Twinfinite writes "Despite their age, several old PC games can still give your graphics card a run for its money, and more importantly, stand shoulder to shoulder with many current gen console titles."
Battlefield Bad Company 2, Dead Space 2, Crysis 3, and a handful other EA games have finally had their online services shut down.
I had no idea that Bad Company 2 was still running, and only now that I know, I want to jump on! 😥
I was able to find games in the Vietnam dlc on ps3 the last week. There were articles on here about the server closure when it was announced in April
BF1943 is the only online MP game that I was genuinely interested in. Been playing since launch 14 years ago. Hate that I couldn't put in as much time to play as I'd hoped for during the final week.
I got really into 43 when I bought Bf3, and preferred it. Everything that I disliked or found annoying about Bf3, wasn't an issue in 43. Too bad they never bothered releasing it on PS4 or PC.
Dead Space 2...... I wasn't even aware that had multiplayer. Nevermind that it was apparently one of their best multiplayers!
Dead Space 2 multiplayer had been hanging on for years - I'd boot my PS3 up to see some familiar names in lobbies. This will definitely be missed!
Daily Video Game writes: "Xbox Store has just launched two new digital game sales that heavily discount various Shocktober games, games from popular publishers, as well as Xbox 360 games that are backward compatible with Xbox Series X/S and Xbox One right now!"
The Witcher 2: Assassins of Kings - Enhanced Edition debuted on Xbox 360 10 years ago, laying the foundations of CDPR's console releases.
I take the Witcher 3 over part 2, but Cyberpunk was a disappointment. God I hated Johnny Silverhand so much.
The Crysis series looks great even to this day.
Crysis was an extremely demanding game for the time. I remember my overclocked 8800GTX was relegated to 30fps.
Every game on this list fits except BioShock. The game looked great for its time, but it absolutely cannot "compete" with current gen graphics. The aesthetic/art style holds up for sure, but not the graphics themselves.
To save you the clicks:
The Witcher 2: Assassin of Kings
Crysis 3
Metro Last Light
BioShock
Tomb Raider
