That's all I thought Max Payne was good for, actually.. The story's crap, the script is awful, but the aciton is great.

Try and download the chaingun or mp5 mods, plus the level selector (skip to the last 2)..... the chaingun is the gun off the chopper...it's stupid but great fun.

I thougt the story was alright, its Max's lines that were terrible...
"The sun set with practiced bravado"
And that was one of the good ones....

I can't remember where I heard it but I thought that the lines said by Max were supposed to be "comic strip aweful", as were the images of those cut-scenes... I found them kinda involving in a strange kinda way.

Ah, I heard about that mod too... they say it's awesome indeed...

If you don't do anything else this year for mercy's sake get a bunch of mates around and play the 'rocket crowbar' mod for halflife. It's the funniest thing I've ever seen. Shotguns that fire exploding scientists, black hole grenades... The list goes on.

lol, I've seen a mod replacing those weird exploding homing aliens with penguins, it's damn funny to watch

dunno if the link still works, but Max Panye Kung Fu

and why has nobody said the first AvP? Nothing beats that as far as atmosphere.

Just don't tell mik that, he doesn't take lightly when people suggest that there are games with better mood setting than System Shock 2...

I watched my brother play once, and it had him jumpin in his seat, beat the first AvP, man. Predator mode is OK, Alien is my fav, but the marines? when you get to the part with facehuggers, you cant see them, you here them first, you run around scared, and then its on your comp screen sucking at your face. and the game is dark. Real dark. but this summer im gonna play ss2 and compare the two

You haven't tried U4E for Unreal Tournament yet?

They have just about every weapon idea I can think of, some of which are really wacky.

Come on people!! Scientist proximity mines!!

You plant one he just stands there until someone comes within proximity distance then he politely says 'hello' and BOOM!! you're a blackened stain on the closest wall.

CP5670 · **Reply #73 on:** March 25, 2002, 11:43:36 pm

Lets see what we have in U4E...

Quantum Singularity Generator - basically creates a small blackhole; some cool effects can be made with this as it sucks in all nearby objects; also, if you create multiple singularities and enter one, you can come out of another

Fleshbomb Rifle - when a person is hit by this, they basically run around for a while with their sight turning red and then die in a big high-radius explosion a bit later; very fun to use

Blow-up doll - everyone can guess what this does; just runs around saying "mama" until someone gets near it, at which point it explodes in a mini-nuke

Airblast - basically an aircraft propellor, you can blow stuff away, suck people in, and fly around

Shrinker - can shrink or enlarge target ; if enlarged, target gets really fat and then explodes; if shrunk, target becomes really small and gets 2% of its original health (can be easily run over)

Spider bomb - crawls around map and searches for targets; when target is found, it just moves near it and blows up

There is all kinds of other stuff in there as well; these are the weapons I can remember at the moment.

You got that right... AvP (and AvP2) is so far the only game that REALLY scared the crap out of me. Damn, I still remember how my neck was hurting after a playing session with marine, because I have been so scared

Thief and Thief2 were exiting, not so scary as AvP. It was awesome to wait in a corner and listen how guards walk by and then knock them out with blackjack. Man it was a great feeling

Those are Haunts, not Zombies.

OH, OH, I know a good one:

Heavy Gear II!
This is one of the best shooters out there. What you do is control (usually) fast 14-foot humanoid power machines, I mean, you can even punch and use swords!
Plus, the graphics are still astounding!

EDIT: It was made in 1998
