Re: Doom3 or Half Life 2?
OK... long post time =D
Doom3: To much hype IMO, and it has a LOT to live up to. Game looks spectacular even for low level PC's which makes it enjoyable for everyone, which is always a good thing. I will not dis it's SP (single-player) in anyway shape or forum, as it brings fear to those who play it, in the dark, with surround sound blaring. The main disappointments for the game is its MP(multi-player) mode. Only a 4 player DM(DeathMatch), or TDM(Team Deathmatch) is available, and will kill the games life, until the modders come with Doom3Fortress (team fortress ported) and CTF(Capture The Flag) modes, allowing more than 4 people (expecting 10-16).
HL2: Half-Life 2 - Most Awaited Sequel debatable EVER!!! With the best physics in any game ever seen, amazing graphics, and great story!!! (the biggest thing Doom3 lacks as a FPS(First Person Shooter)). This game will go above and beyond (from what it seems) what HL 1 did. If this is so it will be the best FPS ever, and set a very high standard for FPS. Aside from that, if it does (or doesn't) incorporate HL1 on the source engine, there will still be modders that make HL1 playable on the new engine (which i will do prior to playing HL2). Then the rumors of CS+CS:CZ(Counter Strike + Counter Strike : Condition Zero) being packaged is just beyond Online Gamers dreams!!! (as with the original TFC(Team Fortress Classic), and most likely the other popular mods) but also the rumor of Team-Fortress 2 being packaged just blows my mind (i still play TFC). If the rumors are true, and game lives up to the original, it will be the best FPS ever.
KOTOR2: Knights of the Old Republic 2 - Most Awaited RPG (Role Playing Game) sequel (shall i say ever again??) i have never played an RPG (not even FF(Final Fantasy)) until i played KOTOR on the PC (yes i will wait for the PC version and not play it on the XBOX) with a new story (the first one still baffles me when i think about how great the twists and plots were and how you could modify everything from just 1 mistake or 1 change of a line in dialog). It games the game a great replay value, and with updated graphics, and more items, moves, and area's, this game looks unbelievable!!
SWG:JTLS: Star Wars Galaxies: Jump to Light Speed - Its bringing SWG what should have been there from the start!! as much as i liked SWG, it got old to quick, and i think this will wear out as well. It all depends on how they can mesh the worlds, and space together, without losing the Star Wars community feeling in main city's like Cornet.
WOW: World of Warcraft - Looks unbelievable. Great Cartoonish graphics, and Finlay brings the worldcraft world to life, and you live in it. I don't think it will be as big as Everquest 2, but will be great for any MMORPG (Massively Multiplayer Online Role Playing Game) lover, and Warcraft fans.
Everquest 2: Sequel to the best ever, and biggest MMORPG. 'nough said (and I've type allot already =P
Guild wars: another MMORPG (but its free per month!!) just the initial fee for the game, but expect monthly or bi-monthly expansion packs, that you will need to buy to stay ub3r in the game, which is where they will get your money... looks great and may revolutionize the genre.
blah... more to come!?!! lol... something for all i think!?!
Sims 2: just looks great. You can start as a child, and everything that happens effects their adult lives... just amazing how that all works...
RCT3: Roller Coaster Tycoon 3 - finally in 3d, and has night, AND you can ride your own rides in first person (finally) 'nough said there IMO =D
OK... I'm finally done... gg... Can i become the Official Gamer of the Forums!?! =D
(longest post in chit-chat ever!?! can i get a title!?! =P) (BTW Brandon can you make this topic so it shows up on the Portal so we can get more people in on this topic, because i just saw this (first time i checked Chit-Chat in over 2 weeks))
