GGD Game Recommendations Thread - Post 'What Game Should I Get' Questions Here

[QUOTE="mentos_eater424"]

Which racing game should I get for the PS3.I have GT5 Prologue already so don't mention that. I don't particularily like realistic games (didn't mind GT5P and don't like PGR). I love Most Wanted. Should I get NFS Undercover, GRID or Midnight Club LA. I'm leaning toward Midnight Club LA.

HiResDes

Since you liked NFD Undercover I think your best bet would be Midnight Club LA.

I would second this. Midnight Club LA is fantastic.

I've seen Left 4 Dead mentioned as a PS3 game a few times here in a couple different posts, and just wanted to point out that there is no PS3 version of that game.

hahaha, oh yeah:lol:

1. Left 4 Dead 2. Team Fortress 2 3. Call of Duty: World At War 4. Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 5. Crysis Warhead (More of a single-player experience but it does have Team Deathmatch) 6. Battlefield 2142, Its kind of old, and starting to show its age.

Hey guys,

I'm looking for an RPG, not a strategy RPG, that has a job cla ss system that isn't FFX-2 or FFV.

It doesn't HAVE to be a Job cla ss system - just something customizable while retaining uniqueness of identity.

Playstation 2: Final Fantasy XII/Rouge Galaxy/Dark Cloud 2/Persona 3: Fes or Persona 4/Digital Devil Saga/Star Ocean 3: Till the End of Time/Radiata Stores

To some to those who've complained, not everyone has the time to go to this board and answer all the requests. For a while back, I was picking up the slack in this board. It's not easy and it's an inconvience sometimes. I understand how frustrating it is not to be answered but yet get sent here time after to time for making topics asking which game to get. I'll try to visit this more often.

Question:

Would you rather buy Crystal Defenders R1 (Wii) and a NES vc game, or

Age of Booty (PS3) and Wild Arms?

Conjuration

I would get Age of Booty and Wild Arms... mostly because of Wild Arms. Age of Booty is definitely a much better game than Crystal Defenders even though I'm a hardcore Final Fantasy fan. That game can be pretty difficult and punishing. But, it's also over rather quickly and not worth the purchase.

I like how you still mentioned FFXII after he said not to :P

Yeah, he said not Final Fantasy X-2 and Final Fantasy V. And no games that are srts or whatnot. Don't matter though. It's the thought that counts I guess that you're looking for my mistakes. *attempt to not sound like a jerk about it*

I thought I was taking advantage of an opportunity to mess with you, I know tone is hard to convey over the web, but I was just kidding...But I understand how there could have been a misunderstanding, given that you do come off sounding like a jerk to me, even with the disclaimer.

ok guys. im looking for a good game to rent. me and my friend were going to rent the same game so the game has to be 2 player co-op campaign and have multiplayer. i was looking for a new shooter after gears 2, halo 3, left 4 dead, and call of duty got boreing. any suggestions would help tremendously.Leadfarmer

Army of Two-Third Person shooter that emphisises on co-op through the game. Has multiplayer as well.

Call of Duty: World at War: WWII shooter that can support up to four player co-op in the campaign. Has multiplayer as well.

Crackdown: You're a superhuman agent that sort of plays like GTA. Can go through the campaign co-op.

Resident Evil 5: No multiplayer though, but is a good co-op game.

Saints Row 2: Co-op and multiplayer.

Kane and Lynch: Good co-op game and has multiplayer.

Okay, which one should i get:

Army men operation green

or

Army men turf wars?

both gba. which is longer? Has action but also alittle side things?

I used to play Army Men on the PC way back. Was a fun RTS but was a little hard for me when I was a lad. Since then, I never really played any of the other army men games, especially those on the GBA.

But... based on looking these two titles up:

I'd have to say pick up Turf Wars primarly because the two are basically the same game in terms of play style but Turf Wars has improved graphics. Both are mission based type of games within the range of 15+ missions and 5 difference locales.

Hopefully this helped you. I've never played these titles before on the GBA but if I had to choose, I'd go for Turf Wars if I could only pick one.

Ok I just want a good game to play for the 360. I like all kinds and varieties of games , I've been to gamestop and looked at everything didn't really see anything I liked. The only game I can eve think about buying is Fallout 3 but I was going to see what else people thought was good. A good action/adventure game would be nice right now, with a good amount of play time as well I don't want something that I finish really fast.

Fallout 3 is definitaly a title worth investing if you feel the fps/rpg is up your alley. There is a lot of replay value and can take up 60+ hours to complete the game just once. One of the games you can say you get a lot of bang for your buck.

In terms of action/adventure games, there aren't that many that last any good length amount of time. Devil May Cry IV is a good action/adventure game that takes anywhere of 8-10 hours to complete. But there are also multiple modes to go through and upgrades to get and the achievements. I've probably invested at the least 20-30 hours into that game either from just playing through the modes or trying to S-Rank the missions which is no easy feat. But, it can be a tad difficult but nothing that practice can overcome.

Resident Evil 5 is another worthy purchase. Good campiagn with lots of extra costumes/weapons/modes to unlock and reasons to play through the game more than once.

