J.J Abrams the director of Star trek and Star trek into darkness is directing the new Star Wars movies.. Kind of funny imo.. also Making Half-Life and Portal movies which will be interesting.

Great director though, I love his movies.

Anyone else's thoughts?

I call bullshit. J.J. wouldn't get close to a video game movie, they fail miserably 99% of the time (AKA everything not Resident Evil).

Well I was wrong, I thought he was Directing them, but if you look again it just says Producing.

half life could be an awesome movie if they do it right, the first half life was the greatest, not that hard to get a story line but I hope it doesn't end up being like doom was with the rock>.<

He doesn't respect Canon. He's liable to make the next Star Wars movie a romcom about Jarjar Binks. He's better when he has a new, unique, original show to work on.

Yes and no. If you want to read up on his backstory with Star Trek you'll find out that he is a self-proclaimed Star Wars fanboy who watched such little Star Trek he didn't even know Spock was half human.

He won't do worse than Lucas did with the Prequels.

99% to do with the actress and 1% to do with everything else. Go ahead and deny it. :)

I suppose in the context I put it not really. But kinda? Just a bit.

You should probabaly try to find some Halflife 1 competitive death match on youtube and see what I think many might have missed.

That shit was the best.

Then Team Fortress Classic came along, and that was the best.

Now Team Fortress 2 is here and it is a steaming PILE.

99.9% of CoD "pros" couldn't play on a game like this

Yeah Hat Fortress 2 with its lack of gritty violence (see the blood in the shot gun kills during the still shots here -- that's daddy's cup of tea)

Turning one of the great classics into a fucking cartoon

PUH! (French spit)

Loved HL 1 deathmatch. The aiming-while-in-air rocket was pure gold :D

Spent most of my time on that map with the bunker and nuke. Oh the memories :p

I mean I had it down a little bit, I could definitely tau cannon hop and then fire a grenade from the machine gun then shoot a missle. That definitely separated the men from the boys.

But what the dude in there does in that clip with the sniper magnum is fucking unreal.

Load the game up and try doing that shit on a target that isn't tau cannon hopping and shit.

I also miss the vacuum gun you'd run around with and actually wear it lol. It pushed their "dead screen" back as long as you hosed the area they died with it iirc.

Never got into all the mods

I did play a ton of the hunted in TFC

I just wished there were more maps for it

Quake 3 WFA (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wrpl7E3AMCc) (Weapons Factory Arena) is also an incredibly sick game. Yes those lasers across the map were pretty much instant kill and set up by the Gunner. That scout early in the video flying in between them is out of his mind.

One of the best parts of the game is it retained the Quake 3 medals (Excellent, Humiliation etc) but added new ones class specific to each role that you could see over the course of your class career and by match.
