Games you know will never come in your lifetime

[psychguy57]

A reboot to the Thief series

 

[Get_A_Grip_]

Mirrors Edge 2.

I loved the art style, except for the cutscenes.
I loved the soundtrack.
I loved the way the combat controls S U C K E D so bad that it discouraged you from engaging enemies and encouraged you to run.
I loved the chase scenes.
I loved the movement controls. Moving all of your actions to only two buttons made it easy to execute those awesome wallrun to swing to coil to slide moments.

Yeah, I'll shut up now before I make y'all sick.

Legacy of Kain 6

Actually, I'd settle for a prequel that gave more of Raziel's back story

 

[Brawndo]

Sequels to any of the games I enjoyed from now-dead series like:

Freedom Fighters
Lords of the Realm
Hidden and Dangerous
Hitman


And after the commercial failure that was Dragon Rising, I doubt there will ever be another Operation Flashpoint game

Fallout: Washington.

Apologies for not reading the sarcasm/irony but Fallout 3 was set in Washington no?

No sarcasm or irony at all. I was referring to the state. I would normally go off on someone making a comment like that, insulting their level of education and such, but I won't because you're probably in another country or something considering how late it is here in the US (at least where I'm at, here in WASHINGTON), and as such I don't expect you to know anything about the geography of any country but your own.

Apologies, and thanks for the lack of insults! I stand corrected. I admit my knowledge of US state locations is substandard. However, in this case I do know that Washington is located in the Northwest having carried out research on salmon and fish pass on the Columbia River. I would normally at this stage attempt to leave you slightly confused by saying that its lunchtime in Hampshire but I won't as its late where you are (by Hampshire I mean southern county in England).

Living in Oregon I happen to know exactly where the State of Washington is located and I have to say way to screw up east and west good sir.

Washington is the red one right above Oregon (also red) which is just north of California.

Ehh... West is the direction on a map that shows where Europe is relative to Asia

Washington state, my friend, is located in the northwest US. About as northwest as it gets, as are you. I advise you check a compass sometime soon.

(ouch, never thought how condescending that sounds on paper)

Hmm could have sworn that you said North east. Damn you speed reading! I apologize for some reason I thought you said North East.

Damn speed reading... that wasn't me who posted.

 

[The Robotman]

A true sequel to Shadow of the Colossus, or a continuation of the amazing series that began with Ico. Those games really touched me, and it's a shame that the developers don't elaborate further into the beautiful world that they have on their hands. If I was with the dev team, I'd already have pumped out three or four more games. How they don't have inspiration to keep shooting for the stars with their fantastic art direction is beyond me, but hey..
Games that won't come out in my lifetime.

You mean like...

...this one?

 

[RandomHer0]

A 2D sonic game that doesn't screw with everything that made the original good.
(looking at you sonic 4)
speed, simplicity, interesting bosses,just jump and spin dash.
I would pay $100 for a game with the same 1993 graphics and controls. but they only think these days about the damn kids.
This game will never come out, and thus i weep.

WTF? You people are impossible! Sonic 4 had elements of the old genesis games oozing out of every fucking orifice. If that game had been any more retro, it'd have been a fucking remake!!
...yeeeeash... well there's another group for entry onto my list of people who need good smacks upside the head with 2x4s.

After waiting for quite a while for a decent sonic game, I agree that the last came the closest, and on another note i am loving the shit out of colours. But im not a fan of the abandonment of what i find essential to these games, precise platforming and speed.
Sonic 4 was a joke in both respects. A spin dash of a ledge would bring you to a stand still and you would almost get no speed gain out of using it, i don't get the crazy physics engines these days but it doesn't gel with me. And you needed anything BUT platforming skills even in the later mad gear levels. It was never broken, and didnt needed to be fixed.
And games can be made now without screwing with the old formula, look at megaman 9 and 10. The inclusion of the kids mode in 10 is what Sonic 4 feels like to me.
I am critical, overly so, and i get that. But when a dev team had the winning formula 4 times and then scrapped it to add "tricks" and and an on rails homing attack. I am a little ticked. its like shitting on my childhood, so i believe im allowed to vent.
Save your 2X4 for someone without a valid argument.

Sorry, I was kinda venting too. As a creative person myself, I get kinda sick and tired of hearing fans whine, esp. since most of the complaints are unreasonable. ...not saying that was the case with you, just in general.
As for Sonic 4, I didn't notice any of the things you talked about. Of course I don't think I tried to spin dash of a ledge.
I'm not sure how you can say no platforming skills are required. I had a particularly hard time in the casino level where you had to jump across the flipping cards.

...wait a minute, they had the winning formula 4 times? Oh, you're counting Sonic and Knuckles as a separate game. Yeah, I don't count it as it's own game, more of and expansion pack; because I know that Sonic 3 & Knuckles is the game Sonic Team originally intended Sonic 3 to be.

Ya i always considered them separate because when i was young i got them as different cartridges for my genesis. Did they come together on that system?
And by no skills, sorry i was speaking in sweeping generalities. I had a few tough spots with those cards too. I'm just happy with the lack of 3D sonic right now, and i was expecting something they directly connected to the original franchise run to be something more similar. I'm not looking to hate on an obvious upward trend by SEGA and Sonic Team.

 

[John the Gamer]

A good version of SPORE.

you just made me die a little inside
that game was gonna be soooo awsome
then they were like
hey this should be for litte kids to.
/sob

Yeah. I missed the under water stage, building cities under water and proper scaling. I went to earth, and a colony with 15(!) inhabitants was equal in size to, oh, say: Friggin' North America.

Fork you SPORE.

And once you got into the spacestage, you got called back to your planets every 10 seconds or so because some pirates attacked and they're too big retards to install some planetary-missile system to counter that. I'm just a space-ship captain, tasked with the sole responsibility to meet and greet other races and represent ours on the interplanetary diplomatic networks (perhaps not such a great idea) I'm not you babysitter for crying out loud. just build some spaceships of your own.

Also why can't you swim? and why can you only fly for short distances? Also why can't I make a dragon that can breath fire? etc...

I don't know...Uncharted 57?

Wow, that was easy.

Huh? What system?? No no, I'm very much aware that they were released separately. With the whole lock-on thing, where you could plug the Sonic 2&3 cartridges into the Sonic & Knuckles cartridges to order to play as Knuckles in those two respective games. The thing is when you did that with the Sonic 3 cartridge you gained access to Sonic 3 & Knuckles, which I'm certain was what Sonic the Hedgehog 3 was originally intended to be, but got got short due to deadlines or some other damn thing. The evidence to support this supposition is written all over those games.

Anyway, about Sonic 4, I just look at it and think "isn't this the game Sonic fans have been pining for for the last X number of years?" and to hear people complain that it's still not good enough is mind boggling. Yeah I know it has it's faults, but what game doesn't? The original Sonic games had their faults.

BC

It was a game being developed by Peter Molyneux's Lionhead studios for the original XBox.

You played as cavemen and fought dinosaurs.


Dammit Peter Molyneux!!! Stop wasting your time with this Natal Milo nonsense and un-cancel this game already!!!!!!

Seriously how many games are out there based on those cavemen movies from the 60's and 70's.
