Games you think could exist within the same Universe

[Sebenko]

Warhammer and Warhammer 40k...

Oh no you didn't... If GW gets a hint of this they will send out their lawyer bots to silence you... permanently.

Sigmar was a Primarch...

There's plenty of stuff from 40K in warhammer.
Couple of years back there were some rules for Amazons. One of their magic weapons had effects and looks suspiciously similar to a power sword.

And I hear if you go up north far enough into the big chaos portal at the pole, you can catch glimpses of 40K spaceships and stuff.

True, but if you ever ask someone who works at GW (or at least the several i've spoken too) they are all "Noooo, not connected lololol. Here, buy this model for £100!" Its why apparently, they got rid of the Squats in 40k.

The got eaten by nids. Any other claim is heresy. Also, it was ages ago, when they actually gave a shit about background and couldn't think what to do with them, so they got rid of them.

That's a pretty long stretch since Portal constantly makes references to show that it is set in the Half-Life universe. So that theory might work if we assume that Apocalypse in Darksiders was basically the Combine, which even though I haven't played Darksiders I don't think that exactly fits with its story.

OT: Portal and Half-Life, duh.

What in particular is preventing the two games being set in the same universe?

I don't see any occurances in Half-Life or Portal that would preclude that world from hosting Darksider's Apocalypse.

Hmm. Well, it all depends on how many liberties you're willing to take with the timeline. All we know for sure about the Portal timeline is that it takes place in the same universe as Half-Life and that GLaDOS's take over of Aperture Science must have taken place before Half-Life 1, but there is no knowing exactly when Chell (the player in Portal) awoke at the events of Portal happened. Now that I think about it, it is possible for Portal to take place X amount of years after the Combine (somehow) get booted off Earth and pretty much all of the monsters and/or aliens either go extinct or go as well and humanity rebuilds itself into cities like they had before. Okay, I can accept that. You win... For now.

That's one of two options.

1) What you said

2) All Half-life and Portal events occur before Darksider's plot.

Neither can be ruled out, because we only know (vaugely) the dates of HL & Portal. No date is given for the Apocalypse in Darksiders - only that it occurs in a comtemporary city (and the rest of the game 100 years after).

Fallout and Terminator. Fallout already has robots and AI, so if you stretch the established dates of Terminator it wouldn't be that implausable to say Skynet only developed some time after the nukes fell. Or say that Fallout is set in a world were the humans destroyed skynet as a unified force but never managed to rebuild society.

Terminator and Alien. Remove the plamsa weapons from Terminator it it establishes a perfect reason for why humans in Alien started to explore and colonize other planets. Skynets AI could form the bases for the human robots of Alien.

Any crime games (GTA/Saints Row/etc..)

Any WW2 game, modern combat game, future combat game.

 

[Spoony_Nin]

World of Warcraft and Diablo surely?

 

[Erja_Perttu]

Gears of War and Viva Pinata

 

[Ridonculous_Ninja]

if Brawl is to be believed then all of nintendos games take place in the same universe.

Brawl is inter-dimensional though, Master Hand just pulled them all out of their game universes and into his tournament...thing.

Star Fox and F-Zero are at the very least connected by a warp, whether or not it's a warp between galaxies or universes is debatable.

Required retard reply: FIFA 2010, NBA 2010, NHL 2010 and Madden 2010.

Cool idea: I think Resistance and Bioshock. Isn't Resistance supposed to be an alternate history in the 50s and 60s? And Bioshock is under the sea in the late 50s (and late 60s for the second). Therefore they could be together. If a big daddy came back to the surface or if

Spoiler

Evil ending: Jack went to the surface with an evil army of Splicers

you could fight aliens all spliced up. That'd actually be really cool.


Also a cool idea would be (as previously mentioned) inFAMOUS and [PROTOTYPE].

 

[GoWithDAFro]

Jak and Daxter and Ratchet and Clank maybe?

I always wondered that. Are they in the same universe?

No. Maybe. I'm not sure.

Naughty Dog and Insomniac always make games similar and that come out at around the same time, so they may have thought to themselves that R&C and J&D could be in the same universe, but one takes place partially in the future and partially in a somewhat primitive civilization without the ability of space travel while the other takes place on many different planets.

So I'd say no.

On the other hand, there are posters of Jak and Daxter in Ratchet and Clank, and a Planet Daxx. So, who knows. Spyro, Crash and Sly could probably go together. Two of them even switched world once

This sounds like an argument from Big Bang Theory.

 

[Plurralbles]

Sins of a Solar Empire and Starcraft and Spore. They would all be fine together. The universe is infinitely large.

 

[The_Blue_Rider]

Pokemon Red and Pokemon Blue?

 

[reg42]

God of War and Dantes Inferno

 

[sheogoraththemad]

guitar hero and rockband

 

[bubba145]

its been stated but Halo and teh call of duty verse.
also heres a new one Call of Duty and Harry potter yes i think they co exist.
Sly cooper and Ratchet and clank.

 

[Moonmover]

The Star Wars franchise and almost any fantasy RPG. Your fantasy world is just one of millions, and your wizards are using the Force.

Also, Diablo and WarCraft. The Prime Evils could just be officers in the Burning Legion. And there was a villain from Diablo as an easter egg in The Frozen Throne. And they are both made by the same company.

Basically, any combination of the HUNDREDS of WW2 games out there.

Nah, if every World War II game protagonist existed in the same universe, the Allies would have won in about five minutes. Those guys are like walking nukes.

 

[Aerodynamic]

Jak and Daxter and Ratchet and Clank maybe?

Why is the first post always the one who Ninja's me?
