Rupert Buttermilk posted:Yeah, I know, Goldeneye: Source exists. It'd be great if Perfect Dark: Source existed, too. GE:S does a terrible job of reproducing the feel of GoldenEye because it gets the movement speed all wrong. PD:S died off but was slightly better at that. It would be nice to just get a port of the XBLA rerelease for the SP, though.

Somebody needs to remake Cold Winter, update the graphics and make half of the cutscenes playable even as simple QTEs.

FirstPersonShitter posted:I like E1 better than E4. E4 is a real loving downer of an episode, the guns are the most generic in the entire game, the levels are awful and all the same. All it really has over E1 is fewer tiny enemies. E1 redeems itself through how good its weapons for for multiplayer. Most of them don't fit SP, but the cool poo poo you can do with them in MP more than makes up for it. Even the Ion Blaster is fun. Also, it has the best MP maps in the game. E4 MP is fun, but it usually turns into whoever can spam the most grenades from the shotgun wins once someone gets a decent supply of them.

Guillermus posted:I don't know if they patched Necrovision, but that game used to be really buggy and overheated lots of cards when it got released. I got bored of it when you became a vampire. The devs (The Farm 51) hacked a lot of things and features into Painkiller engine, and thus completely shitted the code optimization. PCF (PK's original devs) also added a lot of stuff into it, in order to make Infernal, but by actually knowing the in and outs of the source code, made the final game running better than NV.

So I tried the Mac version of Wolf3D in ECWolf a and it works pretty good aside from the obvious stuff. Hats off to Blzut3 for his amazing work. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=omU5VsQ6leQ The dog food barking was unexpected Can't wait till this gets finished so I can try all the map packs it has.

That music sure is something else It's a shame that the Mac version of Wolf 3D doesn't have any viewing angles other than dead-on. No sneaking up on guards or anything. (Not that that came up too frequently in the game, but it's nice when it does happen.)

On the other hand, rocket launcher. Wolf 3D does run perfectly in basilisk II or Sheepshaver, so anyone can introduce nazi's to really awkwardly coded rocket launchers and flamethrowers.

"An early screenshot of Powerslave/Exhumed, found in the data files for the leaked Blood alpha. Even excluding the amusing gesture, this shot appears to depict co-op action, which probably would have been pretty cool were it have ever been coded in in any way, shape or form - BUILD engine games were notorious for mocking up promo images in the editor’s 3D mode…"

We've been wrong the entire time. Brutal Doom doesn't make Doom even Doomier, it makes Doom even Powerslavier.

(A simple instrument swap won't do, but it would certainly get rid of the constant drone in the background of most of the tracks.) I do of course plan on figuring out how to make a sound font out of the included samples and playing through fluidsynth, but I'm genuinely curious what someone with artistic ability could do with GM or maybe GS.

Where the gently caress is System Shock

Why in the actual gently caress is The Darkness not on there and its absolutely mediocre sequel is? The first game on 360 is a masterpiece. Don't get me wrong, lists are subjective of course but that stands out. The Darkness is a cut-and-dry example of amazing first game and hilariously crap sequel.

RPS is loving garbage and everyone who writes for it is a hack no exceptions. The list just serves as another example of why. Why is Dishonored, a game primarily about stealth and melee combat, on the list at all?

I can't believe GAME is so high on the list. How the hell is it better than GAME? He should drop it and add in GAME, it's always overlooked. And if he thinks GAME belongs here he doesn't even know what an FPS is.

No, you see Half-Life 2 is actually responsible for killing the FPS genre. That's why it's number six instead of number one. RPS is really bad.

Also, no UT99 nor Unreal 1 is bullshit. They're both top 20 games at the absolute minimum.

That must be because of all the scripted sequences, and totally not because of having 200 people on the dev team, hiring multiple celebrities to do voice acting, or hiring hans loving zimmer to do the soundtrack, no siree.
