Well, as some have said, Team Fortress 2 or Left 4 Dead are enormously fun to play with someone you know, regardless of preferred genre. Borderlands is pretty fun for a while too, but gets rather bland and monotonous, whether you're into the RPG or FPS elements of it.natural20 said:I'm a table-top and console RPG player... and my boyfriend is into PC FPS games. What are some good games we could play together and both enjoy?
If I had to pick one game that would greatly appeal to both of you, it'd be APB (All Points Bulletin).
It's a free to play MMO slated for some time this summer/fall that mixes, essentially, the best of MMORPG games and 3rd/1st person GTA-esque shooters. It can't provide immediate satisfaction (as it's not out yet), but I'd bet good money it'll fit the bill for both of you when it comes out.
Oh, and welcome to the Escapist! Enjoy your stay.
