Does/Has anyone played this amazing shooter/stealth game for X-Box yet? It is God of my life and I just wanted to know.

Jacob · #2 06-16-2004, 10:39 AM

As of yet, no. I may buy it though, care to elaborate on it a bit? What are your fave parts? What have you done in the game that made you leap in the air with pure, pleasuratic ecstacy? Name all please.

You start off landing in this prison and the 2nd in command, Abbot, comes up to me. He is voiced by Xzibit (of Pimp My Ride), and he is awesome. He brings me to my cell and they delouse me. (on my second game) I then proceeded to kill 5 inmates and got ahold of a gaurd but the turrets on the walls tranq'd me. There's a riot, a fight against a gang and gollum-cavemen-things.

My FAVORITE moment was kicking the shit out of Abbot with my trusty shiv which I've named stabby.

If you like shooters or stealth games, rent and buy this god of games.

(Oh and you don't have to see the movie to understand the points of the game. It's the opposite)

I made love to the disc last night also.

Hmm got a playable demo in last month's OXM...I was a little disappointed over all of the hype saying that it was the BEST Xbox game ever, but you can't really tell from only a couple of levels.

Vin Diesel's production company actually had a hand in making the game, and he lends his voice to the project as does Cole Hauser (Johns for all of you who have seen Pitch Black).

It looks like an amazing game, I cant wait to get it. I loved Pitch Black!

Same here! One of my fave movies for sure. Hence why I'm not willing to write the game off based on what I saw on the demo!

Woohoo another Pitch Black fan!

Its an amazing movie! Shame the bounty hunter died, he had a certain coolness about him.

nads · #9 06-18-2004, 10:07 AM

Toomes was cool.

The mainframe (demo level) was the worst part of the game.

I ent got a X-Box so can someone help me out here.........what kind of game is it RPG...?

Fez · #11 06-18-2004, 10:28 AM

FPS (First Person Shooter, think Half-life, Halo) and its also Third Person (Think, erm.... Megaman Legends)

Killa_47 · #12 06-18-2004, 10:29 AM

So it's kinda like doom and Medal of Honour?

nads · #13 06-18-2004, 10:30 AM

oh god.

:

shooter/stealth

It's a first person stealth/shooter

Fez · #14 06-18-2004, 10:35 AM

there is a 3rd person view though

nads · #15 06-18-2004, 10:45 AM

yeah, but only when you heal, climb, kill a gaurd by dropping on him or climbing into vents.

Killa_47 · #16 06-18-2004, 10:47 AM

anyone can u gimme web URL for screenies?

Disgruntled Intern · #17 06-18-2004, 10:51 AM

I was fairly impressed with the game engine/lighting effects. However, the story line was a bit too ambiguous considering the game is supposed to be a prequel to pitch black.

The voice acting was terrific [considering Diesel's monotone one-liners, atleast] but the game was way too easy. And short. I beat the damned game in two days.

The stealth aspect of the game was enjoyable; although a bit unrealistic.

I really liked the open ended game play, though.

Honestly, the game is worth a rental. The replay value ins't all that high, so I personally wouldn't recommend dropping down the cash to buy it.

Killa_47 · #18 06-18-2004, 10:54 AM

Ok everyone rate it /10 i would say from what u guys say i would say 7/10!

nads · #19 06-18-2004, 10:59 AM

10/10

IT IS THE BEST GAME EVER!

Fez · #20 06-18-2004, 11:07 AM

It certainly looks like a good game, very nice graphics.

Disgruntled Intern · #21 06-18-2004, 11:08 AM

It must suck to have such low standards.

I can understand being sucked in by the beautiful graphics and decent gameplay, but 'best game ever'? Please.

5/10.

That was Johns (Cole Hauser). I agree he was one of my faves.

I'd say rent it also...if you really like it you can always buy it!

beserker slig · #25 06-19-2004, 02:06 PM

it's really addictive.
i love the shiv fights.

the movie is cool, too.
"I'll kill you with my teacup."

Jacob · #26 06-19-2004, 02:41 PM

'"I'll kill you with my teacup."'

Oh yeh, he sounds hard. Who was he talking to? Mrs Duprey the Porcelin Doll or Big Bear the Bear?

nads · #27 06-19-2004, 05:57 PM

Actually, he walks by these gaurds frisking a lady friend of his and she kills one of them. They wrestle her down and Riddick(like Diesel would in any of his movies) make a smart-ass remark. A gaurd says "what are you gonna fight with, your coffee cup?". Riddick replies "My...teacup. I'll kill you with my teacup."

He lodges it into a guys chestical cavity and twists a few times.

Oh and fuzzles, Johns is in the game, Toomes is in the movie.
