Revealed: X06. New IP is New Bungie Title.

ive only played bits of psychonauts, it was pretty cool. ill have to get hold of it for a proper session.

I totally agree and also more cohesive than I did. If Emril Lagassi were to one day start ranting on about video games, I'd punch him if I see him. I'm not saying you guys don't have any credibility to discuss and critique video games, but as with everything, there takes a certain degree of qualification to do it successfully. It's why Penny Arcade comes off as so enjoyable and usually agreeable in my opinion. That and they're not conceded pricks!

Question: If Halo sucks, then what is the best or even an example of a good FPS?

well mate, halo doesnt suck.

but i guess good examples of fps's would be wolfenstein + doom (of course, our lineage must be respected), some Quake game, HL1, Far Cry, HL2, Doom3 (but only as an extension of doom, which makes it kind of hard to add to the list but what the hell), Metroid Prime 1 + 2, System Shock 2, Perfect Dark..

theres others like AVP 1 + 2, but their quality can be contested in certain areas

i always found turok a weird one, from the first two incarnations it seemed like a game that couldve had it all but f**ked it up at the last minute.

I do like all those games you mention and do think there some of the greatest, but you can easily dismiss any of them.

Doom 3 for it's ridiculous use of monster closets.

Quake for it's lack of cohesive story or real atmosphere

Half-Life for it's well, it's ummm, errr..., overabundance of headcrabs?

Well maybe they all can't be disputed...

totally, doom 3 didnt do much that was original, it was just doom but prettier and scarier. thats enough for me to like it though. definitely not a brilliant game when you think how far other shooters have come gameplay-wise since the days of doom but a game i enjoyed as a massive doom fan.

will there be a halo 4? if so, when is it coming out?

It's coming out next Thursday. You can preorder here, in my pocket..., that's where the money goes.
