I'm actually betting that you could be right-on with this. The mech combat in Project Origin was the warm-up.

I agree with that sentiment entirely. NOLF was funy. Hmm I remember those weird cat-bombs was it and the body disappearance sprays.
I think I had more fun with the second game than the first though (Got the first as it was bundled with a Riva TNT gfx card).

No One Lives Forever was so great. I'd love some more of that.

She is Cate Archer, super expert spy from the No One Lives Forever series. Play No One Lives Forever 2, a game that belongs near the all time best in the fps category.

Or not. The sequel had a lame plot, less conversations between enemies, less gadgets, eternally spawning guards and an emphasis on "wacky" humour with midgets and pink jumpsuits.

Of course it's entirely possible that it just looks worse than it actually was when put next to the near-perfection of the original. NOLF3? Yes please, as long as it's closer to that.

I'll gladly take some more NOLF, though it could very well be a Blood revival too!

I hope Warner Bros. isn't against working with Disney though, I'd kill for a Tron 3.0.

"Tonight, we're making man cubes!"

Both of these games were the most hilarious things I have ever played. And on top of that, they were damn good FPS games in their own right.

Here's hoping its NOLF 3! Since they've already had her fight inside a tornado, in space, a volcano, etc. it must be time to fight in the center of the earth OR backwards/forwards in time!

Cate Archer! Wow, I thought I'd gone back in time when I loaded up this page just now.

Monolith is probably my favorite FPS dev out there. I would love to see some more:

- NOLF
- Blood
- Shogo

Those are some of my favorite from the old days, and all 'Lith properties. How about it, guys?

There we go. I was trying to think of something different I could get into. I think I'll play go back and play these excellent games!

Except the "third" one. That was just awful.

Wow, I never heard of Contract J.A.C.K. until I checked Wikipedia just now (in response to your comment). A 56 on Metacritic? Ouch.

Oh it was bad.....

I think the 56 is being nice when you realise that it's the biggest reason we haven't had a true NOLF3 yet.

J.A.C.K was a bad idea that will most likely not be remembered by many people to be in the NOLF universe.

Ack, this reminds me of when I had entered a contest back in 1998 on the official Shogo website (it was online up to 2008 and never updated but now is finally offline) and won a signed copy of Shogo. Too bad my little brother had to tear up the box. Okay, now when I get back home, I'm going to punch him really hard. >: (

Well, that page at least still works on the website. I can't believe its been up for over 10 years unchanged and Monolith has never noticed. I remember the website for Jazz Jackrabbit 2 came up in 1997 and was removed just a few years ago.

Cate Archer. The game was fantastic and funny.

"Older gamer?" Way to make me feel old, Joystiq. It came out in 2002. The original came out in 2000, but that pic is from the second one.

Yep, I feel the same way. I even place the NOLF series above that other acclaimed FPS game that rhymes with Math Wife.

Yeah I said it.

The PS2 port of NOLF is an abomination -- play the PC/Mac versions (including #2) if you want to enjoy yourself.

@Drew: Well man, I am not old either. (I'm only 22) But considering so many kids posting on these sites now are 15-17 and so forth, none of them were playing the awesomeness of NOLF back in 2000 when I was. Such a great game it was and continues to be.

I also loved both NOLF 1 & 2, and would absolutely purchase the next one in the series on day one -- assuming it was done with the requisite quality and care, of course.
