Well, the fact that the Biblical apocalypse has more or less occurred? The fact that Earth's been consumed by Hell? The fact that the human race is likely extinct?B-Cell said:and how is Doom post apocalyptic?

Wow- and I thought you actually knew your shooters. NOLF was barely rated at all- so if anything it was massively underrated, and Perfect Dark a shallow console shooter? Buddy- PD wipes the floor with your favourites from the 90s. It's got features in it that were so ahead of their time they still haven't been seen again over eighteen years later.B-Cell said:the only good ones are Deus Ex and Soldier of fortune. NOLF was overrated/Meh and perfect dark and MOH underground are shallow console shooters.Squilookle said:Blurting out our picks for the best year of FPSes hey? Alright- mine's gotta be 2000
I mean c'mon- Perfect Dark!? Soldier of Fortune? The launch of seminal series like Deus Ex and Counter Strike? This was the year of both Medal of Honor Underground and No One Lives Forever. It had the first appearance of Timesplitters. The World is Not Enough came out. Quake III got its team expansion. Delta Force got another iteration. Codename Eagle. Team Fortress Standalone. Turok 3. SWAT 3 Elite edition. Unreal freaking Tournament GOTY edition anyone?? Even the Dreamcast got in on the fun with its own exclusive in Outtrigger.
Compared to now? My god, what the hell happened to the games industry?

Considering they've both got female protagonists, I'm surprised you even played them. 0_0B-Cell said:perfect dark and MOH underground are shallow console shooters.

Doom is just as much of a First Person Adventure as is Metroid Prime. I mean there is PLENTY of exploration to be had.Yoshi178 said:Metroid Prime is a First Person Adventure.Samtemdo8 said:Metroid Prime 4 will destroy all of them.....if Metroid Prime 4 is everything I hope it will be and more.

exlploration and puzzle solving take more of a focus than shooting does in that series. except for maybe Metroid Prime Hunters but that was utter garbage.
I'm reasonably certain he hasn't.Hawki said:Considering they've both got female protagonists, I'm surprised you even played them. 0_0B-Cell said:perfect dark and MOH underground are shallow console shooters.

That'd be the nigh infamous running around for keycards or finding secrets (though that was optional).Yoshi178 said:i have played the original DOOM though and that was hardly exploration based. it literally was just an FPS. no exploration whatsoever in that
What was shallow about Perfect Dark? Seriously, I wanna know.B-Cell said:perfect dark and MOH underground are shallow console shooters.
It's been quite some time since I played the original DOOM, but I seem to recall there was plenty of exploring that had to be done to find all the keycards. Also there were plenty of optional secrets to be discovered.Yoshi178 said:i haven't played modern doom yet except for a PAX demo.Samtemdo8 said:Doom is just as much of a First Person Adventure as is Metroid Prime.

I deliberately ommited any console shooters, because i'm talking to B-Cell here. That's why i didn't mention Goldeneye, or Killzone either.Souplex said:No, because all you showed were FPSes that are throwbacks to bad 90's design.

You're still engaging him? I've settled on talking past him and discussing actual good FPSes that don't revel in bad 90's design.MrCalavera said:I deliberately ommited any console shooters, because i'm talking to B-Cell here.

As for Bioshock... The game had lot of style, and story was good until a point(though YMMV), but i found the gameplay lacking. I think the sequel was better in that regard.
Saying Doom has exploration is like saying there's lettace in a hamburger - technically true, but irrelevant to the product, and not what you play/eat it for.Samtemdo8 said:Doom is just as much of a First Person Adventure as is Metroid Prime. I mean there is PLENTY of exploration to be had.
