i played the Elite Force demo a year ago, thought about buying it then just plain forgot about it. :P
both Fallouts look cool, but i was really looking for a fp game. about AvP2, do you need to play the original to get the sequel? (like SS2) Nope. Totally self-contained AFAIK. Pretty involving too =).
DX is the closest to SS2 obviously. Other games mention will fit the rest of your criteria. If you broaden your search to simpler FPS games in fantasy/realish, I'd recommend Undying, Wheel Of Time and RTCW. Doom 3 and Dino Crisis 3 (XBox, though I don't currently own one). Halo's supposed to have been good but I didn't like what I playtested at the store for 20 minutes.
I'm an older games junkie for some reason. Stuff like Front Mission 3, Final Fantasy Tactics, Final Fantasy 7, Dino Crisis, Quake1, etc lights my fancy. Though I really do enjoy the new games, as long as they're a game instead of a graphics engine showoff... Stuff like Metal Gear Solid 2, UT (not 2003), Starcraft, etc. I liked Ratchet & Clank, too. :) I tried.
I haven't done any Quake related stuff for quite awhile, been focusing on my art. Quit my job for it... now that's passion! ^_^ Free add-on, apparently (no RTCW required).

http://perso.wanadoo.fr/etienne.aubert/sshock/sshock_rebirth.htm It's a remodelling project that aims to recreate the System Shock 2 models in higher res. It looks really good, and when he releases it I'll reinstall the game and play through it again. is there any way to retrieve images from photoshop tmp file (in the win/temp folder) after a crash ?
I kind of remember a feature in Quake that let you stop the game from switching to the weapon you just picked up, even if the weapon is "better" than what you currently have. Anyone know the command? I want to add it to my QW config.
Or it could be that I'm just wishing. setinfo
Type: Command Syntax: setinfo (key) (value) Description: Sets information about your QuakeWorld user. Used without a key it will list all of your current settings. Specifying a non-existent key and a value will create the new key. Special Keys: b_switch - Determines the highest weapon that Quake should switch to upon a backpack pickup. Example: b_switch 5 (Will only switch to the Super Nailgun, Nailgun, and weapons below and never to the Grenade Launcher, Rocket Laundher, and weapons above.) w_switch - Determines the highest weapon that Quake should switch to upon a weapon pickup. Example: w_switch 5 (Will only switch to the Super Nailgun, Nailgun, and weapons below and never to the Grenade Launcher, Rocket Laundher, and weapons above.) --------------------- So stick those in your config files. I have it set to these, so it never auto-switches to anything above the SSG (I guess?) setinfo b_switch 2 setinfo w_switch 2 We are far from those years of when Shambler introduced me here. It has been a great pleasure to do mapping since 1997. It is time for me to do something else as I am reaching 40 years of age.
Read it more on my site: http://pages.infinit.net/quakemap Cheers, QMD. QMD'S retirement from the mapping scene
http://pages.infinit.net/quakemap I think this is an important milestone in quake mapping history. those were two independent news submissions. Both by canadians, and both used all-caps in their headlines.
as far as we pot smokin liberal british columbians go, we dont consider them canadian.
They belong with bal WTF, I introduced QMD here?? I don't remember that at all!!
Foolishness or sadism?? Or both...
