| Three Wishes -Sared - May 14 10:59pm | |||||

I was walking down the street today when I came upon a magical lamp that released a genie when I rubbed it. The genie offered me three wishes! How cool is that?  My first wish, was that some development studio somewhere, would come up with a new freaking idea. I Saw yet another Medal of Honor expansion (not Spearhead, that other one) at the store today. I believe Penny-Arcade described it as "Great game, can we PLEASE have another genre?" Quite frankly, the entire gaming industry is running out of ideas. UbiSoft as a small edge on me with Uru, Ages Beyond Myst, but other than that, I can't see too much else peeking over the horizion. Okay, sure, we are all going to be blown away by Half-Life 2 WHENEVER it comes out, and Halo 2, AND Quake 4, but until someone cheaply mplements a VR interface OR comes up with a completely revolutionary style of gameplay, its STILL just going to boil down to the same style of game, over and over again. Basic gameplay, Deathmatch, Capture the Flag, and an Assult/Siege mode every now and again. My second wish was that LucasArts would pull thier heads OUT of thier rectums and actually work on a sequel that I WANT to play. What ever happened to the X-Wing series? There was X-Wing, then TIE Fighter, then they shared the stage in X-Wing VS TIE Fighter, then there was X-Wing: Alliance, now isn't it Tie Fighter's turn again? Oooh, whats this! Lets graft a space-sim into an MMORPG! LucasArts and Sony apparently think that by including Jump to Lightspeed, the new space-expansion, as a part of the Star Wars Galaxies package, starving space-sim junkies will come flocking to thier monthly subscriptions. Of all the games that Lucasarts has under development right now, Republic Commando is the only one that has me remotely interested. It appears that Lucasarts is attempting to throw an SW spin on the Rainbow Six/Rogue Spear style of gameplay. With an extra emphasis on squad-based tactics and geamplay, such as seen in R6, or SOCOM, this game has a very good chance of getting where it wants to go. For my third wish, I wished for a billion dollars. Hey, I may be petty, but I'm not stupid.  |

My wish list is that I would have more time to play the few games I have. I never got to play X-wing to the end or BoP for x-wing vs Tie or any stages of X-wing Alliance. I have only played JK2 and JK3 SP once and can't contemplate purcahsing KOTOR or KOTOR2. So i care not for new games i just want to have time to play the ones I have.

i'm stoked about Republic Commando as well. looks like it could be a perfect mix of halo, star wars, and rainbow six but i agree, some "out of the box" thinking is in order for gameage these days. although i do like the sounds of the small Doom3 deathmatch style of sneak/think/hunt/kill. from what i hear the multiplayer in the new splintercell: pandora tomorrow game is supposed to be kinda like that and quite cool too. _______________ this is the internet, be serious damn it! |

I think because the games all start looking and playing the same, I find myself sticking to Jedi most of the time. There is no game like it really, but it lacks some modes I wish were available. One of the styles of multiplayer games Jedi could have is a real push-type capture point mode. Siege is allright, but it would be more fun if both sides were pushing at the same time like as in Firearms or Day of Defeat. It also would be nice if someone made a mod with some really cool blaster pistols/rifles to liken after the machine gun lineup you find in Rainbow 6, Counter-Strike, Day of Defeat, et. al. Push style play with instagib from a variety of blaster weapons is what I think would be very fun. Another thing that would be cool to experiment with is taking strafe left or right out of the gun game. Its been around since Doom, but it isn't very lifelike. _______________ Gone but hopefully not forgotten... |

I heard from PCGamer Magazine that Republic Commando is more of a Halo-type game. You can still command your units and stuff, but they never die Republic Commando looks really good from what I've seen Great article Sared, keep up the awesome stuff! |
