I am able to choose one game out of the following three:

** Metro Last Light

** Crysis 3

** Bioshock Infinite

Planning to pick the one with no drm.

I think they all have some form of DRM.

Crysis = Origin
Bioshock = Steam
Metro = Steam?

All three have DRM. Metro and Bioshock Infinite need Steam and Crysis 3 uses Origin

Thanks for information.

Now I'll have to choose between Metro Last Light and Bioshock Infinite.

Which game feels the most as a true pc game (not catering to consoles) ?

Which game did you like most and why?

I've only played Crysis 3 & Bioshock Infinite.

Infinite is one of my top games this year. I liked the story, setting and the characters.

The closest one to a traditional PC shooter would be Crysis 3 but they're all console ports and play like console ports. They're all good games, just none of them feel like what I'd consider a "true pc game"

I feel that Metro Last Light felt more like a true PC game than Bioshock. Bioshock did have Xbox 360 as its lead platform, while Metro had PC as its lead platform.

Both are must play games though.

Metro is the game you need then. It's the real PC performer.

Definitely not false. Like my post states, I received Steam keys for Crysis 3 in a past Humble Bundle. You can not deny it, it is installed on my computer and has been played multiple times.

Thanks though

Are you absolutely sure about that? Because Crysis 3 isn't available on the steam store, and is advertised as Origin exclusive. Copies sold by other DD retailers such as Amazon and Greenmangaming specifically state that they're activated on Origin. Sure you're not thinking of Crysis 2?

Are you sure you don't mean Crysis 2? 'Cause not only is Crysis 3 not on Steam (it's on Origin and I *think* Uplay), it has never been in a Humble Bundle.

Definitely not on Uplay. It's Origin exclusive. Every single copy of Crysis 3 on PC is running through Origin, no matter where it came from (except, I suppose, pirated copies).

Just looked, it's available to purchase on Uplay as well.

Cyrsis 3 Uplay

Cyrsis 3 Uplay

Hmm. Strange. I'm positive that it still activates on Origin, though, so buying it through Uplay would just add another, unnecessary, layer of DRM.
