I’m going to college in september and I’ll be working off of a new laptop (alienware if everything goes right :whistle:), right now I’m home for the summer and I need some games to keep me busy.

I’m running a newly reformatted:  
1.6ghz P4  
128 nvidia fx 5600  
256 ram  
audigy ls  
running off of 5mb cable

I was planning on going out and buying Far Cry to check out the havok engine since I doubt I can handle Half-Life 2. The last game I played was Doom3 on medium-low settings and the loading times were bad but the gameplay was suprisingly decent.

Should I go with Far Cry?..try HL2?
