I played the shit out of TS2 on the ps2 and TS 3 on the xbox when I was younger. I'm going to emulate it now, good games but I was too retarded to do most of the challenges and I was spooked as fuck when it came to zombies and that mansion.
So I'm guessing the Xbox Hueg version is the best?

>>383243847
are you implying that speedrunning isnt just muscle memory, then grinding for the run?
>>383244130
Not really. The series doesn't really have a plot until FP.
>>383244130
Story was just pre-mission text boxes and the entire story gameplay was grab the bag and then head back to the time portal.
It really was like a beta/showcase of TS2 but it got a pass as it was like the first PS2 game ever.

Oh definitely not a chance. Crytek gives no fucks about Timesplitters.
They ran a poll once and may have looked into another one if it got enough attention, but games media fucked it really (Instead of linking to the petition, Kotaku makes it look likes it's a Timesplitters Poem, fucking cunts).
Now we have Rewind, that Crytek is allowing these fans to make. However they didnt tell Crytek they swapped engines to Unreal and when they found out at about 2 years, they had to switch back.
Currently Timesplitters is a fucking disaster.

"wow, man. Are you for real?"
That and the ladder scene never fails to make me laugh.
>>383249889
In my opinion it's the best implementation of zombies in a game because the level is so unassuming. It you play on easy you probably even forget zombies are in that level because it cuts a good third of it out. It's not a spooky scurry house like in 1 and FP, it's not an outbreak like in RE, it's not post apocalyptic world like every zombie game now.
>>383249931
People (including me) are used to mouse aiming but as a kid I played shooters on the ps2 for years. You get used to it and build up nice skills, lile in almost every game.

Future Perfect is 3.

I dunno why they thought having the reticle auto centre was a good idea.
hard mode was fucking insane in this
>>383258638
Business happened, they got bought by Crytek, some of their best people left because of that, and the remainers made a shitty game (Haze) and ran out of money.
TimeSplitters was the last game where "surprise, our game has zombies" was actually a pleasant development, besides COD5.
Not that a TimeSplitters game having zombies is an actual surprise, but too often devs have been throwing it in just to latch onto the craze or just to give you some busywork kills.

it was a different time
What many people don’t know was that in the final years of Haze’ development, Free Radical had begun work on another secret project, TimeSplitters 4. Built on the original TimeSplitters engine, as Norgate had alluded to in the last quote.
They had created TimeSplitters 4 in hopes of avoiding the no-game, no-publisher patch they tended to find themselves in, with the team growing, they ran the risk of closure if such an event were to happen again.
They tried, behind closed doors, to sell TimeSplitters 4 to publishers to get the financing to get the project into the market and into players hands. Even though publishers loved the series, they simply didn’t want to take the gamble on the series, which even though had proved popular amongst its fans, failed to show its success in the sales figures.

>>383254336

Are you me?
>Timesplitters Rewind trailer was nothing but a teaser that showed nothing

>>383267190
Free Radical got fucked by Luacas Arts, EA, and Ubisoft pretty much at the same time. LA went through CEOs like underwear while they were making Battlefront 3 and each one had a different idea of what they wanted to do witht he company and lead to payment being witheld. EA didn't want to advertise Timesplitters 4 because it had too much content, and then Ubisoft rushed them with Haze so that game sealed their fate because it's all anyone saw on their resumes instead of all the Timeplitters games and the fact they are mostly made up of the Perfect Dark and Goldeneye devs.

It was one of the numerous Halo killers Sony was trying to push, that just happened to be done by Free Radical.
The punchline here is of course is that half a year before Haze, the multiplat COD4 came out and Halo went the way of disco.
>>383270439
i remmeber it being on some gaming mags back when the previous gen just hit. you were some super soldiers that relied on a substance called nectar or something, basically one big play on bees/colonies. didnt do too well.

>>383267347
TSR is being developed so slowly that it's likely to just be one more level a year or so.
That's not an insult to the devs or anything, it's just very obvious that they're just a couple of guys working a few hours a week as a hobby, on a project that should take a few hundred people working full time for a year.

>>383288106
He meant both single and multi are worth playing you dummy
>>383288106
Sorry that came out kind of confusing, I meant that both single player, and multiplayer are god tier and that even without friends the game is amazing because while the main game is pretty short, there's a lot of secrets in it, and there's a challenge mode with tons of challenges that get progressively more difficult as you unlock more, not to mention trying to get platinum on all of them is one of the best time wasters there is.

