I really don't understand some of the reviews which pan the plot and the single player, i thought the plot was fun, the characters well realized and voice acted, and the gameplay intense and varied. Anyone else give it a spin yet?
I finished the Killzone 3 campaign a few days ago and I agree with everything you said. The voice acting was much better than it was in Killzone 2. I tried to go back and finish the Killzone 2 campaign after beating 3 but I almost found it unplayable because KZ3's controls were waaaay better.
So I ran across an FPS from 1998 today in a thrift store called Carnivores: Dinosaur Hunter. It was complete and cost a $1, but as I had more pressing concerns at the time (a buddy was locked out of his car in a nearby parking lot, so I was looking for a wire coat hanger), I didn't pick it up.
So what I want to know is, has anybody ever played it, and what should I expect? I love FPS and would like to pick up a new one, as I've beaten most of my PC FPS games, but I'm hesitant as I've never heard of this one and don't want something along the lines of a Cabella hunting game.
I'm actually messing around with Metal Arms:Glitch in the System on the Xbox a bit. Wasn't digging it at first as per usual when I play a shooter, but it has a charm that is winning me over

Finally got around to trying out the first Crysis yesterday - I played through much of the first level and was fairly unimpressed. Can anyone give me a compelling reason to see it through instead of tackling a different FPS that I have sitting on my shelf (e.g. Wolfenstein 2009, the original Far Cry, Painkiller, Timeshift, Perfect Dark Zero, No One Lives Forever, etc.)?
There isn't really much reason to play it if you haven't been enjoying it yet. The story is standard sub-par fare and the suit gimmick gets old real quick (and isn't especially fun in the first place). The only thing that really stands are the once benchmark visuals, but they're nothing too incredible today. I hear Crysis 2 is a lot better.
I highly, highly suggest Painkiller though. That game is so much fun.
