Hello JVC,
I must agree with you; the gameplay in Call Of Duty: Black Ops II was great, but the storyline was lacking; kinda felt the same way about Black Ops, when I started to get into it...I think the last, best Call of Duty title was two. After that, they all just feel like the same game.
I've heard great things about Ghost Warrior 2, so I was thinking of giving that a shot. I attempted to play Crysis 3; my system chocked on low frame rates, made me sad, so I decided to wait on playing it for a while...most likely until I impulse buy a better graphics card, that I didn't need in the first place, because I've become a graphics snob, sadly. :-/
I wouldn't be too worried about zombies, either. From what I remember, the original was amazing enough to leave a lasting impression.
Hey, don't mention it! Fellow gamers have to help each other out, you know, with the whole "dying PC Gaming" period going on...heh, makes me laugh. I don't think PC gaming will ever die, especially because it evolves to quickly for a market that requires quick changes and vast improvements.
