Hellgate London

[Oak]

Its not out here yet, but I had a friend mail me a copy from the US. Hopefully it gets here soon.

 

Anyone else looking forward to playing this game?

[Red]

Sweet looks like a good combination of fps and rpg like Oblivion. Will have to see what people say about this.

[James]

Um... what is it about?

[Oak]

Someone introduce James to Google, please.

I can summarize the concept of it in two words James. Scorched Earth. The game is where your a soldier in London, where basically the apocalypse has happened. Portals have opened in London, where floods of demons and monsters and various other beasties had came through, slaughtering everyone essentially. Pockets of resistance are in mainly the subway stations, and your part of the resistance against the demons.

 

Also I received my Collectors Edition of Hellgate London today.

I watched my friend playing the beta when we we're LANning the other week. It was pretty damn cool looking. The Hunter class is really cool.

[James]

So... basically it is supposed to be like Doom, but Hell on Earth... right...

 

Stolen idea, perhaps? id COULD possibly make another Doom game

[James]

Fuck you. The Doom series WAS and IS the best ever shoot em up. Just cos you can't appreciate old games...

[Oak]

Well I ended up purchasing this little gem, and I want my money back. All of it. Then I want to be compensated for the time I invested into it.

[James]

I appreciate old games. Hell, I even have Pacman on my mobile phone, but Doom sucked. For a sci-fi/horror game, it's completely unrealistic.

 

It doesn't have to be realistic to be a good game, Quake/Doom series are both gems. Look at Command and conquer, that was a good series too...
