The level design was where a majority of the highlights of the game were, for me. There was enough stuff for you to need to go over to pick it up and I never found myself in excess of basic weapons or very powerful weapons unless I bothered to find EVERY secret area (I always manage to have 50 pipebombs at the end of each episode regardless of how many I used/found). Some of the open maps have excellent use of enemies, too. The weapons were awesome, despite some being useless. Laser tripmines appeared to be a gameplay element that they decided to let you use. Good fun in online, though. I want to play online co-op with a friend some time. I used to play it with my dad when I was younger. I always thought it was a good game and the amount of times I've re-visited it (and had fun doing so) is more that proof. I was looking forwards to DN:F being a direct sequel, even if it meant having the same enemies, weapons and items. I want a good, old fashioned, FPS game. I doubt this will happen now, though. |
Phylum: I strongly recommend that you play Resistance Fall of Man, I know I constantly rant about it, but it's perfect for you. It has an old school Doom or Quake like fast-paced feel to it and has a huge variety of Ratchet and Clank-esque weapons.

I think games should be more restrictive in terms of weapons. They give you loads so you can take your own approach to problems, but unless a situation rises where you are forced to use one of them, you won't discover half of the options that are open to you.

That's why I like the level up system in CoD- i tend to swap to whatever the newest gun I've gotten is. That said, CoD has that many near identical machineguns/sub machine guns that most are redundant anyway.
And I might get Duke Nukem Forever just because. It's taken so long to make, unless it's horrendously bad I'll probably buy it. |
LET'S ROCK!
Day one purchase for me. |
I hate Call of Duty with a passion.
It was good before Infinity Ward made it into the over-rated piece of shit it is today. Sign in to Xbox Live; all you see is Modern Warfare 2 Modern Warfare 2 Modern Warfare 2, and get about 40 pms all saying "u getn black ops". Speaking of old Duke Nukem games, I enjoyed Land of the Babes, the one liners were epic. |
