Title: TimeSplitters 2
Post by: Rocky9k on February 14, 2002, 03:01:56 PM: I\'m looking forward to this FPS title. I had the original TimeSplitters, but sold it due to its horrible single player mode. I\'m a huge Goldeneye fan, and the fact that some of the Goldeneye team worked on TimeSplitters 2 pretty much has me sold. Unfortunatly I couldn\'t get my hands on a demo disk, but I\'ve downloaded several movies. For those who\'ve played it, or anyone that can answer...

A) How Close is it Bond?
B) Is the Gameplay better?
C) How different is it from the original?

So far it\'s a definite purchase for me, so anyone know the exact date in March? Thanks in advance.

A. From the demo disk it is Waaaay above Bond!

B. it is very bond\'ish but the AI is very smart......

C. BETTER graphics and better story-line...enough said.

According to Gamestop (Software ETC) the eta is 9/16/02...I reallly doubt it will be that long. for us here in the US.

If they squeeze Online into the game then TS2 will be the FPS to match on consoles for awhile

and I cannot wait to screw around with the new mapmaker

Get it mate, even though single player isn\'t all that.

by playing through story and challange you open up more bots , player charaters, maps etc to be used in mulitplayer.

Also some of the challanges are superb.

Post by: theomen on February 17, 2002, 12:07:44 AM: it\'ll be hard for it to beat bond in the multi-player fun factor, i remember 6-8 hour marathon of playing 2 on 2, and laughing so hard that i almost wet myself.

Inner Voice: What do u mean almost?

Post by: kopking on February 18, 2002, 11:49:15 AM: yeah its meant to be have a better story and one player mode, and of course better graphics, new games modes etc.

Post by: TheGeezer on February 19, 2002, 01:10:13 AM: well Ive only just picked up the first one (had avoided because reviews slated the single player mode) and I have to say Im totally loving it..... I think all the stats it gives you is a nice little touch aswell... so far Ive only been playing one night and Ive already fired 18000 rounds.... LOL

I much prefer this as a single player game than Quake III... will need to wait till the weekend before I can sample multiplayer side of things

Post by: Heat on February 20, 2002, 01:18:59 PM: I see your in the Uk , Its a shame you didnt get PSWorld #14 that had a good bit of in game footage and a few cut scenes from the game all in DVD quality. Thats when I got into TS2 and started reading all about it.
