It looks absolutely awesome...what do you guys think?

Nope

Nope.

Sony is making it. should tell you something

SO

nope

So far my picks are W3 or MOH, but a ton of games are coming out this year

let see we have Unreal2, Doom3 come this yrs so if I'am rigth I think Doom3 Going top them all fellow by Unreal2.
As far the best over all game out that is Half-Life it win hands down in fact out rank All Quake1,2,3 and add in Unreal1,2 when it come time to find a game server to play on last time I it well over 10,000+ server WoW.

I know Doom 3 is gonna be a jaw-dropper, but the concept behind Planetside is what sets it apart. Maps with sizes of 3 sq.km, vehicles and hundreds of online players...the gfx don't look that bad either. So what if Sony produces it?

tbh i think unreal 2 will be better than doom 3, doom is just gonna be another quake game with different shades of poo coloured textures everywere (which about the top 2% of gamers will actually have the hardware to run). Unreal 2 looks much 'nicer', outdoor settings, and great graphics that will run on my current setup. Also it might even have a story Doom 3 just reminds me of quake 2 with better graphics.

Also just noticed that game has a monthly fee to play, so it wont be game of the year ;(

Have you played Microsoft's online game called Asheron's Call?
It's kinda old, but I saw it on a friend's PC and it looked very interesting...same huge a$$ maps, takes 1 day (realtime) to walk North to South. Has villages where players meet and exchange tips,weapons,magic items & stuff. Just check on EBay how much those crap items are valued at...

Dunno, but the current gaming world (FPS) is stalling...nicer graphics, but there is no interactivity. Let alone the storyline. One thing is to play a deathmatch/CTF map in 16 players, another is to play realtime with another 2000. Imagine the possibilities...I'm not saying that Sony is going to get it right from the start, but the gameplay idea is what counts.

From what I've been reading, I agree, Unreal 2 is looking more impressive: on gameplay, on graphics, on animation, and also on scalability.

But, as far as game of the year? Deus Ex 2 might also be in the running (if of course, it is released this year). (DX2 will also use the Unreal Engine)

Unreal II FAQ

That quote should go on the back of the Unreal 2 box !

UNREAL TOURNAMENT RULES
so UNreal 2 mite kick *** 2

Yes, UT does rule.

Have you been to ModSquad and Nali City?

i dont know about game of the year but i am definitly looking foward to it,ive never payed a subscription fee before but i just might with this one.i just wish halo had come out on the pc kinda similar to planetside but thing was the whole team based play not just capture the flag and what not but based on what abilities your good at i.e driving,shooting,flying etc...and having to work together to acomplish goals like having a gunner for the buggy and someone else driving that kinda teamwork.

Last year was pretty dry for games, only a few outstanding titles like Max Payne.

This year though, I have already had fun with Serious Sam: 2nd Encounter. I can't wait to get my hands on Jedi Knight II.

Soldier of Fortune 2 looks amazing from the trailers. Doom 3 should be good too, let's hope ID makes some better gameplay refinements over Quake 2. After all Quake 2 was their last single player game. They didn't do much with RTCW. I am betting Unreal 2 will beat Doom 3's single player capability. However, I think both games are going to need some serious hardware to run. The original Unreal promised to run on current hardware and it failed. You needed a P2 back then for that game. PlanetSide might fail cuz Sony has a crappy track record for games outside of Playstation, however looks like an interesting Tribes like game.

In the end though, Deus Ex 2 is what I really WANT.

RtCW was a lame FPS game. I'm waiting for Unreal 2 and Jedi Knight II to hit.

unreal 2 is the main one im waiting for among others i loved unreal and unreal tournament.besides the graphics look simply amazing i just hope the gameplay is just as equally good

i dont think half-life or max payne was very good. quake3 is my current favourite.

these are the following games ppl should out for:

1. Unreal 2
2. WarCraft 3
3. Doom 3

never underestimate ID Software.

does anybody remember playing doom2 in the good ol' days where co-operative gameplay was possible?

Max Payne was OK, but lacked longevity. ID games have longevity there are still a lot of people that play Quake 2 and even Quake. Also the original Doom community is stronger than ever. [url=www.doomworld.com]www.doomworld.com[/url] People still make WADS.

I hate Half-Life, I don't know why so many people loved it. It was just another shooter, but it does have longevity and people are addicted to that game.

Have non of you played Operation Flashpoint?

Anyone that likes FPS games must get Jedi Knight II. It's the first FPS game that's long and enjoyable. Still waiting for Unreal 2 of course and DX 2. I've also been hearing some stuff about a new game called "Kreed". Looks pretty nice too.

Yeah jedi knight 2 "rocks"

Good game, especially with the lightsaber, almost finished the game and i dont think ive used a gun for ages
