I should've taken your advice HL2.net

[Cavalry]

Sorry, On Friday, I brought home some marks from school (a 100% on a notebook check, a 92% in an U.S. history course, and a 89% in a High School Standardized Test Prep) and my parents took me to the market to buy a few games.

Here's what I got-

Turok- 20/ 10 I love this game, easy controls, environment/graphics look amazing, and stabbing a VELOCIRAPTOR WITH A KNIFE IN THE HEAD IS AWESOME!!!!!!! Buy it, no matter who you are.

Frontlines-9-9.5/10- I quite enjoy Frontlines, using the drones was really fun, and the infantry/teamwork is pretty fun, calling in airstrikes is cool, but I'm not fond of the vehicles/vehicle controls (except the tank, since its similar to Mercenaries) I would recommend it if you like intense firefights

Turning Point-4.5/10 I was utterly disapointed with the controls and looks. At first I was like "Oh Wow, this looks amazing" since your on the top of a building thats being built when the Nazi's attack in planes. But at the first enemy, I was kinda upset, the way the character seemed to have a military training, despite being a construction worker, but I continue. My first achievement "Sharpshooter" was odd to, killing 4 Nazi's that are parchuting isn't hard. Then I saw my first car. It was a Taxi that appeared to be a 2d/cartoon in a game with decent graphics. In all the smoke and fire, here's this bright ass yellow cartoon taxi in a parking lot. The only thing that made me really smile was the statue of Liberty head on a street in NY, it was so realistic and freaky. Turning around takes awhile too, you move slow as hell. The guns don't feel like they do in other games (M1 Garand) I would get nonstop headshots in CoD3 with it using ironsights, but I can't seem to kill anyone with it, my bullets are not effective at all. I should've listened to you guys in regard to TP. I will not recommend this game.

We are co-terminous. Thus, the collective intelligence of the shared conciousness of Halflife2.net exceeds your own.

Come with us.

*edit - No, wait, don't.

[Pesmerga]

I share consciousness with HL2.net?


Cool.

[taviow]

That means I know your deepest secrets... :naughty:
And **** you Persmerga, you know mine too. :angry:

[Pesmerga]

2 sounds like a fair score to me.

You shut the hell up


Pes-why didn't you like it?

I know that the gameplay became repetitive after a while, but fighting the T-Rex and being killed by a dinosaur has a lasting affect (please note, I didn't like the MP much, but the SP is pretty fun)

[Gargantou]

You shut the hell upSomeone's having a bad day it seems.:stare:

There are better dinosaur games out there anyway, like Trespasser, and lets not forget Dino Crisis 1 and 2!:D

You sir have made your point.
Only on occasion is something less repetitive ( when your running away from the T-Rex and fall into a raptor cave) but once out, it is repetitive again.

[TollBooth Willie]

But it's still fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun to make meat fountains out of raptors. Therefore, your pancakes are invalid.

I sat there pondering for a moment whilst half-heartedly glancing at the thread in dismay. Where was the intelligence of my compatriots being drained to? I asked myself in my ever-fascinating internal monologue. So, determined to find out, I wrapped myself in a heavy grey cloak, donned my favourite gentleman's cap, plucked my trusty cane from its place in the entrance hall's ebony umbrella stand and opened the heavy oaken front doors. The rain was heavy, so much so that I knew the river would be flooded and impassable. We would have to take the treacherous mountain-top route. As requested, my horse-drawn carriage was waiting at the bottom of the stone steps. My driver, the loyal Hardy sat rigidly upright on his perch, awaiting to set off. Tethered to the reins he was holding was Arrabelle, my new palomino mare, purchased after the death of my beloved Abbervail Dream. Supper had been truly stupendous that evening. Arrabelle was a frivolous horse, barely able to pull the carriage bereft of its baggage, let alone a fully-encumbered excursion for my wife and I to the seaside, but on my current tight budget resultant from the less than satisfactory sales from my last novel. I climbed through the door and sat myself on the damp chair cushion; the carriage was leaking. I heard a muffled whip from outside, almost drowned out by the pounding rain, and the carriage lurched into motion.

As darkness began to fall, I further wondered why people found games like Turok to be worthy of their intellectual time. The demonstration I had played had been laughable and swiftly deleted from my Microsoft XBox 360 twenty gigabyte hard disk drive to be replaced by a more adequate game, such as Beautiful Katamari. It was as our journey came to a close, that I realised the rain had stopped. With the end of this rain came a flash of inspiration. The signature signed at the end of Cavalry's posts had read as follows:
" My Name has Changed from BowSniper to Cavalry."
With this new evidence that had come to light, I no longer felt in the dark regarding the lack of intelligence shared by more than one member of www.halflife2.net/forums and to a lesser extent the Halflife2.net Steam Community Group Chat room.

For fear of falling foul of my driver and asking him to turn back straight away, I still feigned urgency towards visiting the library and sat inside reading copious amounts of Mills & Boon romance novels with the aim of quenching my unwilting lust whilst he sat out in the now resurgent rain. A couple of hours later I exited the library to find my downtrodden driver still where I left him, a slight air of whisky about him. I gave him a solemn nod, confirming that my task had been completed.

The overnight journey back was tough, the relentless rain making the mountain path a dangerous occupation; the river still being flooded. And yet Hardy and Arrabelle crawled onwards, ensuring my safe return to the castle. Meanwhile I slept in the back and dreamed of candyfloss. Upon our arrival home, I opened the door and let Hardy put the carriage and horse away in the stables. I knew he enjoyed his work as whenever I gave him a task, a little glint of a smile twitched to the corner of his mouth.

I let my cloak, hat and cane slide into the arms of my waiting maid, Henrietta. Despite my wife being home, I risked a generous grope of her ample bosom beneath her uniform. I looked forward to her joining me later for some BDSM. I ascended the stair and looked in upon my wife who was soundly sleeping. Without wishing to disturb her, I passed gracefully through the bedroom to my study where I proceeded to further troll my way through the halflife2.net forums on my typewriter.

Why did BowSniper change his name?

I wouldn't say Trespasser was "better" than turok (please bear in mind that the last Turok game I played was Seeds Of Evil), but certainly more ambitious.

Deserves a remake on the source engine, along with a revised interface/combat system (oh how I hated the robot arm) and a bit more action (while still cramming in all that fantastic Jurassic Park lore it had).

[Cavalry]

Why did BowSniper change his name?
Because I hate the HL2 crossbow and the Turok one isn't much better.

Yeah... wrestling with the mouse to aim a damn weapon/swing a weapon at retarded dinosaurs is totally better.

There are no good dinosaurs games in existence, except for maybe the Carnivores series.

[TollBooth Willie]

Carnivores series.This, except for that pos FPS another developer made and raped the series with.

[Gargantou]

There are no good dinosaurs games in existence, except for maybe the Carnivores series.Fair enough, I like Trespasser with the fanmade patching projects etc, makes it alot better.

Anyway, I think Dino Crisis 2 was a great dinosaurs game.

Never tried it, isn't it pretty much Resident Evil with dinosaurs?

[Gargantou]

Dino Crisis 1 was, but Dino Crisis 2 was far more action oriented than the RE games, and that was to the better IMO.

Hm, I'll definitely keep an eye out for it.

[AHA-Lambda]

I liked dino crisis except dino crisis 3 that sucked ass :|

[Glirk Dient]

I played the turok demo and nothing made it stand out over other shooters. In fact the dinosaurs became annoying and nothing seemed fun.
