Pengwin Posted November 14, 2011 Share Posted November 14, 2011 Not strictly about modern gaming, more about modern game design. I saw a post on another forum that pointed this out. The videos below show what might have happened if Quake or Doom were made today. These are not graphical updates, just someone's attempt to show people what is wrong with FPS's today. The videos are quite short, but they do get the message across: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C4yIxUOWrtw&sns=em http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W1ZtBCpo0eU&sns=em 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Video Posted November 14, 2011 Share Posted November 14, 2011 That was funny as hell. Even if it is true, that was the shit!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moycon Posted November 15, 2011 Share Posted November 15, 2011 Humorous when compared to certain games for sure. Still, These days, Given the choice, I'd MUCH rather play a FPS like Prey or Crysis 2 than DOOM. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pengwin Posted November 15, 2011 Author Share Posted November 15, 2011 Still, These days, Given the choice, I'd MUCH rather play a FPS like Prey or Crysis 2 than DOOM. Don't get me wrong, I totally agree. I loved Prey, and it could not have worked without the cut-scenes to progress the story. However, particularly if I've started a game from the beginning again, some of the hand-holding can be a real pain. But the worst things I find, and more likely to make me give up in frustration, are unskippable cut-scenes, and the poitless ones. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FireStar Posted November 24, 2011 Share Posted November 24, 2011 Return to the combat area? Isn't that redundant when the level is already incredibly linear? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Video Posted November 24, 2011 Share Posted November 24, 2011 I think that was the point actually Their just showing it a bit magnified, but other than that, it's an all to common problem in modern FPS. I loved on the Quake game "graphics Y/N" And the dude clicked it and the screen just went blank. LOL, sad thing is, if I made a game, I'd probably have something like that....just for shits and giggles Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
