Third one will be out in Q1 2012 I believe.

Demo's? Aren't they those things dev's used to release like 10 years ago so people could trial their games? These days beta's are the new demo's and they usually have stability problems. Nothing wrong with downloading the game to try if developers refuse to release a demo.

I play all my games on pc,

Gothic 3 is an old game but a vast area to explore, very cheap to buy and totally recommend it, there is a brill fan site which has the patches on it

The game I got today is a stand alone version of gothic 3 though its only worth playing now because of the hugh patch

Bioshock 3 is available for pre order

But if you liked Gothic 3 that brings up a load of RPGs you could try, trying to keep with the scifi/gothic themes these come to mind:

Mass Effect 1 (and 2, but its worse than the first by a long shot)
Dragon Age 1 & Awakening (ignore DA2, it's a horrific console game)
Risen
The Witcher 2

Looks like Bioshock 3 won't be out till later next year, looking at media updates.

I quite liked the half life series, good old Gordon freeman and the gang. smile

Funny how looking back at those games you notice the likes of doom for instance, you couldn't look up or down. How annoying that is if played now.

I remember a part of the 1st batman game on the Amiga, you could turn corners in your batmobile wow. 3d before gta/ need for speed.

Let's get 2 things straight before we continue back and forthing any further.

1) only an idiot would pay £3k for a machine these days. The one I built that has the best of everything only came in at like £1.5k and that's with wc. How's that Alienware working out for you? smile

2) I don't play shooters on console, nor does any other real gamer. I was in the closed beta and then open beta and the game is terrible. If I wanted to play a badly ported console shooter that's trying to mimic CoD, I'd get an xbox 360 and play a shitty console shooter and do it properly.

More to the point, who would install Origin on their machine to feed data to EA? There's a reason Amazon.de has like 3300+ 1 stars for Bf3, and it's getting terrible scores on Amazon.co.uk & Amazon.com as well.

If you want to try something a bit different Mirror's Edge was pretty original. It's based around Parkour and environment exploitation.

Thanks guys,

Have made a list of your suggestions and will be looking into them.

Some of the oldish games are under a tenner and well worth it.

Real life, work and OU study take up most of my time but I do like to immerse myself in these games.

Not really into shooters, though Half life was good because it had a decent plot
