Anyone still PC game?

[Toasted1]

Built my rig around being able to play games on it and have found I still only play CS:S and the occasional game of COD4. For some reason when I do game I prefer the PS3 over the computer probably due to being more comfortable sitting in a recliner as opposed to a computer chair.

[joetama]

I like to play Max Payne occasionally on my computer.

[IamDeMan]

I only play old games and haven't updated my PC in quite a while. I used to keep up with it religiously and update the vid at the very least every 6 mos. I did this because I enjoyed playing online and the various mods that were made for the games. then I just lost interest. Now I wouldn't see a point to PC if I wanted to start gaming again. the consoles are online now and in the end much cheaper for gamin than PC, unless you pirate all your games.

[Captain Ahab]

I have been playing Yahoo! towers a lot lately.

fun multiplayer game by yahoo, similar to tetris, but with offensive and defensive powers and you play against people.

I know its not really a PC game, but its fun.

[bluecar]

I'd play Oregon trail if I can find it.

Guess which guy I choose...

[natisfynest]

[MAROJ248]

Every now and then I play CSS.

[hemroids]

I only play single player games on my pc cause they are free or just "demo" it first then maybe get a key for online play.I have found servers that work but dont bother mostly. I buil this computer to be able to play alot when it was built. its 4 years old now has 4 gigs ram and an 8600 card old crap now but rocked when it was new. I just built a new one with my friend and its got all the latest goodies

[pl8er]

I play BF2. Really only game I play. I just downloaded project reality ( a mod for bf2) which is really difficult because its set to be real life so no jumping out of an out of control chopper at 30 feet to deploy a parachute and live.

[ngsm13]

No.

[Spider Monkey]

I'm still mad bomb at Oregon Trail and Number Crunchers.

[IDSkot]

I PC game. Mostly single players. I get too competitive when I play online. I find it stupid to stress over a game. And single player is a lot more relaxed, and chill. I can pause it, talk on AIM or lurk the forum, then go right back. Where as online play requires constant attention... like a girlfriend, or nG.

I used to play 1942 hardcore then upgraded to this. I didn't really like 2142.

[joetama]

Age of Empires II i still kick ass IMHO.

[mackin]

i used to play Medal of Honor Allied Assault, CoD 2, BF2, BF2 Special Forces, BF2142, CoD 4 and Age of Mythology (sounds gay but it was super fun)

i don't play any of them anymore. haven't had enough time this winter with school and work and all. maybe this summer i'll start playing one again. or if i get a sick laptop for college. Hopefully i can get an alienware or something...

[IDSkot]

Age of Empires II i still kick ass IMHO.

AoE 2 will ALWAYS kick ass. As well as WC3 and SC. They're just classics, bro. They're what every RTS bases itself off of.

[joetama]

Diablo II as well... Good stuff.

[sks_lex]

Running through Half Life 2 again.

[wasted ink]

Solitaire.

[joetama]

Can't forget FreeCell and Hearts.

I still play COD modern warfare from time to time. I use to upgrade a lot back in my bachelor days, but I am married and have a daughter now so I got other priorities. The funny thing is my last upgrade was some time ago and my x850 pro can still handle all the new games except the ones that require shader 3.0, in that case I break out the PS3.

My only gripe is playing shooters on a console, I suck at it b/c I have been on the PC way too much. I need one of those gaming recliner chairs so my back wont be all fucked.

Great game...

[dman4486]

^^^max payne was the last game I played on PC......since then it has been online flash based gaming or nothing on the laptop.

[Alcoholic]

I hear ya on the recliner part. I wish I had a nice laptop so I could stretch out and relax but even in my nice computer chair I find myself hunched over close to the screen whenever I PC game. Sucks man.

[bigtoyota479]

where can i get ff7 for the comp

Good luck with this. It's considered a collectors game now. I've been looking for a copy myself on places like Ebay and Craigslist. Everyone wants a premium for them, like 70 bucks +. I've seen people asking upwards of 200 bucks for certain editions of this game. And that's not the comp version, that's the PS1 version!

As far as the comp version goes, You can check with your local game stores, but odds are good you'll never see one there. I'd say keep watching Ebay and Craigslist if you really want one. If you don't want an actual hardcopy, there are other avenues, but they are less legal.

[patrick1202]

are you serious!!! i have ff7 for ps1. just chillen in my room wtf!?!??!

[bigtoyota479]

Dead serious yo. People will pay big bucks for that PS1 game. No shit.

[patrick1202]

im gonna get it out when i get out of work and see what kind of condition it is in. i know i only played the first disc. never took the others out.

[Toasted1]

How long for a noob to get to be a lvl 55 Necromancer?

[patrick1202]

downloading ff7 for pc right now i will let you know if it works.

[bigtoyota479]

Yes, please do. Lemme know where you got it! I've been dying for this game for a while now, but not sure what to trust.

[Toasted1]

So is the general idea that anything you download you are not going to be able to play online?

[bigtoyota479]

It's not the general idea, it's the rule.

[patrick1202]

Yes, please do. Lemme know where you got it! I've been dying for this game for a while now, but not sure what to trust.

cool well before i left for work it was 100% downloaded, but i had no time to install and test so i get off at 4:30. when i get home i am gonna try it out and let you know. you know how to download torrents right?

