mkreku Posted March 5, 2006 Share Posted March 5, 2006 System Shock 2 is still the scariest game I've ever played. Actually, I think it's the only game that's ever managed to genuinely scare me. It was so bad that I couldn't play for more than ~fifteen minutes at a time because it stressed me out so much.. Swedes, go to: Spel2, for the latest game reviews in swedish!

alanschu Posted March 5, 2006 Share Posted March 5, 2006 Define "started." <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Define "significance." <{POST_SNAPBACK}> The reason why I asked you what you meant by started, was because Wolf3D was NOT the first ever FPS. As for impact, Doom dominated Wolf3D in basic shareware distributions as well as sales. And it was actually 3D. Wolfenstein is played on an entirely flat plane...there is no Z-axis.

Cantousent Posted March 5, 2006 Share Posted March 5, 2006 Don't get me wrong, I enjoyed Wolfenstein 3D. In fact, I enjoyed the original Escape from Castle Wolfenstein, which was not 3D nor was it a shooter in the modern sense of the word. I'm intrigued by System Shock 2 and I might just buy it. I do agree with you, alan. Doom really was a huge step forward for FPSs. How's this for a definition of significant: Doom 3 took FPSs from bit players to true significance. *shrug* We can argue, but I've already made my opinions known. Finally, there were two areas where I heard a phone ringing in FEAR. I answered the first and it made some funky sounds. I never found the second phone. Anyone give me a spoiler on what it said. Other than that, I think I pretty much scoured everything regarding the story from the game, including the little bit at the end of the credits.

Now go play it Lovewolf and Eldar! <{POST_SNAPBACK}> (w00t) Thanks for the link. I took this job because I thought you were just a legend. Just a story. A story to scare little kids. But you're the real deal. The demon who dares to challenge God. So what the hell do you want? Don't seem to me like you're out to make this stinkin' world a better place. Why you gotta kill all my men? Why you gotta kill me? Nothing personal. It's just revenge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cantousent Posted March 5, 2006 Share Posted March 5, 2006 (edited) Anyone know how I can get the sound to work in the game? It's silent. The cutscenes works, but everything is upside down. Don't you all appreciate the new assinine editing scheme?

ShadowPaladin V1.0 Posted March 5, 2006 Share Posted March 5, 2006 (edited) No such thing is there ? Different things creep out different people. Nothing particularly scary springs to mind about SS2. There was always the not feeling like you have enough ammo, but thats common to survival horror games. Edited March 5, 2006 by ShadowPaladin V1.0 I have to agree with Volourn.

There was always the not feeling like you have enough ammo, but thats common to survival horror games. That's what so great about SS2. That sense of fear it creates in the player without it having anything that's inherently scary. I still don't know why the monkeys' screams scared me to death or why the robots asking me if I need anything fill me with dread. It's truly amazing. :ph34r: "My hovercraft is full of eels!" - Hungarian touristI am Dan Quayle of the Romans.I want to tattoo a map of the Netherlands on my nether lands.Heja Sverige!!Everyone should cuffawkle more.The wrench is your friend.
