munch on my schlong

they couldn't even get the basic story right in most of those episodes

Your opinion is bad and you should feel bad. TimeSplitters is not a good game by any modern standard. Future Perfect had a better campaign than 2 and the map maker was better as well. FP also had the Assault/Siege mode which was fucking cool as hell. I can concede that many people believed 2 had a better multiplayer though and call that debatable.

Okay I'll give you that, FP had (slightly) less """soul""" than 2. But apart from that single advantage. FP is the graphically, thematically, musically, narratively, and mechanically superior game.

Future Perfect had better gameplay for the most part
Timesplitters 2 had a better story and better maps; I also remember Map Maker being less confusing, and better texture'd

This

>Future Perfect had a better campaign than 2
wrong
>TimeSplitters is not a good game by any modern standard.
mega wrong
>the map maker was better as well
that's not correct either; only improvements were vehicles to make racetracks and maybe the mission designer
>FP also had the Assault/Siege mode which was fucking cool as hell
Sure, but all you need are Zones, Bag, Elimination, aaand of course Virus.
>I can concede that many people believed 2 had a better multiplayer though and call that debatable.
It was just better maps and a less bloated roster. The aiming isn't as good in FP.

Future Perfect is my favorite but it's not perfect at all. I also dislike the menu theme compared to 2. Music had less oompf in general.

>Okay I'll give you that, FP had (slightly) less """soul""" than 2
this is true though
Although to be fair, Future Perfect is quite the funny game, just a tier below Armed & Dangerous.
2 was comparatively light on the humor, but the drama was gripping in a way FP didn't try to be.
>FP is the graphically
yeah, but the difference is barely noticeable, practically insignificant
>thematically
very debateable
>musically
>narratively
it's cohesive and tells a good single story, but 2 had almost a dozen intriguing independent stories to tell; FP also flanderized some elements of 2 like Harry Tipper which brought down the narrative; it relies too heavily on getting laughs
>and mechanically superior game
this is really the biggest and maybe only selling point of FP, but enough to push it into best game territory; it still doesn't obsolete 2

It's simply too advanced for Yea Forums - Television & Film.
