Halo 2 was the best for me. Every version since just had too man cherries.

Halo 2 was the best game. I loved it so much. I cant wait to play through the whole series. I never played 3 or 4.

Now I just need a metal gear solid 1‐3 re release on pc and I’m set for life

I haven’t tried it yet…but FREE…looks kinda fun…

You can pull down the upper wing gun and use it as a handgun.

It’s in the March bundle here, so might be even cheaper (these are Steam keys):

EDIT: Play it a bit. Looks pretty. 2D is hard, I’m spoilt. Also, it seems to be some sort of soap opera story mode thingy involving press conferences.

Not so much soap opera. First bit is a bit soap operaish but after you get to F1 it calms down and all your answers help boost R&D.

VorpX. Out of the box it works, and can probably be pretty darn good with some tweaking. My head tracking was slightly laggy, but got used to it after a while (just don’t whip your head around too quickly). Probably a setting to help with that, but couldn’t find it.

That said, the physics just feels a little disconnected compared to other sims like Assetto Corsa. On the other hand it’s the only sim on the block with the full F1 calendar and teams.

I’m ready to recommend vorpX - particularly for someone like you. I’ve spent much of the past two days playing Arma 3 using vorpX and am absolutely loving it in so many ways… More on that in a few days, but I’m experiencing Arma 3 in a whole new way.

This game is released.

…and I am scared to try it. I barely survived the first part.

Not sure if this is worth it or not…but if you follow the X-Plane.org site on Twitter they are giving away 5 Gladiator MKII joysticks at the end of March…

If somebody is picking it up, I think it’s still cheaper to do the humble monthly and get other games as well, for less. But I’ll give this a go, as I was thinking about buying it anyway.
