I have very fond memories of Quake 2. I remember that, at that time, I was still playing FPS with the keyboard. I played the entire SP campaign using only the keyboard. I came across the mouse+wasd setup while playing HL.

Q2 had a great story and awesome graphics for its time. The first time I fired the BFG10K I was blown away.

However, if you are looking for multiplayer mayhem, get Q3. Its a very frantic and fast paced game.

Its only good for racing, fighting and sports games. If you dont play those kind of games, then stick to M&K. By the way, I have one and it works like a charm (used it with FIFA 07, NFS Most Wanted, NFS Carbon and TOCA Race 3).

I thought the gameplay was exceedingly good, the flow, the enemy placement, the weapons, the level design. It was a very polished experience. Not being able to use flashlight and weapon was a design choice, not a logical world choice, and for me it worked well.nutcrackr

I totally agree with you man. The game might have come as a disapointment to many because of its "simple" design: linear corridors, repetitive tasks (like looking for a PDA or activating a terminal) and the monsters coming out of the closet. But if you think about it for a moment, many things are just like in the original Doom. I remember that in the original, on several levels you had to reach a switch in order to get the key. Sometimes, you would enter an empty room with a BFG in the middle. When you grabbed the BFG, all the lights went off and monsters started coming out of the walls.

So, in the end, Doom 3 is not that different from the original, which is a good thing (at least for me). I enjoyed every aspect of it: the graphics, the scary momentos, the sound and the run and gun fights. Its a really solid shooter for gamers that want an "old school" experience. Now, if you are the gamer that gets tired of a game when an enemy doesnt take cover or because that game doesnt have an inventory system, then you might want to skip it.

Though its always great to hear Civ related news, Id rather have them make a regular Civ IV expansion or develop Civ V (a SMAC remake would be nice too...)

I think NL is pretty dead right now when it comes to PC games. They used to make some great sims (I still have my F22 Lightning II CD for DOS... lol)

Going to have to disagree. The UFO: Aftermath, Aftershock and Afterlight games were absolute garbage. UFO: Extraterrestrials is the closest thing to a remake for UFO Defense. SuperBeast

QFT.

The After-series were crap compared to the original Xcom 1 and 2. UFO Extraterrestrials was full of bugs when it was released, but the patches and mods solved those issues and its gameplay, as SuperBeast says, is the closest thing youll get to UFO Defense...

Here's a pic from the parking lot of Epic games, don't look like they're in too bad a shape.

These game makers are just pissed like the music industry, cause instead of getting 20million, they get 15. Boo hoo.

So true...

You can go old school and play Xcom: Enemy Unknown and Xcom: Terror From The Deep. Also, UFO Extraterrestrials looks good.

[QUOTE="Frozzik"][QUOTE="_Pedro_"]try joining a fun clan like cobrax25 mentioned. Do you own Battlefield 2? IMO Battlefield 2 has one of the best community's I've ever enjoyed. You can find great clans easily and with the built in squad system you can really make friends. dahwnpapaya

no i don't own any battlefield games. I'm playing GoW, WiC, UT3 and a little CoH at the moment. I'm not very good at any. Tried css the other night, had fun but was useless at it. Maybe i will give battlefield a try. Was also gonna get cod4.

Well, if you play GoW, you can add me as a friend, My gamertag is the same as my gamespot name. But if you don't like aggressive players then maybe you shouldn't. Me and the people I play with have gotten a bunch of "Avoids" from other players because of our "Aggressive Behavior." Which sucks because whenever we play with other people, we usaully have to noob ourselves down a bit.

I dont think that it sucks when you have to "n00b yourself a little bit" in order to play with other people. If you like or if its worth to play with that guy, its cool. I've been killed COUNTLESS times when I was teaching a fellow clan mate how to use the TV guided missile on BF2. And I didnt get mad because of that. In the end, he learned how to use that and became a pretty good gunner. He was very thankful because I didnt get mad at him and explained what he had to do (I was like4-5 ranks above him at the time).
