Anyone who thinks Quake is the best first-person shooter of all time has never played Halo.
Quake and Unreal were neck-and-neck until Halo arrived; and considering that Halo was put out *before* the designers knew what all the Xbox could do and couldn't design for a finished product, it's fucking mind-blowing. I cannot WAIT for Halo2!!!
Anyone else stop by
www.RedVsBlue.com each week to get the new Blood Gulch saga? ;)
Just finished playing Brute Force last night. GREAT game. The only major problem I had with it though was the third-person view, it's kinda hard to snipe someone on a ledge way up above you when you're trying to look through the back of your own head.
Would I play it again? Hell yeah - it was hard on the "easy" setting, it will be a blast to go through it on the other settings and being able to use each character's different abilities and such. Plus hubby and I haven't even tried the other multiplayer stuff yet; there's a lot more to check out in the game.
Wolfenstein? I rented it, played it for half an hour, put it back in the case and didn't touch it again until I took it back. Yuk.
Red Faction is also another good one to get if you haven't.
I'm always on the lookout for *real* multiplayer games (not just a multiplayer arena-type blow-each-other-up game); co-op campaign games like Halo, Brute Force, etc... if you have any recommendations, let's hear 'em!!
PS - Yeah I like playing on the computer too, but since I got the Xbox I *prefer* playing on it. It's nice to get away from the computer. Lets me go play with the hubby and the boys while relaxing on the couch... and I spend enough damn time in this chair.
