Why do you hate 3d so much? With today's technology it's natural to see adventure games made fully or partly in 3d .The best deal would be like Runaway which is 3d but looks like 2d or 2d characters with 3d backgrounds

Funnily enough SQ7 was going to be called ''Return to Roman Numerals''. If only sq7.org would finish the game a bit quicker, but one day it will be finished and the whole world will fall in awe.

LOL. really? I just pulled that out of nowhere (channeling Star Trek). What a coincidence.

Squinky · 07-13-2006, 09:19 AM

Knowing my dreams, it would probably be something like "Deirdra Kiai Dies in Freak Accident Involving Cute Pink Bunnies". Unfortunately, I'd wake up before even getting to read the actual article.

And that's probably a good thing, since someone would have spelt your name incorrectly.

Definitely Sam and Max 2 being #1 in the PC games chart. A load of Nintendo DS games are doing really well in the UK all-formats chart at the moment, and that was almost a dream come true in itself.

I take it you were not to keen on the game then?

"Monkey Island 5 announced!!"

My favourite adventure series but after what they did with 4. Just leave well enough alone. Maybe if a devoted adventure company gets the rights and it's done it a good style...

"Full Throttle 2 is back on say Lucasarts"

Didn't like the original, wouldn't care for a sequel.

"Sam and Max 2 enters PC game chart at number 1"

Who looks at gaming charts (besides the companies and, uh, the people who make the charts)?

"Broken Sword 5 to be 2D"

Own the first two and not a huge fan. So I couldn't care less if the 5th game is in 2D. Wait, a 5th game?! Didn't even know there was a 4th. What a waste of money. They couldn't have something new.

"Other (please specify)"

My choice: (A good adventure company getting the rights to, and making) A sequel to The Last Express. Or even a prequel.

I was secretly rather fond of it actually... even if I did want to cave in Darrel and Victoria's heads with a blunt intrument occasionally.

GK4 and a new Tex Murphy would be at the top of my list since GK3 and Overseer both ended with cliffhangers. I have a feeling a new Tex would be a disappointment though. We'd probably get 3D characters and that just wouldn't be the same as the familiar actors.

Boneho Chane · 07-13-2006, 02:35 PM

I'd like to see a couple of the older, harder to find games getting rereleased by bigger publishers.

Dasilva · 07-13-2006, 03:19 PM

I'd be happy with the Sierra Compilations out, but for QFG too. Its realistic and fair, so I dont know why VU taunt us.
