How are they, and are they worth spending some time after?

  • Red Faction
  • The Punisher
  • Area 51
  • Chrome SpecForce
  • Medal of Honor: Allied Assault
  • 007: Nightfire
  • I.G.I.- 2: Covert Strike
  • No One Lives Forever: A Spy in H.A.R.M.'s Way


Thanks in advance. :)

The No One Lives Forever games are great, one of the most under-appreciated franchises out there. Oh, and the first Red Faction? Wow, it's fun and all but I don't know how well it's held up. A lot of the best features in that game have been stolen (and multiplied) by other games now.

rofl...typed it twice when flipping through the game CDs. :p

Yep Cold Fear looks promising. I am thinking of giving it a go next.

No One Lives Forever 2 looks pretty exciting. Red Faction was one of the earliest purchases I made (about a couple years now). Its been sitting on the shelves since then. Sooner or later I might have to give it a go...seeing my love for FPS its bound to be sooner. :D

What about the others?

I've played some of the others but don't remember enough about them to really give you anything helpful.

* The Matrix: Path of Neo - Short, but fun, the hacking subgame didn't thrill me but the story meshed well with the movies.

* Red Faction - Fun FPS with destructible environment. Dated, but #2 is worth seeking out.

* The Punisher - Basic movie tie in game with a fun interrogation system.

* Area 51 - Generic FPS

* Medal of Honor: Allied Assault - Quality MoH game, nothing new though.

* 007: Nightfire - Good Bond game, the intro missions are pretty memorable.

* No One Lives Forever: A Spy in H.A.R.M.'s Way - Great franchise and a blast to play.

If Area 51 is the same as the arcade game of the same name, it's one of my all-time favourite FPS games. Its really straight forward, but super fun anyway.

Are you talking about the one with the guns attached to the machine?

I heard that The Punisher has some really sweet gorific deaths. Looking forward to that.

Area 51 reminds me of Doom 3 for some reason. Need to check it out asap.

Thanks, Des.

Pretty good if I remember right, but much better with a buddy.
