| tripenfall said: I am somebody who's been a console gamer for 30 years, I've never owned a gaming PC before. When I was young I owned all Sega, Sony and Nintendo consoles but since the N64 I've only been gaming on Nintendo. My 64, GC, Wii and Wii U collections are quite extensive but I missed a lot of games that never made it to Nintendo consoles. This week, after getting VERY fed up of the lack of 3rd party support for Wii U I went and bought a high spec Alienware Gaming PC. This made more sense to me than buying a PS4 or XBone. Now I need some advice on what to get stuck into. Can anyone recommend some titles and even franchises to get? For example, if I was to get The Witcher would it be worth starting at # 1 or just going straight to # 3? What are some of your favourite games? Friends of mine keep talking up Just Cause, Bioshock, Fallout, Far Cry to name a few. Anything from the last 20 years is on the menu, I'm not worried about top end graphics - just great games. |
First off, I'm just gonna say you made a mistake going with Alienware. Have fun with Dell's customer support if you ever have any issues ever. I'd highly recommend you build it yourself in the future. Second, get portal, portal 2, and Half life 2. You're not a pc gamer until you've played those games lol. Far Cry 3 is always a good choice for a game. About the witcher. I really didn't like it very much. I thought the controls were too cointer intuitive, and I wanted its RPG elements to be better. Also, get Skyrim, and mod the Hell out of it. Bioshock is one of the best games ever made (get one, not 2 or infinite).
