Griggle990 Zombicide HistoryWak Zombicide Nter Zombicide But BioShock was better than CoD 4 and Crysis. BioShock's powers were a bit cooler, and it was FAR more creative than CoD 4. You should be put in a Psych Ward. Maybe Bioshock did a great job giving people the general feeling and atmosphere of a would-be underwater metropolis but CoD4 provided tons of thrills, tons of immersion and arguably the most detail in any military FPS I've seen to date. And can we really count Bioshock as an FPS? Isn't it somewhere in the same category as a game like Metroid Prime? FPA? Look's like you need some electric shock treatment, buddy. I found almost nothing that separated Call of Duty 4 from almost every other military shooter out there. The core gameplay was very similar to every other military shooter out there. The only things I found different were the "thriller" segments, and the high graphics quality. BioShock had a lot more of a story than CoD 4, and it had some really intense thrills as well. As in, intense to the point of ********. CoD 4's thrills were just popcorn-flick thrills. You know, a guy gets hit by a helicopter, an so on, so forth......yeah, I've seen so many action movies where thrills like that occur. @ Death Blues Mix: And Call of Duty 4 is essentially a warped around version of its predecessors, so you have no argument there. The only difference is that the original games were set in WWII, and this one is set in some fictional modern-day setting. By the way people, enjoy this setting while it lasts, because Call of Duty 5 is ditching the modern setting for another World War II setting.Why? There are many other wars (don't have to be fictional) that can be done. Call of Duty 5 IS going back to its World War II roots. However, I do think it would be nice to see a Vietnam setting this time. Whatever they do, PLEASE DON'T MAKE IT A FUTURISTIC SETTING. I still think a WW1 setting would be the best because there have been many Vietnam games in the past, and almost none of them were good. It is possible to make a WW1 FPS, it’s just that no one bothered to make one. Also every rifle has to be bolt action, the tanks were very slow, and most of the battles were trench against trench. But hay, if there will be a good WW1 FPS coming out, I will keep a good eye on it, and then I might even buy it. okay dude I like ur idea but the problem with WW1 is more or less wars were still being fought in the same style as line each army up and shoot back and foth no strategey no FPS asspects or WW2 or other moderen eras where people smartaned up the only main diffrence in WW1 is it was trenches and there would be suicidal rushes across no mands land where the person would more or less be cut down by the machine guns remember it may be a cool idea but u have to think of the time technology advanced alot quicker then tactics did in those days

Sakyh I'm sorry but how the ******** did SMG get GOTY?! See this is why I don't trust these guys. I'm not too sure about that one myself. It certainly looks pretty, but Mario has become far too wacked out lately for my tastes. Right now my roommate could be playing it, but instead is playing Link's Crossbow Training. ... Of course, my roommate is a total weirdo when it comes to video games, so he's probably not the best example. mrgreen

But you can still make the game with tranch warfare. If you can make a game with D Day, anything is possible. Plus in the later part of the war, tanks were used so you can hide behind them when you cross no mans land into the german trench.

The reason World War II is used is because the European campaign is highly romanticized. Hilter and his armies are evil. Bad bad, jew killer. Freedom, yatta yatta. It's easy to get behind.
World War I is far uglier in Europe. The same reason it took so long for real games about the Pacific campaign in WWII to be made. The more gray a war is the harder it becomes to make it. Hence why most conflict games fall under one of three categories.
Good versus Bad. Examples being WWII Europe. Or space marines versus Aliens.
Second is Bad to Good versus Bad. Examples being games like the upcoming Haze. Mantel is bad but you start out as them, then turn against them.
Third is the elite versus the army/nation/universe whatever. Explains itself. Think like Crysis. The Nanosuit special ops fighting the aliens. It's more of a branch from GvB.
The market tends to stray away from games that linger in the uncomfortably gray. Get a man to read All is Quiet on the Western Front then see if WWI is a good setting for a FPS.

Get a man to read All is Quiet on the Western Front then see if WWI is a good setting for a FPS.I keep meaning to read that. But I did see the movie & I really enjoyed it. If nothing else WWI is a bad example of good vs evil because...WWI wasn't that kind of war. The German's weren't evil they were just helping their ally country Austria-Hungary. ut I won't go into details cause this isn't historyclass. And besides, trench warfare wouldn't make for a great FPS anyhow.

It'll be interesting looking for and hiding from the Vietcong who themselves made elaborate tunnel systems.

Vietnam is short of shaky still even in today's world. I think...umm a Civil War FPS might work. I'd love to actually do one, it'd be awesome.

That was already made, and the result was pretty mediocre at best. The game was History Channel- Civil War: A Nation Divided. Part of the reason the game sucked was not only because of its muddy graphics and terrible sound, but because gameplay was very generic, and the weapons just weren't good enough, since they were exactly like the guns of that time period: slow, weak, and very time-consuming to reload.

Man...well I don't want another WW II shooter. I'm tired of those already. Couldn't they do some kind of future war with the same thing they are doing with Tiberium? I mean they could make a post-war thing afterwards I suppose.

"That is lamer than FDR's LEGS!.....oh..... too soon...?"
Do you know how the civil war was fought?
Who would pay $49.99 or $59.99 for a game in which you get in a line, and after loading a gun for 10 minutes, pull the trigger? D:

Ace, you wouldn't spend 10 minuets loading a gun, you'd be dead.
Sides, they had some pretty nice gorilla warfare going on, Im sure someone can think of something....
