Are any of the post Goldeneye shooters good and worth playing still?

Yeah, I heard Nightfire was good, and that’s why I was confused by that video. I didn’t know the pc version was that different.

The only one I’d call outright bad is Tomorrow Never Dies which is a PlayStation third person shooter after Syphon Filter figured out PS1 third person shooters. Even the weird Zelda game boy rpg is fun. I love that Game Boy game. I really recommend it to people that are Link’s Awakening fans.

Barudak posted:Perfect Dark has not a darn thing to do with Nintendo, and if you don't own a Bone or 360 or a series X you'll probably be able to play it come september when xCloud launches. I forgot about xCloud. That’ll be worth it just for Rare games. Would own so much if they released a Switch client.

I’m really looking forward to Dusk on Switch. Especially if it has gyro aiming.

Does anyone know if Blood has a chance of coming to Switch? All the talk about is making me want to try it.

I mean Doom 3 isn’t a bad game, especially for its time, but it’s just not what I’m looking for in an FPS.

I tried Blood yesterday and I do like the aesthetics but it already feels notably harder to me than Duke. I’ll go back to it after I finish Duke.

I’ve come to appreciate Halo a bit more these days, especially the classic trilogy. Fond memories of playing a lot of 3.

al-azad posted:I don’t think Halo’s pacing was an intentional handicap for console players. The speed you move is identical to the prototype of Halo when it was an rts/third person game. Yup. Destiny is twitchy either. I do appreciate Halo and miss playing them sometimes but I do usually get pretty loving bored quick when I do. I tried to play Marathon but it gives me motion sickness for some reason when I never had issues with Doom, Duke or other classic FPS games.

The MCC on PC is really good. It’s so nice to play Halo at 60fps.

The Kins posted:Not yet, but at the end of the blog post they announce that crossplay between PC and Xbox and input-based matchmaking (ie. whether you want to play against people using gamepads, KB+M or either - remember, keyboards and mice work on Xbones, too!) are in active development and they plan to get 'em out this year. That rules. I'll probably grab it then.

I wish Quake 1 was on Switch. Is there a reason why it doesn’t get ported nearly as much as Doom?

Meh, I’m skeptical of that story. It’s not like they came up with the idea of a 3D platformer and Croc turned out to be a complete piece of poo poo unlike Mario 64. They don’t play similar at all.

Installed Quake 1 via Quakespasm and I’m playing it for the first time. It owns. The graphics still have a charm to them imo.

How playable is Quake with a controller without putting it on babby mode? I know it’s wrong but mouse and keyboard has just always felt awkward to me no matter how hard I try. It must be from barely playing any PC gaming until I was an adult already. Does Quakespasm support xinput pads?

al-azad posted:Reminder that Quake was designed to be played entirely with the mouse by hold middle mouse to move. Also Hard is the id endorsed mode. I’ll be doing normal for this first run on gamepad. Beat 3 levels in episode 1 and I’m having fun so far. I’ll be playing a bunch tomorrow. It’s god it’s hooks on me. There’s just something about these old FPS games that’s exciting to me, even the ones I’ve never played. I love the fact that they actually have level design.  As a primarily Nintendo gamer, I’m reminded more of something like Zelda dungeons rather than linear corridors like most modern FPS games.

All the Doom games (including 64!) are on sale on Switch and you’re an rear end in a top hat if you don’t pick them up at 2-3 bucks each.

The Kins posted:QuakeCon sales are on at Steam, GOG, and probably everywhere else too. Doom Eternal in particular is half-price, which seems pertinent given the recent discussion. Things are also on sale on the 3 consoles. It’s pretty funny that nothing Quake related is on sale other than GOG. Why the gently caress can’t we get modern ports.

Hasturtium posted:Quake was a traumatic event within id where two different games were awkwardly jammed together and rushed out the door after years of wrestling with the tech and bad internal politics, and everyone was a little surprised that it was as big a hit as it was. As time rolled on, I don't think id really knew what to do with it. The main contributor to VkQuake works for id, and I'd like to think that's a bellwether of future plans. But after a quarter of a century, all we've gotten is a couple of mission packs, MachineGames's "fifth episode" from a few years back, and the grab bag of multiplayer-only fun that is Quake III Arena and its sequels. I'm not holding my breath. That’s interesting with how well it turned out. I’ve only finished episode 1 and the level design is great. Is Quake Live not free everywhere now or is it just Steam?

Speaking of sound effects, I picked up Doom 64 on Switch today, and I prefer the gun sound effects in it to Doom 1 and 2. Not that those sound effects are bad but everything is much punchier in 64.

Gun sound design is such an important detail that a lot of more modern FPS games gently caress up. I hate how weak a lot of the weapons sound in Halo and COD. Battlefield is usually pretty good though.

Homora Gaykemi posted:suppose i oughta buy Doom 64 on Switch even though i never beat the version i got with Eternal on PS4. gotta complete that collection (and i'll be more likely to actually finish it if i can just play a level here or there and then put the system down rather than having to be planted in front of the telly like on PS4) I recommend it. It plays really well on Switch and the HD rumble and gyro are nice little bonuses. No brainer at $2.50.

Is the first Unreal campaign still worth playing? I don’t think I’ve ever played single player Unreal before.
