Serious Sam as a franchise is just trash honestly, they're fun in co-op but even that wears thin after the 90000th bullshit kleer death.

I'm trying to remember a Quake 1 or Quake 2 mod that turned it into a fantasy side scrolling hack and slash platformer, anyone got any ideas?

I don't know how any of us can narrow down FPSes by quality when we have so many Valusoft, Sunstorm, Wizardworks, etc titles out there.

Many a time spent browsing the bargain shelves at Staples or Walmart and randomly stumbling across gems like Civilization 4 Complete, Rise of Legends, Tribes Vengeance, or Impossible Creatures. :allears:

Does the level design in the Halo series get any better? I've just finished The Silent Cartographer and I think I've had as much copy pasted, featureless corridors and occasional open spaces as I can stand.

It's an overrated franchise that only succeeded in making FPSes kinda cool on consoles but otherwise PC gamers would probably get nothing out of it.

I'm really glad that Nightmare Reaper lets us skip those skill minigames cause I genuinely cannot fathom who thought that that was a good decision choice?!

Yes, let me play a dumb Mario/Pokemon game to make my ammo count 5% bigger or give me 20 more health points, great thanks.

Otherwise, this game gives me the vibes that I used to get with playing all those Doom wads with wacky weapon loadouts, just chill quick spurts of mass murder with loot.

The platforming isn't even too bad and doubly trivialized with the chainsaw grappling hook.

I'm gonna give it a shot because I'm always a slut for more single player shootmans. I'm not too hot on playing as a Combine but judging from the trailer I'm pretty sure the turns will table at some point in the narrative.

Did HL2 ever get any mods that made combat not feel so anemic? A sort of Brutal HL2 if you would.
