"The first person shooter genre has gotten pretty stale over the past few years, with every game trying to be exactly like Call of Duty, but still being stomped on by it. Years ago, FPS games were so varied and plentiful that you could always pick one up and pretty much count on it being an excellent experience. So I’ve decided to make this list of my personal Top 5 first-person shooters so remember the heyday of the genre."
How do composers make the iconic music tracks from games that we love? And just what makes them so memorable?
Unveiled footage of the cancelled TimeSplitters game emerges after Free Radical's closure, igniting fans' nostalgia and hopes for a revival.
From looking at the gameplay, it just looks like Fortnite, this would have been very poorly received by timesplitters fans.
I'm glad this got cancelled, what's with the Fornite knockoff? TimeSplitters was an FPS, not a 3rd person battle royale.
What were they thinking?
I got into a minor disagreement with their staff shortly after the closure, after i commented about a Timesplitters HD remaster to gauge public reception before such a big project here:

Looking at the gameplay footage, it's clear that the staff (no matter what level) we're out of their depth, putting lots of hours into a game that would of been DOA if Embracer didn't shut it down.
They removed the footage. Here it is if anyone's interested: https://youtu.be/BesmfPD8fj...
It's basically a Fortnite clone. Seems like a good decision to cancel this game.
TimeSplitters got cancelled for a second time recently, but for what reason? And is there any hope for another comeback?
To be honest the odds of this ever being good or recapturing the original trilogy were always going to be slim to none. The franchise was a product of its time. Look at how misplaced nostalgia met reality with Goldeneye and Perfect Dark. If you have to use old IP then most of the time you have to completely reinvent it from the ground up.
TimeSplitters 2 and Future Perfect are amazing
I loved Kong the video game. One of the best FPS experience I had even though it's based off the movie. :P
1. Modern Warfare 3
2. Black OPs
3. Modern Warfare 2
4. World At War
5. Modern Warfare
No Quake or Unreal but Black Ops make the cut? You gotta be kidding me.....
Black Ops? Oh well.
Don't know about top 5 but I really enjoyed Red Faction...
