Again, there should be a big Steam sale (and other services as well that compete like Origin and Green Man Gaming) here in a few days for Halloween. Wait before making any game purchases. There will also be one at Thanksgiving and Christmas.

Please do yourself and everyone around you a favor and download the "Complete" mod for Stalker.

You'll thank me profusely.

It boosts the graphics, increases the number of guns, and fixes about a billion bugs.

Right now I am just running from dogs, trying to pop them with a pea-shootin' Makarov.  I got my first machine gun, but am still learning the ropes.

Even though it's old, the original Crysis and Crysis warhead a good starting point.  They still  look great, and are better than their sequels.  3 looks great but they lose they open world options that made the original so good.
Starcraft 2 (both wings and HotS)kick ass fast paced rts
Battlefield 4 - now that it's been patched this is the premier online fps on pc.
Witcher 2 - one of the best RPGs I've played. Gotta play it twice to get the whole game. In game choices vastly effect the game
Sins:rebellion:  awesome, slow paced sci-fi rts, huge scale.
Supreme commander: forged alliance - another oldie but goodie. Huge scale.
Arma3 - combat "sim".
TesV: skyrim - even if you played it on console, it's worth checking (and sinking 200 hours into)  out on pc.

Get a shotgun.  Until you get the combat and controls down, it will be much more useful than a machine gun that you'll run out of ammo for.
Plus, just like in real life, against unarmored opponents like dogs and hogs, it is far more effective.

Mass Effect series (play them in order, obviously)



Skyrim is amazing, learn to use the mods (very easy with a manager program like Nexus Mod Manager)



Fallout 3 and New Vegas are awesome, but you have to mod them a bit to really enjoy them. They are a bit unstable as they are sold.

yeah and the zombie mod for Arma 3 is openish alpha, if i don't go camping this weekend i may try it out.

Arma 2 is worth the price just for wasteland and some of the dayz style mods.

Metro and Last light are epic single player games.


Epoch that's the mod for Arma 3 the Arma 2 version was pretty boss building bases on a persistent server is cool.

I always try to land an MP5 or AKS74u and ambush one of the military guys south of the cordon town. They've got AK's and Abakan rifles. That lasts a long while until I can get something better preferably with a scope.

One more thing: When you find the wish granter, and "beat" the game, you really didn't. There is about an hour more of gameplay. Good luck.

Definitely save the game BEFORE you go into the Sarcophagus so you can replay it since there are numerous possible endings, depending on the path you follow and the choices you make.  And make sure you have  Fang's decoder if you want the actual ending.

Easily the best strategy game ever devised.


EASILY.

And it was from the fucking 90's.



No game will make you care about your men like X-COM will. When you spend in game years bringing a boot ass recruit up to Commander with no critical injuries and they have 200 kills, and then they die? Doesn't matter if you saved that game every step of the way or not, it's soul crushing.

Holy fuck that game is awesome. Especially since it combines the best elements of both the Batman games and the Assassins Creed series with a LOTR theme.

The Nemesis system is beautiful, watching the Macbethian rise and fall of Orc Captains and Warchiefs.

Fallout New Vegas - FPS RPG
Deus Ex Human revolution - FPS RPG
XCOM: Enemy Unknown/Within - Turn based strategy
Hitman Absolution - Stealth
Company Of Heroes (either one) - RTS
Dishonored - Stealth
Silent hunter III - submarine sim - kinda old....
Planetary annihilation - RTS on a huge scale
Total War: Shogun 2 - RTS With fuckin ninjas
Tropico 5- kinda RTS/kinda sim city....It's like sim-island with communists, it's great.
Kerbal space program - This game will teach you a lot, actually. It's a space-program sim - don't you fucking dare let jeb kerman die.
Warframe - Free to play space-ninja action game
Star Citizen will be pretty sweet  -space....thing
Crysis - The original, and imo strongest of the series
Insurgency - Multiplayer-focused FPS. it's harsh, like battlefield with realism and no vehicles.
Portal, portal 2 - yes you need them
STALKER - FPS - get call of pripyat first, shadow of chernobyl second, and clear sky at your own risk, that one is buggy
FTL - Strategy
SpaceChem - puzzle
GRID, Grid Autosport - Racing, multi-discipline
Test Drive Unlimited 2 - Open world racing, really fun.
Tomb Raider - Third person shooter/rpg - actually a really well done game.
Sins Of a solar empire - RTS in space. Rebellion is standalone, it's basically trinity with a small expansion for super-capital ships.

Steam just started a Halloween sale.

Games you should strongly consider:
Fallout 3 Game of the Year Edition, $6.79
Vampire: The Masquerade - Bloodlines, $4.99
Chivalry: Medieval Warfare, $6.24
Fallout New Vegas Ultimate Edition, $6.79
Killing Floor, $4.99
Postal 2, $2.49
STALKER series, various titles, $4.99 each
Arma 2: Complete Collection, $7.99 (for some reason you can't search for this package, you have to go into Games -> Simulations -> Top Sellers to find it)
Payday 2, $10.19, play it (or the demo) a few times and then if you like it, get the firearm DLCs (Mod Courier especially) for some awesome toys. You do not need the DLCs to play with people with the DLCs, just to use those weapons yourself or be the host of a game running a DLC mission.

If it isn't on sale this week, wait until Black Friday when the traditional winter sale kicks off and see if the game you want is available then.

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

One of the best games of all fucking time ever forever, eleven. Fuck. I bought that game in the store when it first came out and found that it had a game breaking bug where you couldn't get into the sanctum of the Asian vampires. Fuck I was pissed.

The voice acting in that game is so amazingly good. The story kicks ass, and it's not like these shitty games coming out now. It will take you TIME to finish this bitch. Seriously, the game is awesome.

There's an unofficial patch for that one that unlocks backstory, fixes all the bugs, and adds so much it is insane. Also, Therese/Jeanette is easily the fucking hottest video game chick ever.

And the haunted house part of that game is scary.

Pilotwings is so neglected by Nintendo it is sad. But I would get DCS Flaming Cliffs 3. It is realistic, but you won't need to throw 50 switches to fire a weapon. It is on sale for $12 on Steam at the moment.

OP get X-Com.  For the love of god get X-COM

Easily the best strategy game ever devised.


EASILY.

And it was from the fucking 90's.



No game will make you care about your men like X-COM will. When you spend in game years bringing a boot ass recruit up to Commander with no critical injuries and they have 200 kills, and then they die? Doesn't matter if you saved that game every step of the way or not, it's soul crushing.
