My X-mas list for games... Options

[M@ster of Dis@ster]

1. Unreal Tournament 3 - has a warfare mode that sounds like a sophisticated version of Base Assult, complete with vehicles!

2. COD4 - to see what the fuss is about

3. Crysis - Enjoyed the ability in Far Cry to be able to go "off the path" and modify your approach and play style...not just run-and-gun constantly. Hopefully, this is the same.


If anyone else gets games 1 and 3, let me know.

Here is a modded map that a player made in about 48 hours:
------------------------------------------------------------------------

It is a short map, where you control Raven, sent on an assassin mission to eleminate an international weapon dealer. Here is the mission objectives :

Mission Briefing

Two days ago, around 14:00 GMT+6, Echelon intercepted a phone conversation that seems to pinpoint
the location of Nori Shyuhei, one of our top researched weapon dealer on the international black market.
He seems to be located on a small island in the Indian Ocean, where he is experimenting on breaking new
weapon technologies. However we assume he will stay on this island only for a short amount of time, and
although your team is already on a mission, we cannot pass on such an occasion.

The submarine Gomzahs83-U1 will drop you from a safe distance of the island, you will make your way there
and try to pinpoint Shyuhei's location, and make sure that he never gets a chance of continuing his traffic.

Your codename for this mission will be Raven, and the general Rickson will be on constant communication
with you from the Gomzahs83-U1 to help you with the tactical details.

I do not need to remind you that the failure of this mission is not an option, and that such an opportunity
might not show up ever again.

Good luck.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

This was a single player mission like many that are being made for
this game. Player has to be stealthy and action can be intense if
you are discovered. A good diversion from all the shoot-um-ups
