Thing is, I keep thinking how good it would have been if a little extra was included in the game. What I would have loved to have seen is a dinosaur hunting mode - no cyborgs or evil bad guys, just a mode where you can sit back, hunt and even take trophies (skulls or claws maybe ?)
The idea of the bushes and stuff moving and making noise is great, so a hunting mode could be excellent. :-)
I know you can go around killing normal dinosaurs in Evolution, but this would be even better as far as the hunting goes. Maybe even a Co-Op mode where 2 players can have a screen each or something and just roam around trying to kill a bigger T-Rex than they've bagged before.
Thats where the trophies could come in - you could display your biggest kills of each breed just like you get records in fishing games and stuff.
I think it'd add some longevity - especially when things can turn around and your soon having to leg it from a pack of raptors. ;-)
Americans get it tomorrow.
God knows when we do.
From what I've heard, although some places say 6th, others say 27th.
Still, it'll be worth the wait.
By the way, I know you're all talking about the Xbox version, but seeing as Gamecube owners don't already have the likes of Halo in the FPS department, I think we'll appreciate it more! :-P
Maybe slipping release dates will help me decide over the coming few months. ;-))
As for appreciating it more - I guess Ninties will cause they have had the license for longer. ;-) Plus its probably the biggest FPS the GC will have until Metroid Prime. I know you're getting Timesplitters 2 as well but that seems to be the Marmite of games - you either love it or hate it. ;-)
Too many games, too little money.
Um...
yea.
Its should read "have a merry XMas from Big Bill"
PS "thanks for the moolah"
:P
Highly paid job of course before we settle on the wages. ;-)) Celebrity status and everything ! :-)
