And Black is an AWESOME game if you haven't played it already. (For PS2 and Xbox.) So the spiritual successor is going to be Bodycount, which was apparently revealed by OXM. I am so thrilled.
Just read about in Gameinformer...Speaking of which, they interviewed GOG.
Looking forward to some destruction with this game, along with their F1 game. The rest of them is crap.
I wish they had ported the first game for PC, too. :/
Black was absolute gun porn, that game was one of the best looking ones on the PS2, many hours were spent on it.
My only beef with it was the completely retarded cutscenes.
I remember wanting the game when it first game out... but then I forgot about it.
Shooting stuff up sounds fun though.
To be honest, I never really got it. Yes it was, as Menelkir says, gun porn, but I just never saw anything in it that set it apart from any other fps. Don't get me wrong, I like first person shooters, although perhaps I have been spoiled by games that are more than that (I'm looking at you S.T.A.L.K.E.R., Operation Flashpoint, No One Lives Forever,.....(several hours later)...ing, ARMA, Clive Barker's Undying, Call Of Duty etc.)
In summary, I think I shall respectfully pass.

That's exactly why I love it. It's gun porn.
I didn't really get into it. Aside from the visuals, nothing was really hooking me in.
Why on earth am I one of two people here who love Black?

Because most people can no longer appreciate the simple things in life. Like Captain Ash said, there's nothing like a big gun in your hands and the wind in your hair.

So, so true.
I despised Black. Guns were inaccurate to real life weaponry, and the silenced pistol when fired alerted enemies more than a normal non-silenced gun. It wasn't even gun-porn, just a bad attempt at gun porn eg. the gun version of Ron Jeremy trying to crawl on the October Playmate of 1940.
Black was awesome. I'd buy it in a second if it was on PC.
