I'm basically a staple NFS player, apart from that i don't bother playing anything that involves more than four keys at a time i don't want to overcook my play!

[Aryan]

Try out FPS games. There are some awesome games like Half Life (this is a classic!!), HL-2 (and it's various parts), Crysis, Bioshock and the likes and you would not only be an NFS fan. I can vouch for that!

I've always wanted to play Grand Turismo, but i got the chance only once, but it was AWESOME, i played GTA san andreas for a few days before i got fed-up with a mission as i was was'nt able to complete it even after numerous attempts, but i've played NFS UG 2 fully THRICE like some maniac,

EDIT: Some one told me that all of splinter cell series are very good

to me personally spore is just tooooooooo vast and huge patience is required.that day i saw a video of how to find earth in the galaxy.that only told me how huge and patience requiring and time taking this game is.frankly i dont have that much patience..i am going to get pure..from blackrock studios.

Once upon a time I was an ardent fan of the NFS series. I had the following collection -

NFSII
NFSII SE ( spl edition)
NFS III Hot Pursuit
NFS 4 ( whatever it was called)
NFS Porsche Unleashed
NFS Hot Pursuit 2 ?

And then I lost all interest in that series with the new custom cars theme, street racing bla bla..

I also have a now-defunt MS FFB Wheel which I used to play all F1 games from EA Sports starting from F1 Season 2000 to F1 Challenge 99-02. And continued with rFactor, GTR2 etc. Basically driving games ...drive me

Now I have a Logitech Momo FFB wheel but I hardly use it coz gaming has taken a back seat for the last two years. But there are still occasional weekends when I am online playing GTR2 or rFactor/rFactor mods...and when I am on it - I am bloody good ha ... So you better watch out online - dont bump into me

BTw NFS series is considered as Arcade type racing games. for reallistic racing game play u need Grand Turismo, Dirt, Grid( arcade-ish but better than NFS), GTR series.

BTw NFS series is considered as Arcade type racing games. for reallistic racing game play u need Grand Turismo, Dirt, Grid( arcade-ish but better than NFS), GTR series.

1.just kind of addon..new weapons and area of map.not new sort of gameplay.and then again hog to the pc.
2.a total flop.
3.a huge hit.like they say..evolution.
4.again new maps and weapons.gameplay roughly remains same.

5.one huge strategy game to play.very detailed also..hindi voices included.
6.thats one hell of a game everybody is waiting for.
7.again i would say play PRO-E.fifa has now become a fashion and glamour football game.PRO-E has better gameplay physics than fifa.my opinion.
8.dead space i see on doom line..will love to check it out.
9.keeping a check on this.
10.i am not a NHL fan.
11.now this i am totally sure will blow the hell of crysis.and prove that ubisoft can survive and stand tall in front of cry engine 2 which will cry after seeing its game far crying.the sheer gameplay and world is totally new and unique and fresh.unlike crysis where all the engine and story was of far cry itself.far cry 2 will one of top priorities in everybody's HDD.
12 and 13 also good games.

14 15 16 i never heard of.
17.well that will be on the lines of say battlefield 2142 frontlines fuel of war type game.all futuristic..thermal guns and remote bots etc.fun to play.
18.that needs no description.
19.again that needs no description.
20.ahhh!!!long after nightfire james bond returns to PC with a tweaked call of duty 4 engine.
21.ubisoft has gone i think on a unique way to potray POP.unlike next gen graphics they have more concentrated on the artwork and gameplay.since their next gen is already there..assassins creed.so if this also was next gen then assassins creed and POP would have been siblings.
22.the mother of all item girls is coming back to PC.and the new tomb raider also is HOT!!
23.well..i dont understand..you go at some 250kmph and hit a vehicle and your speed detoriates for some secs but no damage..but police chases...yum yum..undercover..hmm
24.dont know
25.will be like on the lines of tom clancy and other stuff.
26.already mentioned.
27.hearing for the first time.
28.if anybody doesnt buy this then sure they will be dead.
29.hearing for the first time.

you missed one most anticipated game in that AND THEN list...
MIRRORS EDGE.that will be one revolutionary game ever.

Yes NFS was arcade. I used to play it on the key board many times. I was not talking about realism I was talking about what genre interested me most.

GTR,rFactor and F1C series are as real as you can get.

[nightwing]

Has anyone played Stalker Clear sky? I cant believe THQ/GSC messed it up again. Surpasses Stalker SOC in bugs. I think it's the first game to have an engine that can create unique problems on every other PC.
