Hey I am getting my first pc that is capable of playing games and looking for the best games to play. I like fps and action rpg games. I was looking at maybe counter strike source and diablo II( maybe Neverwinter Nights 2,) or other games that are like that. What are some of the best games that are on the pc?

STALKER series, Crysis series, Battlefield 2/2142 if you like MMOFPS games. HALF LIFE series is a must play also. Oblivion. I'm sure I'll think of more as soon as I click post...

The Orange Box and Unreal Tournament 3 have great multiplayer, the other FPS games listed have Multiplayer too, but it's not as good. And Diablo 2 is better than NWN2 gameplay-wise, but NWN2 looks substantially better.

crysis warhead has very good onlinemultiplayer and single player. But your PC should be powerful.

[QUOTE="Deadly_Spectre"]. And Diablo 2 is better than NWN2 gameplay-wise, but NWN2 looks substantially better.kieranb2000

I agree with that, but then again Neverwinter NIghts 2 has a much better story imo while Diablo has better online.

Don't get NWN2, it definitely isn't what you are looking for.

Fps-Crysis and crysis warhead, Stalker and stalker clear sky,Cryostasis,battlefield 2, Americas army 3 ( at least try it since its free)

Rpg-Fallout 3 ( its got a great modding community),mass effect,diablo 2,oblivion( again it worth it due to the great mod community)

Rts- if you are new to RTS games Red alert 3 is the best game to begin with ( it also offers the best tutorial for new rts players)

If you are going to get TF2, I recommend getting it Via The Orange Box. It's much more value for money.

Online FPS: CallOfDuty4, TeamFortress2, CS:S, Battlefield2, Look up other Steam engine games cuz there all pretty sweet for different things. Offline: Far Cry, Half Life(all), Cod4 RTS: Starcraft (oldie but goodie), C&C3, World In conflict( totally different take on RTS), spacing out right now it really just depends what type of RTS you like (Fantsy,Space,Millitary, Civilized)

If you don't mind the dated graphics then the good old rpgs from the 90's are a must play.

RPG: Planescape Torment, Diablo 1&2, Fallout 1&2, Deus Ex, KOTOR 1 and 2 (if you haven't gotten it on your console)

FPS: Doom, Quake, Half-Life, Counter-Strike, Wolfenstein, System Shock

RTS: Warcraft 1&2 (they can provide back story if you play Warcraft 3), Starcraft, C&C

Modern:

FPS: STALKER, Crysis+Warhead, NecroVison, Cryostasis

RTS: Red Alert 3 (if you can stand the DRM), Tiberium Wars, Empire: Total War, DoW and DoW 2, King's Bounty: The Legend

RPG: Drakensang, The Witcher (although if you have a console just wait for the port its graphics and gameplay are significantly improved although the atmosphere if ruined because of the Fable 2 look) not much PC exclusive rpgs so you might as well get the best versions of rpgs you don't have on your console (if you have one)

Let me put in another recommendation for Company of Heroes. I know for a fact that I pretty much bought this PC of mine to play COH with a friend. I love WW2, and coupled with it being a fairly good RTS (yeah, when everyone was playing Counter Strike back in the day, I stuck with the Starcraft crowd) that was a huge selling point for me. With settings turned all the way up, it looks fantastic for a game out a few years back.

In the FPS area, if you haven't already, Counter Strike: Source is probably a good place to start. Afterwards, try Team Fortress 2. Further recommendation for ya :P. Valve games are incredibly addicting. If you see a game that has the Valve logo on it, it usually means quality gaming experience.

Afterwards, try your hand with a bit of Bioware. Knights of the Old Republic (Star Wars, so if that isn't really your think, I still recommend a play through) and Mass Effect.

Good recommendations minus Stalker, its a good game that many like and dislike, but I wouldn't recommend it as someones first game to play on a PC. Start with more polished titles and move on to the more obscure stuff.

FPS;Doom II, Heretic, Hexen, Orange Box (best value you can get), CSS (if you like realism; I personally hate it), Deus Ex (its an rpg/fps hybrid!), Halo:Combat Evolved (still the best of the 3 and you get mods), Duke Nukem 3D, and Half-Life

ARPG:Witcher, Diablo II, Baldurs Gate II (can be considered an ARPG), Neverwinter Nights (has a good online community) and Titan Quest.

RTS:Starcraft, Company of Heroes and Medieval II Total War (new one is broke but is getting fixed).