[bigtoyota479]

Dood, I am so cool, I can make utorrent download shit when I am not home. I can be anywhere in the world, and have utorrent DL whatever I want whenever I want. I'll explain it if you want details.

In other words, yes, I am very familiar with torrents, and ISO mounting programs. Although getting them to work in Windows 7 was a bitch.

awesome!!! would love details! are you using remote access to your home computer? damn i have windows 7. so is daemon tools gonna be bitch? i have not yet installed that yet.

[bigtoyota479]

Daemon tools will not work. You need either Virtual Clone Drive or PowerISO Virtual Drive manager.

As far as the other, it's a little thing called DropBox. Totally bitchin', and free too. Lemme find the article and give you linkage here.

[bigtoyota479]

This article will give you 5 bitchin' things to do with DropBox. Item #4 deals with your torrent client. You use uTorrent, right? If not, you need to do so. It's the best one out there, IMO. Small, fast, and really lightweight.

[patrick1202]

cool thanks!!!

[Spider Monkey]

cool thanks!!!

But stay the fuck away from their forum or I'll kill you.

yes i do use uTorrent. what is wrong with there forum? i don't plan on signing up for it or anything...

[bigtoyota479]

It's full of elitist PC assholes that think their shit don't stink. You can sign up for their forums, as long as you promise to troll the fuck out of them. However, in doing so, you will most likely be banned within 24 hours. They are anal retentive there.

[bigtoyota479]

Sigh. And I really need to stop posting there myself. I'm slowly winding down, but after taking a step back and looking at it, that place really, really sucks my ass.

[bigtoyota479]

Now that I think about it, it would be rather fun to get all the people from CT to go over there and troll their asses off until we all get banned. Imagine the Chaos! It would be a months worth of lel!

[patrick1202]

word

[patrick1202]

Yes, please do. Lemme know where you got it! I've been dying for this game for a while now, but not sure what to trust.

it works. but you must have a number pad. also i have yet to figure out how to play full screen. i will find the torrent link in a second.

[patrick1202]

http://www.mininova.org/tor/2053378

[bigtoyota479]

Oh yeah, I has a gamepad. There should be a way to use the keyboard as well, but that may require "other" methods.

Which ISO program did you use to mount it? Did Daemon tools work? The last time I tried it, Windows 7 blocked the driver. It was either hack the registry all to shit, or get something else. I got something else.

Joo have been raped.

[patrick1202]

it installs right on the hardrive no iso mounting involved. if you read through the comments there is a link to a bunch of different patches that help. like laptop play with out number key.

[bigtoyota479]

Yeah, I noticed that as soon as I DL'd it that it was bin files and not ISO's. Nice find, brosef.

[bigtoyota479]

Oh shit. I just realized you said number pad. Erm, I will have to remedy this situation as soon as possible. Stand by for hackage.

[bigtoyota479]

While I"m thinking about it, for those that still PC game, this is the GO TO site for Hacks, cheats, and No CD/DVD patches.

http://www.gamecopyworld.com/

Use it responsibly and legally. Of course.

[patrick1202]

when you install it. install the goodie pack too. it has all the patchs and stuff you need. you'll find the goodie folder in the programs directory then final fantasy 7 folder.

[bigtoyota479]

I've actually already hit Rapidshare and picked up the High res patch, the have hands patch, and gobs of other shit lol.

[patrick1202]

well the goodies folder has the laptop patch for keyboards without number pads.

[IamDeMan]

Yes. I PC game. My PC is called a Wii.

[bigtoyota479]

That Wii do PSX emulation?

[IamDeMan]

It has a PS1 emulator.

[bigtoyota479]

NO shit? That is the fucking cat's meow! What about PS2 emulation?

[IamDeMan]

NO shit? That is the fucking cat's meow! What about PS2 emulation?

You are lucky to have actuall PCs with a good amount of power emulate PS2 with consistent results,let alone a console powered by a 730Mhz PowerPC processor and a 243Mhz ATI GPU.

Here is the complete list of reliable emulators for Wii right now.

http://www.wiibrew.org/wiki/List_of_homebrew_emulators

It plays GC out of the box since it is really just a refreshed GC sono emulation needed for that.

[bigtoyota479]

ya, well, ya never know. My PC can do some PS2 emulation, but I thought it would be a stretch for a Wii.

[IamDeMan]

ya, well, ya never know. My PC can do some PS2 emulation, but I thought it would be a stretch for a Wii.

It is a stretch. Even though surprisingly it takes less power on consoles to achieve desirable emulation. Mainly because they do one task so all resources are devoted to it, but I don't see reliable PS2 emulation in the future. If anything I would expect a good XBOX(not 360) port first since it has been shown that they can actually port instead of emulate XBOX games due to the x86 structure of that console. The Wii may not be x86 but it is power PC with Linux at its core and it is easy to port to it what can be ported to x86/windows.

[bigtoyota479]

Yeah, that makes a whole lot of sense. The XBOX was nothing more than a PC that ran nothing but games. Should be easy to port it to Linux. Well, maybe. Porting Windows stuff (xbox) to Linux has always been a pain in the ass. I wouldn't hold my breath on this one.
