Command and Conquer: Red Alert 2

This is the best RTS game ever made and my personal favourite game of all time. It's one of the last games made by Westwood, who also made some cool Dune games.

RA2 has the graphics that can probably be run smoothly on older computers but they're definitely more than adequate.
It's gameplay is fast paced and requires you to use many different strategies. Whereas the older C&C games and newer ones too have slow gameplay, RA2 is fast paced and exciting to play. This is perfect for multiplayer games.
The storyline continues from Red Alert and it brings an interesting what-if story with its campaigns.

I like the original one better, but those were both great games.

But my choice is Star Wars: Republic Commando. Republic Commando was a great game. Fast action, brilliant graphics and a great storyline. I'm also a Star Wars fan, which is another plus.

Image

It was alos one the first FPS games to put in a GOOD squad based system. Insted of having your AI teammate run around, you could give them orders. Breach that door, was one of the menuvers. Silently or with a bang, either way your team mates would stack up on the door, and throw a grenade when the door opened.

Image

You could also make them take cover behind object as a markmen postion, or a grenade postion.


One of my favorite levels in the storyline, is when you board an abandoned cruiser, only to find out the CSA is dealing with these trogans (I think? Can't remember) and the the CSA is on it's way to destroy to cpture the ship to learn it's secrets. You steal the plans and you have to meet up with your team mate who went to find their own objecivt, only to find 2 of them have been captured. You free them (One the quotes is "Hey do you still have the plans?" "Yeah, yeah they didn't find em, IO hid em ina special place") You the procede to the best moment in the game, you head to the bridge only to find the CSA is here. You decide you attack they're ship and you send your teammates to decode the lazer firing sytem, but one cruiser cant't kill a CSA battle frigate, so you look for other cruiser in the sytem, but they can't make it soon and you ahve to wait a few minutes. When they get there, they fire. Ah, it's so beautiful to watch a huge ship make even a bigger exlplosion.


The only draw back to the game was the multiplayer, you could only carry 2 weapon and you had to look right at the groud to pick them up, Although in campaign you could carry 4. 3 main weapons, a machine gun, a grenade launcher and a sniper, which all were morphed from one main weapon, you then could carry a different weapon in your foruth slot such as something prtty close to the BFG because it was huge and it **** owned. Everything.

Image


What a brilliant game. Storyline, everything, 10/10

The sandbox was very rarely used by moderators, site owners and admins, it was used by the regular member to have "fun". Flame baiting, spamming or whatever, I think it would have been only fair to ask what everyone else thought first. Regardless of the outcome, it would have been a lot less selfish (because removing it like this is) and would have gotten a much better response.

Oh good god, all these old school PC games are driving me insane. :( I BLOODY LOVED RA2. I don't remember the graphics being that bad, sadly they looked great at the time. :oops:

OH WHY HAS NO ONE MEANTIONED THIS YET:

http://youtube.com/watch?v=MPlJB2Xom84

SCREW making RF3, just remake this. Honestly it'll be greater than Bioshock.

This game was sodding legendary. :oops:

Awesomeness.

Arg there was this other amazing game, you was like..a futuristic soldier/cop i believe? And all the missions where involving you flying a space ship around this city in like a bubble, you had to deal with crime and things it was really hard but really cool. I guess it could of been a flight sim but i don't really think that fits.

I so agree with you about remaking red faction, Creepy. I used to love that game! :)
I distinkly remember playing against one bot and just getting the rocket launcher and making a massive hole in the wall and hiding. I used to just sit there and use my railgun to get the bot lmfao, I think I must have sucked at it. :lol:
For me, pokemon games on the gameboy have just been amazing...how its a ginormous world and so much to do and experience..its incredible.

I'm suprised no one's mentioned the "father of modern FPS's" according to some people.

ImageImage

I've only played one or two levels of the original Doom, but I know it was a classic in the minds of gamers everywhere. The thing that kept it going was the gameplay - not the fancy graphics or weapons, etc.

I'm most familiar with Doom 3 though. It doesn't match up to the classic, but it's still pretty good. After beating it more than 10 times, I've practically memorized the entire game, so the monsters poping out here and there aren't as scary anymore ... unless it's with headphones in the middle of the night. Pretty cool plot, going to hell and all. Here are some random pictures, hopefully you can tell which is which.

ImageImage

While I'm on the topic of scary games, there's another one that's worth mentioning.

F.E.A.R.

The next game to give me a decent scare since my first playthrough of Doom 3. The story was pretty good, playing usually involved shooting a ton of guys, some scary scenes, shooting a ton of guys, end of level. With a good graphics card, the slow-mo effects were amazing, but the enviornments got repetative and sometimes dull. The expansion packs were a plus for me, basically the same kind of action in the original F.E.A.R. with another 8-10 hours for both.

I apoligize for the massiveness of this post, but I feel there's one more game that would leave a hole somewhere inside if I didn't mention it. A game ahead of its time, and one that I won't soon forget. It led to countless mods, expansions, and sequels.

Half Life 2

RF3 is gonna be such a letdown. I mean, come on, 3rd person? Red Faction was an amazing game, the Geo-mod technology was revolutionary.

Good choice Bog, I really like Goldeneye 64 too :P , Cant believe it is still awesome after so many years.

Well, My favourite game, Ahead of all the rest, Was,Is and probally will be forever. Because of the capacity of doing *almost* everything like Stealing cars, Kick people's *** and much more.

Image

Yep my favourite game, I prefer this one way more than GTA4, Because in this one, There is alot much more things to do. The only thing it miss, is multiplayer online. Still the all times best game, In my opinion. Good job Rockstar.

My favorite game would have to be GTA 4. Though the graphics aren't amazing the game is just really fun to play.

My all time favorite game may as well be BioShock. It's elite graphics and insane storyline just make the game one of the best in my opinion. The plasmids, the splicers and the weapons are just awesome. Perhaps there'll be annother game that I like more than it in the future, but so far, BioShock is my all time favorite.
