Techrecruit Posted July 13, 2007 Share Posted July 13, 2007 I just got into pc gaming and was curious what your #1 game pick would be for a beginner. Nothing to difficult to learn b/c I don't want to read the manual for a few weeks to get up to speed on all the functionality Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DL. Posted August 11, 2007 Share Posted August 11, 2007 It very much depends on the computer specs, you can forget about newer games if some of the specs (primarily video card and CPU) are low. Especially shooters (often called FPS=first person shooters) are quite demanding on your system. Older games use simpler controls and may therefore be easier for beginners, playing games on the PC is a slightly different experience compared to playing on consoles (most people would prefer to play shooters on PC).F.E.A.R. won't work very well with a simple video card meant for office use.

ripken204 Posted August 11, 2007 Share Posted August 11, 2007 well we asked what video card he has and he failed to respond Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DL. Posted August 12, 2007 Share Posted August 12, 2007 well we asked what video card he has and he failed to respondYeah I know, but stressing the importance of the video card when it comes to FPS-games doesn't hurt (as you know, far from every new PC has a descent vid card). Even if the topic starter doesn't come back, it may give others in a similar situation something to think about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
