    This game was basically the original "Unreal Tournament" of consoles, packed with content, customisability and innovation that even modern games haven't bothered to match. Remember back when developers empowered players to play the way players wanted, not just how developers wanted? This was that game.

      Yep. Sure, it didn't have all-new rendering, lighting and landscape technology allowing 16 times the detail. But at least the bloody game worked upon launch.

    Free Radical were some devs from Rare's N64 Goldeneye project. I noticed the status bars on the screen are very similar to Goldeneye, as were many of the animations, fonts and other assets etc.

    The graphics were good, the gameplay was fun, the story was interesting, so many characters, weapons, game-modes, etc. Why don't they make games like this anymore? Cause lootboxes, corporate greed, and safe samey games released every year. I sure do miss the mid 2000s

  • @drhfuhruhurr1899

    If this game was released today, half the weapons and game would be DLC, a third of it would be on a Special Edition and there would be no bots or local multiplayer...
    But there would be microtransactions, loot boxes, season pass...
    And patch after patch needed to get multiplayer working.

      It's an inevitability at this point. Their whole business model is buying up old IP's on the cheap and releasing ports/remasters of them (which isn't a bad thing, IMO).

    THQ *MUST* release an HD Remastered Trilogy of this series. While one TS game can provide many hours of content, having all three will *TRIPLE* those hours. The days of couch multiplayer will truly return. And most importantly: If this is marketed right, this could teach a lesson to the modern gaming industry that there were days when games were jam-packed full of content with zero DLC and *ESPECIALLY* zero microtransactions.
    I can easily picture a selling point/slogan for the Remastered Trilogy that takes the piss out of modern gaming with something like "Remember when games had so much content and charm? No DLC, no Microtransactions, everything is yours right out of the package."

      When did this happen? I remember there was some rumblings about Timesplitters being bought out along with a bunch of other IPs (like Company of Heroes), but that was nearly a decade ago. I remember listening to one of TBs videos on it, and he was of the opinion it meant that Timesplitters was basically dead.

    You gotta love seeing AI friendlies and enemies carrying out objectives in a game from 2002. Unfortunately, today's development teams seem to be completely incapable of emulating this feat after nearly 23 years of hardware advancement. Look at Payday 3 for an example of AI that is so brain dead that they couldn't take on Timesplitter 2's bots.
    What a pathetic state gaming is in today. But hey, at least we know what the development teams political beliefs are.
