What can I say about this game but wow! Worth Playing has managed to snag a new in-game video of the Docks area of Half Life 2. Some of you may disagree with me on this but HL2 and STALKER are starting to look way better than Doom 3. Don't get me wrong D3 looks pretty damn cool but in a cartoony kind of way. |

D3 is trying too hard to limit itself in terms of (possible) options.
There's the engine that seems to be all about creating nice looking shadows with a few lights ...
There's the storyline that's pretty much identical to D1 or at least a 'creative' rewrite ...
There's the lenght which AFAIK even Id-software have admitted won't be very long ...
In short it has all the shortcomings of the previous Quake-series engine-demos *eh* games.
Stalker could(!) be the next Morrowind ... at least based on their descriptions. I for one that of all 3 games Stalker will prove to be the one that's the best.
Unfortunately both HL2 & D3 have a fair share of fanboys that are going to buy the game no matter how crap it turns out to be (and then whine how it's not good enough and how they 'promised' so much more and ... oh well anyone who's seen the average fanboys' comments about UT'03 or Unreal2 will get what I mean) |
