Sid Meier's Railroads could've had bigger maps and more trains to choose from, but then I'm just complaining, not really giving improvements. Therefore along that vein, They could have continued to do support and patches, and longer year segments.
So Much Untapped Potential

I definitely hoped mirrors edge would be better, the only problems were the smoothness of a lot of sections... Combat, levels, it wasnt mirrors edge... it was crunchy Cheetos edgeirishstormtrooper said:
I can only hope that Bioware returns to the Jade Empire franchise when they finish the Mass Effect trilogy. There is so much that can be built upon the original's foundation.YurdleTheTurtle said:
Evil Genius was a game that was fun for the first few hours but after awhile it became clear had lots of potential that they never quite reached. You'd have to play the game abit to get my rants...
The hotel add ons in that game to keep your base from prying eyes felt really tacked on and didn't do shit but drain funds.
The evil quests you did are hilarious by text description but that's all you get, a text description. You rarely get any special radio messages for the evil deeds you do, you can club baby seals to death on live TV or kidnap scientists and you get the same generic radio announcement about evil organizations being on the rise.
Also the game at one point gives you a quest to kidnap some monkey to give to your scientists to create (I'm not joking) flying monkeys. But due to some coding error or something after you kidnap the monkey you don't get to do anything. The scientists never give you flying monkeys and you just have a caged monkey sitting in your base for all eternity.

Infamous.
It was good, but not great. The good/evil is so elementary. The urban exploration is pretty lack luster, but not bad still. The fighting is a 3rd person shooter with special powers instead of special weapons. Not a bad game, just so much potential.

Agreed. Have you seen the trailer for Battlefront III though? Looks awesome. The thing that struck me was the section where you see, in the actual gameplay, a starfighter taking off from the surface of (I think) Coruscant and entering a low down Space Battle. Why did that not occur to us before?NoMoreSanity said:
As (one of) the resident Mass Effect fanboy, I take exception to that!-Seraph- said:
Naw, just kidding. I don't really care.
Alone in The Dark could have been incredible. I bought it the day it came out and was so unimaginably disappointed. So many good ideas. (sigh)
I guess. That would explain why the trailer looked leaked. Still, it looked awesome, too bad if it was canceled.NoMoreSanity said:
This. Once I got in position for a story assassination and chucked about 5 knives at the target (1 is enough to kill most people) and he didn't die because you have to be next to them when you kill them for their last speech! Then the guards came and killed me.GoldenRaz said:
I'm going to throw a curve ball here, Dino Crisis 3.
1 and 2 were brilliant, in fact I still play 2, then 3 happened, it went the way of Jason and thought a upgrade in space was cool, it wasn't. Given the story so far, a third could have been awesome especially with PS2 and X-box graphics (compared to PSX). Buuuuuuuuut no.
That's all for now it's late, well it's 6am, but I've been up since 4pm.
