    I wasn't that impressed with the graphics. All the objects were brilliant, but the environments all seemed pretty dull without much texture, and what was with those fire effects? I've seen current games with better flames than that.

    Looks like a good concept for a game though, as long as it doesn't end up a bit gimmicky.

    I love how Valve release these cool little tech demo things for players to have a go with.

    I'm really looking forward to Team Fortress 2. Love the art style and it may plug the No One Lives Forever shaped hole.

    My bad, I thought they'd ceased development ages ago. I remember originally it was being developed for the HL1 engine.

    I wonder which will win, this, or Fortress forever for hl2 :P

    I think everyone thought it had gone vaporware. But Gabe Newell from Valve popped up at an EA press conference last week and BAM!, Team Fortress was back.

    Really digging the sixties spy thriller look.

    Looks a bit like a rip-off of Prey to me, which has been in development as long as Duke Nukem Forever so they've had plenty of time to lift ideas.

    Hope nobody's falling for the new 'episodic' format of releasing new content for existing games as well. It's just a glorified way of selling an expansion pack for 60 quid instead of the usual 20.

    Still... Team Fortress 2... urge to beat Infinite too strong.... may have to relent on that one. ;)

    I've heard such nonsense bandied around by you before. I always emerge victorious.

    Sixties spy shooters are my specialist subject.

    Duke Nukem Forever has been in development longer... after all, Prey is released.

    Just as a Valve spin off thing, I'm really liking the idea behind The Ship. I really don't know how well it will work but it sounds close to a multiplayer version of Hitman, so that's cool.
