    Default B2P Opinions

    Hey, been a fan of OnRPG for awhile now. Finally made an account recently.
    I know this possibly wrong section, but I would really just like some input from the community.

    First, My computer isn't the best. I can play WoW low graphics no problem, and uhm Torchlight and Heroes of Newerth max graphics no problem. Anyways, just wondering what the you guys suggest i should grab.

    I still play WoW (waiting for patch3.3)
    I really enjoy Heroes of Newerth
    I just finished trying the Torchlight demo, not really all that exciting, and no multiplayer is kinda sad.

    Is HoN pre-purchase worth it? Is Demigods any good? Is there any FPS you think i could handle? Doesn't really have to be MMO, but hopefully multiplayer.

    Thanks to anyone who replies.

    Demigods, IMO, is crap...

    HoN is good, it's just if you play WoW, you wont really have much time inbetween to play both, also don't get Demigods. Jrgsubzero is also right, Mass Effect is a aweshum game.

    Yeah....

    Guild Wars is a nice little B2P, and you can scale down the graphics to what works on your PC. You can even borrow my account, if you'd like. I have both Prophecies and Factions - both of which I haven't touched in over a year.

    It really depends on your computer. My computer is a rather fast machine and I have really no noticeable difference when I play games off my external hard drive. Give it a whirl and if there is a difference just move games you're not playing to your external.

    The Orange Box is super fun. It is affordable and lasts a bit. I would say Guild Wars though will last you quite awhile and is uber fun, but seeing as you are thinking of going the "cheaper" way Orange Box is a great way to go. Also, if you are running out of HD space, I suggest you get more, do to the fact that Orange Box and just about any other B2P game out there eats space like a fat boy in a candy store lol.

    If i install games on the external one, does it effect gameplay?

    As for the topic, I think I might actually buy "The Orange Box"

    Think it's worth the $30?
    Orange Box is sooooooooooooooooooooooo worth it for TF2

    BUT MAKE SURE YOU CAN RUN THE GAME FIRST

    I've only got:

    P4 2.8ghz
    2gb RAM
    and crap integrated 128mb video

    The site "Can You Run It?" said I was half way between Minimum and Recommended, but can't really trust that I guess.

    I'm currently building a new computer, gunna be pretty hot in the Antec 1200 case, just using the oldschool Dell in the meantime, and bored as hell over here.

    If you're waiting on 3.3 then why not play something free?

    Since your having HD space problems then maybe play some browser games?

    Runescape can provide months of entertainment (if you enjoy it) without paying anything.

    Quakelive.com is the best browser FPS i've played.

    Those are both easy on the computer too.

    Gametap offers a lot of games but I think most of them require a subscription fee.
