Just checked, turns out they made two previous Duke Nukem games and a Die Hard Trilogy title. Duke Nukem games weren't bad, great fun at times, so that isn't a bad past. At least they have some previous FPS' done.

But it is quite worrying that they also made Mary Kate & Ashley games, because they suck, easily the worst game I've had the displeasure of playing on my Cube (I got it free :-P). They'll have to really pull something out of the bag if Geist is going to live up to expectations, but we've seen it with Retro and hopefully we'll see it happen again.

It'd be interesting to see if 'Hope', also on their website, appears at E3. If it's another FPS for the Cube I could finally have a bit of choice other than Red Faction II and Bond.

I think I heard something about them doing some PC FPS, but that might have been another company.

N-Space had nothing to do with Reign of Fire. That's Kuju, who are in charge of Cube Wars.

Perhaps, but then you can't blame us.

Nintendo have a track record for making great games, and their first stab at the FPS genre, in Metroid Prime, was superb. Now they're trying something a bit more towards the conventional side, with what looks to be a Half-Life-esque approach and a healthy injection of innovation.

I know what to expect with Doom 3, but from Nintendo's point of view, they've entered a whole new area. They could do anything, and the snippets of information they've given us already have been nothing if not interesting. It reminds me of their first go at the RTS genre, Pikmin, and that was an excellent game.

N-Space, even though they don't have the most impressive history, displayed some interesting ideas in Reign of Fire and with the guidance and demand for quality of Nintendo (who, since the buyout, must have sorted the wheat from the chaff), look like a good team to develop a promising game.

Doom 3 may turn out better, it probably will in fact, but I find Geist much more exciting.

Doom 3 does not attract me in any way (inc. sexually), i hate horror games (yes, that does inc. Resi Evils) so i will let this game fly over my shoulder at the release.
This new Rainbow Six 3 game is reminding me of when i had SOCOM 2, SOCOM 2 was almost identical to SOCOM 1 and should have been a kind of Expansion or download. I looked on GAMEs website and saw some of the screenshots, the only difference is the maps!
But despite the identical appearence to RS3 i will still get it.

Bar crap graphics and a slightly dodgy control system, Reign of Fire was great.
