I wonder how long it will take until someone makes a better FPS game than Stalker. Imo that's the best FPS game so far.

I just tried Rage a few days ago, and while the guns feel good and the animations when you hit monsters are superb, the fact is that it's still yet another tuberun.

Did the world run out of good FPS game designers and mappers?

i dont think that would be controversial since co op games rule and every game is better if you can do co op in it


E: Option A: Play w friends
Option B: don't

Yeah Stalker has perfect balance of nice weapons, good AI, interesting locations and poo poo. Of course it's slightly buggy but who gives a poo poo when everything else works so well.

Tuberun is a game which doesn't allow any freedom of movement outside the specific path laid out by the map designer. See: practically every FPS game in the past 20 years.

my buddy got deus ex with a video card he bought but his PC otherwise couldnt run it somehow (lol owned) and he gave me the CD

i played it a bit and enjoyed it but i seem to recall it being sidelined in favor of AoE2 and TFC iirc

i know its a really good game/classic etc, but i never played it all that much, however, i do recall thinking the AI was pretty badass
