Yeah, NOLF 2 was alright, a bit of a disappointment to be honest though, too much ‘more of the same‘ and not enough new ideas, plus the stealth sections where crap, I still loved the original though, but I doubt time has been kind to it, it's not the kind of game that would age well.
Didn't know they did Blood 2 either, that was fairly entertaining for a brainless shooter, in that it's a good way to pass a few hours, but forgettable all the same. Crap AI too.
Screw your opinions, I loved that game.

Heh, I forgot about NOLF. The second one was pretty entertaining, but still not "whoa". Blood2 had a pretty nice engine, but the gameplay was a little iffy.

Just like good ol' PSO, also a Sega thing.

Aye, but No One Lives Forever was pretty good, for the time at least and F.E.A.R. is another I'm keeping an eye on. They may not produce classics, but I think monolith have developed some entertaining bits of fluff.

The first was utterly amazing, the second had it's utterly amazing moments.

Run away! A finer company for mediocre products I've yet to see. "Aye, but ???? was pretty good"
