| mrstickball said: Anyone care to put up a list of major, and minor ones this year? My dad was asking me about this earlier - if there were any post-WW2 ones coming out that weren't Gears of War 2. And yes, I crap you not, my 60 year old dad was the one asking me this. He's looking for reality-based ones, and not sci-fi (so primarily COD4 type, and preferably based on actual conflicts like 'nam and the Iraq war). |
Thats a hard one really, why not put him onto some older but good titles as well? Look to the past as well as the future. My dad still plays FPS games at the age of 67 so I win!
On a side note, he might enjoy games like Jagged Alliance 2 as its an awesome game with brilliant mechanics and gameply. You should also check out the back catalogue of compatible games from the original Xbox as well.
Have you tried him on Halo? It seems like quite an entry level game it'll make him feel good without handing him his ass on the easier difficulty levels. Yea I know its Sci-fi and all, but hey gotta broaden his horizens now.
There are a few realistic/difficult games on the PC that play really well such as Delta force and Viet Cong that deal with real conflicts. I think you'll have more luck there if he can use the PC controls?
Tease.
