OK.. got meself a spanking new pc and looking to start up my PC games collection.

Where the hell do I begin?

Dont mind the genre - anything except adventure games where you have to build up your mantra or cast spells or any of that crap.

I shall listen, think, then buy.

Well, I was just thinking that a lot of Battlefield was large, generally open areas, with lots of vehicles blowing the hell out of each other. Isn't Vietnam the complete opposite to this? What with the sneaking through the jungle and silently hoping there aren't 40 vietnamese guerrillas behind that next bush?

-------> GRAND THEFT AUTO Vice City <-------
The graphical differences between Vice City and GTA III are minor, but the breath of freedom is tangible - the game starts off with the lead character involved in a cocaine deal for Christ's sake! You can use screwdrivers as weapons. You can take a chainsaw onto a golf course and kill OAPs! You can go on a rampage in a shopping mall and you can even drop a helicopter onto the heads of innocent prostitutes who are talking to police officers. It's like, not only do we get the joke, but so do the people who would spurn our tax-money in wasted debate...
