Long time no see :P Today I wanna ask you to help me find a certain game. I hope you can manage it. Ok, straight to the point. I'm looking for a PC game similar to the famous Playstation exclusive - Killzone. The game has to be an FPS taking place in more or less distant future about one marine or a squad of them fighting in a war against some hostile alien race or equally hostile futuristic army. I want the game to be fast-paced with a lot of action, cuz I don't like games where you have to cover a lot and shoot occasionally. Also, the more dark the atmosphere is, the better. I hate games where the colours are bright and cheerful, I want darkness, blood and death. If you don't know what type of game I expect to see here, I give you the gameplay from first Killzone: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ghy4aLYy5As&feature=player_embedded

Games I don't wanna see here:

-Halo

-Crysis

-Project: Snowblind (I'm playing it at the moment, but I can see I'm going to complete it soon)

-Chrome

-Aliens vs Predator

My rig:

My specs:
Processor: AMD Athlon 64 X2 5000+ 2.6Ghz (2 cores)
RAM: 3GB
Graphics: GeForce 8600GT 256MB
Graphics driver: Microsoft DirectX 10
System: Windows Vista Business 32-bit SP2

Hope you can find something for me. I'm waiting for ideas.

Metro 2033or Quake 4 maybe?

I think Fear fits aswell, somewhat, it does have mechs afterall :P

There have been very few futuristic fps games overall the last few years.

For someone not owning a PS2, like me? Very difficult. I checked some info about Nuclear Dawn - it looks promising, but I read it's focused on multiplayer and I don't really like mp shooters, so nope. About Metro 2033 - I's probably not gonna even run on my rig. Even if it will, it'll lag a lot. I played F.E.A.R. recently. It was interesting but it is not similar in any way to Killzone. Can you think of something different?

I'd say Bulletstorm. It reminded me of Killzone. Although it isn't dark. It has a lot of color, but the gameplay and writing remind me of killzone.

It reminds me of Killzone a lot too. I think I'll download a demo and try it out. If you have any other ideas, write them here.

Statistically speaking, everyone in the world owns 2.5 PS2's, so this is a shock.

They're like $40 now, but I can't really think of any Killzone-ish games on PC.

Killzone is a bad game.

Play Riddick, Stalker, or maybe Fear.

I didn't realize someone could get so offended at an incredibly inoffensive joke.

So that is shocking at least.

@squishy As mitu said, it's so far the closest thing to KZ I ever saw. The bad news is: It's in alpha state, so we'll have to wait at least 2 years before there's a playable, bug-free demo and about a year before there's full version of it. Have any other ideas, folks?

Yeah, definitely Quake 4, i recommend you play that game since it seems to fit in place with what you're looking for.

Escape from Butcher Bay perhaps? Unlike Killzone, it's actually a good game.

Even though I like Q4, it's really hard to get a retail copy in my country (and even if it's on Steam, I don't want to make an account there, cuz it will be useless for me).

@Socijalisticka

It's not very similar to KZ. And I agree with you that KZ is bad - it's too slow for an FPS, but it has awesome plot and atmosphere. That's why I'm looking for something similar on PC.

Actually Killzone 2 is a very good fps game that can only work on consoles. I wish more console FPS games did what Killzone 2 does instead of failing at attempting to recreate the PC FPS experience on consoles.

Star Wars Republic Commando ... maybe. It might be a bit too colourful for your taste. Otherwise, +1 for Bulletstorm. You could look into Hard Reset as well, but I haven't played it fully.

Far Cry 2 is amazing but you've got some weak specs for it. Tribes would be good. And Team Fortress 2

except for the fact that he doesnt want a MP game. so i would suggest hard reset....unfortunatly for tc though, i think you have to dl the steam client to get it though since i dont know any other way...

That's a shame, it's very similar.

Chronicles of Riddick: Escape From Butcher Bay is one of my favorite games of all times. It's a very gritty game, the action is set in a prison that is thick with atmosphere, in which you can kill your enemies in various creative ways (like putting a screwdriver into another guy's neck, for example). But i don't think you'll like it, because it's a Adventure/Stealth hybrid with FPS elements (the gunplay is decent, but not that great).

I thought it had already been released. I came across it like a year ago now and it was being made by a small team so I was not expecting it to take years to make :P.

 That's what I was talking about. It's a little too colourful for my taste, but other than that it suits my needs perfectly. Gonna try the demo (if there's one available) and share my opinion about it.

Doom 3 can get pretty dark. You fight monsters. Technically, they're at Mars. That would make them aliens.

The problem is Doom 3 is very slow-paced. Even boss fights which are supposed to be full of action are really slow. Also, it's not really similar to KZ.

Well regardless of your specs, I'm simply stating that Crysis 2 is a PC game which is quite similar to Killzone in how it plays. Maybe try to upgrade and then pick up Crysis 2, can't think of any FPS which play like Killzone and run off a 8600gt.
