Hehe, aye figured as much when I saw you asking around in the AvP thread.

Tho, I was talking about AvP2 in the L4D thread. The MP is pretty much the same in AvP3, but with very few good maps and it has the match making BS that seems to be the trend in games these days.

I played RUSE back when it was in closed beta, it sucked very much, as I've said a few times around here.

I haven't played Borderlands, but I can say that Warband is awesome. It also has a ton of replay value and it's extremely moddable.

There's an AVP3??!

So im guessing "AvP Classic" is what i played. Early 2000 i think. Quake 2 engine i think it was. I know theres a newer AVP. Im guessing that one is AVP2?

The "few good maps" bit, i think i saw on a video review. Since you just said the same thing, thats making me lose interest already.

Now, id be lying if i said Borderlands still doesn't get my interest, despite misgivings. Espeically since its a FPS & RPG. I seem to be a sucker for those. I figure the solo play will probably become dull, but how's the multi on steam? As you probably already figured out, i really like co op multiplayer against a tough ass AI that will WTF PWN you if you don't have your teamwork together. Probably only reason why L4D1 and 2 remains on my hard drive.

edit: BTW, i had a blast yesterday in L4D2. I love that AK . Get one of those with a laser sight, and i think its the best AR in the game.

Well, it's called just AvP or AvP 2010, that'd be #3. The thread you asked around in was for that game.

Yes, AvP Classic is AvP1, think it was released in '99, AvP2 came shortly after in 2001.

Aye, used the AK today as we played with Raptor, the sound makes it feel accurate in some weird way. Great weapon.

Just FYI, i just read that the GOTY edition of borderlands is due out tommrrow. I might wait and see if steam has a sale on that or not. Otherwise, i might get Warband.
