Next game to play?

Aynjell · 03-24-09, 01:10 AM

I don't know what I want to play next. I've got a few games on my to do list, so I'll list them here. Looking for votes on each. I'll seriously follow the recommendation through to completion, providing it's on the below list:

Mass Effect
Far Cry
Far Cry 2
Crysis
Crysis: WARHEAD

I know this is obvious indecisiveness, but each time I jump into any of these games, I play for an hour and forget it for a week. I need to finish one of these so I feel complete, you know? I know they're all compelling and great and all, but they lack the addictiveness that other games have had for me.

So pick a game from here and why I should play it. Your opinions are awesome! thanks in advance!

Already bought it. But that's not on my list of must play right now. I understand it's a good game, but I have all these good games that have been neglected and need to be played. I am more looking for games on the list I made.

Mass Effect or Far Cry. Both great games

See, my problem is I reinstall windows so often. I'm almost intimately familiar with the call flow of getting windows activated over the phone. I've already trained myself... I should move to india for a job. O.o

Things have changed though, thanks to my 1TB Caviar black secondary drive, I can now throw my whole C:\Users folder on there and now every time I reinstall I lose nothing seemingly. My girlfriend can almost not tell when I reinstall.

So now I'm losing no progress in my games... and I suppose it's why I gave up on these great games. I quit far cry right after the monkeys, not so much because of the monkeys but I reinstalled and forgot to backup. In warhead, I'm at the point where you're still chasing the general in the nano suit... and mass effect I just hit that icy ass planet and I'm looking into that building on the mountain.

But I want to finish one of these 5 games. CLOSURE, guys!

FarCry was fun, FarCry 2 was not fun.

what he said

I would start with Crysis and/or Crysis Warhead first since they are pretty short and wouldn't require to heavy time investment on your part.

It's coming up 20 for me?!

I have a similar list of games. I was planning on beating crysis first, but as soon as I got to the "core" level it just got confusing and dumb, so I gave up and just play the first half of it over and over now.
I also have far cry 2, that is fun, different that what I am used to but will take a long time to beat. Im not really trying to beat it just have fun with it right now. I also have oblivion incoming, that will suck up a good portion of my time as well.

I say make your goal to beat the first half of crysis, then maybe up the difficutly and beat it again.

I recommend far cry 1. Never got into Mass Effect... maybe I didn't give it enough time.

I'm having the same issue with Mass Effect myself. I'm actually pursuing the game and it's just... where does it get fun? I can't seem to come up with a real interest in it.

I'm hoping for a new Battlefield. Battlefield 3 maybe?

And that's when the Pitt came out. No longer need help.

Gotta figure out how to acquire the pitt.

chevro1et · 03-25-09, 07:37 PM

FarCry 1 w. 1.4 patch (hdr+aa looks fantastic) and the Matto3 and matto4 mods afterwards. The matto mods together pretty much make up another whole game using Jack Carver and the original Crytek engine. New weapons, new environments, and the funniest voice acting ever.
