Finished a Chosokabe campaign in Shogun 2 on normal difficulty. Having clocked over 80hrs in this game, I think I can safely remove it from by backlog.

I'm planning to play as Sweden in Civ V (King difficulty) next.

Deus Ex: Human Revolution and Farcry 3 are excellent FPSs.

if you need a metro style game ( not exactly through ) try Cryostasis - Sleep of Reason.

Always ask about game suggestion in TDF PC Game Suggestion Thread v2.0
This is your gaming progress report not game suggestion thread. We have separate thread for that. :)
Deus Ex: Human Revolution and Farcry 3 are excellent FPSs.

And please don't reply to posts like above, instead just guide them in right direction, or this thread will have similar fate like Games you are currently playing thread. :|

Started - Saint's Row: The Third..
A typical game works like a upgrade system, where we have to level up to do insane stuffs with leveled up powers. But this is way different.

Started with GRAW2 , but didn't find it interesting in the beginning episodes. Is this game good enough ??? I prefer GR Future Soldier sort of game.

Also started playing Gears Of War , but all I do in the game is shoot and shoot the GRUBS coming out of grubholes. [ The game is quite old , but takes toll on my CPU . TEmps reaches even beyond 96C (I7 3610QM.) , Even Crysis 3/BF3 couldn't make it cross 90C. !!! Is this game really that CPU intensive ????

it is traditional tactical shooter. future soldier is lot easy compared to GRAW2.
if you want tactical shooter (not hardcore like GRAW2) try Operation Flashpoint Red River & Spec Ops The Line.

more like a xbox port i guess. but it is shooter game so all you do is shoot. though in later levels you'll encounter some really crazy enemies. more like kamakazi. play on.

3 Years of warranty should cover that , right ?.! In case it doesn't , then I am so wasted.

I think , I have Operation Flashpoint Red River Rising. I tried to play it on my age old PC but it couldn't handle the graphics. I will try it this time. :)

Will it feel better with a gamepad ? I know that's kind of stupid question but still....:p

really enjoyed the game (yet was frustrating because of idiot team mates getting killed all the time).

i have no experience with gamepads. you'll need to deal with snipers later in the game and some quick reflexes to stay alive (berserker). play with whatever you feel comfortable.

it is kind of odd mission. took around 1-2min to finish the biggest boss (corpser) but the real deal came with the imperial guards and their arrows. i died a dozen maybe more trying to clear that last bunch of enemies. they are super accurate and once hit no way to survive. i even abandoned the game just to figure out how to deal with them.

Oh..btw. , I am stuck in Crysis 3 at the point where "Prophet gets into the flying pod and has to blow up the ceph pods. Psycho assits him in this mission however the Pod goes down and pyscho has to fix it. After it gets fixed , Prophet is left stranded in an almost open field."

Now the problem is that there's this one Huge Ceph who doesn't seems to die at all. Killed him with projectile/LAW , CrossBow , emptied entire ammo. It still shows no sign of death. :( . There's no escape either. Any walkthrough ???

Can we hack these Cephs ?? :p , just kidding.

do you have typhoon ? if no read on ...

grab the grenade launcher from the VTOL .. if you have a SMG/Assault rifle type weapon it would come handy or after getting down from the vtol run around and find machine gun ..
drop the grenade launcher so that you can find it easily later.

Now shoot at those little things that the big creatures summons to shoot at you .. these are it's main power .. when you shoot'em down plenty of time ( from behind a cover ) using armor mode the creature will try to draw you towards him .. just press space like crazy ;-) after you dropped into ground there's some big brothers will arrive to shoot at you .. put the grenade launcher to good use and then again you have to fight with those little flying things, give those plenty of bullets and when they reduce in numer just grab the grenade laucher again and start shooting it at the face of the big creature to bring it down.

BTW, the first game of TC series I've played is GRAW 2 and the auto health regeneration of modern games have spoiled many gamers and game titles .. I'm still thankful to that era when there was no auto health/armor regeneration .. I like FPS games with a challenge mostly old school run and gun but even in run and gun you need to use cover efficiently.
My Advice : if possible play a couple of old games ( if you have not already ) : like RTCW, MoHAA, FC, Doom 3 etc. .. you will see that recently released games will feel much easier ;-)
