Ok, I'm getting a new game as a christmas preasent for myself.
I'd been planning on getting Brothers in Arms: Earned in blood.
I really enjoyed the demo but I just want to see what other options there are.

I want a really good single player shooter/adventure thing. no RTS or RPG.
What I know I don't want:
Q4
Battlefeild2
battlefront2

oh, and PC games only.

Thanks.

You want PONG!

Ok, sorry... with all the restrictions, my brain kinda shut down...

I enjoyed F.E.A.R. and CoD2... though, we don't know what you already have. HL2? Doom 3? Far Cry? Those are all good.

I really wanted to try FEAR, but for some odd reason the demo didn't work, so with as much as I want that, if there's a chance the full game my not work, can't do it.

I've got HL2, didn't like the demos of the others, keep the sugestions coming though, thanks.

You -need- to get Call of Duty 2.
It's just... absolutely... amazing.

well I have COD and the demo of COD2 didn't really impress me.


Trying to say somthing there Jon?
I think understand what you mean by the first 2 quotes,
the q4 demo was fun but didn't feel any different from any other FPS I've player.
And I just don't like RTS & RPG gameplay.

I'm lost on the last one though. I don't have any consoles so PC is my only option.
care to elaborate?

Oh.

Well, the singleplayer shooter thing - Ever since Q3 and UT came out almost all of them have been multiplayer games with lukewarm SP options at best. Quake 4 is the best singleplayer FPS in quite a few years.

Consoles rule the adventure game. Especially the Gamecube, in my opinion, where there are a TON of adventure titles. It's cheap too. You should consider buying one (or buying the Revolution when it comes out).

Almost all RPGs are technically Adventure games nowadays, and vice-versa. That notwithstanding, the world of singleplayer is especially dominated by the RPG and RTS genres.

And here's a bonus cyborg because I have nowhere else to upload it:

ah, so come enlightenment.

and that cyborg is neat.

hee hee my school was involved in designing those arms.

As far as adventure games go check out Indigo Prophecy (also known as Fahrenheit in the UK I think).

Psychonauts. It's crazy, has awesome design, and magnificent gameplay.

and if you can spare the extra cash (probably around $9 after shipping) import the UK version it's on a single DVD and there's that whole nudity thing i keep hearing about

F.E.A.R.

And you DO want Battlefield 2. You just don't know it yet.

It's already been said, but both FEAR and CoD2 kick major booty.

If you like WW2 shooters then definitely get CoD2.
