Happy Friday everybody! So I'm about to build a gaming PC for one of my friends. He's been playing games on consoles his whole life, but has decided to take a leap of faith and start over with a mouse and keyboard. He's a big fan of Action/ FPS and he's all about visuals, and has a bit of ADD so I'm steering him towards the more action oriented games. Below is a list of games that I recommended to him, please leave feedback along with your suggestions!
The PC itself: AMD Phenom II x4 960T, ASUS M5A97 AM3+ mobo, Sapphire 7850 GPU, 8GB RAM, Win7 x64. He will be playing on his 1080p 60" DLP TV for now (I told him he needs a monitor, much sharper IQ)
Games recommended so far:
BF3 - first game he's buying, he loves it but hates the limited MP on the PS3 (max 24 players per map)
Metro 2033 (I have a copy in my steam gift, which I'm giving to him)
Hard Reset
Darksiders
Warhammer: Space Marine
Bulletstorm
Alan Wake
Stalker games?
Half Life 2?
Let me know what you think and what I'm missing here. I told him to give games like The Witcher, Diablo 3, Dungeon Siege 3 a shot, he might like them. This will also introduce him to a lot of indie games....
Look forward to your feedback
