Can anyone make some good recommendations on online PC games? I'm going to start staying home on the weekends for a few months & save up some money for a major purchase and I need something to occupy my time. I have a powerful PC with high speed internet. Don't have an xbox, ps3 or anything like that & don't plan on buying one. I want something new and fresh, not something like world of warcraft. Thx
I take it that you don't want to play an MMO then? The two I play are City of Heroes and EVE Online. CoH is really fun, easy to pick up, and the character customizer is awesome. It's easy to create a character that is completely unique. You can get a free trial on mmorpg.com EVE Online is a hardcore sci-fi space game. You need to be pretty dedicated to have fun in it. Which is why I'll probably drop it soon. But you can also get a free trial on mmorpg.com Some free browser-based strategy games are Oil Empires and Strategy Arena Online. Like I said, they are free, but if you want to 'donate' you can get extra perks in each. I'm not a FPS fan, so I cant recommend anything there, but I'm sure someone will chime in.
Team Fortress 2 Company of Heroes World in Conflict Age of Empires 3 / expansions Call of duty 4 Battlefield 2 Those are what I play. Hit me up on xfire if you ever want to play. We have a teamspeak up and running.
i want to play monopoly online. it used to be on games.com but they sold the rights to EA or something...
At home? For months? High speed internet? Powerful computer? World of Warcraft buy a headset and watch the days melt away.
How about Civilization 4. Great addictive game with online multiplayer. Yeah Ziggy, I tried to log on to play online, and I had to download the new patch. But with the new patch installed, I can't run the game anymore. I think my comp. has a virus.
Team Fortress 2 has me addicted. Look for "THE ORANGE BOX" as the name of the game. It includes ALL of the Half-Life 2 games, Portal (which is fun), and Team Fortress 2. <object width="425" height="355"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/dgJBZnSnVpE"></param><param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/dgJBZnSnVpE" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="425" height="355"></embed></object> <object width="425" height="355"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/ynrF2es08ds"></param><param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/ynrF2es08ds" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="425" height="355"></embed></object> <object width="425" height="355"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/TluRVBhmf8w"></param><param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/TluRVBhmf8w" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="425" height="355"></embed></object>
