coolcat50 0 Report post Posted May 27, 2008 Well, recently I had my 8th grade graduation and I got $70 as a present. Well, I am wanting to get a game with my money. Only problem is I can't decide what to get. I am thinking of buying Call of Duty 4:Modern Warfare for PC, but I am not sure if I can run it. I also am thinking of buying Warhammer 40k:Dawn of War, which I know I can run. Then there are different Nintendo Wii game I want such as Mario Kart Wii, and Wii Fit. I can't decide out of all these games. So I need some recommendations for games for me to get. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rayzoredge 2 Report post Posted May 27, 2008 Call of Duty 4 is pretty outstanding and runs rather well for a next-gen game. I run it at 1400x900 with nothing else on and it still looks spectacular on my 3.2GHz P4, 2GB DDR2 SRAM, and ATI Mobility Radeon 256MB X600 laptop. (The X600 is considered a mid-range video chipset.) I think that it's a great buy and you won't be disappointed with that choice, unless you have really high standards for a game. (The only cons I found with the game dealt with some realism issues and the fact that the campaign, however immersive and awesome, is too short.)I can't say anything about Warhammer 40K as I have not played it.You also can't go wrong with a Wii game, although good luck on finding Wii Fit with the board. (Apparently it's a hot commodity that sold out quick on release.) Mario Kart Wii seems like a clear winner, although I haven't gotten it. You can also go with some safe Wii bets like Super Paper Mario and Zelda: Twilight Princess. One game I really, really thought was awesome was Rayman: Raving Rabbids. That game has to be one of the few games I've had the most fun with in a long time, and playing with friends is even better. (If you're looking for a game with a story though, the game disappoints, but the fun mini-games do more than make up for that deficiency.) Rayman: Raving Rabbids 2 was okay compared to its predecessor, but adds some features and still is rather entertaining.You could also save your money...

coolcat50 0 Report post Posted May 27, 2008 Twilight Princess was one of the first games I bought since I am a fan on the Legend of Zelda series. I really want CoD4, the only thing is the fact my computer has a Intel Pentium 1.46 GHz Processor, 1gb RAM, Windows XP SP2, with a Intel video chipset. It has all the features needed to play CoD4, but I have heard that my chipset won't run it. I think it is a Mobile Intel 965. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

coolcat50 0 Report post Posted May 27, 2008 I have tried that website, and its results are nonsense. Most games it says I fail because of my video card, despite my video card having the correct features. I have decided to get Warhammer 40k, just cause I want an RTS game. Plus I played the demo and it is fun. It also is only $30. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ivantoar 0 Report post Posted June 19, 2008 If you're really huge FPS fan, go for Call of Duty 4. Me myself not buy it yet, but my brother does, so I've tried play it. Awesome graphics, realistic gameplay, and the most thing, AWESOME multiplayer. When I try to play multiplayer twice, I feel it so diffrent from Counter-Strike (you've tried CS, eh?). It's a lot better Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Accure 0 Report post Posted July 25, 2008 Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare. It's nothing compared to any other FPS shooter games. It's a revolution for the FPS games and you can have hunderds of hours of fun with it.. If you aren't that much of a first-person-shooter fan, go for Super Smash Bros Brawl, or Zelda..

iGuest 3 Report post Posted August 19, 2008 Replying to ivantoarUmmm, no. Please try to play CS:S again, because Call of Duty sucks after a while. Counterstrike has always been a true FPSers game. Thanks for taking my adivce.-reply by Glitechnia Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
