Well recently I put all my money into upgrading my old computer. I have a PS3 with COD4 and Vegas so their out. I plan on getting into pc gaming for 1 of two things. I'm looking for a game that either has awesome vehicles and weapons and stuff that console games don't have or a game that takes actual strategy or atleast has some mature gamers when you play online. I'm only into the online aspect.
For ps2 I was really into the socom series because the players were mature and really tried to work together. I don't wanna get a game like Halo were everyone runs around holding the trigger spinning in circles. I don't really know much about computer FPS so anything you say I'll look into.

So what games do you guys recommend? I have heard BF2 and BF2142 were good but also heard a few things and frontlines and thats comming out soon so any help is greatly appreciated.

Ok thanks I wasnt sure if there were any good games like FFOW or anything else I should look into since I can only get one game for a little.

Also which BF and should I get the expansions?

FFOW is bassiclly a copy-cat of the BF games anyway, just worse (I was in the Beta.)

I would get BF2, and dont get any exp. packs. Nobody plays them, if you like BF2, get special forces though, since that gives you new weapons.

The orange box may fit yore needs perfectly. TF2 has some pretty mature players and they work in a team ( the word "team" is in the title:))

I'd say either TF2, BF2, or Day of Defeat: Source. Especially the latter. It's easy to find a good server and the majority of the people seem to be pretty mature and nice. Plus the game is totally awesome ;)

I say BF2 because of the realistic setting, vehicles, and huge maps.

Edit: and it's only $10 bucks, can't beat that.

Battlefield 2 is great; my only complain against is that has very unbalanced vehicle/infantry ratio. Really you cand do anything against chopters or fighhters, probably the reason because a lot of people plays on infantry only servers. The balance in BF 2142 better but the maps are worse.

Another excellent fps mp is Quake Wars; very balanced mechanics, asymetric bands, very teamwork oriented, but at the same time a noob with low accuracy can be really usefull in his team in task of launching deployables, support artillery.

Also COD 4 has a great mp, with unlockable contents, character customization and intense firefights, but the maps are a bit small and overpopulated.

In the rts two things: the Dawn Of War series and in some moment in the near future Starcraft II. Also BF 3 will arrive at the end of 2008 or in some moment of 2009.
