Reclaimer Posted October 24, 2004 Share Posted October 24, 2004 Hi everyone, I'm back. I've recently picked up a copy of Xbox Magazine(November Edition) This months had alot of interesting games: Splinter Cell Chaos Theory was one of the games that caught my attention, but that's not what I'm going to talk about. On the Game Demo Disc, a game that caught my eye was Area 51. I start it up and it starts out, "Bravo, request to move back blah blah blah." I'm ready to play and after that first door opens, aliens pop out. Now about these aliens, They look like the Flood from Halo! I go on all the way untill I some how pick up two SMGs (Hint: Seems alot like Halo 2) and then the little creatures falling from the cellings look like Flood spores! Here I finish the demo and I disappointed. The demo looks just like a copy of Halo, just the soryline, place and people are different. So thats my little disappointment. Feel free to post your comments. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Area 51 sounds like crap. Sounds like its Halo but in Area 51. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LightNinja Posted October 24, 2004 Share Posted October 24, 2004 maybe it is done with Halo engine Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mex Posted October 24, 2004 Share Posted October 24, 2004 Originally posted by LightNinja maybe it is done with Halo engine What the heck? Now I'm even more confused. Jedi Academy was done with the Quake 3 engine, but that didn't have all the characters and maps from Quake did it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rogue15 Posted October 24, 2004 Share Posted October 24, 2004 and that's why i pretty much gave up playing FPS'. Once you've played halo, you've played them all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IG-64 Posted October 24, 2004 Share Posted October 24, 2004 Hmm, when I came in here, I thought you were going to talk about the oh so entertaining shoot em up arcade game. But since your not, and that i've never played halo, I guess i'll have to just walk away from this thread without an opinion >.> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RpTheHotrod Posted October 24, 2004 Share Posted October 24, 2004 Yeah. I thought you were talking about the ole arcade one. heh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
El Sitherino Posted October 24, 2004 Share Posted October 24, 2004 I was under the impression the new one is pretty much the same as the arcade shooter, but more indepth and more FPS like, instead of arcade shooter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LightNinja Posted October 24, 2004 Share Posted October 24, 2004 Originally posted by Pal™ Now I'm even more confused. dont need to be confused, just dont read it EDIT: and i mean that if the devs are much lazy they can take the same skelletons, "ergo" () the game will have the same animations.

RoxStar Posted October 24, 2004 Share Posted October 24, 2004 It looks like the little child of Doom 3 and Halo 2 that they kep in the closet and don't like to talk about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