>>383296597
honestly I'm glad you couldn't. You wouldn't jump around like a spaz in an actual combat scenario, and even in cases where ya would wanna jump on something it's still nice for it to simplify the player v player combat, and it makes the ai pathing more sensible.

>>383244031
>>383300167
So the legend goes (i.e from an old interview with the top dudes at free radical in the build up to the launch of TS2) Sony's own playtesting team never beat TS1's story mode on hard before the game shipped.

We aren't going to get a TS4 or a remaster of tf2 are we lads?
>>383237331
>tfw timesplitters 4 never
At least we got Haze...
>>383304198
I love the sloshy, key-framed animations in TS. There's so much personality to them.
>>383236978
This game was a joke to people playing Quake 3 etc at the time. Sorry kid.
>>383304734
I didnt have my own computer at the time. This game was godlike for console standards. Made the switch to 1.6 on my parents trash office computer soon enough tho.
>>383304650
Haze isn't as bad as the rep it has. Make no mistake its a solid 6 or 7 out of 10 game but the marketing hyped it way, way too far.
>>383305041
Fun fact: TS2 is still the highest rated console fps on metacritic.
>>383305041
>for console standards
>>383305198
reminds me.
Am I the only one in this thread who quit console-ing after ps2 pretty much?
Is Timesplitters Rewind even still a thing? They haven't made any updates about it in months.
I played this game series so autistically growing up, yet I only ever 100% TS3. 1 was extremely difficult at times and 2 had one or two near-impossible challenges.
>>383246159
I thought the only character they removed from ts2 to ts3 was Elvis impersonator?
>>383254016
Someone got the game working on modern systems, then fucking gutted it and tossed it into Homefront.
>>383258638
According to stories that came out later, marketers said that there was no marketable elements for the game
>>383291258
You can have a perfect bike even if a motorcycle would go faster, further, while carrying more. TS2 is the perfect console FPS.
>>383254016
So much wasted potential
>>383236978
Future Perfect was better
>>383249598
Yesss.

this actually poses a terifying and depressing question
why do game developers CHOOSE to not do this? they have hundreds of times the budget, yet they CHOOSE to not add these features which simply make the game better
I say choose, because if a game from 2001 can do it, anyone can.
>>383243608
>game gets more difficult, not by simply adding enemy health and lowering your health (although it does that) but by literally making it more difficult to complete

>>383315834
Save time and money, duh. If no one expects it then no harm it not giving it to them.
>>383315834
my guess is these features arent expected anymore (they were at the time, especially local splitscreen multiplayer)
basically player expectation goes down so developers stop trying so hard
that or the timesplitters devs just really cared about their game

In the realm of console FPS, it's obvious that Timesplitters 2 and Future Perfect deserve their spot in the top 3 if not at the top of the list.
With that out of the way, are there any other good console FPS that came out around the same time? I know many people would consider the Halo games on xbox to be up there and while I enjoy that series, I'm interested in other hidden gems.

In the haunted mansion level, there is a mounted deer head. The wall cracks and breaks down and this tall as fucker comes out. You have to fight him in a room about 10 by 24 feet across and it is cramped and terrifying.
>>383236978FP > 2
>>383319864
XIII is some serious neo-noir shit and will never, ever be finished. The game is a nice and tight thriller but modern vidya is in no way equipped to handle its implications.
>>383265750
>>383320021
In gameplay only
story is too linear and restrictive

It's sickening how this game gave, gave, and gave some more and didn't ask for jack shit. I sincerely believe that consumers will gravitate towards a developer that doesn't fuck over its customer base and displays they actually care about them. We will literally NEVER GET A GAME LIKE THIS AGAIN!

>>383324529
Everything you typed is objectively correct and makes me hate gaming as it exists today. Games are actually coming out with half the content of prior games and receiving higher scores when they are in fact garbage. Take the Spider-Man game coming out on the PS4. People are stoked when they return to motion based webswinging when it had been done before and also offered a completely other character to play the game as.
>Ultimate Spider-Man was the fucking shit and already looks better than what we're getting next year. Also the art style looked way cooler but this could just be an opinion thing.
>>383324529
Additionally there's no way a modern FPS would have you travelling through time experiencing a different setting per level.
