Oh yeah, the Single-Player was great fun, if the driving challenges didn't grate my nerves one too many times for my liking.

"Drive across the entire game world through 8 military checkpoints in under 4 minutes, 3:25 seconds for bonus"

"In a dune buggy"

"FUCK!"

Other than that: Combat is great (if never ending), and ambushes are fun to pull off. I'd recommend the single-player yeah.

Yeah, Guerrilla is the third one. NEVER EVER pick up 1 and 2. I got them in the THQ pack (along with Guerrilla) not even considering them reasons to buy it and I still feel cheated.

Battlefront 2 for the xbox, it is literally dead, they shut the servers down
Really? It must of been the end of last year i played my last match, when did they get taken down?
No clue exactly when, but when me and another friend were visiting a friend who had moved to Georgia, last summer I think, we rediscovered how awesome the game is and ended up playing it for an entire week, when we returned home and tried to play online we discovered the atrocity to the gaming world... oh yea to answer your question I have no clue

Medal of Honor Airborne, hilariously so. Call of Duty boasts 15,000-20,000 players in each game, a year ago, MoH Airborne had 12.

Modern Warfare 2, maybe, I've sat in lobbies for 15 minutes waiting to find a game, so I don't know if that counts as dead or not.
Doubt it, It's had more players than Black Ops for these past few weeks.

In my opinion, Alien Swarm... It was great when it first came out everyone got it (cuz it's free) but then it got... obscenely repetitive.
I didn't want to go through the process of downloading all the custom made map packs... and so there were only 7 maps. And unless valve decided to update it, it's stuck like that
I doubt that valve will, alien swarm was released as a platform for developers, which was the only reason it was free. They make a lot of money from games that were originally mods. I.E. Killing Floor, and Dino D-day.
Neither of those are Valve properties. Next time try Counter Strike and Team Fortress.

UT3 isn't- Ok it is... I want to go into Denial about it because I just bought it like 2 months ago.
Battlefield 2 is pretty dead.

Assassin's Creed Brotherhood isn't that old, but I can barely find games for it on the PS3. Damned shame because it was one of the most unique multiplayer experiences I had in ages.

Buy the original Unreal Tournament. It's still alive and kicking, not to mention vastly superior to any of those...things that they call UT nowadays.

I used to have it on dreamcast. I got it for PS2 but that one has no Online. (They made the Dreamcast one online, but not on PS2. That pisses me off.

And your right. Original is WAY better.

AssCreedBro might as well be dead for how long you need to wait for a match.

Chronicals of Riddick: Assault on Dark Athena is even deader than that. Which is a damn shame because the Riddick mode was fucking awesome.

Not true, it's only a few weeks since I had a lot of matches with a couple of my mates in Red Faction Guerilla. Not that I like the game ('cept for the hammering of the people), but it ain't dead on PC. At least not in Europe.

OT: To the best of my knowledge, Half Life 2 Death Match has all but gone the way of the dodo. I'd also say, most FPS games more than ten years old. Not all, CS is a good example of staying power, but most. Doubt you'd find games in the original Serious Sam, for instance. 'course, I don't know if people with the old game (ie. me) can play with those who bought the newfangled version. No matter, I suck at it. :p

Ninja'd. It's a real shame, because that game promised a LOT. Guess it needs a lot more than nice graphics and cool gameplay to stay alive.

Other than that, Shattered Horizon suffered an unfair death. The gameplay mechanics were quite nice, adding the 3D movement and the "turn systems off to be stealthy but be effectively deaf and blind beyond your cone of vision" option.

And Skate / Skate 2. I may be cheating, there may still be people in those games, but every game is an unfair TonyHawkization of a game that should be the opposite. Instead of fun gameplay you are subjected to people that I honestly can't understand how can they keep up those combos (and I went online a while ago, so it's possible even they got tired)