Overall: I'd suggest getting Devil May Cry IV or Resident Evil 5. If you feel a fps/rpg is something that'll tickle your fancy, I don't believe you'll be dissapointed with Fallout 3.

I'm looking for a good story driven PC game, preferably one that came out between 06-09. Any genre would do, I just want a good story with unpredictable plot twists.monotonbewegung

Dreamfall: The Longest Journey.

okay, thanks. Now how about a PS2 rts?EDIT:Never mind my fist question. How does Gamecube army men rts compare to the ps2 one?

Cryostasis, I see a huge difference in people's opinion of it. I was looking for a horror themed PC game to buy from steam that will work on a cheap PC like mine. Atmosphere, longevity, puzzle-solving, and good story are mainly what i'm looking for. I am not partial to anything in terms of gameplay. Does Cryostasis fit what i'm looking for, or should I heed the warnings of the player reviews (which seemed to be more negative of the game)?

Thanks in advance

Should i get two Worlds for xbox 360? i have exhausted Oblivion and need something different... Thanks.IAMTHEJOKER88

No you should get Fallout 3 or Sacred 2 if you really desire a medieval setting.

I need help. I'm usually into adventure/fantasy games, but I'm looking to get into first person shooters..I just have no idea where to start! I'm not new to them in general, but I've never really had the urge to play them myself (I watched others). Would Doom 3 be too advanced to start with? I've heard great things about it. Any advice?RedQueen20

Well, it really depends on your tastes and what sort of atmosphere you prefer. World War II titles such as Medal of Honor or Call of Duty if you like the whole "war" theme. If you're into sci-fi stuff, Halo: Combat Evolved would be a good choice. Doom 3 is a good choice if you like the horror/blood theme and going to hell and back. As for Doom 3 being too advanced for someone just jumping into a FPS for the first time, I'd have to say yes and no. Even though levels are fiarly linear in fashion, you do lose a sense of direction sometimes and quite a few of the enemies are a little difficult. Ammo can be pretty scarce sometimes as well. But, these are challenges that can be overcome and shouldn't be impossible. It's gonna take a little effort and conservation of ammo on your part. I'd recemmend a title like Halo or Call of Duty that are a lot more user friendly. Get used to the aspects of a FPS and then you should be prepped enough to go head strong into Doom 3.

These are just my suggestions.

Looking for older games (gamecube, pc, possibly ps2 even though I still don't own one) with great storylines/memorable characters: -------------------------------------------------------------- Already played: -Morrowind -Silent Hill 1,2,3,4 -Zelda: OoT+MM+WW -Resident Evil 1, gonna play 4 soon Can't think of many other good story games I've played that are old. I'm not looking for any form of JRPG btw, even if the stories/chars are good, can't stand the gameplay Thanks guysJordo321

Gamecube: Metal Gear Solid: Twin Snakes/Eternal Darkness/Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess

Playstation II: Okami/Shadow of the Colossus/Ico/Metal Gear Solid II: Sons of Liberty/Metal Gear Solid III:Snake Eater/ Legacy of Kain: Defiance/ Legacy of Kain: Soul Reaver II/ Primal

PC: The Longest Journey/Longest Journey II: Dreamfall/Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic/ Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic II/ Jade Empire/ Diablo II/

Anyone have any other suggestions? Just remembered I've gotta get on God of War, but then again I don't have a ps2 (had one but my dad gave it away to some woman >:| for her kids since I wasn't using it..ARG)Jordo321

I also enjoy fighting, killing, and role-playing. Tiniceas

I'm considering getting a soccer game. I don't really play any sports games, and am not a big sports fan in general. Soccer is a little intersting to me, and I think I may be able to enjoy a soccer video game. But I'm not really sure what is the best option. FIFA or PES? Would you reccoment the must current year, or a previous year? Is there another soccer brand I'm not aware of that may be a better choice? Would you get it for the 360 or for the Wii cause its motion controls are much better? Or would I be better off getting a light fun game like super mario strikers? And if so what, of if you say go mario, would you just get the gamecube game, or would you go for the wii game cause is it better with imporivements and good controls? So, yeah, what do you think?

Should I get gears of war 1? How's the online community in it? Is it true that it's one of the worst?

I'm looking to play a RPG on either the gamecube or PS2. Have never played one before. What should it be? I'm playing too many games on the PC right now to start playing a RPG on it. Thanks in advance.manningbowl135

Lots of choices. But Ii honestly say go for Tales of Symphonia on the Gamecube.

I'm kinda in the same boat. Mostly fantasy/adventure and jRPG's. I think Bioshock may be a great place to start.

Also, thought I never thought I'd say it. I just started the first Halo game, and am actually enjoying it quite a bit. So, you may wanna give that a go too. I think its a great place to start for begginers like us ;)

manningbowl135: I recommend Tales Of Symphonia for the Gamecube, It's one of the best games for it and has a great story.

zeorshadow19: Gears Of War 1 is a very good game but the online community can be a bit ruf to put it simple. GOW2 is the better of the two however.
