Soooo

I don't have much to do today that I know of. Also I'm a bit ill.

SO I was thinking I'd play a game. Any kind of game but preferrably Shooter/RPG. Just to give you a hint of the games that I like I will start by saying that I loved Baldur's gate 1 and 2. I also loved Jedi Academy 2.

Um I was thinking Halo or Icewind Dale 2. My computer isn't super good, 3,0 mhz P4, 512 mb graphics, 2 gb RAM.

Knights of the Old Republic. Edit: I suppose my response was rather lackluster. It has an awesome story with a tolerable combat system. IF you're expecting JKAcademy like combat here or must have it then you should look elsewhere. It's an awesome game and it's 9.99 on steam. If you don't care about story or characters then I would probably not play it XD.

Also, go here before you make your character and browse the guide. Specifically main/secondary character combos.

That´s the slowest P4 I´ve ever seen. Try Mirrors Edge, I think it was fun.
Neverwinter Nights I & II ? yes ? no? what?

mirror's edge and nwn2 will not run on a 3ghz p4.

for reference i had a 3ghz p4, 1.5gb ram and a 7600 gs and it BARELY ran nwn2, but it was simply unplayable.

I would recommend Crysis then. Helluva game.

Ok, being a bit more serious here, hows about Duex Ex? It's pretty old and it's pretty good.

I played NWN2 fine on an Athlon64 3000+ with 1.5GB RAM. I think I ran it on a GeForce 6800, but it might have been my Radeon 9800 before it overheated and died.

Try the Gothic games, I enjoyed them a great deal.

If you have a DS, M&L3: Bowser Inside Story is fucking fantastic!

If not, get a Super Nintendo emulator and play Chrono Trigger or Contra 3 :>

Usually when bored I'll bust out old consoles and play through games I never quite finished and usually I'll get a lot more out of it than I did however many years ago. If you havent touched pokemon in years, that game cures boredom pretty damn well

Yeah thing is I never really played nintendo when I was a kid, I was more into C64/Amiga/Atari.

Hmm KotoR seems like a good idea. And Gothic, Deus ex, NWN and Mirrors edge. Thanks!

any of the elder scrolls games (daggerfall, morrowind and oblivion being my favs...didnt play arena, redguard or battlespire much.) Open RPGs, very interesting lore and very fun.

I was just thinking how good the other Elder Scrolls games are compared to Oblivion (which I've completed)? I might try Morrowind actually

All the more reason to break out a SNES emulator and play Chrono Trigger. IMO an amazing RPG.
