Deus Ex 3: This time It's Cybersonal

awful, just awful

 

You should flog yourself for that one, meta. Or whatever it is your people do when they feel such great shame.

Oh, and maybe Republic commando 2... but I'm not sure there'll be one.

 

And you should all be ashamed. No one mentioned Kotor 3. How DARE you?! :D

I kinda presumed this was a thread on games that we actually know are coming, not just wishful thinking.

Hellgate London.

9/3

I'm picking up LotR Online today, but I've been playing the open beta for a couple weeks already and I get to carry my characters over. So far I'm getting the sam feeling I did wth WoW initially, which is great. Lots of folks who bash WoW can't seem to remember that before they reached the higher levels, the low level experience was simply fantastic. LotR captures that pretty well.

Half-Life 2: Episode Two.

A warning to those who haven't played Episode One yet, as this preview contains spoilers to major events.

I LOVE Half Life 1 and 2. I Played Half Life 2:Episode 1 and i was left unsatisfied. And i don't even recall totally what happened in it, so when the next episode FINALLY comes along I'm not going to place the stories side by side. Its like opening a twix wrapper and noticing you've only got one.

 

I'm going to wait till all of the episodes come out, same for SiN. and The Longest Journey.

Not much of a long wait, they are all out. And by "they are," I mean "it is."

Don't forget Ray Bradbury was apoplectic with Michael Moore's (in his opinion totally inappropriate) tribute to his classic novel Fahrenheit 451.

I felt like Fahrenheit 451 was a dry run of 1984. Many similar themes in a dystopian environment, but one ends happier than the other. I rather like the sad ending because it captures the hopelessness of the whole struggle.

Except Nineteen Eighty-Four was published four years before Fahrenheit 451.

 

Sins of a Solar Empire is a RTS 4X that might be okay ... has anyone heard anything else about it?

One of the most frustrating things in any free-for-all multiplayer game is when it is clear there is a dominant powerhouse, but you can't convince anyone to help you take it down and reestablish the balance of power. In response to that, we've come up with the bounty system. Players can direct credits to increase a pool of bounty against another player. If you destroy any of that player's structures or ships, you earn credits out of the pool proportional to the value of the thing you destroyed. A key point that is essential to the wonderful world of backstabbing is that the placing of bounty is anonymous. It is possible to be in a trade pact with a player but at the same time be using the profits of that venture to make the bounty against your trade partner more and more lucrative, inciting others to attack him. Another interesting twist is there is a non-player-controlled faction called the marauders (a mix of opportunists and rebels who disagree with the coalition's policies) who respond to bounty levels, among other things. As a final note, bounty can become a viable way for an economically focused player to get his dirty work done without firing a shot.

Episodic gaming sucks when the wait between episodes is this long.

yea really. Are the developers trying to make me have a life?!

I see what you're implying

 

And they ought to make a HL3 instead of wait one year for 3 hrs playtime.

This one is 8hrs compared to Episode 1's 5hr40".

God of War: Chains of Olympus :woot: :woot:

Two Worlds (aka Blatant Oblivion Rip-off):

Still, if it's like Oblivion but without auto-scaling of enemies, I'm there.

This one is 8hrs compared to Episode 1's 5hr40".

 

That's good to know

Sins of Solar Empire

I think once enough time has passed a game stops being an episode and becomes another sequel.

People truly will whine about anything.
