Thats a
$200 Difference dude. You should really get a better estimate. Thats like saying theres a 50%-100% chance that the president will die of cancer. You should keep more track of your money.
Moving on, I think the new user should download 5 games, all with positive reviews, not
all BOTB, but games that ratings are high, and seem intresting. That would be a great kick off start to see what you can and what you can't do. Each one of them should be totally different. One should be a non/less shooter game where killing is not the main objective, to prove FPSC can make other games besides shooters. The other four should be shown to FPSC's purpose and full potential in shooter games, being what most people came here for, probally searching "First person shooter maker"
But for what actual games you should play, I wouldn't have many suggestions. I tried the Umbra Demo, which I suggest, mainly just to prove FPSC can be used for other things besides shooters. The reason I haven't tried many games is because I spent a huge amount of time downloading Red Shift, just to get Norton to hype up and destroy it all. Since I learned from fighting with Norton (Many destroyed computers), I decided to listen to it (for once!) and stop for now.
Of course, I wish I could get another game. I'll try whatever makes VBOTB.
