First person shooters for GC - Tilted Forum Project Discussion Community

huskerd911 · 11-10-2004, 06:09 PM

I'm not a hard core gamer, and I don't own many games for my GC. I'm looking for a first person shooter for my GC like Doom or Wolfenstine 3d. I played Goldeneye for the N64 and enjoyed it.

Can anyone make a good suggestion?

Metroid Prime and Metroid Prime 2. You get niceties like lock-on, but that doesn't make it easy. Metroid Prime 2 comes out later this month.

I'm not sure what's out there right now for the GCN besides Met-Prime, but "Goldeneye: Rogue Agent" is coming out soon for all 3 consoles.

there is nothing half as fun as goldeneye or perfect dark for the gamecube, unfortunately. metroid's a great game, but a completely different one, and so not really comparable. check out timesplitters 2, and i believe there is a sequel coming out soon for that type of fps.

You mean Goldeneye and Perfect Dark for the N64, right?

Metroid isn't a pure FPS with the way it handles, but close enough in my book. In addition, the way it handles captures the feel of the previous Metroids.

I'll second Timesplitters 2. Made by the GoldenEye guys, and it's enough of a clone to keep you plenty happy! There's a level editor included, too, which is awesome once you get used to it's limitations. Plus the sequel coming out in the near future, you can't really go wrong. Easily on the same fun-scale as GE and PD once you get 3 pals going.

time spliters is a decent game, prolly one of the best FPS for the ame cube, but i can't wait till StarCraft: Ghost comes out for GC, that game is gonna be incredible.

BTW any1 kno when thats being released, it's been pushed back sooo damn much. Their web page says they dunt kno, but i dunno when thats last been updated, prolly not recently

Prime 2 will have multiplayer... so perhaps thats the way to go.

irateplatypus · 11-11-2004, 06:41 PM

yeah, if you liked goldeneye... i'm pretty sure you'll be happy with timesplitters 2. not a major franchise, but a quality title with a lot of polish. i picked my copy up used for 10 bucks at a used game store.

prime is one of the best games of this console generation... but not really an fps in the traditional sense. it's... half-life meets zelda... sort of. prime 2 looks even better, comes out very very soon, and features multiplayer.

eviL · 11-20-2004, 03:15 AM

how about call of duty: finest hour
its playing at the 2. worldwar
there was a pc version a while ago which was fun to play

i heard that farcry instincts comes 2005 ,i found many threads about it but in none they could say if its going to be released :/

Mr.Deflok · 11-20-2004, 08:39 PM

Technically it's not an FPS but it's entirely better, Metroid Prime and it's sequel Echoes are works of fine art.

Give them a shot if you haven't already, should you decide they're not your cup of tea, I'll rape you.

Aside from those try out GoldenEye: Rogue Agent and Call of Duty: Finest Hour.
