Vote PC damnit. It would be nice to have a game like this one the PC. I really liked the challenges in 2 but found it got really annoying with the gamepad. Those blasted handymen would be much easier with a kb+mouse. :D

Voted PC. :)
To be honest though, I haven't actually played a Timesplitters game, despite owning a GameCube.

^They are damn fine console shooters with a ton of variety and challenges. It amazed me how bad Haze was considering how awesome timesplitters were. I voted PC but I'm glad to see the wii in the lead

I'm a PC man myself but have all the timesplitter series on console. I have always loved playing it on console and think it should stay on console.

I don't know how you can say that. I think being able to take all the good things of Timesplitters but add proper mouselook would go a long way. PC shooters don't let you have so much control over weapon choices or such nonsensical locations/modes. So I think it would be a great way to break up the UT's and Call of Duties.
Assuming of course TS4 is any good. Haze.....:mryuck:

I voted Wii which is 1% behind PS3. I would go PC naturally, but I slowed down on PC gaming after it became a "OMG NEW RIG NEEDED FOR EACH GAME!" so yeah, I can't afford that, I can afford a development PC and that's about it lol. I Wii for everything else.

PC is getting its butt kicked sadly.

Voted PS3 because I need a good lighthearted shooter that's good with splitscreen and bots. Good to see it's in the lead.

Voted for PC.
I can't believe some people want Free Radical to do something new. They tried that (Haze) and look how it turned out.

It's interesting how the PS3 owners are so eager for another Free Radical game....
Voted PC, but will probably buy it for 360 if it doesn't come on PC.

Voted PS3 because I don't have a 360 or a Wii and my PC is definitely too aged for any new games.
Voted PC. Haven't got any of those consoles.

Voted PC.
Love the 2nd one, though it's the only one I've played. I have Future Perfect, but it'll probably be awhile before I fire that one up.

I voted for 360. I use to love making maps in ts 2 on the first xbox. Just looking to do that again. ps3 is winning by far dudes.

5% for PC? Are you freaking kidding?
I voted for PC, even though I'll be buying the game on 360 (for the split-screen multiplayer).

Assuming they make a 360 version. I wouldn't be surprised to see Sony fork over the cash for an exclusive, given that the series started on PS2. I just don't want a shitty port.

After Haze bombed, I'm not sure Sony would care about another exclusive from Free Radical.
Daveman
09-18-2008, 04:46 PM
But an established, critically-praised, fan-favorite series? I think they would. They might not pay as much as they would had Haze not sucked, but it would still be a good exclusive for them to get. A lot of people would certainly buy it, as the series has had some of the best shooters ever to come out on consoles.

Well that and if I were Sony I wouldn't be turning down any exclusive offers.

I don't know how the process works. Is it common for a developer to approach a publisher or the other way around?
Damien_Azreal

Most developers have to get the go ahead from their publisher before they can move forward on a project.
Self funded developers (3DR, Valve, id) develop the games themselves, and then (either through pre-existing contracts, or new ones) their publisher releases the game.

I can't believe some people want Free Radical to do something new. They tried that (Haze) and look how it turned out.
They also tried that with Second Sight and it was a pretty good game from what I gather. Of course that was last gen.
Voted for PS3 accidentally. Wanted to vote Wii.
I don't think the Wii will get it, though, sadly. All the major FPS game devs want to go HD, not limit their "abilities" with a less technologically impressive engine.
I want to see Timesplitters 1, 2 and Future Perfect on something (it'd be best as a collection) . I know they are probably going to release a Timesplitters 2 HD for XBLA and PSN but I want to play them all through.
