Please Tell me about some good pc games

Since I have upgraded my computer I can think about running those newer games now, so please recommend me some good pc games.

I like action/adventure and sports games a lot. I dont like strategy games or fps games that much.
I havent been able to run anything released after gta3. So that should be the release date criteria for some new /good games .

Thanks in advance.

Hey if you want some action, try Max Payne, and if you download the mods you´ll have a lot of fun,
really, nice graphics, storytelling, action.
I´ll recomend it.

Re: Please Tell me about some good pc games

Mafia
Hitman 2
Splinter Cell
Outcast (old)
MDK 1&2 (old)
Metal Gear Solid (old)
Severance (old)

They're the good action/adventures I can think of on PC other than Max and GTA3/VC.

Re: Please Tell me about some good pc games

First of the newest game that might interest you is Jedi Academy, that might be a good buy.

1.Mafia is a CLASSIC buy it ASAP
2. Splinter cell is good stealth game.
3. Gothic 2 is also good adventure rpg.
4. MGS2 Substance (if you have a gamepad) is great.

Re: Please Tell me about some good pc games

even though jedi knight jedi academy is technically fps... u barely even use first person mode, just run around the levels with lightsaber mode, in fact, it plays a lot more like soul reaver than a normal fps not quite as many puzzles but whatever

Prafull. you might want to check out The Temple of Elemental Evil. It is brand new and is a Dungeons and Dragons game. It is set in the GrayHawk universe. It uses the latest version of the D&D rules, version 3.5. I just picked it up and looks really really good. So you may want to consider it as well. It is for the PC.
sincerely,
sx/amiga

that could be one of the mad insane understatements of the year...'some' adventuring...you'll spend more time adventuring then you will doing the quests...still a great game though...

I also second that...i beat that game...Undying is a great FPS that is demented and not too action'y...you can pick up a lot of these in the bargain bin...and UT2k3 is a must in my book...just because there are so many great mods about to spurt out...but wait for 2k4 if your considering it...its 'supposed' to come out in like 2 weeks and it includes 2k3
