aaah, I used to play the heck out of this with my brother… Our favourite was to set all the bots to 5-star melee-only monkeys on one team vs. the two of us. And the entire soundtrack is filled to the god damn brim with bangers. The Scrapyard music particular goes fucking hard. Certainly a formative moment in the development of my musical taste.
Elimination, 3 lives, One hit kills, Cathedral, All weapons are Sci-Fi handguns.
this game kicks ass. some of the most fun multiplayer, and totally perfected the ‘goldeneye lineage’ of shooters of those 2 console generations to its apex. The map-maker was incredible too. Even had event flags and such, where you could make your own little campaigns. Was mad disappointed they removed that when future perfect rolled around.
Peak multiplayer shooter. It’s been downhill ever since.
I had a ps2 demo disc that had the first level of TS2 (siberian dam) which I played over and over and over. Could never find a copy of it, but I got Timesplitters 1 instead and played it to death and back.
One day some neighbourhood ‘bad kid’ randomly showed up, acted like he was my friend and asked to borrow it, and I, being the shy, timid, push-over simply said ok.
Weeks later I would ask for it back, and he would give me some bullshit about how ‘Oh yeah I’ll get it for you, don’t worry’, until finally he said that he had ‘accidentally’ snapped the disc in two.
