Crysis seems to be another game people are buying a lot.

intelfan · 03-16-2008, 12:19 AM

Call of Duty 4 rated the best gaming graphic for 2007 and so far 2008

could also try the PC version of bioshock, played that on the 360 and found it awsome and original for an FPS

All those suggestions are great, but what is your PC Specs you plan on upgrading too?

mercyman123 · 03-16-2008, 11:17 AM

Enoug to handle the newest games easily

HawMan · 03-17-2008, 11:22 AM

Crysis is ok, But im still in love with BF2 / Live for speed S2.

Bioshock, Crysis, Test Drive Unlimited, Witcher are some of them...

Seconded. Orange Box is pure Awesome.

If you like games with interation and real life situtation, i suggest Sims 2. Sims 2 is a 3d world where you control what your sims do. there is also many expention packs to add on. there is also sims 3 cooming out in 2009

**bigfellla** · 03-20-2008, 03:41 AM

Just finished Assassins Creed, very good.

Jack.Sparrow · 03-20-2008, 03:08 PM

Seconded, except I played it on a PS3 so I couldn't comment about the PC version.

**bigfellla** · 03-20-2008, 05:38 PM

the pc verion is better of course...

IMHO, you don't get a gaming pc and then play sims, just my opinion though....

i would still like to see those new specs though... curiosity kills the cat they say!

Putting the words "bleeding edge" and "specs" in the same post causes every member of the Hardware Team to... well... just look at bigfellla's avatar.

Sims 2 was a good step up in terms of capability AND graphics compared to the first one. Even my old Athlon64 3400+ and 6800GT OC would drop a few frames running it!
