<div class="IPBDescription">what should i get for my new compu?</div> well i'll be putting together my new pute pute, and it's gonna be a friggin champ, for the most part.. but since i was on a POS computer for so long, i sorta fell out of touch with my whole release-date-guru thing.

<b>so... which games right now are

a) good </b>and<b> b) look good?</b>

i've got a hard-on for both Lineage 2 and WH40K: Dawn of War, so i'll be getting those.. but they aren't really graphics intensive. they look gorgeous, but i want something that'll show off my equipment. sorta like a speedo. <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/style_images/TSA_Skin-975/icon12.gif' border='0' alt='user posted image' />

    Run HL2, full blast, and in <b>a window</b>.

    Best way to show off your stuff, that way you can stress your video card <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    If that doesn't work, try Doom 3 in a window. It was more hoggish than HL2 on my computer.

    EDIT : Good and look good? Nah never heard of a game with both kinds of qualities....

    half life 2 and doom 3 should work your comp hard enuf altho i really think doom 3 is boring after the first level.

    rome total war is an awesome game altho it has been out for some time now. the huge amounts of 3d soldiers should challenge your comp, especially if all settings are set to high. enormous fun that game is. a thousand soldiers fighting another thousand... spectacular

    i'll get it at some point, though.

    STALKER looks so f*ing good at this point... but by the time it comes out i'll probably be at boot camp.

    Don't get Lineage 2, get World of Warcraft. That's really all I have to say.

    Lineage 2 blows compared to WoW. The only draw is dark elves wearing very little... and even so, you've got that in WoW too. :b Gameplay and graphics, WoW wins. <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    From what I've heard, Lineage 2 is bot city. Think Diablo 1 or 2. Everyone cheats...

    Because the game needs to be in motion to appreciate its beauty. Or their computers just sucked mass ****.

    Battlegrounds? ^^;


    EDIT:: If your drooling to that then when battlegrounds is released you better have something soft on the floor for your jaw to landon when it drops in sheer amazment. Let me just say this.

    WoW > L2.

    Save your money, plain and simple, and in all honosty.

    not many great games with stellar graphics are coming out soon, so why not save that money for something else in the future. seeing how you are going to bootcamp and all...
