Title: REPUBLIC OF PC GAMERS: What did I miss in the last, uh, 7 years?
Post by: GilloD on August 11, 2009, 10:19:26 PM
I got a sweet new beast of a laptop. Time to pick up on 6 years of missed PC Gaming! Here's my current wishlist, what'd I miss?

Company of Heroes
Left4Dead
Stalker
The Witcher


WHAT ELSE WHAT ELSE. Are any of those games total suck town? I wanna pick up Fallout 3 on PC, I sold the 360 version before the expansions. I'm just gonna wait for the GOTY ed.

Cave Story
La Mulana
Spelunky
I Wanna Be The Guy

The Ys games are great if you like ARPGs, and have cash to burn to import (they have full translations, well all except Origin).

It's okay, but really shallow, like a mash-up of a bare-bones Diablo clone and a bare-bones city-builder.

Download the RE5 and SFIV benchmarks to see what they've could have looked like if you didnt play them on consoles first.

RE5 was zomg on 360, no?

RE5 sucked but hopefully modders will be able to remove all the shitty stuff about it. like Sheva. or the controls


or the entire last third of the game.
