System Specs

Yeah, you're right, Doom 3, HL2, HL1 and Halo 1 were all boring, Crysis was good but too easy and too short, and it also felt too much like Far Cry all over again, otherwise it was a good game and an a brilliant fps if we were to compare it to all the fps' coming out now. HL2 for me was too orange, and the colors just didn't click for me for some reason. Bioshock is probably the best fps out right now but the retro vibe and weapons are not something I particularly enjoy.

And funny thing is the pc was mainly known for its prowess in having good shoot em ups and strategy games, two areas which are really lacking the former glory of old that they once had firmly in hand, and here we thought it was easy to make an fps and/or strategy game for the pc.

Edit: I'd just like to add that Prey was also a good recent fps on the pc, and most of these games like Doom 3 and Halo 1, even Prey, were pretty fun when played in multiplayer rather than in single palyer especially at a lan where you're all in close proximity lol.
