After a long time of playing video games and seeing some stuff on gamespot I relised 1. I have 50 dollars 2. I can buy a game 3. I don't know what to buy. Now I WAS going to buy Rachet Deadlock which is coming out soon (Also MGS3 Substance and a few other games) but I relised I can make all that money since I get paid 7 dollars for mowing the lawn and I have to mow it every week this time of the year I can get enough money in a jiffy So with the money I have now i'm looking for a game. The one type of game I don't want is a MMORPG, which is going to make my next sentance harder to find a game. After playing a lot of games (Mainly THPS3 and Dynasty Warriors: Empires, and wee bit of KOTOR) I relised I REALLY like custimzation on characters or other places (Like houses... ok I played the Sims aswell but I didn't want to mention it..) So I was wondering if anyone could suggest a game to me that has a good custamization section of the game, the reason why I said no MMORPGs is because almost all of them are monthly fees and have custimaztion, but if there's a MMORPG that doesn't have monthly fees, and a good custimaztion please mention it :-D (I think City of Heros is monthly fee but I don't know... could someone answer that?).

I acutally liked THPS3 and DW4 better then KOTOR because how your character LOOKS is very restricted in KOTOR and in THPS3 there's a lot of options (DW doesn't have that many but it's not the greatest game anyway) So if you can change your character's look that'd be cool but it's not something i'm focusing on. Soo.. want to help me out? Or you can say "That's a really long post" then go post on how Yoshi's character in D2 is so cool.

Hey if you havent played resident evil 4 its a sick gane. It has killing , puzzles and fast reaction time is a must ( some times during scinematics some one will throw a knife at you and you will se the option "dodge") awsome bosses in the game. And some things that you do early in the game can have a major effect later on. Fcukin chain saw laddies are fcukin scary!! crazy.gif

Half-Life 2. Free mods. ^_^ If not, there's HL1 (I hear it's crazy cheap) or Unreal Tournament 2004, all of which have a big 'n strong mod community to get mods from.

Well sorry I figured any good game out for Xbox would be for PC other then that I have GC, Ps2, and PC.
Does Guild Wars use DVDs like BF2? Or does it use CDs?

Guild Wars is mainly PvP and there are 3 PvP modes... Arena where you are paired with 3 random people against 4 random people, Team where you can make a team of up to 8 people against other teams (this is where all the big events are), and Guild Wars where you and your guild fight against other guilds.

There is also an 'RPG' mode which you will have to play to unlock skills and abilities (otherwise you can use the pre-set characters to play in PvP - but its better to play RPG mode first). But RPG mode is mostly a linear story line with a bunch of side-quests along the way. You do pick up A LOT of skills and cool stuff for PvP though.

Like every weapon can have 1-2 add-ons. Like bows can have a bow string and grip add-on that might give you more armor or faster casting times or add poison effect to shots. You have to unlock that stuff in RPG mode though.

But I'm rambling, I really wish you could have played it when all the betas were around, they were basically letting you play free back then. All you can do to see the game now is screenshots and gameplay footage (which isnt too hard to find).

Dungeon Siege 2 is also coming out. Although I think Guild Wars is a good option you might want to consider this game too. In Dungeon Siege 2, in single player you can have a party of six people consisting of warriors (you can train them to be one by using melee weapons and such), archers, magicians that use combat magic or nature magic. (Made up of humans, elves, and other races) You can hire mules and other creatures to help you carry extra items that your main characters can't carry. It's a pretty decent game (the first one when it came out). You might want to visit their site http://ds.heavengames.com/

I wouldn't know the medium requirements, I met the recommended long before I even upgraded my computer and it ran perfectly before I upgraded on highest settings.

I would recommend 1.4+ghz, at least 512mb ram, and at least a 64mb graphics card. Although I can't really tell how fast it would run unless I try it on my laptop and I don't have the installation discs on me.
