El_Caz: I wanted to play something simple, like a shooter, and preferably something i had bought a long time back, since i'm not so sure Steam updates old game installers to work on newer systems and I've got stuff that doesn't have windows 7 on the requirements list.
I installed Splinter Cell, but so far, it's very sneaky like and not very shooty like. Sneaking around makes me feel like I'm moving too slowly through the missions, so i installed Brothers in Arms 3. It's much more shooty, but you need to flank, you have control of other units and it has a checkpoint saving system, which is a feature I despise in games.
i might end up installing Max Payne 2 or maybe Painkliller or XIII from GOG to give me a straight up shooter fix.
Splinter cell..I loved sam fisher.. nowadays.. Not cool.
