Games You Want To See

[Gorecki]

I want a FPS like Halo where you get to play a bad-ass hard man saving the world from the aliens, with voice communications to your fellow marines via a head set. I think it'd open up even more tactical options and styles of play.

It would be really nice if, during my frequent games of Halo, my constant cries of 'Get in the 'hog, get in the fuckin' 'hog!' , 'Down in front' and 'GRENADE!' weren't actually in vain .

Oh and Ghostbusters GTA style would be perfect, too.

... but never a game that endeavours to look like claymation.

Apart from Platypus:



And it doesn't look like claymation, it is claymation.



Muttley

And Skullmonkeys.

I love both of those

Skullmonkeys is especially aces, shame I can't stand the author tho

I'd like a massive co-op Halo 3. Someone could be Master Chief, the rest Marines. (or a Master Chief clone squadron )

Datastorm 2 or Dropzone 2 (2005?).
Problem is, I'd have to find a proper arcade stick for my PS2 (where they should be released) to play it proper.

GTA IV on PS3.

A brilliant pinball designed for fullscreen 1600x1200 resolution (that can kind of give the hires feeling you got from Night Mission). BTW, why don't computer pinball use the fact that backgrounds can be changed and animated and layouts can physically change in ways not possible to fit in with a real machine?

And Skullmonkeys.

Don't forget The Neverhood.


I'll have a bit of Hitchhikers' Guide mixed with Elite and some Virus
stylee once you get on the Planet. Hold the ketchup.
The annoying thing is the controls ... you would ideally need a Star Wars
cab controller for the flying bits.

I can't say who the developer is, because I don't remember. It's not turn-based, but you can pause it at any time. I remember it was rock-hard, though, was true 3D, most of the objects were interactive in some manner, and you could destroy most walls and objects except for hardened ones (eg, massive blast shielding).

As far as claymation rendering, y'all could do that with the appropriate models and texture/bump/normal-mapping, innit? 3D artists, weigh in on this one. Would it be feasible to make a 3D game that just looked like real claymation?

1. Settlers of Catan multiplayer for the DS.
2. Escape from Colditz board game adapted for the DS - solo and multiplayer would be nice, and choice of nationalities. Dammit, I LIKE playing the Germans.
3. Chamionship Manager 00-01 for the DS - not real keen on the newer versions.
4. and me and moobaa would agree that Iridis Alpha on the DS would be nice too.
5. Shit, almost forgot - Subbuteo on the DS would be ace. Touch screen is just perfect for that.
6. A bronze-age micro-management game of controlling your "tribe". I have played a PBM, called TribeNet, that is excellent, but I want to play this much quicker than a fortnight turn around. Breed your animals, research your "tech", build log walls, explore, build villages, farm, etc. And if no other bastard writes it, then I bloody well will, when I finish my degree. Note: I played TribeNet for 7 years - I am a fanatic on this one.

And if I get just 1 of those I'll be dead set stoked.

Ooh--good call.
