Last Month in an interview with Ubisoft CEO, he hinted that the company currently have an exclusive game in development for the playstation 3. However, he refused to give out any details as what game it is exactly.
With the launch of Homefront: The Revolution, developed by the remnants of Free Radical, the question on a lot of people's minds is "Where is TimeSplitters?". This arcticle is an in-depth look into the TimeSplitters series as well as it's developers Free Radical, who later went on to become Dambuster studios, looking into where it all went wrong and also diving into their secret projects.
Now this is a great article, this is what n4g use to be. Good articles with tons of information unlike the n4g of today that's all about fanboy wars mainly ps4 fanboys
Amen to that, Homefront is sadly the closest weird going to get, looking at the facts. I hope I am wrong though.
It's a saddening affair, Doom reminded me why these arcade shooters are more enjoyable in my eyes for FPS, multiplayer mayhem in TimeSplitters 1, 2 & 3 were godly. Many a evening in my childhood were spent on TimeSplitters just unlocking all the characters for killing in capture the bag!
HD remaster is all we need, screw online it's all about that local!
Great article, l just wish these guys and gals could make a new Timesplitters game instead of the ones Crytek wants them to make. A new Timesplitters game with local four player split-screen gaming would be amazing. Sadly it looks like no new game is in development.
Sadly with the original developers are fragmented as they are, (I think it's about halfway through the article, I do a mini "Where are they now") - I don't see a new TimeSplitters game coming any time soon... At least not without the core feeling. If we see it come back, I see it come back as a purely competitive online shooter.
ELEVEN years have passed since the last TimeSplitters release.
So we asked one of the games creators if it still has a place on consoles today.
A timesplitter dev sold me a ps2 several months ago.My friend was selling something at Cex, and i saw someone sell a ps2 and cex was offering 18pounds for it.ANd then i said fuck it and told him id give me 20pounds now.It was the ps2 ,2 memory sticks, 2 controllers,timesplitters and second sight in mint condition.I thanked him and he said i worked on those games.Weird how things happen like that.I think he really was a dev.
Even just a HD collection would do me justice, .. where is TimeSplitters Rewind?
It's still in development, but it's a tiny team making it in their spare time, so expect a long wait :(
Need some local 4 player mayhem dude, whomever has the rights to TimeSplitters needs a swift boot in the toot and hand over the rights to someone who'd use them!!
Timesplitters 4 is by far the unannounced sequel I want most. I desperately hope they can bring the series back, and keep it as the goofy, zombie and monkey infested craziness intact. Oh, and bricks. Lots of bricks.
Man, I hope so. Like he's talking about here, there was some originally bad blood with the Goldeneye franchise, shooters went full-military after Black and COD4 after that, but now is the time! Doom is back and it's beloved due to its fast, twitchy mechanics and a single-player-first design philosophy. Overwatch finally brought shooters back to having interesting, off-kilter characters, and there's another quick, twitchy shooter. TimeSplitters totally has a place now, investors should be thrilled.
Heck, they should be thrilled if the company says "We'll never make another Homefront!"
IM PLAYIN discuss five sequels to games that still need to be developed.
"I absolutely adored the original TimeSplitters game. The second was great as well, but the original title really encapsulated my childhood. I’d play the game with my friends, against each other or against the bots. I really enjoyed the story too, but it was the multiplayer that really stood out for me. Games have been doing bots for years, but few managed it quite as successfully as TimeSplitters. For the multiplayer alone, I’d love to see a third instalment to the series."
i always though timesplitters is namco's??
no its not a namco game lol anyway this news sounds good for PS3 owners
played this one, but is this something that is confirmed? or is rumored/speculation? I'm guessing if not, then just add a Question mark.
timesplitters really isn't a big game most people don't even know what it is
Well this is cool another PS3 game. I hope there will be more info on the game at E3.
