Beefjack Writes: "In each of these articles I usually start by talking about a game or a type of genre that I have personally enjoyed in the past. An example being in the Campfire feature I talked a lot of about Manhunt, simply because Campfire will (hopefully) fit into the violent genre that Manhunt was in. So this weeks article of Games I would like to see I am going to talk about a genre I grew up with. Beat 'em ups."
They don't make games like this anymore.
Too dated in my book. The AI is way too unpredictable to be acceptable today. It's definitely a game of its time.
I had a good time with the game. It is a product of its time. But when it came out it was a must have game for a lot of people. I wish Ubisoft would make another game in the series or at least a reboot.
Due to the lack of modern stealth games, and me constantly playing the MGS series, I've been looking for alternative stealth games to play, and went back and re-played the SC series recently. I wouldn't call SC1 or SC:PT masterpieces, there are AI issues, they're very much trial-and-error games, and that can lead to a lot of frustration. I also found the stories in this series to be boring, uninteresting, and just sloppily told. Cinematics are also of poor quality for both in-game scenes and CG cut-scenes, the soundtrack didn't leave any impression on me either.
Chaos Theory is better, but there was still a lot of room for improvement, and Double Agent (old gen ver.) was a sloppy mess that ended up a regression from CT. But still, at least they tried back then, these days Ubi-junk doesn't even try to make good games!

Nothing. It's up to the gamers to stop consuming content from companies that they don't agree with.
Marie Dealessandri speaks to Borislav Slavov and Gustavo Santaolalla about “the new golden age of games music”.
i would like to see a Streets of Rage remake, or a final Fight Remake, or better yet, a real golden Axe Remake, not that Turd that Sega released last year. Sega failed last year. instead of advertising the hell out of Valkaryia Chronicles, they Dropped money on two turds, that crappy golden axe game, and sonic Unleashed (Sonic died 7 years ago around the time when the dreamcast passed away.)
