Any PC gamers here? (not crap like WoW)


I want to know if there are any PC gamers here.

1. What type games do you play

2. Your favourite most recent game (most people would say COD4 or Crysis I guess)

3. The most anticipated game of the year

4. And finally the spec of your rig!

Me and my uni mates got into Generals: Zero Hour for a bit! Had some great matches. If it lasted any longer than an hour though, it always ended in a stalemate! Anyone else play that?

Re: Any PC gamers here? (not crap like WoW)


1) FPS & RTS
2) I won't say Crysis, so Supreme Commander & World In Conflict (Both Singleplayer), and Sins of a Solar Empire
3) I can't think of anything for the PC, but I'm particularly looking forward to Fable 2 and FFXIII on the 360.
4) Quad Core 3.2ghz Processor, 4GB RAM, Radeon HD 4870 1TB HD
^ and the above is in that case:

And yep, it looks that good. I just built it all myself

WiC, excellent game. My only complaint about it in fact (when I got used to the controls anyway) was that the campaign was too short.

Re: Any PC gamers here? (not crap like WoW)


1.Hey. I play RTS and FPS games usually.. With tons and tons of other stuff on the side.

2.Probably Crysis as predicted (although I'm disappointed with the modding capabilities) ..or most RTS games recently released. I play alot of games that are older. I'm playing uplink alot recently.

3. The main PC game im looking forward to is Dawn of War 2, I suppose anything that is solely developed for the PC will be happily received. I do look forward to Planetside 2 being announced!

4.
Intel Core 2 Quad , at 2.93Ghz
2x SLI 8800 Ultra
4GB RAM
Sound Blaster X-Fi Elite Pro
1.3TB of HD Space, spread over 3 drives. Mostly full
In this case:


Probably the best setup I could imagine using, I love it!

EDIT: I HATE WoW! why do people love it so much? It's the same as every other MMO!

Re: Any PC gamers here? (not crap like WoW)


lets see..

Anything made by Relic, world in conflict, supreme commander, CnC 3, Sins of a solar empire..Most of them have been mentioned!

I can't fault many of the big RTS games in the last couple of years. I have to say that in my eyes, Relic own the RTS world right now though.

I play so many different games it's impossible to list!

1. Football Manager

2. Football Manager 2008

3. ?

4. AMD Athlon XP 2200+, 1.80 GHz, 512MB of RAM - ocassionaly displays the blue screen of death. Often stalls and crashes if running too many applications at once. Mozilla Firefox renamed itself to 'microsfot villain'. The fan makes funny sounds.

It has a see through grille on both sides. It's apparently the most efficient cooling case you can buy
The side where you can actually SEE the internals is covered by 4 huge fans.
You can see however, that it lights up nice and green inside!

This is also a massive case. bigger than any other I have seen, It doesnt fit under my desk.. I can't wait to move house so I can have it on display though..
