EA Reviving Classic Bullfrog Games?

[Sevre]

We need these games! Theme Park would be so awesome.

Go EA, I would love a new Dungeon keeper

If they could just make Dungeon Keeper 2 run in Vista I'd be happy.

You can run it on Vista if you right click on its icon --> go to properties --> compatibility and set it to a older running software (for example XP). At least that worked when a friend of mine needed to get it working.

It runs like old people screw and is filled with liberal amounts of graphical glitches. So maybe its a video card/directx problem, I don't know. But it definitely isn't playable.

"The hospital administrator is CHEATING!"

Bring back Theme Hospital.

 

[Woem]

I'm so glad they're not just going to do a remake of those games since I'm really starting to get sick of those. I always thought it was a shame that Dungeon Keeper 3 got canceled, and Populous The Beginning was the start of something beautiful (which in a way evolved into Lionsgate's first title: Black & White).

Now one can only hope they will also bring back the Magic Carpet series!

 

[Mojave]

Bring back the Bullfrog, FUCK YEAH!

A Theme Park revival could fill the void in my soul that formed when Atari and Chris Sawyer started stabbing each other with broken beer bottles and vowed to never work on any more Rollercoaster Tycoon games. Oh, I miss that kind of game.

And bring on some new Dungeon Keeper. Re-releasing the original two, less interest as I still have the CDs for them, but some new DK would make my cup floweth over.

But don't forget HiOctane! A re-release to PC or console would be smashing, a revised release (better graphics) would be divine, and a sequel would have me bouncing off the walls for months.

Hell yeah Hi-Octane! I don't really give a hoot about Theme Park, Hospital would be nice though. Populous and DK could definitely work, Road Rash would rock, but the one i'm gunning for is Syndicate, they could make that so awesome.

"The hospital administrator is CHEATING!"

Bring back Theme Hospital.

"Morgue patients are asked to be as quiet as possible"

 

[FightThePower]

"The hospital administrator is CHEATING!"

Bring back Theme Hospital.

"Morgue patients are asked to be as quiet as possible"

"Patients are reminded not to die in the corridors"

"Please don't feed the vermin. Thank you!"

That game was brilliant.

 

[Deviluk]

Ah, these are all the games I grew up with. Bring it!

 

[BonerMacTittyPants]

Oh man... I just hope there's a new Populous, and that it'll be a sequel to Populous 3: The Beginning. The newest NDS version was just fail.

And what about Theme Hospital?

 

[pffh]

Please be Dungeon Keeper 3, please be Dungeon Keeper 3, please be Dungeon Keeper 3, please be Dungeon Keeper 3, please be Dungeon Keeper 3.

OH GOD I want dungeon keeper 3.

I imagine a modern version of Magic Carpet with a gesture-based spell-casting game mechanic would be ideal for waggle controllers.

But don't forget HiOctane! A re-release to PC or console would be smashing, a revised release (better graphics) would be divine, and a sequel would have me bouncing off the walls for months.

I was reading down to see if anyone else was thinking what I was thinking, this is it!

 

[Capo Taco]

Reviving.... or reanimating into a horrible undeath?

 

[Grayl]

Dungeon Keeper! Syndicate Wars! Populous! Magic Carpet!

Please!

 

[Random Argument Man]

Did you just said Road Rash? I think I felt pure nostalgia for a moment.

 

[DjSehvun]

Magic Carpet! For the love of god make another Magic Carpet! Done right, of course.

 

[Avernus]

Hell yeah Hi-Octane! I don't really give a hoot about Theme Park, Hospital would be nice though. Populous and DK could definitely work, Road Rash would rock, but the one i'm gunning for is Syndicate, they could make that so awesome.

Syndicate is already a go, EA is butchering it as we speak.

But HiOctane, MAN was that fun. First the demo I got from PCGamer, then the full thing on the PSX. If only it had a couple more maps to race, and maybe three or four more "cars". Though the little zippy hover-sedan that looked like the BTTF Delorian was still the best. That and the cube van.

Man! I actually was about to ask here if my memory was right about Syndicate Wars being a Bullfrog game, I loved that game... but EA is butchering it you say? Is it a lack of faith in EA (understandable of course), or have you heard some specifics on what they are doing with it? Any links you may have would be grand.

 

[PurpleRain]

Man, Theme Hospital brings a flood of memories. That game was awesome fun!

 

[Zer_]

Oh lord please let it be Dungeon Keeper! I want a new Dungeon Keeper. Oh man I just splooged at the prospect of a Dungeon Keeper game with current graphics and physics. Anyone have a replacement pair of pants?

 

[Bretty]

I have actually been playing Theme Hospital for the last 4 weeks! Darn those earthquakes!

And yes Dungeon Keeper 1 and 2 are the greatest game! So fun!
