Path of Neo - Forget Half-Life ...this is the true classic people.

Friends, comrades, and that guy I call Mustafa.....I want you all to forget Half-Life for a moment.

There is another game that has captured my heart: I call it Path of Neo.

A dear friend of mine who is old and senile and a war veteran recommended this game. For that my friends...he is a hero to his country...for showing me Path of Neo.

The crown of Half-Life has been stripped away as the greatest PC game ever.....Neo has swept it up in his beautifully rendered hands.

If I could die tomorrow, I would want to die playing this game. The coffin would have to be catered to make room for the mouse still stuck to my hands.....A masterpiece.

Soo....what does everyone think of it? How good is this game?

No where near as grand or as classic as Half Life.

Once you've finished the game, you'll see what I mean.

It's a good action game for matrix fans, but not a great action game overall.

Sir....yoda....every aspect of this game is better than all the Half-Life titles put together!

Have you watched the ending? it is one of the most startling finales to any game in the history of this great industry!

In time it will be seen as one of the great games...who agrees with me here i say!

I bought it a while ago and am still working my way through it. I love the level designs. Right from the start where you have to use stealth in the office cubicles is genius. I reckon a lot of games have copied from Path of Neo, namely Crysis.jasperrussell

Yes! omg....that is exactly what I thought! Crysis has stolen the idea of the super powers from Path of Neo.

I actually think against popular belief that Neo is the better looking game! The facial animations and textures are so much better and lifelike than Crysis!

OK, now you're just pushing it :|

One of the great levels of gaming - more atmospheric than Ravenholm and Bioshock put together!

Where Neo is forced to chase Smith through the chocolate factory - It combines platform elements where you must avoid machinery pounding chocolate onto the convey belts you run across. If you get caught under it you die of suffocation from the chocolate. The most enjoyable part is where you actually pick up a giant bar of chocolate and use it like the pole in Reloaded.

It is so clever how Smith gets hit in the mouth with it and it gets stuck in his jaw only for him to bit through it. It is one of the most tightly scripted moments in a game - A shame that no one here on Gamespot will try it.

I can tell people more about this secret level if they wish? It is well worth it!

I am entitled to my opinion sir and I am telling you now that Crysis no where near matches the level of detail, the atmosphere and lighting of Path of Neo. Few games do! I'm sure there are plenty who agree!

lol, dude, come on. yes you are entitled to your opinion, and you must be really excited, having enjoyed the experience, but you're making a claim its better than the Half-Life series, more atmospheric than bioshock, and better facial animations than Crysis? come on. and i cant believe you just made a claim that the lighting and level of detailin Path of Neo rivals Crysis.

i know its your opinion, and thats cool, but now you're kinda being silly, and even trying to speak for everybody? personally i stopped playing Path of Neo after the first few levels. got over it. I still play the entire Half-Life series. i've been gaming since i was bout 6 or 7, am now 21, and i dont think i've ever seen a game as uniquely atmospheric as Bioshock. and no game has EVER had visuals in comparison to Crysis @ very high. you liked the game, thats cool, but i seriously doubt that anyone will agree with you here. and i think its safe to speak for everyone on that.

After the first game I never bothered with this one, sad but true.zeus_gb

you mean Enter the Matrix? i was the same. played that a lot, then got Path of Neo and was like meh, boring.

i seriously doubt that anyone will agree with you here. and i think its safe to speak for everyone on that.

You were saying?

I for some reason actually though EtM was cool, except the driving bits and the flying bits (oh the horror).

Except it ran like crap on both machines I tried it on, going into slow-mo took me down into around 15 FPS :P. I was going to install it on the new PC, but I thought "nah".

He was already pushing it by declaring that Path of Neo is a better game than Half-Life.... :|

The first levels suck.

After an hour or so, when you unlock more powers, it becomes a pretty good game.

I love the fighting, you have really kick-ass combos.

