So, for folks like me, most FPS games tend to feel a tad... boring. When I first got my hands on TimeSplitters for Playstation, I was blown away! It was a mix of film genre pastiche and high octane zany antics. With each sequel, it became more awesome! In fact, Future Perfect is indeed a perfect game (for me at least.) The characters are tons of fun, the environments are a blast to go through, and each chapter never feels fresh and ripe for adventure. Not to mention, Future Perfect tied together all the events of the previous games. Sadly, when Free Radical Design folded up, any games after the 3rd installment did too...
That was until Crytek gave the OK for an indie group to make their take on the series, "TimeSplitters Rewind." After some set backs, this project is chugging along in development. And with each update, more and more of that classic awesomeness is showing its wonderful face.
Now, anyone else following this project?
First I've heard of it. If it's half as hilarious as Future Perfect though, I may have to look into it.
For the time being, it looks like it might even be free! Or maybe this might develop into something else like with BlackMesa (which is being Green Lit for Steam by Valve) Heck, if Crytek and much of the team from Free Radical is behind this, then I can only expect good things.
