Doom 3 with config set to manually 1080p lookd great. I havent got far since im just playing getting it to work at anything other than 480p.

 

[NightHawkRMX]

Wow 16x aa looks good too.

Does anyone know if GTA3 works on windows 10 with a modern PC? I dont want to sink $10 in a game if it wont work.

It should work. Have you tried running in "Compatibility Mode" for Windows XP ?

ELSE, if you are using the retail disk based version of the game, the problem is likely due to MS's Win10 DRM Blocking malware. GTA 2 and 3 both used SafeDisk copy protection.

( Vice City ('02) was released after GTA3 ( '01 ). Vice City and San Andreas both use SecuROM copy protection. But if you bought this game on STEAM, then it should work on Windows 10 OS, IMO.

Tried all the compatability settings. It runs fine and looks ok, but it just doesnt load missons.

Well, they call it doom for a reason.

DOOM 3 still looks stunning. I've replayed this Game again and again, and it's very addictive as well.

I've heard about this game. DSOGaming has been covering articles on this title. I don't play such type of games, but I've read very positive reviews and Feedback for this Game. STEAM reviews are also very positive. I think this game has got potential.

Gameplay looks pretty fun, but sadly I cannot play 2-D, or side scrolling games.

Why not?

 

[Deleted member 2731765]

Why not?

I don't have the answer, lol, but I'm only comfortable with First or third-perspective games. Don't know, but 2D games aren't my taste. By the way, can we use Mouse as well as Keyboard easily in such type of games ?

I once tried tried playing Darkest Dungeon, but after few hours of gaming, I was not feeling that much comfortable with the action/shooting mechanics. 3D games are okay for me.

While I haven't played to many side scrolling games one of my favorites is Oddworld: Abe's Oddysee. They remade it for PC as well and is only $3 which is fantastic.

Oddworld: Abe's Oddysee® on Steam

Selected by the fickle finger of fate, Abe™, floor-waxer first class for RuptureFarms, was catapulted into a life of adventure when he overheard plans by his boss, Molluck the Glukkon™, to turn Abe and his fellow Mudokons into Tasty Treats as part of a last-ditch effort to rescue Molluck's...

May need to check my Steam wallet when I get home...

Kingdom Hearts is my all-time favorite game under that would be Psychonauts, NFS: Underground 2 & Pokemon Yellow

 

[Deleted member 2731765]

Oddworld: Abe's Oddysee is a pretty OLD PC game. I think there is a free DEMO to try out as well.

Is half-life 2 really worth all of the hype?

BTW, steam refunded my money from GTA3.

From what I remember it was pretty good although that was more then a few few years ago on a old Steam account I can't get back (forgot email/password/etc) but that was on Win7 although I can't imagine it not working on Win10.

What types of games do you like? Maybe we can make a better recommendation?

If you ever played the original Homeworld (RTS) and liked that the remake is really good.

YES.....Without any shadow of a doubt. HL2 is one of the BEST first person shooters ever made for the PC. That's not an exaggeration though. There is hype surrounding it, but it's a very good game.

Great VOICE acting, facial animations, textures, and cool graphics .

 

[WildCard999]

@remixislandmusic, Did you ever play the first Half-Life? The other games that tied into it such as Blue Shift was really good.

 

[NightHawkRMX]

I haven't played half-life 1 or 2, but I do play TF2 which is based on the same source engine.

I mainly play TF2, doom3 and GTAv nowadays. If its anything like any of these ill enjoy it.
I also like some racing games.

 

[Deleted member 2731765]

Even BLACK MESA is an excellent Game.

Why is fear $54 still? Its so old and doesnt even have multiplayer anymore. And yet it still cost more than far cry, Crysis and half-life 2 combined.

 

[WildCard999]

If you liked GTA games then you may want to look into Saints Row, it's similar in gameplay but a bit more over the top but the character creation is pretty good and the newer ones are coop. I have the 3rd & 4th game.

I think because it includes all the FEAR games (and possibly DLC?) into a single package but I agree, way too much.

Just got hl2.

Guy told me to jump out windows now im stuck...
