What was the name of that Half Life mod that Brer mentioned close to the end of the third thread? I wouldn't mind giving it a try.

As a recent convert to PC gaming I can, you know, understand the elitism to a certain extent

You've got games like Civ 5, Company of Heroes, Football Manager etc which only a PC can do justice to. The best selection of indie games (sorry Falsey). There's amazing mods like DayZ or Icenhancer for GTA4. AND all the game styles you can get on consoles with superior control methods, 360 pad support, the games look better and cost less

Oh, and Steam :wub: - whats not to feel smug about :mrgreen:

Mate, this whole forum has been a nicer place ever since quite a few posters have made the jump to PC. There's been a significant drop in bumpain feelings when pc gamers discuss gaming and I attribute that all to a lot of gamers realising the potential of their PC.

Where are all the console v PC arguments? There are none, because everyone has finally grown up and stopped making excuses for the consoles once they've got their PC. Even that dude who constantly reports every post he can possibly read has stopped his bullshit, he's been forced to troll in other ways ever since he finally started playing on his thousand quid PC.

Accept my friends request on steam and mumble up.

I need a game I can play while I work, which doesn't do anything unless I tell it too. Football Manager has been my choice but after 325 hours and countless Premiership titles with Woking, i'm a bit burnt out on it now. The only requirement is that it lets you play in your own time, it doesn't constantly move ahead and will just sit and wait for you until you next click on it. I'd like a game that doesn't require you to have sound on too if possible.

Anyone got any recommendations?
