Games 4 Guys writes: This year, like so many others, has seen a fair share of first person shooters. Halo: Reach, Call of Duty: Black Ops, Bioshock 2, Battlefield: Bad Company 2, Medal of Honor, Mag, and Red Steel 2. That doesn’t include every FPS released in 2010. Some were good and some were bad and there will be more first person shooters in the future. One resounding similarity between most first person shooters is summarized in one phrase coined by Yahtzee, “be more like Halo.”
Ibrahim from eXputer: "The Medal of Honor franchise was once the crown jewel of FPS war games, later defeated by the tides of time and poor development."
They tried to turn it into Call of Duty and it killed it off. They should reboot it and go back to it's roots. But they'd ruin it with online-only/multiplayer style bullshit so why bother? I have very fond memories of these games, but this series can stay dead as far as I'm concerned.
Was literally just thinking of this game the other week with the secret nut cracker mission and the shooting Bismarck dog lmao. Loved these games as a kid
I have fond memories of playing the Medal of Honor Breakthrough MP Demo. It had two maps and custom servers. Living on campus, I had it downloaded on one of the PC Lab servers so I could access it on any computer at the university. Joined a clan and made friends that I still keep in touch with today.
GF365: "Oftentimes, video games have characters who are antagonistic and really not very pleasant. Here are some of the friendliest characters in games where you might not otherwise expect to find them."
Talented writers can build worlds that are as wondrous as real-life. Here are the best lore-rich video games for you to get immersed in.
How'd fallout not make the list. Atleast over cyberpunk, tales , and halo. Fallout been around since what 96 98 and has 5 6 games into it. It's full of lore when you play it. I'd even add star ocean to a point.
narration is more important than lore i'd rather watch the story and characters in a more cinematic way instead of searching for notes and stuff that's why i love sony exclusive games like uncharted and gow and hate from software games
Player Investment (Micro Transactions) - as long as it's optional, but even if it is, it'll unballance the game somehow. See EVERY free to play mmo.
Two Weapon System - How can that change? You gotta have a gun. Some games you have two, some you have more. Far Cry instincts. 3 guns. Pointless point.
Encumberance - Doubt people want much rpg mechanics encroaching on their fps'. Might make them think too much. The system is used in someways anyway. Wielding a heavier gun makes you go slower. As you mentioned; TF2 - classes move at different speeds.
