I have some dead time so if this has not been posted here.


1 Demo:
RTCW

Video:
True Crime
Sudeki
Godzilla
Run Like Hell
Kameo
Tao Feng
Impressions from other site:
"I just got my new OXM and it has a playable copy RTCW....Ah I'm not good at giving impressions but It looks+Sounds amazing*, runs at 60 and plays up to par with the Best FPS's on Xbox. I can't wait to play it live


*Much better than the PC version IMO." I think he said there was a co-op mode too.

I'm with ward... what kind of crap are they trying pull here. One freakin demo... BIG FREAKIN WOOP! I don't even understand how they can get away with that. Some of those video's sound cool, but is the Kameo video the same as last months? I bet it is... they should start doing video reviews and previews of the biggest titles per month... don't cha think that would be cool?

while i was mad there was only one demo on this disk...at 1st i got over it cuz i thought taht RTCW would rock.

IT SUCKS! Sure the grafix and sound are amazing but what a game is all about it gameplay and that sucks. Not only is it hard...its confusing... and its very unrealistci with stupid zombies crawling around.

I was hopeing this would be the same style game as frontline....just better and im sadly disappointed. Ill play the demo again but as of now I dont plan on buying RTCW anymore

What were you expecting? This is Return to Castle Wolfenstein, not Reinactment of WWII. The series is based on zombies. I've played the PC version a whole lot and it was great. Multiplayer was great as well. Hopefully it translates to the Xbox well, although I doubt I will purchase it just because I've already played it to death.

i knew there would be some unrealistic stuff as ive played the old Wolfenstien and loved it. I never played RTCW on PC cuz i dont have the specs so it was an entirly new game to me and I was dissapointed. I wish there was a mod to replace all the zombies with Nazis and maybe some adjustable difficulty. THen this would be a fun game

I just got off the phone with my buddy who is just as knowledgable about FPS's as I consider myself to be. He got his demo disk a little while ago (I have mine sitting at home waiting for me!!!!) and he said the demo is 'great'. He said the graphics were phat, and that he thought there is a co-op mode in the demo as well. I'll post my thoughts after I play it for a while. I own the computer version so I'll be able to tell if its up to snuff or if activision dropped the ball.

Since I have never played RTCW on the PC, how would you compare the gameplay with Unreal Championship and Halo? (Obviously, both UC and Halo are radically different from one another and I'm interested in a comparison with both). I'm just impatient :D

Toonz

I would say it has nothing really in common with HALO or UC other than it is a run and gun style game. While the SP is fun its nothing special. Like others have said where the game really shines is in MP. MP has one flaw in my opinion though, you really need to play this game in MP with the right group of players. A bunch of uncordinated strangers all on one team really sucks. You need a team effort to accomplish the goals of the MP maps. You are given a set of objectives ex. You start on a beach and must make your way up the beach and plant dynamite at 2 possible points to breach a base. Once inside you must make your way into the base's basement locate some documents and take those dcouments to a radio room and transmit them for victory. Your team is made of classes

Letiuenent ( spelling ? ) = These guys have the ability to call air strikes, artillery fire and are responsible for handing out ammo to the rest of the team. They have limited gun choice

Soldier = These guys have a large variety of guns to choose from and just that soldiers

Medics = limited guns but have the abillty to hand out med packs to heal you or even revive you after you have been killed providing you were not blown to bits by a rocket or something.

Engineers = limit guns but high grenade count these guys can plant and or disarm dynamite they can also repair machine gun nest type guns that a sometimes placed on maps if they are damaged.

It takes balancing of these classes to pull off the objectives.

Others include planting dynamite and 2 different radar stations, or breaching a hatch or controlling a large door at a airbase and destroying a radio atenna. Or destroying a sub in a underground base etc.

There are also maps where the objective is to have your team raise about 7 or 8 flags and when you manage to have your flag raised at every point your team wins

Hope this helps MAX. Maybe it was to much info hehe

kinda off topic. but what about the reviews?? what are the scores and did they review this game??

yall
03-27-2003, 08:25 PM
OXM gave it a 9.2 which is pretty high, but sometimes their reviews are way off the mark. That being said, the demo is really good. Think of it as being slightly better than Medal of Honor in basicaly every category from graphics to AI. Add multi-player and co-op (which unfortunately can't be played via system link) and you have the recipe for a great game.

I have only 1 thought/complaint after playing the demo, it seemed a little too dark. But I also noticed all the movies on the disk seemed really dark as well. Anyone else experience this?

Wow, this game is actually good.:eek: I never would have thought that it would compare to the ever popular PC counter-part. I wonder how the PS2 version will turn out, with it ever popular crappy graphics and weak FPS controller. :D

its an ok game...probly a rentle:) The graphics and sound may be cool and all but yea the game makes you dizzy. also its pretty corny when you kill the skeletins cause they blow up and its just...corny. also its a pretty long demo(i think) cause there a coop mod you can play along with single player

Upon its release as long as it does not suffer from the same poor performance UC does I think it will be best LIVE game there is to date
