Who said anything about half life.

The trailer looks a lot better than the screens.
Given the developer, it might be for the best that it's being toned down. I recall the writer of Bulletstorm saying he didn't realize how profane the script he'd written would end up being once translated to English. Could you imagine if FWH were told to be intentionally over-the-top with racism and sexism and how that could end up?
Ah, but will it be the same lame attempt that Duke Forever got?From Facebook:
And again, it's not like Shadow Warrior 1 was some exemplar of amazing perfect humor that would just get eaten alive by evil PC crusaders today. A lot of people found it to be really distasteful when it was new, and it's not really hard to see why.

It wasn't a low rent Doom clone, and multiplayer, anyway, certainly is not lazy.
I have no problem with them removing the sexism and racism, but multiplayer? That's too bad, for people who like that... I don't remember the first Shadow Warrior ever being a really popular multiplayer game (that would be its predecessor, Duke 3D), but I'm sure some people liked it.
Press X to Wang.

That's how most launch games are going to look. Look at Quake 4 on 360

"Linear as fuck" perfectly describes Half-Life and all the games infected by its poison, and while I'd hardly call Doom and Duke 3D non-linear there's much more room for experimentation and different ways to complete levels, especially in Duke 3D with its jetpack and Blood with the jumping boots.
There's a massive difference between the level design in those games and todays run-through-corridor-whack-some-moles-QTE-watch-cutscene FPS.
I'm hyped,old school FPS need to return in a good way somwhow
yeah it happened on 360 first year,there will be period of time in the next gen (a year even) when the games will be nothing more that same old stuff but withe higher res that till the dev get used to new tech.

Someone should ask them if it's a corridor shooter like Hard Reset.
Awesome,so far so good.

If that is the state of next gen graphics... that is seriously underwhelming.

Well it still retains the humor, setting, and mythos of the original. They just removed the sexism and racism to make it more legitimate and modern. I just hope they compensate with great gameplay
Based on what, though? A teaser and a couple tweets? Devs make promises all the time.
Nothing wrong with doing that.
My point is that if they take out major elements that made Shadow Warrior what it was, it's no longer Shadow Warrior.
Using that name is just a marketing gimmick, at least from my somewhat uninformed point of view.

For anyone else who likes the song in the trailer: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XIh4ttI7mP8
What are you basing your theory on it not having any of those on?

No purchase.
Shadow warrior runs at 900p 60fps on Xbox one and 1080p 60fps on PS4
Very sorry for the necro bump. Limiting junior powers at all. Sorry again.

someone should create the thread
Another game to look forward to in summer, and the 1080/900, 900/7xx p difference is further becoming a standard.