The graphics are bland, physics good, music... meh... and voice acting bad. And the story is weird. It seems more like an in-joke (for example the ludicrous ending or the cinema fight), and at times it looks like some sort of design experiment. You get to fight against ninja ants inside an Escher painting lawl:|

It's not a serious game, it's an excuse for an awesome fighting system.

Why is everyone so happy to accept that he is entitled to his opinion? His opinion is silly. Very, very silly. Silly people do not deserve opinions. Especially when he brings up Half Life. Half Life. I'm all for this subjectivity crap and all that each to their own nonsense, and sometimes I even pretend that other peoples' opinions matter... but really. Really. This has gone too far, now. You've crossed the line. Half Life, man. You have crossed the line.

I've never played the game, because it always struck me as some mediocre consolised fighting game. I used to like games like that. When I was eight.

I watched the GameSpot video review just now and it does not look very impressive. It looks like a button mashing bore. It might have some good stuff in there, but I don't like having to sift through the crap to get to the bits worth playing.

That said, I'm toying with the idea of buying it for PS2. I've already spent more on food today than the game costs, and I've only had one meal. But I don't know... it looks kinda bad.

For some reason, I've always hated games that are based on movies. Actually, I can't think of anything I hate more than games that are based on movies.

Well, ok, you got me. I admit I did like a couple of Star Wars games some years ago. But that was a long time ago. I was young and naive. :oops:

Well some things just work. The Cronicles of Riddick, Alien vs Predator 2 and KOTOR come to mind. While I do agree most games based on movies are terrible and one such game is definitely Path of Neo.

The crown of Half-Life has been stripped away as the greatest PC game ever.....Neo has swept it up in his beautifully rendered hands.

biggest_loser

LOL

The day a FPS or Path of Neo becomes declared greatest PC game ever is the day I quit PC gaming

I give Path of Neo 7.5/10

Even though I prefer Path of Neo over Half Life (because for me TPS>>>FPS), I still say Half Life is the better game

Yes! omg....that is exactly what I thought! Crysis has stolen the idea of the super powers from Path of Neo.

biggest_loser

What's wrong with you? The graphics are like Half Life 1 !

And the idea of super powers was stolen from Jedi Knight

Sounds to me like somebody is having a private joke...F4ll3n_1

with the biggest_loser it's hard to tell. He's like this ALL the time.

Hello Kitty Island of Adventure is better than Half Life1 & 2.gozalo

Yes! Yes it is! I have actually played through it - its better than HL but its still not on par with Path of Neo...

have you experienced the heart racing tension of the office scene? Or the spirtual awareness of the Dojo training? Breathtaking! Don't even get me started on the secret factory level. I think I mentioned it briefly earlier.

Hmmmmmmmm better than Half Life 2? rivals Crysis in terms of graphics? OMGEEEEEEEEEEE I JUST POOPED MYSELF!!!!!! no not really i dont like the matrix and i doubt ill ever play this game but the biggest losers opinion is interesting.

You and Gonzalo are the homosexual equivalent of the ultimate videogame losers. If you actually believe half of what you are saying, than you don't deserve a quarter of my attention.

lol this thread is pure 100% sarcasm... So no need to throw around a remark that pertains to a human being loving another human being BUT he's of the same sex.. and then put it in the same category as a looser..

Ahhh its past 2 in the morning and Biggest Loser starts posting his posts. mrbojangles25

I thought you said something about living on the West coast once? It isn't even quite 2:00 AM here, and I'm in Florida under eastern time.

I used to think better of you TCLonelynight

LOL, after this introduction you made, I have to try this game now.hamidious

Make sure you don't miss the secret "chocolate" level that everyone else here on this thread seems to of missed. It's weird how these things can be missed if your not looking hard enough. I started playing through this game again yesterday and I tell you it's BETTER! the 5th time through. I see it like this - When a game is as Genius as this, it's just too good for people to appreciate when it comes out, it takes a couple of years before you can look back and say, "ahhhhhh yeahhhhh, I get it now!"
