    My brother and I spent a lot of our childhood playing Timesplitters: Future Perfect together. The fact we still don’t have a remake with updated graphics and modern controls is criminal.

      Funny enough, Homefront the Revolution on PC has a hidden remaster of TS2 tucked away. Not too hard to access and easier with a mod to extract JUST TS2 as a standalone executable. Google "Homefront revolution TS2 remaster how to unlock full game"

      If you have or buy Homefront the Revolution on PC you can access a hidden remaster of TS2 inside of Homefront. You can google how to access it, takes a few tries but its not too bad to do.

    Im 32 with three siblings who are nearly a decade younger than me. We didnt have much common ground in terms of things we loved together back in the day, but TS2 and TS:FP were two of those games that brought us all together, quite the pinnacle of split-screen arcade multiplayer as far as the mid 2000s went. THe siblings and I still quote the character selection lines from time to time. Trust me, Ive been eyeing that TimeSplitters Rewind project thats been in the works for what feels like a decade now. Im hoping there'll be a day where I can drag my computer out to the living room and play that with my siblings on the couch one more time. I love jackbox party pack nights but man I know thatd be something the four of us would love to see here in the near future.

    There is an independant team that is doing a remake of the 3 Timesplitter (single player and multi player content) called "Timesplitter Rewind". But it is taking a lot of time because the team is not that big (and searching for new members to help out) and they have to remake all of the assets of all the 3 games so it is quite a lot. But so far what they have done seems really good!

    Then the multi-player character roster of that game is insane and some had hidden moves.
    The weapons same story.

    I love going back and checking out the old TMNT comics I was really into back in the 90s. For me that was kind of the pinnacle of the turtles comic book era and damn that shit was violent and awesome. I tried to get my son into it who is starting to dabble in comic books, but after seeing the cartoons for so long, he can’t get over the whole white eye aspect of the comics. He says them having white eyes freaks him out a little bit. It still blows me away how they made all these children’s toys and cartoons with those comics as a base point considering how bloody and just off-the-wall violent they were I remember that used to confuse me growing up that they were doing a cartoon and it was supposed to be for kids.

    Thanks for answering my question! I like a lot of Jeff Lemire's work. Descender/Ascender is great. Gideon Falls is phenomenal! Both have great artists with distinct styles. If you're looking for a new artist to get into, my suggestion would be Tradd Moore. His art is so trippy and his latest work proves he's got writing chops too. If you haven't yet, check out Silver Surfer: Black and Doctor Strange: Fall Sunrise.

I loved 1 as long as I can remember - not so much on game delays or industry timelines but the content of the game itself, scope, ships, story - I really think after Starfield, Star Citizen, and NoManSky that people are hot on evaluating what space games can or "should" really be

    Back in the 2000s, most multiplayer games had clans that fostered an amazing sense of community. I was in a CS:S clan, and hanging out in our server gave me some of my best teenage memories. Did you experience anything similar? Do you think online gaming has lost its ability to foster these tight knit communities, and if so, do you think there's anything it can do to bring it back?

      @cenciende9401 Місяць тому

      My friend recently tried to join a clan in an online game, and immediately heard straight up racist and homophobic rants in the clan voice chat. Yeah, I think it has lost that ability as the gaming community has become so infected by fake toxic gamers who just want somewhere they can hide and be a loser because obviously they have nothing in their lives. Most people used to game just for the joy of it, I have to go out of my way to carve out time for gaming in my life so I damn well play something I enjoy, now I'm convinced at least 20% of 'gamers' don't play a single thing and just want something/a bandwagon to be angry about

    Hey Jake! Been a long time user (since 2015 I think), great content as always. My question is do you have an obscure gameplay feature or mechanic that you would want to see come back. For me it was the taunt system from the old arena shooters like Unreal Tournament where your character would talk shit after loading up 6 rockets and blowing up someone. I guess due to toxicity issues, these days they don't have these or maybe just fun commentary like in the SSX or the burnout series. These used to add so much character to the game.

    One of my favourite underrated games is "The Thing" ps2. It followed John Carpenter's film really well. Had a great atmosphere and the trust system was pretty unique. Do you think it would be a good time to make another "The Thing" video game with today's technology? Or which John Carpenter film do you think is ripe for a video game adaptation?

    Ou I'd love a Universal Monsters game! Also I've always been curious on where your "Pizzas on me" catchphrase comes from?
    Also how do we claim these pizzas? (lol)
