Steam is for buying and downloading games
xbox live is for Xbox, not PC.

Ok. That makes no sense why people sell steam accounts then on here if its just to buy and download games if you can get it for free off of the steam's website. Looks like there trying to make a profit off of the steam software that is free.

Xbox is for the pc as well. If its not right now it will be soon. You haven't heard the news?
 
Steam's client is free... but the games you buy through it are not. Steam does not include any games, you buy it through steam's store and it runs through steam.

Thanks. I thought steam had a huge online gaming network that was just for steam users or something that cost money. I guess I am thinking it is like Xbox live but its not. I wish Xbox live for the pc would hurry up already.

cs source maybe? Maybe day of defeat too

i don't like DoD because of the ridiculous recoil system.

I did play CS:S for a little bit but i suck way too bad at it that its not fun.

 
Have you tried Red Orchestra? If not, wait until one of their free weekends and jump in and play on it. Some people love it, some people hate it, but the lack of bunny hopping and its general slow pace keeps the kiddies out, usually (although they might have changed it, have not played it in a while).

already tried RO also and I'm one of the people that hate it.

 
How's America's Army? I played it a couple of years ago (I think the first release?) and have no idea how the latest version compares to current-gen games.

I haven't played in a few years but when i did try it, i didn't care for it.

UT2004 - I liked the original UT but everything else after that seemed to go downhill. I prefer more realistic type games though, like with modern weapons.


I wish I could like BF2. I currently have it installed and play it occasionally, but it just rubs me the wrong way. I can't stand how inaccurate the guns are. I like the support class, but when you can't hit the broadside of a barn with the guns, its ridiculous.

Even at point blank range and prone they are useless.

Yeah support guns are pretty inaccurate, especially the PKM. Trick is to just tap the trigger button so it shoots one or two rounds. If you just keep doing that you can take out guys very quickly with the PKM. The unlock after that has a setting for three-round bursts too which I use quite a bit.

I have a pretty good accuracy rating in BF2 mainly because I put all weapons on single shot and take my time aiming and firing. I still think that Medic G36 with single shot setting is the best weapon in the game... close range, medium, fsck you can snipe with it.

even using short bursts its extremely inaccurate. hell, i end up getting killed in 1 shot 90% of the time, no matter what class i play.

i have Special forces, so i have the 2 sniper rifles unlocked, i have the pkm unlocked, i have the 1st anti-tank shotguun unlock, i have the 2 assault class weapons unlocked and the 2 spec ops class unlocks.

i was thinking getting the 2nd support unlock or maybe the medic unlock next, but i dunno. it taking way too long for me to get to next rank.
 
Well if you can wait quake wars is supposed to be out in early June or something, personally thats what I'm waiting for. Enemy territory for Wolfenstein was awesome, so I expect Qaek Wars to be pretty fun.

very good...

unreal tournament isn't free i don't think
 
Day of Defeat: Source. Personally, I love the recoil system in the game because you actually have to control the recoil manually instead of just an expanding crosshair. Granted you'll still have a changing accuracy rate based on your moving speed and stance, but all the weapons feel very different. But the stock map selection is still small and there are still gameplay issues that weren't there in 1.3. Too bad the entire DoD:S team is working on TF2 right now.
