November 23, 200619 yr Ok, I don't want to go off-topic but Awergh, if you want LBA3, maybe you'll wanna check this site?
December 4, 200619 yr Best PC game ever?...I guess I can pick one, but I have to list the runners up, too.To me gameplay is everything. A good example would be mech4 mercenaries, there are serious bugs and shortcomings but IMHO the gameplay still makes up for it in spades.I prefer single player content (or botmatches) to online play for non MMORPG games, so that heavily weighs on my choices.1. Asheron's Call 1 2. Bungie Oni 3. Half Life 2 (including ep1 addon (OK I know its not an addon technically but it is to me))4. Railroad Tycoon 35. Half Life 1 and addons6. UT20037. Mechwarrior 4: Mercenaries8. StarCraft9. R.O.S.E. Online10. F.A.K.K.211. Quake 3 Arena12. UT Classic (Non-GoTY)13. Scorched3d14. Quake 115. Dungeon Keeper 1 & 216. Cyber Empires~edit~ Sorry, had to. I forgot about a game. Edited December 4, 200619 yr by jaqie
December 9, 200619 yr I have GoTY but the gameplay was ruined in it. volatile ammo? a crossbow? ugh. the original UT was much better.
December 10, 200619 yr volitile ammo is just a mutator and the crossbow only comes with chaos.The only differences between UT and UT:GoTY areUT GoTY is version 436, comes with bonus map pack 1,2,3, it comes with Chaos and Rocket Laucher arena, it says GoTY, It has pictures for the splash screen, and obviously there are some extra mutators and the original UT had a working copy of NetStats
December 10, 200619 yr Okay me:All PC games:Star Trek Deep Space Nine The Fallen, America's Army, Alien Arena 2007, Unreal Tournament 2004, Halo Combat Evolved, Star Trek Voyager Elite Force, Star Trek Elite Force II, Quake III Arena, The Sims 1, Flight Simulator 2004, and Space Colony.
December 11, 200619 yr i must agree you mean age of empires II because it is so much better than aoe3 i dont see you have a 1000 population limit in aoe3
December 12, 200619 yr yes i do think aoeII is better than aoeIII. population limit means nothing. if you have 150 soilders in aoeII, you will dominate. controlling 150 soldiers is hard enough, 800 soilders will just be a pain. i just think that the gameplay is better. but thats me.
December 12, 200619 yr I prefer single player since I've had quite limited experience with multiplayer; I've either had a slow connection or my local friends hasn't had the computer to keep up with mine, let alone the games. I also don't like the very fast paced game play that is very common in multiplayer against other human players, COOP against bots is quite fun though.To me the greatness of a game depends on both its overall game play and its longevity.A game may be very entertaining and totally amazing in many ways, but if it's too short and/or very linear and there is nothing more to it (few/no different play styles to master, no expansions, no new campaigns, no new maps/levels/missions, no map/scenario/mission editor, bad/no multiplayer, no mods or similar things) you probably won't play it for very long and not more than once.A very good game should be almost as enjoyable as it was when first released, when you play it many years later.Nothing is perfect and that definitely applies to games too, there are always some things that can be improved. You may not notice it in the beginning, but when playing other similar games you sure will.There are however a number of games that fits the two most important criteria’s (overall game play and longevity).The best PC game ever created (this far) is (according to me and many others): Operation Flashpoint (including its expansions and mods).Why?It has great game play and longevity because of the multitude of different game play variations and a very large number of additions available (many expansions, mods, user created missions/campaigns, large maps to explore and fight on in multiplayer).The graphics, sound and a few other aspects are not really up to today's standards (can be improved with mods though) but if you haven't played it you should at least try the demo.Other great games are, to name a few (some unfortunately lack the longevity): Warcraft2, Transport Tycoon, C&C-series, Worms-series, Vietcong-series, No One Lives Forever-series and Call Of Duty-series.
