Col. Kurtz 0 Posted May 15, 2003 I think Half Life 2 is going to be a big winner Very smart move of Valves to not officially announce HL2 until it was nearly done. They have been working on it since they released HL1 back in late 1998. Imagine if they had announced lets say early 1999. After four years of waiting... most people would be thinking 'another Duke Nuken Forever'. I like realism in games, but I reckon HL2 will make up in its graphics, fun gameplay, good story, great enviroments, AI and physics. The graphics might not be as detailed as Doom III's, but they look a lot more realistic. Doom III's graphics look really cartoony to me, and I doubt it would have very exciting gameplay. For 10 hours: Open door, shoot monster, find key, discover monster, run away from monster, ambush monster, open door, kill monster... That first screenshot from Call of Duty... Whats the betting were going to see some sniping action in the bombed out ruins of Stalingrad? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

N.o.R.S.u 0 Posted May 15, 2003 ROFLMAO (I hardly ever use that "word" ) that first Hl2 video was so damn funny, heh even the crowd laughed . I hope there will be lots of places where you can use physics against your enemies. And the best of all, you can still make all maps in WorldCraft (or Hammer editor as it's now), no need to learn using fancy new editors . Can't wait for that game.

mr. Duck 0 Posted May 15, 2003 Halo looks good, but then again, alot of games look good... Â I never played Halo, I will though when I'll get the chance. Hmm, Call of Duty... Interesting, now why didn't I hear about that before? Hmm, yes, Stalingrad, enemy at the gates... Doing somebody in the middle of a row of sleeping men... Good movie though.

//relic// 0 Posted May 16, 2003 It's something of a maxim for 3d modelling that lighting makes all the difference, and it shows in those HL2 screenshots - some of the scenes almost look prerendered. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

hellfish6 7 Posted May 17, 2003 I'm not a big fan of flight sims, mostly because I get shot down a lot, even after having played them for over 15 years now, but LoMac does look really good. I hope they have scaleable difficulty settings, though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jinef 2 Posted May 18, 2003 I got bored with America's Army, no good low ping servers in UK and also lot's of dickheads typing dribble about owning people etc. Plus all the gear is US and you can't even play as the terrorists! The training is too easy as well, if they made it challenging it might actually be worth doing it, like in Half life with the big jumps. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
