Thread: I am playing...

This weekend I grabbed some DVD's from my friend and installed some of them which I liked from the overview...

the games which I have installed are:

Freedom Fighters
Max Payne 2
Urban Chaos
Mafia
Ford Street Racing

I don't have a gaming PC so have installed only compatible games
I have started Freedom Fighters and found it really good...

Any views about these games..crap or worthful?

I hope you have played Max Payne 1

2 is a continuation from 1

Excellent story ! make sure u play both MP 1 n 2

Same can be said about Mafia gr8 game excellent story

Urban Chaos is a nice free roam game

Dunno about the rest

Excellent story ! make sure u play both MP 1 n 2 For sure

Same can be said about Mafia gr8 game excellent story I found it somewhat similar to GTA, but i haven't played it yet, so may be Im wrong, though the cars are too slow

thanks eddy for quick response

You can play it any way
but
But i will highly recommend playing from 1 to 2 ...its got a killer story , one of the best ever in a video games series ....

u may not understand the story which would be a disaster imo

my recommendation

Play Mafia and simultaneously try to get MP 1 ... Mafia is quiet a big game and its better to play it before MP

Mafia
OLd cars-->slow ... more or less a GTA style game

Classic ending [story wise !] for any video game ever or movie

you can also use the trams and sub-way trains to anywhere u want travel try it out [should no the stops tho]

Great!! i'll start up with Mafia, once i'll finish Freedom fighters
thanks eddy

freedom fighters is a great game manish. i dnt even remember how many times i have played it. when we played this game, its graphics blew our minds off. i mean, then games didnt have such good grafix. the game was one of the first to boast of full rag-doll modelling ( the tech which makes the bodies fly upon nearby explotion). just play it man, its brilliant and one of the best i have ever played.
Ford racer is all right, nothin much to say about it.
And shadow has already said about mp and mafia.

one more thing which i just remembered, have u noticed the change in the hero's appearence. its a fun to watch how his overall appearence (mainly hair style) changes. the last stage is a killer.

Thanks Leo. I have completed 3 missions of FF and I really enjoyed it.
As I mentioned before I don't have a gaming PC so can't say much about grafixs but they are very good to me

I will tell you more as i'll advance

I'm playing
Unreal Tournament 3.
Crysis.

I've played and liked freedom fighters too. And mafia. This post brough back some old memories from few years back. :crying:

stop crying, I'll try to post some screenshots of these games,to freshen your memories.

Guys,

Sometimes I fire up my old games just like that. A couple of days back I decided to load up a game called Blood. Made by Monolith, it was released way back in the "Doom" days. If I am not mistaken, this was one of the few games that introduced the mouse look.

There was no ragdoll effect in those days, but this game's speciality was the gibs. If you tossed a dynamite into a bunch of baddies, you were rewarded with a gratifying shower of blood and body parts. You can fire a flare into a zombie and see it burst out in flames screaming like a banshee. And then you could literally play soccer with its head.

Enemy AI was good and the action fast paced. The shotgun packed a punch not like the wimpy ones you find in some games and the napalm thrower was out of this world. Storyline is crap but who needs one when you are busy mowing down loads of minions and trying like hell to avoid the rusty axeblades wielded by half naked zombies.

Comments from those who have played this masterpiece.

:gunsmilie::devil2:

P.S> By the way the sequel Blood 2:The Chosen is crap notwithstanding the improved graphics.:yawn:

I had the games but never played em. I used to play "redneck rampage" , similar gameplay as blood 1.

I had played Freedom Fighters and found it to be good. I had completed it a lot of times when I had no new games to play. It was one of the games that I really liked during my entry into the 'hard world' of gaming. Really it is not so hard..

And, I hope I don't need to say anything about the rest.

I haven't played this 'Urban Chaos', and I don't like racing games much...

My biggest problems with books and games is that i start them but never get to the end...

he certainly is....

As I have told you before these days I m playing "Freedom Fighters", I have completed seven mission.

this is one of the best game, i hve played,

yes its bit easy, as the players have his own army to whom he can send forward and himself can stay back safe..but still its a good game.

Any body remember how many missions/levels this game have?

Manish or someone else, can you explain what each of the game is about, so I know which is worth playing!

Freedom Fighters : Total action game. The hero used to be a plumber, one fine morning while he was at work with his brother, the Russians attack and defeat america. Mayhem ensues, all goes to hell, a small group of rebels try to free their country. Our hero joins them and ultimately through some amazing adventures they save the day.


Max Payne 2: He used to be a tough cop. One day his wife and lil daughter gets killed by some thugs. He gets some heat on himself too. So, we got a Mad Cop whose tears are covered by the amazing snowfall of a cold dark november, and he is after one thing, revenge. U got the picture. This was MP 1. In Mp 2, the journey of our troubled hero continues. He wins the war, but once again, looses his new love.


MAFIA: Probably the best mafia storeyline ever. Even comparable to Films like Godfather. This action game is a sequence of flashbacks, the hero used to be a taxi driver. In the chain of events he gets involved with the mafia. Rises to fame and fortune in the dark and white worlds of men. Then comes the downfall.



I didnt discuss the details of these games because, I love them so much, I want everybody to play them to know about them. These are the classics.

What about the others Manish has mentioned, and are there other games you recommend too.

The other two games mannu mentioned are not that good, i dnt like those two. I can recommend sooo many games that u may get confused. If u are new to gaming then i m making a list for u to begin with.......

Action : freedom fighters, return to castle wolfenstein, project igi, max payne 1.

Car racing : NFS 3 (for a beginner) , NFS underground (for someone who has played games before )
