All what they did is either bring stealth to a point it was so needed it was annoying (and completely irrealistic, since once you got spotted you could just hide again and they completely forgot about you) or simply took something from another game and said "hey, it's new. Now play". I'm surprised they did not make a FPS/platformer/RPG/strategy/RTS/MMORP/add-all-other-genres game yet... |

hey now dont give any of the game makers any ideas LOL - i like to see creative games being made - guess it comes down to those that
a) are able to put together a good open source game B) have the resources to experiment and put games to marke that are original You gotta admit though there are some good titles from time to time - half life for example and half life 2 are different. |

Read 3 post above yours, you've just resumed what I said there without the "it's not good enough to care" part.

Well to be frank with you Goblins, I don't know myself. I sure liked to play Halo the first time around with the easiest setting, but I got bored fast after finishing it once.
I can't say either that I did not like the "new" additions of Halo, mainly the vehicles. But, like I said, it was really only so little that it did not make a difference in the long run. The story was also great. That's probably what capted my attention long enough for me to actually finish the game. But all in all, after I finished playing Halo, I looked at the box and began to think. "Well, I have played this game for roughly 20 hours at best. Cost me around 50 bucks. Now that I have finished it I'm stuck with yet another shooter which doesnt really innovate in anything, is not really original and which did not really give me the fun I wanted for the money I spent on it. Hey sure, it was fun for the few hours it lasted... But now check here, I have a game named ADOM sitting in my computer for ages which is slightly smaller than 3 megs, on which I spent 100+ hours already and on which I'm sure I'll spend at least 10 times more by the time I decide to ever stop playing with it... And it was FREE!" Ahem... I think ADOM win. :w00t: |

What about a game like Deus Ex. Deus Ex 2 is bad, but Deus Ex 1 combines a RPG with a FPS. Stealth and skills are the most important in that game. And the fact that a story can follow different ways was fantastic. So I don't agree with you that new FPS games don't have anything new to offer. In Half Life 2, for example, you do many things with gravity. You must solve puzzles between the shooting. This was another new aspect you never / rarely saw in other games.
But some games just add no new things to the FPS genre. Was Far Cry new? Not really, but its graphics/gameplay were just exiting... |

I fear that I been so bored from FPS lately that I neither tryied or even seen someone play all the games you mentionned in your previous post Koen...
I have that strange hability to know which kind of game I am looking at if there is enough screenshots at the back of the box with a pretty slim margin of error... And since the amount of "new" games I bought recently really dropped in the past few years I became very more picky and never even tought about trying those games. Let's say that if those games were about as good as Halo, I did good not to buy them and then go with something more interesting for my tastes... |
