A question about : ohh ohhh first thread! aka what games do you play?

well a whole new board to play on!

so i online game a bit and have learnt that the free ones are as good as a lot of the paid ones.

which games would you recommend to a newbie online gamer?

I'd chose perfect world, as its easy to play and freeeeeeeee!

Best answers:

• I'm more of a console gamer, but when I get on the PC it's normally RuneScape, Diablo2/3 and Minecraft.
  Playing though the DeathSpank series on the PS3 at the moment
• I'm also a console user and my favorite types of game tend to be Halo, Asassins Creed, Gears of War etc. Not too sure about my future with the Halo franchise now the Xbox One has been announced. We'll see what happens when I've seperated the fact from the fiction!
• RFB, look up "I'm In Love With Halo" on Youtube
  I like RPG-style games (I LARP, so I would really ) and interesting games like Ico. Tend to be a little retro in my tastes sometimes - the original Silent Hill and 2, Final Fantasy VII, etc.
  HBS x
• Battlefield: Bad Company 2 is the game for me, I can't stop playing the damn thing!!
• Online it's Uncharted 3 for me (and The Last Of Us shortly!).
  Got bored of COD with too many idiots blaring music, and Battlefield 3 lacked a certain fun factor for me though it's technically excellent.
  LBP for the light fun, and Portal 2 for something different.
  Single player its Fallout, BioShock, Uncharted, Civ IV (PC obviously).
• PC:
  Used to play WoW but that game has gone downhill (or changed beyond recognition for me over the years) so i give that up.
  Been playing LoL lately, tried to get some friends in to it but all of them are nowhere near patient enough to learn the game, it's got a very steep learning curve.
  Other stuff include BF2:BC which I'm terrible at, Skyrim (but using a 360 controller) which was fun while it lasted, but trying out different playstyles' and repeating the same stuff over and over on multiple characters ground me down a bit. Trackmania 2 is a good laugh, played the open Beta, F1 2010 (cause i enjoyed that when i had a 360).
  Console:
  Mostly play round at my friends, so Halo 2 for nostalgia reasons (and also being my favorite game of all time), guitar hero/rock band games just as a laugh, F1 All-stars, Left4Dead 2 with 2 consoles, back to back TV's in Versus mode.
  I honestly don't game much anymore, but i do keep up with latest releases etc, somewhat and mess around on some things sometimes.
• Minecraft and Xcom: Enemy Unknown for me, neither online, and both on the 360.
• call of duty Black ops 2, its ok if you have a few mates to party up with on steam but offern nothing new from black ops same with moderwarefare. CODBO 2 zombies is good aswell.
  planetside 2 is a free to play MMO completely insane game that can keep you occupied for hours theres loads to get in and play with from land tanks to aircraft, engineer, infiltrator (sniper),medic etc there hundreds of people in one server to fight against and is moderated all the time by SOE Devs always being updated and hotfixed with something new and better. your system will need to modern to play it though and friday night ops in (Paciffic time) you get to team up with the game developers and play alongside them you have three factions to choose from aswell.
  an old game i used to play is jointoperations typhoon rising, and expansion pack JOTR escallations theres also ICE MOD that fun aswell and picked up from amazon for Ј3 or 4 (you will need a new one for the product key)
  darksiders is another beafy game for the PC
  crysis, crysis2.
  resident evil series get the heart going too.
• Fancy new board! Team Fortress 2 is a good one and free through steam
• I'm a gamer but don't tend to play online games - I came to the console game fairly late (having dabbled with handheld for a while).
  Bought a PS2 in 09 (sold in 10 as didn't use it) bought another PS2 in sept 12 and my PS3 in Nov 12 (as I wrongly assumed GTA Vs release date wouldn't change!). The only games I tend to play is the gta franchise
• On multiple fronts as always.
  Xbox 360 - Rocksmith is currently trying to teach me how to play guitar.
  PC - Starcraft 2, was playing WoW for years but gave it up last year when the server population got to the level where it was essentially unplayable.
  PS3 - Assassins Creed: Brotherhood. Managed to get what I thought was Assassins Creed 2 & said game (the first two in a trilogy) for Ј2 each in HMV as sleeveless pre-owned. Turned out Brotherhood was actually Revelations (the third in the trilogy), never mind, picked up Brotherhood today! (And can't complain when Revelations contained Assassins Creed 1!)
• World of Tanks for me - really into it.
• Persona4 golden on the vita at the moment that's about it
  Only really play on it at work at the moment tho
  Like the look of Kerbal space program on the pc when I played it at my brothers tho
• Mass Effect, Dragon Age, Bioshock
• A couple of free games to look for are
  MP F.EA.R https://www.fearcombat.org/
  A good but old free SP game is Hidden and Dangerous https://www.hidden-and-dangerous.net/deluxe/download.php
• Im a PC biased gamer.
  LoL
  Witcher series
  Dragonage Series
  Elder Scrolls Series
  Tomb raider series
  DMC series (earlier ones on PS)
  Baldurs Gate
  NWN
  Dungeon Keeper
  Minecraft
  And quite a few others i haven't played in years.
• I'm not a console gamer, I leave that for my boyfriend, but give me Hay Day on my iPad and I'm gone for hours.
  I really love any type of farming game - the old school Alice Greenfingers, and anything where I have to fulfil orders.
  I also like The Sims, the first one being my favourite!
