Games similar to Half-Life 2?

[kaiwin]

Will games be similare than Half-LIfe 2 or better?

[KlawHammer]

Depends on what aspect you refer to when posing trhe question "or better".

In other words do you mean better in gameplay, graphical, sound, or storyline-wise?

As for games like HL2, im sure theyll be tons - cant wait to see KillZone 2 and AvP3

[Makaveli_786]

Yeah id say Farcry and Killzone for great FPS.

[Kiwi]

'Tis a rather vague question, but pretty much any FPS is similar to Half-Life :)

Moving to Everything Else.

[NickSCFC]

Some great shooters to look forward to...

Half-Life 2
Doom 3
Halo 2
Killzone
Quake 4
Unreal 3
TimeSplitters 3

[Kiwi]

And going in the opposite direction down the timeline:

System Shock
Unreal Tournament
Quake
Doom
Soldier of Fortune

[Makaveli_786]

To be honest I wasnt too impressed by Doom 3 graphics.

[Kiwi]

Are you serious, the Doom III graphics are amazing!

[Makaveli_786]

LOL, Man after watching them GSCube movies I dont think ill ever be impressed again :?

[Kiwi]

Then stop watching them! :)

[Makaveli_786]

LOL, I only saw them once... shit theyve destroyed my hope of ever being impressed again, it sounds funny but its horrible :(

[Kiwi]

Any links per chance?

Its a trailer proposedly created on the GSCube... doesnt say much to me..

I saw the movies on channel M a few weeks ago, they were running FF, Animatrix and Antz, 2 minute clips of each, friggin astonishing.

Good Bye

[Makaveli_786]

Yeah I think that kind of thing is a while off IMHO but well have to wait and see, i always expect less than Ill probably get so im hoping for a 250 Gigaflop processor, cell chips should be cheap enough to manufacture so they can drop in a few though, should be interesting.

[slayerx]

Doom 3 hmm its ok cant comment much only played a few levels but the graphics were sweet even on my Laptop :)

[kaiwin]

Graphically Wise and Physics Wise compared to Half-Life 2.

[SunDevil]

Good Bye

[Makaveli_786]

The whole thing about the GSCube is it was made like 4 years ago, if it can do that 4 years ago what can they do now?

A GSCube is probably on par with an 6800 but if you look back 4 years ago the technololgy was phenomenal and several times ahead of anything else, now if the PS3 GPU is that ahead of the competition it will probably take another 4 years to scratch its surface.

[KlawHammer]

My list is as follows -
KillZone
Doom 3
HL2 (for PC)
AvP3
Quake 4
Unreal Tournament 2005

And by the way, DOOM 3 graphics were mint-as bro..

[Ragnorok]

Games don't always have to shine through by their graphics. Games such as HL2 have spent a lot of times developing other parts of the game ie ragdoll physics, excellent ai, that make the games better then games with even ps3 graphics persay.

[Kiwi]

Games don't always have to shine through by their graphics.

They usually do though. The games aren't just pretty shiny graphics though, they tend to be pretty good in terms of gameplay as well. Well, at least the one's that KH listed anyway.

[KlawHammer]

And going in the opposite direction down the timeline:

System Shock
Unreal Tournament
Quake
Doom
Soldier of Fortune

Dont forget:

AvP2
Half-Life
Half-Life: Counter-Strike
Operation Flashpoint:Cold War Crisis and Resistance

[Kiwi]

I could never really get into AVP2 to be honest. It seems like a good game, just not for me.

[Makaveli_786]

It was cool but I didnt really get into it either.

[Kiwi]

Oddly enough, I quite liked the first game.

[Makaveli_786]

I liked them all but it just didnt catch on, Operation Flashpoint I really really liked though.

[richjwild]

i thought u wer about to say operation winback, phew :?

[Makaveli_786]

Whats operation winback?

[KlawHammer]

Lol, never heard of it...

[richjwild]

u dont want to have either. its a reeeeeealy bad game for ps2. i rented it once. *shudders*

[Kiwi]

It's sort of a stealth action game, it wasn't that bad, but it wasn't exactly brilliant either. Take a look at the review on Gamespot (http://www.gamespot.com/):
