But yeah I remember learning how to play fps games through this games multiplayer against bots (it was early 2000's and our household still did not have internet we were slightly late on that but I still had loads of fun)

Some fun facts about the PC build (which is objectively worse): - It runs on the Half-Life (GoldSrc) engine, which is from 1998 (earlier if you count development). GoldSrc itself is a custom build of the id Quake engine - The console version runs on a version of the idTech 3 engine, which is (was) more modern. The console versions all ran at 60 FPS, and look amazing for their time - The console versions use the Need for Speed engine for the driving missions (which is why they have a different loading screen and run at 480i instead of 480p); the console versions have an "action" executable (normal missions) and a "driving" executable which loads the Need for Speed engine. I don't know why they didn't do the same on PC, but I'm going to guess that using two different engines on a platform where everyone has completely different hardware is a nightmare. Versus a console, where all the hardware (for each version) is the same - The music that plays on the PC version if you fail (like when you punched the guy in the castle) is from the PS1 intro of "The World is Not Enough", which is only kind of bizarre: kzread.info/dash/bejne/oKBlra6HlZy1fc4.html

I did not expect the pc port to be a HL1 mod

“Are you ready?…. OoOoooohhh I know you see me standing here”

I think the nightfire PC uses the gold source engine from hl1

The reason the PC port was so bad was because the architecture from the consoles was so completely different from what PCs were built on at that time. The reverse was frequently true as well, where the console port of a PC game was just awful, graphically mostly, but frequently with awkward control schemes.

I feel very mixed about the PC version. One one hand, it has more standard levels which I prefer, but on the other hand, the shooting is terrible (especially in later levels where headshots are no longer a one-hit kill) and if you forget what you have to do (say if you skipped a cutscene) you might be running around in circles for a while, it's terrible at giving indications.

The flashing hand glitch goes away when you change whatever you have in your hand, game is trying to load what the level wants you to start with, but is deciding between that and what you just had

1.) Paris Prelude (not included) - it jumps right to the mission in Drake's Castle 2.) No driving missions (e.g. Alpine Escape, Enemies Vanquished, Deep Descent, Island Infiltration) 3.) The missions on the PC version also have different names and are structured differently (e.g. In the consoles you confront Rook and Kiko simultaneously in "Countdown." Instead, you end up knocking Rook into a fan on the PC version in an earlier mission before taking down Kiko.)

I actually watched it in both 60 and 30 fps, the hand glitches in both.. it's just fucking broken.

If Todd Howard has the balls to resell Skyrim again for the PS5 and XSX/S, then you can play through this port.

Ok I know you don’t want to keep playing… but this is just such good content 😂

This version, in the words of Civvie11 is "The Cursed Randy Version" (which he calls the most recent port of DN3D, which I don't think is bad, just kinda stripped in favor of an exclusive Fifth episode).

So this is why it's only licensed game that uses a Valve engine

I enjoyed this game 18 years ago...

Whenever you lose on a level instead of waiting on the hour long exit music, you can just pause and re-load.

Ty for playing this

I picked this up at a store called "pamida" in my small town for about 5 bucks, payed in quarters, absolutely loved it and do not remember it being this much of a pain.

Was one of the unfortunate souls to own this version as a kid. Don't remember it being THAT bad, but having played both, the console defiantly is the best version(s). That being said I do remember having fun with PC multiplayer. Had a really neat Fort Knox level.

I actually grew up with this, but by accident. I ordered the return of the king game, and it sent a 5 game pack that included this and nfs hot pursuit 2.
