Thanks. You are correct in the intended purpose of this thread

I was really looking into Lost Odyssey as well

The Trailer for It, was Awesome.

Then I saw the Gamplay of it.

Turn-Based

Well of course it's turn based...even Final Fantasy games have those epic battle FMVs.

Since Final Fantasy is a Playstation dealie, I think it's a great idea for Microsoft to market a real RPG such as Lost Odyssey for all those that didn't get/want/can't afford a PS3 but still want that kind of game.

COMMAND

CONQUER
3
TIBERIUM WARS!
Born a c&c fan and I'll die as one (That's only considering I can die, which may or may not be true)

Mass effect
Fable 2
Halo 3
Perhaps Halo wars, but its more of an afterthought to me coz its an RTS, and I love them, its not something that makes me like "HOLY COW PREORDER KANE EDITION!"

But C&C 3 takes the Platinum metal for orsmness

Halo Wars does not strike me as a good game, Halo 3 is... a meh game right now.

Personally I'm looking forward to any game with gameplay in mind, but not graphics. By the looks of it, that's ALL that has been discussed about Halo 3. Sure, there's some other minor conversation about gameplay, but not really all that much.. okay a bubble shield, great..

Seriously, when in a game the most discussed thing of question is what the X button does, there's a problem.

So there-- I've said it. I don't anticipate Halo 3.

Portal looks fun. Simply because it's different and somewhat interesting.

There's really not much new you can do with a FPS that already hasn't been done except improve graphics. So my real final answer is: I don't really anticipate many new games at all..

ScottyGEE · Post by **ScottyGEE** » Tue Mar 13, 2007 11:03 pm

That's why you should play other genres...Honestly there are only a very small amount of FPS games that I ever want to play... Which are Goldeneye perfect dark 1 halo and halo 2 halflife 2 (xbox)...

The reason I look forward to halo 3 is because I'll be able to have the LAN events again with my friends (coz they along with me are pretty much bored of it)...

Otherwise I play other genre's as they are more original than FPS (WW2 ftl) and long lasting

yeah i'm going to try out tiberium wars when my bandwidth limit resets on the 15th, if it's good i'll wait until my walmart has the full version and have some fun there. From the screenshots and a few vids it looks pretty good, and somewhat worthwhile.

Half-Life 2 was a very fun game. Gears of War is a fun game, to an extent. I just hate the fact that the guys are so strong. I saw some people playing rainbow six: vegas, it seemed to implement some things from GoW (like the cover system) that I loved, but lacked many elements of realism. I loved Ghost Recon (the original) because of that. Fairly realistic, but a cover system would have been great.

I don't mean scary like, OMFG A GHOST NO *start crying and huddling in the corner peeing in pants*

I mean like creepy Environments and Character designs.

I know, but I would like to know why everyone finds the game, scary or creepy, or what have you.

Mabey I'm just jaded, and I don't know it

On a different note I suggest everyone takes a look at these links

I find them very interesting, especially the video demos.

Ya, thats pretty much the only game I'm currently looking forward too. I wish they'd hurry up and finish it, though 3DR has been quiet lately! Either they are playing too much prey, or... THEY ALMOST DONE WITH DUKE NUKEM!!!

I was kinda expecting a script based "This is mass, this is your source of income, blah blah" kinda tutorial where they give you a base and such.

In the full version (yes I bought it the first day it was out) the tutorial is pretty sweet; it starts you out with a menu where you can view a videos about a range of stuff, then you can go to the map (when you pressed tutorial, it loaded the map) you have all 3 side's commanders. I believe it's just you, maybe not.....didn't go through it because rts games are second nature to me......

also, besides the main tutorial, in each campaign you're a Greenhorn so they tell you what to build at first: mass extractors, power generators, etc. One thing I like is that all 3 sides' missions are parallel, the commanders you fight along side with in one campaign are the enemies in the other campaigns.

I know games shouldn't be judged by their demos, but from the C&C3 demo, I'd have to go with supcom as the better gameplay game....Story on the other hand, I think C&C has pretty much all other games beat......here's a link to topic about C&C3 vs. supcom, it has some very good points. Another reason why I like supcom better is: The lead designer of it was the same guy who was the lead designer of Total Annihilation, which was my favorite rts of all time.....then supcom, now it's second =D.

Total Annihilation was freakin' sweet.
Game I can't wait for: X-Plane 9. It's not announced, but I can't wait for it anyway.

Whoever said about RB6: Vegas not being realistic, out of curiosity... what makes you think that?

Garr! I could never ever finish a game Command & Conquer, they were always so slow and long. So I bought StarCraft

Bioshock
StarCraft 2 - According to Maca's sig
300 to come out on X360 or Wii.

Wow

300 on Wii... ZOMG THAT WOULD BE AMAZING

Thars pretty much it. I'd also buy any game coming out that has Poke'mon or communism in it.
