Title: coupla game i'm looking forward to Post by: Everous on August 08, 2003, 01:12:06 AM gee, i just realised that theres a ton of games in the works right now, all of them with a lot riding on it...doom III, Half-Life2, UT2k4, Deus Ex 2...but theres a couple that really caught my eye
Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse (http://www.3do.com/4horsemen) http://www.3do.com/4horsemen (http://www.3do.com/4horsemen) i beg of you...go visit that site, the art, the ideas, the sheerly excellent trailer (and you will watch the trailer :cool:)...a coupla quotes from their site: Quote Motion capture is being done by the SmashCut Action Team, the people who worked on fight scenes from The Matrix and Fight Club. Quote With a budget of eight-million dollars, this is 3DO's most ambitious project to date and the publisher is bringing in the hordes of talent. Quote Perhaps the most interesting talent behind the game is renowned comic-book artist Simon Bisley, who is designing the game's characters. Bisley's work includes numerous Lobo, Judge Dredd, Batman, and Heavy Metal comics and covers. WOW...i cannot wait for this to be released -------------- Lineage II (http://www.lineage2.com/) http://www.lineage2.com/ (http://www.lineage2.com/) not much i can say about this really, you have to check it out for yourself...maybe its the scores of original content (the developers aren't into cheap reskins of armour "a la Diablo2") ...maybe its the huge fanbase...could be the latest unreal tech engine rendering lush enviroments...might be the amazing anime influenced art...or it could be the actually half tallented developers anyway, i'm definately looking forward to this game...problem is, i might not ever buy it :o ...depends on how well i'm able to afford the monthly bill (assuming, as a MMORPG it'll have a monthly bill)...i haven't gotten into MMO gaming before due to the problem...but this might just be worth it -------------- comments? moments of enlightenment you wanna share with me?... any of you guys looking forward to some hot games in the next few months? Title: coupla game i'm looking forward to Post by: SS on August 08, 2003, 10:54:40 AM Oh dear, oh dear, oh dear. :rolleyes:
Doom 3 - Crap. UT2004 - Nothing special. Half-Life 2 - Hopeful, still balancing on a knife edge though, could go either way. Deus Ex 2 - Aint going to live up to their original hype, going to be shadowed by all these other new games, but still going to be good. Same way as the original. Four Horsemen - a splash screen, an introduction, a loading page, and even then the useless website wouldn't load. I can't be arsed with all this waiting! Lineage II - looks interesting, but nothing to convince me yet. Plenty of games have promised and not fulfilled, I'm not sure this one is any different to the rest. We can hope though, along with hoping they don't charge expensive monthly fees. But now for the real "One To Watch": STALKER: Oblivion Lost - this game I have a great feeling about. Seems like it's gonna be a cross between Jagged Alliance 2, Soldier of Fortune II and Half-Life. Really looking forward to SOL more than any other game (even DX2) at the moment. I just hope once it comes out it gets the recognisation it deserves. Title: coupla game i'm looking forward to Post by: Everous on August 08, 2003, 11:27:26 AM Doom 3, UT2004, Half-Life 2, Deus Ex 2 were just examples of big name games...to be honest i may not even buy any of them
four horsemen wouldn't load for you?...damn...you don't know what you're missing <_< i got a mirror for the trailer, you can download it here: [scratch that, dosen't work] anyway, be patient, and don't skip the intro...its actually a short game trailer i've heard of STALKER: Oblivion Lost...and i just took a look around their site, but it seems in terms of scale, budget and backing, theres no way it can measure up to the Four Horsemen...saw the trailer too, and it looks like it'll turn out to be a classy game...though hardly a revolutionary one Title: coupla game i'm looking forward to Post by: Daimao on August 08, 2003, 12:44:32 PM World of Warcraft
Title: coupla game i'm looking forward to Post by: Everous on August 08, 2003, 01:23:51 PM yeah, that looks sweet...but i probably won't buy it...because if i'm going to play a MMO game...then it'll be lineageII alone, theres no way i'm footing two monthly bills
(unless the lineage team get stoned and decide not to do monthly bills) Title: coupla game i'm looking forward to Post by: SS on August 08, 2003, 05:16:25 PM Quote four horsemen wouldn't load for you? No, I couldn't be arsed with all the splash screen crap.First I get a title screen, then I get an introduction which sits on "SUMMONING" for far too long, until I give up and press SKIP INTRO, then I get a loading screen, then I get to click on the silly doors, then I eventually get the main site itself to begin loading, which itself takes two seconds too long to load and causes scrollbars on my 864pixel high screen! :angry: Title: coupla game i'm looking forward to Post by: Everous on August 08, 2003, 05:58:18 PM @_@
bleh, i didn't notice anything on my 512k connection... Title: coupla game i'm looking forward to Post by: SS on August 08, 2003, 06:19:04 PM I noticed on both my 512KB connection and my 10MB connection. :P
Anyhow, after all the hassle getting into the website, the game aint nothing special - or at least I don't think it will be, all there is at the moment is a load of pictures! Couldn't even see what type of game tis going to be! :miffed: Title: coupla game i'm looking forward to Post by: mole on August 08, 2003, 09:38:52 PM if the game is as good as the site ill get it
Title: coupla game i'm looking forward to Post by: SS on August 08, 2003, 10:01:42 PM Which game/site? :blink:

