Well, since it inarguably paid the worst, I'm going to have to decline. :)

were you at legend during Unreal 2? do any levels for that?

I was there during the very early pre-production work but I left for Epic before any real work got done. So, no, I don't have any levels in there.
 So...

When is Matt Sefton returning to the Quake community? I miss that guy.
 Hmm
#2662 posted by nonentity on 2009/05/27 19:00:39
Didn't he start remaking a map a while back?
 No
#2663 posted by negke on 2009/05/27 19:02:34
That was Matthias Worch.
 Hmm

Oh yeh, ofc.
Why did all the truly old skool have names starting with M?

8 March 2009 headline on his quake page at www.worch.com says he is looking for testers.

 Hmm

All this Mass Effect 2 E3 preview business is making me want to go back through and play it again. Eeeffffffffff
 The Original

It makes me want to play through the original again, not the sequel (of course.)
 Mass Effect

played through it once on PC, it was a fantastic experience! The combat was a tad crap but the story and characters more than made up for it.
Really looking forward to the sequel! Hmm and the bioware MMO too actually! :P
 Spooged Again :(

always with aliens, zombies and trying to make it like real life and the like;
don't they have anything original for new first person shooters?
 Yes.
#2673 posted by ijed on 2009/06/01 05:30:09
But those ideas get cancelled when marketing comes back - saleability of content unknown, saleability of zombies 70%.
It's important to remember that execs don't give a shit what the game is about, only that it sells. And that producers tend to have their balls surgically removed upon signing their employment contract.
 Bah

originality is underrated but not as underrated as quality.

Guys, it's Aliens vs Predator. The characters aren't really open to interpretation.
 Hehe
#2676 posted by DaZ on 2009/06/01 11:17:30
I need a good aliens game, my poor mind has been starved for way to long!
 I Was
#2677 posted by nitin on 2009/06/01 12:06:16
actually trying to say stuff originality if the game is good, and so far this one looks good.

I disagree - I would actually love to see some bold variations of the Predator and Aliens we all know. The idea of the alien has tons of potential already because of the face-hugger breeding through different organisms thing, and, well, I'm sure there are a fuck ton of ways to spice up the Predator. They don't all have to be clones of the first one.

Established franchises don't really need to be messed with, IMO. If you want to go all freaky experimental, create a new IP.
 Should Be A Player Mode

Where you are a face hugger. or a baby. first level starts in some dudes intestines.
Oh, and I hope they digitally insert Arnold Schwarz into the game. Or at least Danny Glover.

All the best franchises constantly evolve (this is a statement I'm pulling out of my ass, but just play along.)
Terminator introduces newer and better terminators each movie, etc etc.
Star Wars constantly adds new things, different ways to fight with light sabers, aliens, etc etc.
Hell, Quake is a COMPLETELY NEW GAME each and every iteration. And Quake 4 = Doom 3, so that counts as a new game.
For a species as technologically advanced as the Predators to have cloaking technology, laser targeting shoulder cannons,and arm-band nukes, they sure as hell could have a ton of different, interesting gadgets with which to battle, more interesting armor, etc. A warrior-centric society where each Predator tries to display his (or her?) own trophies and badges of honor, etc, has a ton of room to evolve.
