*shrugs* There isn't exactly much info presented to speculate on (not that that's ever stopped us before). Sega's making an FPS, they tried before and did decent, and I'd be surprised if they made one that ranks among the best ever.

As for Halo-killers (bet you're now sorry you used that phrase, aren't you?), Halo might do that itself once it finally hits PC with the extra multiplayer stuff, although I have my doubts about a flamethrower being in there. Well, provided it doesn't get quickly beaten by Breed (depending on whatever the release date for that ends up as), anyway. Mmm... gonna be a good year for PC FPS'.

Go for it Sega. Outtriger borrowed too much from Quake, so it wasn't that great with CS, UT etc. around. This time they should just be Sega and come up with something crazy. A fps with VC3 presentation and Sega's own gameplay would be absolutely killer.

This is one of the only genres where Sega can't say they have made one of the elite games in the genre. I think they can pull it off with the right people.

I still don't understand Halo hate. It's not my favorite FPS or anything but it's damn good. My only complaint about the game is that your teammates are such cocky losers. I would rather shoot them than the aliens.

If this is an AM2 game like Outtrigger then I think it has potential. Outtrigger was actually a very good FPS engine even if the game was lacking. It was just too limited by its ultra-small arenas and lack of good single-player mode.

Neo: I've mentioned that I prefer the older FPS in several other threads. The classic Build games are my favorites.

HALO is all right but it was nothing incredible IMO;)

Outtrigger + shenmue + spikeout + VC3 presentationa nd graphics = sold.

Advanced Outtrigger play mechanics with Shen Mue/spikeout environments complete with CPU people would be awsome. Shoot outs in a mall, church, arcade with Shenmue detail etc. would be insane.

How many times has someone said they have the next Halo killer? Its been at least 3. I heard Sony had one a year ago.. wheres that? So far Halo is the BEST FPS on console to date. Deus X was ok but too plodding and Halflife was just too damn late. And Goldeneye just isnt as good anymore.(this commming from a guy who played it ALL the time)
I'll believe it when I see it. :D
Anyone remember Maken X... that was suppose to be great too. ICK!

Yea, just like they made a Gran Turismo-killer. And a Madden-killer. Ill believe this when I see it. Which is never.
