Nah, its the Best FPS on the Xbox, but the best FPS ever, doubt it, I think Half-Life is better.

dan da man · Dec 29th, 2002, 11:57 AM

well it is IMO

MakgSnake · Dec 29th, 2002, 06:38 PM

Hey, thanks Dan Da Man, for all the advice, yeah I heard from the other people from work that Splinter Cell is pretty hard, I dunno, I really wanna go with it. I know I will buy Halo (For sure eventually) but I have played alot of Halo at Friend's place so yeah.

The games I wanna get bad for Xbox are...
1.) Shenmue II
2.) Dead To Rights
3.) Halo

I will get them slowly slowly, but before I wanna get an Extra Controller for Xbox, and a Ps2 Multi-Tap with Network Adapter, a Router and I THINK Xbox Live (In the next two weeks time)

Edit: Oh yeah as for Best FPS, Hmmmm...I'd go for Half-Life too, but different people have different choices. Halo's great, Half-Life just just god in my opinion, and way way too ahead of its time. I wonder when will the Official Half-Life sequal would come (Not the expansion pack or anything but a true Sequal)

DSgamer · Dec 29th, 2002, 06:48 PM

makg, i've been saying that since 1999 my guess is, it will prob. come out in the next 10000 years, along with duke nukem forever and team fortress 2

mark0™ · Dec 29th, 2002, 06:53 PM

yeah half-life won game of the year, its the only game i can think of that ever won it

it was described as the closest thing to an action movie, and I certainly is. Thing about Halo is that its just constant shooting, then some really good vehicle scens (the banshee rocks, wish you got it on multiplayer) but Half-Life has more interaction with your enviroment.

I'd like a Sequel, maybe you are Gordan again and your fighting with the goverment against the Aliens again.. who knows?

I feel your pain Gamer, but its nice to see that after sooooo MANY YEARS we are getting "DOOM III", I suppose just like that we'll see a light of Half-Life and Duke Nukem!!

MakgSnake · Dec 31st, 2002, 05:35 PM

Ok I know that I will be getting Xbox with SegaGT and JSRF. The additional game I am getting now is Splinter Cell, but now I have a little more $$$, and thinking if I should go with Halo or Shenmue!!... Any suggestion people???

dan da man · Dec 31st, 2002, 09:34 PM

makg get halo IMO if u like constant shooting and a good story line good graphics and realistic !!!! oh glad to hear your getting a xbox and splinter cell for sure!

one question! why did they have to make splinter cell so hard!!

I guess because of the realism, the more realistic games will get, the more difficult it would be in the future. I really like difficult games. Man I am so excited about all these games I am gonna play.

So Halo eh?......Yeah, I think I need to have nice FPS game too, I already have Unreal Champinion, and I am thinking of getting TimeSplitters2 on Ps2.

But I really love Shenmue II, I mean......its a game I have been dying to play all my life. It didn't get the best of reviews though, 85% and so.......still I want that game. I guess it'll be a last second call, while I am buying all the stuff.

I was going to, but I am going to wait for a better version of "Substance" on the Ps2.

Lemme guess, the horrid slowdown, right?

Well, there are extreme slowdowns in the Xbox version of Substance, not throughout the game but at some points of it. Because although its just a simple port, it doesn't even look like that. It feels like the game is using an emulator to work on Xbox and those slowdowns are bad. I usually ignore stuff like this, but hey we are talking about Metal Gear Solid here. I cant put this aside for a gem like that.

Stunna · Jan 1st, 2003, 06:42 PM

i own a xbox and im all bout the xbox go with splinter cell,halo, and depending on what games you like,get either ghost recon,unreal championship,or some sega sports titles if ur going online.

MakgSnake · Jan 4th, 2003, 03:41 PM

Yeaaahh.. I got myself an Xbox Finally. Well this is what I got.

Xbox with 1 Controller S
Bought another Controller S
Sega GT 2002 (Came with the Xbox)
Jet Set Radio Future (Came with the Xbox)
Splinter Cell
Halo
Unreal Champinioship (Bought that few days back)

Till now its pretty nice. I am enjoying all the games. Splinter Cell is really cool (but not better then MGS at all, I dont know from where people got that). Oh well..... its a beautiful game and Sam has some nice moves as we all know.

I am a little confused, as I still have saved some money, should I buy Shenmue II or StarFox Adventure........ or Dead To Rights for Xbox.

Damn.
But still. Its all good now!

Thank you all people who gave me advices in this thread, thanks alot, seriously!

..... You guys were great!

DSgamer · Jan 4th, 2003, 04:11 PM

I know Star Fox Adventrues is better game as it also got better reviews then Shenmue II, but Shenmue is kinda game I have been dying to play for a very very long time.

And dan, yup I think most of the people who bought their Xboxes this year got those two games (Halo/Splinter Cell) with them. They are they best on the system. By the way UC is an amazing game too! Wow.
