Star wars republic comando..

PLZ, help me out! suggest some good games that will meet my specs xD

THANKS!

Looks like you've got an 8800GTS, and believe it or not, that can blow away a lot of games released this generation. Though I'm pretty sure it should run TES IV: Oblivion better than that. :?

Anyway, if you're into RTS games I recommend Company of Heroes. Will run like a dream on your GPU and it's tonnes of fun.

If not, try The Witcher or Mass Effect if you want an RPG. For shooters, get the Orange Box. 5 games you haven't played yet it one package.

With 1Gb ram, I somehow doubt it.

Could you tell us more about your PC? For example, is your processor AMD or Intel and single or dual core? What about the graphics card? You said that it has 320Mb memory but what is the brand and model?

I said that because I don't know a single video card model other than the 320MB variant of the 8800 GTS that has that amount of VRAM.

Thanks, this has helped loads!

More details on my PC

856mb RAM

2.49ghz CPU speed - AMD Turion(tm) 64 Mobile Technology MK-36 CPU

Hope this has helped, ty for all responses so far, xD

yeah, i don't think any of the games that aliblabla recommended will run well on your rig (except the orange box, which is just about the best purchase anyone can make).JnWycliffe

Cool, no one lives forever 2 looks wicked xD

U reccomend I get another Gig of RAM then? O.o

gormo4

it looks like you have a laptop? you can add ram, but you can't upgrade your cpu.

thought so ty ;p

with another GB of RAM I should be able to play mass effect.

Upgrading a laptop is next to impossible for the tech incompenent.

In other words, you are stuck with what you've got. You should forget about Mass Effect, The Witcher and Company of Heroes for now. Rather look into games that were released between 2002 and 2005. Though Witcher and Company of Heroes should have demos you could download the check how they run on your laptop.

gormo4

well, it looks like the minimum requirement for mass effect is 1gb ram, so you'll definitely need more ram just to run the game. not sure if that will be enough for you though. :?

Don't forget Call of Duty (1) + United Offensive.

Try some of the free games out there, since they aren't really all that demanding. There are some nice ones that have come out:

Psi Ops

Combat Arms

Area 51

Rise and Fall: Civilizations at War

Full Spectrum Warrior

The Suffering

Then, you can get GameTap and they have some nice free games:

Deus Ex (known as one of the best RPG games ever, or even the best)

Hitman 1 and 2

Second Sight

Psychonauts

Thief: Deadly Shadows

and more. Just go to gametap.com and you have to download the GAmeTap launcher where you have to download those games and to launch the games. Hope that helps.

..... Have you tried Bud Light? just kidding.

Anyways, try out Psi-Ops. and you can get it for free at Fileplanet. Pretty good game.... Howabout Sims2? You might like it, but personaly Im bored with it.

UPGRADE or else old gameskomattias

So why not recommend him old games?

Also, get Planescape: Torment if you can find it.
