everyone says that timesplitters 2 is good but 007 might be better. metroid prime graphics are good but it is all aliens. Aliens are rubbish. it is between 007 timesplitters 2 or die hard

Go on IGN, read the review for Metriod Prime and watch the videos. Then come back here and give us the order of what you would put them in.

If Nightfire is anything like the last Bond game then its going to be a let down.

And as TS2 is the only one of these out, get it!

Are you insane?

Metroid Prime is gonna make the other games look like Wolfenstein 3D.

ALIENS ARE RUBBISH.
This is very true. Very very true
No one else agrees with me though. Or, if they do, they are scared of Whitestripes.
I say they are rubbish because they look crappy, they are not satisfying to kill, you can't relate to them, they all look the same, they all act the same. If you see an alien in a game, you will say "Oh, I know this alien, it will try and jump at my face", so then you know exactly how each one is going to react.
Did you ever think why Goldeneye was so great, or why people like GTA3 or MOH? It's because you only shoot humans. Shooting humans is always more fun than shooting anything else. The only thing that comes close is setting monkeys on fire. But not in games.

Seeing as Nightfire isn't out yet, nobody on these forums can give you a fair comparison. Best go onto ign.com or another similar site for previews and reviews of both games.

As opposed to the repetivness of killing humans?

There can be many different types of aliens, they can behave in totally different ways, they can have totally differently abilites, they can be terrifying.

Humans don't change.


If you think aliens in games are bad, go and play Alien vs Predator, as a marine. And if you still think it's crap, then you suck.

I think he meant the repetitive-ness of aliens, but I'm not sure.
