I miss 2004
Ooooh, so close. Let's see the correct answer.
Half-Life 2 > Doom 3 >>>>>>>POWER GAP>>>> Far Cry (insert game # here)
>>386758769
this anon get's it
far cry was released to hold us over until doom 3 which held us over until half life 2 which then we realized that doom 3 sucked dick and half life 2 was the best of the 3. But now far cry is the best out of the 3

FC1 > D3 > HL2
>>386758769
Fucking wrong. Far Cry was more ahead of the curve than Doom 3.
>>386758571
>Doom 3 better than Half Life 2
It had crazy good visuals and shadows in those days, but dear god what a shitty game.
>mentioning Far Cry at all
FEAR, UT2k4 and Sin Episode: Emergence are all way better and more relevant.
I loved Doom 3, of course Half-Life is the classic of the era, and Far Cry has always sucked as a series.

>ahead of the curve
What do you even mean by that?

I mean it was streets ahead.

Doom 3 aged a lot worse than Farcry and HL2 (even ignoring the engine updates).
I enjoyed Doom 3 when it came out but I tried replaying it a few months ago and I had to give up one hour in. It's slow, clumsy, the weapons feel lame and it doesn't even look good anymore.
Farcry 1 was great but the AI was incredibly frustrating. I think HL2 is overrated but overall it holds up pretty well.

You give up literally right when the game starts?

FEAR > Half-Life 2 > DOOM 3 = Far Cry 1

I kind of rushed the beginning, after all I knew what to expect. I gave up shortly after getting the shotgun and remembering how shitty it was.
