There was a fps game called Greed, it was pretty cool, like a shittier version of Blood. I played the demo on some PC gamer CD around 1995/1996 but I can't seem to find anything about it when looking for it now :/

hmm.. it could very well be the same game, although I'm seeing "In pursuit of greed" has a bit of a high-tech vibe where as the game I remember was more ancient themed. I'm also certain it was just called "Greed". Anyway, it's been 20 years so my memory could have decayed in that time, but I've just seen the gameplay video and I'm pretty sure that isn't the same game. Investigating further...

Yeah I'm looking on Wikipedia and can't see a game like that called Greed. Maybe it was like secondary name or something non related to game name, could it be an expansion or something? The only game I can think of like that is Hexen or Heretic
I just can't find it. One key feature i remember was Ankhs (they were either ankh projectiles which enemies threw at you, or they were the game's medikits, can't remember now)
It depends what the theme is really. I would love it if somebody would have the balls to pull a game like Postal or Redneck Rampage in today's oversensitive climate. Just senseless violence in every day world, there is enough futuristic and military themed fpses around. Then name it something like Fucking Bastards or similar.
Heresy! SC looks nice and all but I'd much rather reflex or reborn or someone was getting that sort of money rather than it going to some poxy space sim
I looked into Elite, and it looks pretty good... we 'll have to see how the two really pan out when they go live. Either way, it's a good time to be around if you're a space sim fan. I played the shit out of the original Elite on the Atari STE :)
I don't like names made of common words that confuse the fuck out of search engines. Reflex was bit of a bold title, as there's already other "Reflex" games out there.
Reborn was even more unfortunate with their title, as there's some popular anime called Reborn- something, hogging in a shit ton of searches.
