I was just noticing that I was one away. Alas......I am unable to think of anything to post ..... Wait a minute.... (w00t)

Well, it's a comparison between console shooters and PC shooters. So mentioning the l33t PC shooters puts you in a particular camp I think :D

Coop in Quake 3? I never cared for Quake 3, because it was an MP only game. As a result, any mods that would have been made for it would have been completely ignored. I was to engaged in Half-Life as well to probably really care. I also didn't care much for Quake. I much preferred Duke Nukem 3D which had a lot of atmosphere and humour, and a bit more coherent and interactive of a game IMO. I never cared much for the Quake games...but hopefully Quake IV will be more up to my liking. I did play Doom 6 years later MP in our computer lab....but we also played Quake MP which is a lot better. Although a friend of mine got me playing Duke Nukem Coop with him...and we've just finished Episode 3 :D Just have the new Episode IV, which I actually never played before.

My top 3 FPS games would likely be Half-Life, Deus Ex, and Half-Life 2. Honorable mention goes to Call of Duty.

That is the plan.

I enjoyed Doom because it was unlike anything I had every really experienced before. Plus my cousin had a serial link so we'd connect our computers and play DM or Coop. Fun fun fun.

Hmmmmmmmm..... Meh, I'll probably still get it despite the shortcomings you mention. Every game experience allows for additional ideas for my game :D

On topic you want eh? Console shooters are teh suck, and PC shooters r0x0r my b0x0rs

I wonder if once a month is too long of a time span. Establishing a narrower timespan would help it become routine.

I think that's one of the problems I'd have if I was ever a producer...or perhaps even a lead designer. I'm such a softy

Tsk Tsk. Maybe the model is way way way way better? :D Sometimes a story could revolve around a male protagonist....but somehow I doubt this is the case.

Did it get cut? I wonder if it was too demanding on the art resources. Still, even Ultima allowed for different sex Avatars (although I believe this disappeared towards the end of the series).

You had to be a male?

As long as they can find a way to limit the exploitation of the use system, I'm sure I could support it. I don't want people casting "light" simply for the sake of getting Fire Magic points or something. Although I hear the Fable implementation wasn't too bad.

One thing I was hoping about the consoles (particularly the XBox) is that people would push the envelope a bit more for games graphics wise, so that those with phat hardware could play it on the PC, and those that didn't want to shell out the bling could still play it on the XBox. It hasn't happened to the extent that I wanted, but I do think that games like Chaos Theory look really, really nice.

What would it take to be in a Fanout project? What sort of tools and stuff are there for modding the game and whatnot?

Nay, it would be so great it would be the game by which all others would be judged! "This sports game is really cool....I love the sweet, free chosing beginning of games.....and getting to love the players in the middle, culminating with a grand finale where there are no questions left unanswered!"

why don't you like the ladies?!unless you a woman of course. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> What on earth would being a woman have to do with NOT liking a female character????

Hmmm...as much as I am a fan of choice....I do think there are inherent constraints that should be recognized.

6800 Ultras are out now though aren't they? I wonder what will be out when the consoles finally arrive. Plus, it'd just be silly for them to not find ways to take this uber technology and make it work in a PC box. Especially when there are wackos that don't mind spending $1200 on an SLI PCI-e system so that he can get 400 FPS instead of 380 FPS.

Hmmmmmm......so how can we work Darque's love story middle into our male, testosterone packed beginnings and end Ender?

Words best left unsaid.

I was disappointed to hear it wasn't at E3. Although perhaps this means they want to just work on the game rather than building up hype for a game that could be delayed again. Sounds like a neat idea, and I like how it's plans are to support 64-bit archetictures out of the box. EDIT: F.E.A.R. also looks cool too! Acronym games for teh win!

One of the jokes that humans say in WoW if you type in "/silly" is great. It's a bit paraphrased, but it goes something like this:

I guess that would make sense. Tell others to create more threads, so that you have more threads to post in without creating any yourself. Vewy vewy sneaky!
