Well I don't actually think it will suck, but I think you all are jumping the gun in proclaiming it the second coming. ;)

FF XI BETA for the USA started a while back, you can apply to it even if your in Europe though, this game works closely with ATI (like PS does withnVidia) and ATI made a special STI BETA (its the same but users with ATI cards only to test compatability) and I applied to that, I got a guild for that game going, we got 20 peeps ATM, we been around since like 2000
Release date is sometime late this year but before December (can't wait, Dragoon job here I come)

^YEAH Europeans can play! I'm gonna be a beastmaster!^
HL2 will only take my attention away from ANYTHING if Team Fortress 2 comes out (Although, I don't think it'll be a mod)

I find that single player games are starting to suck for me unless they're really good or console. I rarely play single player PC games. BTW, the first release of HL2 will be single player only.

Where did you hear this? They said at E3 it will be released with MP.
MP is the bread and butter of any game to make it a success and keeep it going. The community would be PISSED if they did not release it with MP. They don't want the community pissed at them seeing the game took like 5 years.

T:V will be worth DLing the demo but I have some more MMO plans up ahead and they'll be RPGs so I'll spend alot of time with those so I probably won't buy it.

As soon as it gets closer to release and they're sure that there will be no delays, i'm pre-ordering half life 2 in the collectors box. got a ton of cool extra stuff from what i've heard.

Half Life 2 is going to rock. Right now while waiting for new puter for PS I play Half Life constantly. Personaly in my opinion CS sux, buncha noobs to gaming runing around thinking they are 1337 |-|4x0rz and cheaters. I personaly cannot wait for Half Life2 Day of Defeat. Its an awsome game and will even be better now that there is trackless vehical support! P.S. Gravitron gun is sweet!

your right people are. I mean, how do we know hl2 is gonna be "one of the best games ever" or Doom 3 is? from clips at E3? From developers record and media hype.... I dont go by those things.
In fact if i do i find i am often dissapointed. My friend told me about this website a while back, like at the start of the beta. I could have joined but i didnt because i knew if i did, before even playing planetside, i knew it would make me think the game is the best thing ever (and i personally think it is a very well done and enjoyable game unlike..... some people)
Ill read a few reviews when hl2 comes out..... then ill rent or buy it and if i like it keep it

eh, a game never lives up to the hype, but the anticipation that it might is all part of hte fun, for me atleast. ;) :)

Expecting HL2 to be the best thing ever is setting yourself up for dissappointment. I think it will be a really good game, but I don't really expect it to be the best thing ever.
As far as how long will it distract me from PS that'll depend on how many days it takes me to beat single player. That's kinda hard to predict though because it will depend entirely upon how long the single play scenario is. C&C Generals distracted me for all of 4 days which is how long it took me to beat all three scenarios and then beat the American one again because 15 Particle Beam cannons is just so much fun :p

Took da words outta my mouth. Check out this screen shot. Thats the kind of urban shiznit PS should have. BTW: is this a stadium? I almost shitted my pants first time i saw this, it looked so cool.

Actually, hes right. I know for a fact Halo 2 is going to pwn entirely too much ass. HL2 will obviously be great, same with T:V.
Man.. itll be like gaming nirvana. Too bad my ass will be in Germany learning how to use Javelins and learning how to snipe from marine corp bizitches.
Wow, Im so glad I have so many comps. I cant wait to load up HL2, Tribes Vengance, and all the new games :D
Its lan time, baby.

Yeah, i saw that too. But then again, it might be an old pic.
All i could think when i read that, though, was "Jesus! If thats 29% complete I cant wait to see the other 70%!!"
:eek:
I just don't want to fail another semester. :lol:
If i have to somehow find a way to play(possibly) T3 + PS + HL2 + FFXI and go to school i'm screwed. :p

I'd prefer to see the other 71% actually... Would like the game to be 100% done. :)

Good, by then i'll be bored of most the new games out now and i should have a better PC. :D

NO :)
Thrax said it would be $50.00 for the game and nothing more. However Sierra "maybe" looking into renting servers for the Tribes community if they want a team server.

Right now I have a P4 2.9 ghz, 512 RDram, Radeon 9700 PRO.
The next time I upgrade my PC will be just before T:V is released. Only thing I will need though is the high end gfx card that will be out in 18 months. :)

:D Oh man, I promised Hamma id lay of my l33t r4nting ski11z for a bit. Otherwise id go berzerk on you.
No. Unlike PS, Tribes will not charge a monthly fee (at least we are all 99% certain it wont). The developers and marketers at Tribes will not only give us a game worthy of $50, they will not make us pay extra every month.

Well, thanks for not ranting, i suppose i should have known more about T:V by viewing the post made on these forums... since you know... someone mentioned if there was a monthly fee or not already...:rolleyes:
