I know. I was just being difficult when you pointed out to the OP that PC isn't a console.SakSak said:Nice oneThrobbingEgo said:If we're going to use made-up definitions, why don't we just say - for simplicity - that whatever platform plays games can be considered a gaming "console"?
(I call pen & paper!)
But that's kind of my point. A computer is not necessarily a console, consoles are a subgroup of computers. To call all computers consoles is to deliberately remove relevant information and to subtly redefine a term.
Also, by your definition the PS3 would be a home media center-thing and not a console - as per Sony's supposed intended purpose with the hardware.
The choices in the questionnaire seem skewed toward "hardcore" games. You left turn-based RPGs and puzzle games off of your "favorite genre" question, as well as collecting things from the "what you like in a game." I'm going to assume you like sandbox style games, which is cool, but the survey is really biased and the questions only really let choose from elements of those games.
In fact, I do think of PS3 as a home entertainment center. How did you guess?ThrobbingEgo said:I know.

Done and sounds like an interesting game idea, as long as the annoying British stereotypical accents didn't carry over from Fable
Done. Thanks for killing some time while I grade finals. Also, this game sounds like Assasin's Creed, if you're going for a semblance of historical accuracy, or Oblivion if you're not (as mentioned above). Love to see your effort, though.
Done, sounds like a pretty good idea. Will you be actually making it? One of the advantages of a medieval world is that your partners have less chance of getting run over by a car when you need to keep them alive during a mission.
The assignment brief states we have to come up for an idea for a sandbox style game. Mainly because further in the brief we have to look at legal and ethical issues that come with some games and one of the tutors thought that GTA was the ideal game to look for all that crap. I'm just doing what I'm told.randommaster said:

If the questions were about a sandbox-style game, you should have mentioned it, because otherwise it just seems like you are arbitrarily excluding things.
Done I will now wait for my payment.
Good idea also sounds like oblivion with less consequences more fun and gta4 roaming
