Re: Heads up! FPS ONLY

In Response To: Re: Heads up! FPS ONLY (Apoptosis) > Why the assumption that first person = quake. Last time a > checked, some other FPS have come out that were better than > quake, and some times a little innovative (Thief series, System > Shock2, Halflife). I'm also not quite sure why the FP aspect > would ruin Halo. Saying it will make the game like quake is like > saying 3rd person will make it like Tomb Raider. "Next > thing ya know all the soldiers will be women with double D > cups!" But the matrix-like tricks that have been implyed (flipping + firing) work way better in 3rd person.... And for longrange amiming, a pip like in Deltaforce works really well.... Anotehr cool thing would be cameras on the bullets, watching them arch to their target in your picture in picture screen.... The ultimate sniper aid... And in 3rd person it works really well. I agree with Sryker... Bungie have never failed to please, so we should trust them not to screw up such a good idea... -- $erial-ki!!A
