So i want a single player game. Any good ones? Also i hate RTS games please dont reccomend them.unrealplaya55
Chronicles of Riddick is excellent.
Far Cry still holds up well.
Crysis is decent.
Max Payne 2 still holds up VERY well.
Doom 3 is OK.
STALKER, HL:2, COD:4, Prey, Quake 4 all suck.

If you don't have the orange box then it is a must buy. Portal and HL series will make you a happy camper.
Some older games

Sorry the best single player game isn't up to date. And if youare playing a game strictly for graphics thats idiotic.

Is that the sequel to Mist? I've heard very good things about it!
Never heard of any Mist game, but it is the sequel to the very similarly titled Myst. ;)
Why, what's Mist like? :P

No wonder I couldn't find it online to buy all these years!!!!! Doh!
For me, the Golden Age of single-player games ended sometime after Planescape: Torment was released. So, you're going to be looking for older games.
Just to name a few...
Three games I recommend most highly as single player experiences:
System Shock 2: A science fiction roleplaying first person shooter horror masterpiece. Genius.
Escape from Butcher Bay: Excellent combination of shooter, stealther and adventurerer. Extremely well told story, cinematic feel and production values.
Vampire the Masquerade Bloodlines: A magnificent roleplaying game where everything you can do defers to the actual roleplaying. Dialogue, combat, questing... it's a true roleplaying game.
You like these three games, I like you.
If you want a really long amout of gameplay from just two games, get oblivion and stalker. if you want a short burst of adreniline, get cod4 and crysis. or bioshock. or World in Conflict, that was pretty good, and it has skirmishes. whatever. with_teeth26
how long is stalker?

Long enough and boring like hell, for me at least

sounds like a winning combination. you've convinced me.

Dreamfall yes! all good riven fans should play it. I love when a game that's not an FPS gets a look in.
ok cool. im looking into stalker.

Riven, the game I suggested, is over ten years old, yet it most certainly does not look like crap. As far as visual complexity, its graphics are still beyond even what Crysis can offer.
Definetly Call of Cthulhu: Dark Corners of the Earth

Although I am always looking for games with good stories, I just felt that Call of Cthulhu's horrible gameplay and overall presentation dramatically reduced the game's overall experience to a very mediocre one. I mean, there were times in that game where I was really trying to take the game seriously, but many of the enemy voice actors would make me burst out laughing.

LOL agreed completely. I tried long and hard to come up with a worse and more wrong opinion than "HL:2 sucks", but I really can't. That's the most ridiculous opinion I've ever heard. That being said - I would recommend the original Half-life and its expansions if you have not yet played them. They are easily as good as, if not better than HL2. Outside of that - FEAR - pretty decent (though not outstanding) Far Cry - same No One Lives Forever - great, and funny to boot Stubbs the Zombie - entertaining for its campiness, and cheap Psychonauts - one of the best games I've played in recent memory. Outstanding. COD 1 & 2 - if you haven't played them, they're both classics Medal of Honor + Expansions - same American McGee's Alice - extremely twisted and disturbing. A lot of fun XIII - unique looking, decently fun So there's a list of things to consider that I enjoyed playing.Pac-man? I hear Frogger is good. Stay away from Pitfall, it's just complete pornographic sleaze. Guy falling into holes and such.fenriz275Boy fenriz, I've been reading your replies in several threads, and I have to say - I'm struck not only by your cordial nature, but the sheer genius of most of your replies. Truly helpful, truly insightful, truly hilarious in the utter brilliance - and I can only hope that someday I can begin to approach your level of forum-deity. /sarcasm Seriously. You must think you're being funny, but you're trolling and adding unnecessary and unfunny comments to every thread. People are geniunely asking for help, and others are trying to help them. Please stop. @060390 I bought Undying awhile back - and the single-player is definitely good, though I found it terrifying!
