Getting back into gaming
Getting back into gaming
I took a long break from gaming for two years and shifted my focus to fitness, music, and creating content online. Recently, I noticed my PC components were outdated and realized I needed updates. I’m upgrading my PSU, case, storage, RAM, CPU, and GPU. Watching benchmarks makes me miss the days of PC gaming. Discovering an old parts list from my first PC showed how far gaming has advanced. I’m excited to buy a GTX 1070 soon and wonder what new games to try beyond Garry’s Mod and Black Ops 2.
I'd definitely recommend Hitman 2016. It's a crazy well made game, imo the best in the Hitman franchise by far, and now you can pick up all the episodes at once! Overwatch is super fun as always. Just Cause 3 was a great time, many explosions. Life is Strange is always worth playing; it's more like a good book than a game tbh. Oh, Rainbow Six: Siege is super popular now, definitely recommend picking it up if you like that kind of game. Watch Dogs 2 was surprisingly pretty good. Once you get past the first 2 hours, it really picks up, turning away from the cringe-inducing dialogue, and instead developing the story. Mirror's Edge: Catalyst is one of my favorites; the graphics are fantastic, and the parkour mechanics are super solid.
Play Overwatch (can be bought for around 20 to 30 euros if you do not get collectors edition), Dishonored 2 (there is a demo with first 3 missions for free) and try the quake (open?) beta now when you can (free).
CPUs are back in a race! AMD is making a strong comeback! Grab a Ryzen!
