Remake Shadow Warrior.
Words can't describe my happiness. [QUOTE=Disgruntled;37061213]Remake Shadow Warrior.[/QUOTE] While I FUCKING agree with you, this will never happen. There were some words about the big people inside 3D Realms not allowing this game to ever reach daylight again. Sad stuff, it had the most awesome gameplay I've ever experienced in a FPS. (Still play it)
Goddammit, [i]yes[/i]!
So much nostalgia from that new Apogee logo. So is this a new studio using that old name, or was Apogee around this whole time but not really doing anything?
[QUOTE=meatballfish;37057143]I am so sick of fast-paced shooters.[/QUOTE] I'm not sick of them, but god damn am I terrible at them. I don't know where you people get the reflexes for this shit...
[QUOTE=BananaFoam;37061905]I'm not sick of them, but god damn am I terrible at them. I don't know where you people get the reflexes for this shit...[/QUOTE] I guess back in the '90 where graphics were more simple, you have only focus on the thousand of enemies trying to kill you... and for sneaky secrets. I remember spending like 20 minutes pushing walls trying to find a secret :v: Anyway, good coincidence, I was playing Rise of the Triad some days ago and I thought: "I wonder if someday there will be a new game of this". Days later, this new. Awesome.
Fuck yeah first a new Carmageddon now ROTT? My childhood is coming back to kick my ass and I can't wait.
[QUOTE=Instant Mix;37057227]it's a sound from the original (3:43) [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b4JEx2XQ-_Q[/media][/QUOTE] I can't stand the way this guy talks for some reason. Also I remember playing this game all the time, the trailer makes it look like it's going to be structured like an old school shooter.
OHMYGODOHMYGODOHMYGODOHMYGODOHMYGODOHMYGODOHMYGODOHMYGODOHMYGODOHMYGODOHMYGODOHMYGODOHMYGODOHMYGODOHMYGODOHMYGODOHMYGODOHMYGODOHMYGODOHMYGODOHMYGODOHMYGODOHMYGODOHMYGOD [editline]3rd August 2012[/editline] i mean HOLY FUCK did i even mention how much i love ROTT
[QUOTE=carcarcargo;37057659]It'll probably fail miserably like Syndicate.[/QUOTE] Yes, a game which is essentially a direct HD remake of it's older self is comparable to a financially failed cookie cutter shooter with no relation to the original.
Apogee still exist? Not that I'm not excited of course.
[QUOTE=Instant Mix;37057227]it's a sound from the original (3:43) [/QUOTE] Holy firetits, you just helped me find that one weird game you see at a friend's place when you're 4 and computers were so new and mystical to you...
I remember so much from RoTT. In particular, I remember the multiplayer. There was this weapon which produced a wall of fire that couldn't be avoided. But the voice commands were pretty funny. "Where arrreee yoouuu?" "Ovverr heeerreeee..." "BEHIND YA" Then you get blasted with a shotgun. But the campaign really annoyed me. The final boss couldn't be beaten unless you killed all it's secret little eggs, and that was a serious pain in the ass. I'll still buy it though.
[QUOTE=megafat;37065141]Apogee still exist? Not that I'm not excited of course.[/QUOTE] Apogee = 3D Realms That should be common knowledge. Anyways, I wanna see the Dog and God mode in action. And hopefully they'll put in those cool secrets like the DIP balls, the infamous Scott's Mystical Head and Dopefish mode. They [i]have[/i] to. It won't be ROTT without those things.
I wish someone would make another Descent game..
[QUOTE=Smug Bastard;37060299]Looks a bit half-assed, IMO.[/QUOTE] You don't say?
Played this while at QuakeCon but I didn't find anything remotely unique about it. The setup was clunky and it seemed to me the remake was trying to resemble Wolfenstein a bit too much. I got a shirt for being the #1/#2 player though so I guess that's cool.
