Im fascinated with PC gaming, Im officially hooked now that Iv played Counter-Strike at a friends house, but I dont know what I should get. You see, my computer sucks ASS! Basically everything in it is from 2002 or before, so no special Nvideo GeForce stuff or whatever PC gamers have in the box. I know for a fact that my computer can run World of Warcraft and Medal of Honour: Allied Assault (Battlefield 1942 aswell, but kind of choppy) so can anyone suggest something that looks like that that would work on my PC? Im open to any genre.

Well your exact specs would help, but if WoW and MoH works on your pc then i highly suggest buying the entire half life series (but HL2 episode 1 might not work for you). IMHO HL has the greatest single player campaign in a fps + if you buy it from your local store and not off steam then you will get CSS with it.

Return to Castle Wolfenstein is a great first person shooter which was released in 2001 so it should run fine on your pc.

Three outstanding, incredible games: 1. Far Cry 2. Max Payne 2 3. Chronicles of Riddick: Escape from Butcher Bay (4. Freedom Fighters) Half-Life 2 and HL:2 Episode 1 stink. So does Call of Duty 2.

If you don't need to stick to fps's, try warcraft 3, Morrowind or NOLF 2 , oh wait, the last ones a shooter...


anyways, Farcry should run on low, FEAR, surprisingly, actually runs fine on the wreckage I call my computer!

Warcraft: TFT and maybe try Diablo 2, loads of people still play these games via battle.net.

If you like FPS get stuck into the HL series

check out system shock 2, and, if you can stand to go further back down the pc timeline - pick up the (original) doom collector's edition - perhaps the best two games ever made, and they'll both run very nicely for you - half life is worth a look too, if you don't already own that

you need a good real time strategy too, if you can run world of warcraft then you can probably run dawn of war - a great place to start

and it'd be worth your time checking out the great roleplaying games like baldur's gate 1 and 2, fallout 1 and 2, planescape torment and maybe even icewind dale 1 and 2

If you like strategy games then I suggest Age of Empires 2 (Age of Empires 3 probably wouldn't run on your computer, but version 2 is better anyhow...).

Age of Empires 1-3

Neverwinter Nights 1  (maybe 2)

(Half-Life 2 would probably work on your computer, it doesn´t require very much)

You must have been smoking something when you played it.