there are some bugs and stuff, but word is, the core gameplay, graphics, engine totally rocks the boat ;) Title: coupla game i'm looking forward to Post by: Rug on August 18, 2003, 11:10:52 AM Lineage 2 looks decent - I may be checking that out.
Graphics-wise it looks like Morrowind with graphics to full and a framerate above 6fps... Title: coupla game i'm looking forward to Post by: mole on August 21, 2003, 05:27:11 PM WH40K; fire warrior looks sweet. will try and find web site later for final verdict though
Title: coupla game i'm looking forward to Post by: Rug on August 21, 2003, 06:29:28 PM Yeah, Fire Warrior does look good.... PSM2's preview says its pretty uber too :)
They havent released a decent 40k-Universe Computer game since Final Liberation, So I'm looking forward to it, Title: coupla game i'm looking forward to Post by: RipperRoo on August 21, 2003, 06:52:07 PM /me is still trying to work out which of the games i want the most....
prolly SC2, HL2, Halo and ZOE2 Title: coupla game i'm looking forward to Post by: Filran on August 22, 2003, 04:51:38 PM For all you people who said FFX-2, I think I'm gunna barf when I play it. One, they aren't wearing enough clothing. Two, I'm gunna get confused with the job system. Three, I've seen the good ending; it bothered me. Four, it has multiple endings ranging from Bad, to Secret. Five, how the fish do they bring Tidus back? Shouldn't it be impossible? Six, from what I heard, only 3 characters, though I have heard of one male character. Seven, you can't use any of the characters from the first game other than Yuna and Rikku. Eigth, the turn system I loved because I could rock on it is gone. Back to the annoying ATB that I can't take a nap in because I'm sleepy. Nine, first FF sequel I've heard of; sequels are usually bad and made because they made much money with the first one.
*sighs* I'll just have to wait and see... Title: coupla game i'm looking forward to Post by: Everous on August 22, 2003, 11:28:00 PM korean open beta testing for Lineage2 is ending soon
WHEN IS THE ENGLISH VERSION COMMING *goes to find some cheap whisky and a handgun* Title: coupla game i'm looking forward to Post by: Kamaru on August 30, 2003, 08:24:11 PM :hmmm: i dunno if im gonna like FFX-2 just because of the way they changed it... like there isn't gonna be any summons any more... thats gonna suck almost all of FF had summons... :huh:
Title: coupla game i'm looking forward to Post by: mole on August 30, 2003, 08:50:54 PM i like the look of some of the characters ;) so i may give it a go

Title: coupla game i'm looking forward to Post by: Filran on August 31, 2003, 05:49:26 AM No. It shalt be a BANE upon my existance. And... it'll die. And stuff. And yeah.

Title: coupla game i'm looking forward to Post by: mole on August 31, 2003, 01:49:49 PM how am i supposed to know :( its a final fantasy yet theres what 10, 11...12?
Title: coupla game i'm looking forward to Post by: Kamaru on August 31, 2003, 02:06:29 PM I liked FF8-10 so far... 7 is kewl too :cool:
Title: coupla game i'm looking forward to Post by: Lord Lanair on August 31, 2003, 10:27:03 PM Quote how am i supposed to know :( its a final fantasy yet theres what 10, 11...12? It's the game that never ends... Maybe they just kill off the people who created it, then find new ones to take their places? That would make it a final fantasy. LOL Title: coupla game i'm looking forward to Post by: mole on September 01, 2003, 06:16:22 PM yea but then they'd just make new characters and there'd be 30 more games :miffed:
