.

I heard they shut the S.T.A.L.K.E.R. servers down...

not for picking it as goty. but because they picked it for all those categories. i have not played it yet but i plan too when i have time and find it cheaper
