PostSun Jun 08, 2008 10:08 pm    PC Game question

I've never really played any PC games. I've played a lot of console stuff though. I really like strategy/rpg games or just anything thats good. What PC game do you guys recommend for me to start with?

I would say World of Warcraft, or one of the many equivelants if you want an MMORPG, but for a single player RPG, I'd go with something like Fate or something. For a strategy game, and I know I'm gunna catch crap for this, I'm a big fan of Age Of Mythology or the Ceaser games. If you have a lot of time to spend on a strategy game though, I recommend Sid Meyers Civilization. great games all around.

If you like strategy you should definitly try Starcraft or Red Alert. games like civilization and Caesar don't focus on the combat as much.

For RPG, do Fallout or Dungeon Siege. great to start with, shows you how RPG's are supposed to be.

Elder Scrolls: Oblivion is one of the most addicting RPG's I've ever played. I'd definitely recommend it... too much My husband likes strategy games, he plays Company of Heroes and Midieval War II lately.
