I just watched the e3 trailer thing to this game and man does it look sweet, i mean bullet time, jump kicking people, and other stuff. I mean, if you havent watched it, i suggest you do:

I'm looking forward to this now as much as HL2. Release date is march 1st.


half life 2 content: So i start my computer and try to log onto steam which has worked before because i have it set for offline mode, but alas suddenly it wants me to relogin by no act of my own. Thats stupid seeing as the steam servers are filtered by my internet.
 
I can't wait. I'd buy it ASAP, if I wasn't planning on buying multiple computer parts.

BTW, this should be in General Gaming.
 
lets see.

small, darkish corridors

sci-fi

scary little girl from the ring..

doom3 look a like ?
 
yes i saw it and it freaked me out this game is going to blow away doom 3 .

But dude, it's Monolith.
 
This game looks amazing. I'd have to agree that it might get best FPS of the year.
 
Doesn't look too original, but it looks like it'd be fun to play :)

I saw them once, really light white/gray colour... no ammo counters or health bars though... but.. its a demo :)
 
Quite frankly i wouldnt mind no crosshairs. I used no crosshairs in DoD, i can do it again. It adds realism, and a certain satisfaction with every kill..
btw, the game looks amazing. Can't wait.
 
This video is really really really old. And there have been about 3 posts on this game. 1 being mine. This is also the half-Life 2 forum. There is a General Games forum. Not to be an ass but come on, its been posted many times before.

On the other hand, game looks insane preordering asap.
 
Cheat shot at making this post related to HL2 in some way ;).

Anywho, I dont really give a damn about FEAR. Yeah, it looks OK, but I'm sick-to-death of Bullet Time and typical "OMG LOOK AT TEH GRAPHIX AND EFFECTS :O:O:O:O".

STALKER will take FPS of the year.

FEAR makes doom 3 cry in everyway i feel. yes Doom 3 was great but fear is the next level. Looks like it has a good story also.

ehh.. its a bit of a tired plot.. i mean, experiment gone wrong, terrorists/conspiracy, shootouts with elite forces.. but where they can make it work is in execution, and thats what we'll have to wait for

They usually remove the HUD and crosshairs for videos, css did it

So far, it looks alright but the guns and sounds are a bit lame

I agree...I also can't stand the constant bob of the weapons and the annoying way the player moves. :|

Yeah, but Monolith created a really catchy acronym, so who cares?
 
Wow. That was pretty nice, but the realism factor was kind of...well..off. Those two camo guys got shot a lot before they died.

Also, scary games are not my strong spots. I don't yell out like Mesh, but mentally, it f*cks me up. That looked...really scary....very creepy.

you should see some of the very early hl beta movies.. the sounds in that would make you.. very puzzled lol
 
that girl of the ring made me unsure of sleeping with a tv in my room
 
The game still looks meh, nothing special about it. Seems like another solo fast paced mindless shot-em-up game, with a pathetic possible attempt at squad combat which is gaurenteed to fail.
 
Doom 3 + The Ring + Metal Gear Solid = F.E.A.R

Looks interesting.
 
I hope they develop on the broody and spooky atmosphere that was hinted at in the clip. Some of the scenes were genuinley chilling (well - the ones with the evil 'Ring' girl) Mixing up the pace between all out action and tense moments of uneasy silence/shocks could work really well.

The weapons look and sound suitably meaty and I like the way the enemy react to being shot (you can almost feel the bullets hitting home :)) Nice to see bullet time used well in a FPS too.

Top of the 'fps wanted' list \o/
 
Did anyone notice that the guy didnt reload his guns once through the whole demo?
Was I just not looking when he reloaded er what?

But then again..its just a demo so meh.

It does have some interesting scary parts/ interesting creatures, but Im not gonna get excited over it yet...
 
When the player met that other friendly, I almost had to laugh. The guy's dialogue is HORRIBLE. He used foul language in ways that didn't even sound natural. They are obviuosly trying too hard to make the game "adult oriented" and they forgot to make the characters speak like real people. I don't quite remember what he said but it was probably near the middle of the video. Anyway, that alone turned me off to the game.
 
yea he reloads, it reloads really really fast, like less than a second fast. Yea, that guy yells "get off my dick about it." pretty cute. I realize the game is a shoot 'em up, but isnt HL also? Just with a story, and this one looks like it has potential.

I think it was well delievered, i was watching i was thinking, this looks cool but im only 1/3 through the movie, can it really be shooting for like 10 minutes, then the cracking on the radio intrigued me, then when i saw the girl in the elevator i was hooked till the end.


Is there a video for stalker ive heard about it, havent seen anything yet.
 
the AI looks impressive
not to mention the graphics
upgrade anyone?
 
I just hope they focus on the suspense aspect just as much as the action. Mindless shooting is fun to a point, but I hope it's not just an endless stream of enemies as I fear it will be from the video. I really hope they have lots of sneaking around getting spooked by little ghost girls and such.

I personally refuse to upgrade until TES: Oblvion comes out. :E
 
The creepy girl with long black hair is a very common mythological asian monster. It has become rather popular recently. its been used in the ring movies, the juon movies, tale of 2 sisters, and like 20 other asian movies... but with good reason. Its a formula that works.

There's just nothing scarier than creepy long black hair, the ability to laugh at the laws of physics, and the tendency to kill you with their thoughts.

Sounds like your average (pissed-off-because-my-boyfriend-cheated-on-me) girl to me

one answer that clip was from an alpha build ..........
 
I wish there was a game that dropped crosshairs altogether and used iron sights instead.
Yes, I'm a realism junkie.

Anyway, this game never looked over-special to me, much more interested in S.T.A.L.K.E.R.

Riddick used laser sights rather than a crosshair. Good enough? :p
