Deus Ex was a smart buy. It's kind of in the System Shock 2 vein (which I would have recommended if you didn't already have it. It's a great, but often overlooked, game) but a little lighter on the RPG aspect.
NOLF1 was very good, especially now that it's about $15 for the GOTY edition. I think it had a bit more need for strategy than the sequel, a better developed story, and taking out the pre-mission weapon selection was stupid and highly frustrating. NOLF2 definitely came off as being rushed to release (still a high-caliber game though).
Buy Half-Life. Now. The game is great, and the mods are wonderful too - right now I'm playing a lot of Natural Selection.

well, when I wrote that list I just looked trough my cd-collection, so i forgot to put halflife in that list, I have the game, its just that I lended it to a friend a while ago(and he hasn´t returned it yet.)
Fade to black is an early third person 3d-shooter(sequel to the famous flashback), so I put it in the list, because it technically speaking is a 3d-shooter.
BTW i just ordered deus ex, so it should arrive in my mailbox in about 2 days.
maybe I should try to actually complete system shock 2, I never really got through that game(I completed the prequel though).
I think I got halfway trough the game in coop with my dad, untill we got to a place where it just kept crashing.
maybe its more stable in singleplayer.Last edited by TdB; 25 November 2002, 13:31.This sig is a shameless atempt to make my post look bigger.

System Shock 2 is worth finishing. The absolute end is a little too easy, but everything is so engaging....
I've played it through twice now. I've tried to go a third time, specializing in Psy, but it just didn't feel right. Going "Navy" seems to be the best way to me, since you can get most of the strength and stuff later, but the repair/upgrade/tech stuff is just so handy, especially in the beginning.Gigabyte P35-DS3L with a Q6600, 2GB Kingston HyperX (after *3* bad pairs of Crucial Ballistix 1066), Galaxy 8800GT 512MB, SB X-Fi, some drives, and a Dell 2005fpw.

BTW TDB, I was inspired to crank up Deus Ex again last night - surround only works at 1920x480 (dx7 limitation?), and at that res there are some rather rainbow-like effects with (I guess) trilinear or anisotropic filetering turned on, at sharp angles on occasion. I still prefer this to single screen at higher res. though!

edit: oh yeah, FAA works fine (and you need it at 1920x480!) with this game - no problems/artefacts related to the algorithm at all. Which is nice.Last edited by GNEP; 26 November 2002, 06:40.DM says: Crunch with Matrox Users@ClimatePrediction.net
