What if....

[SteveDave]

So can you please move on if you are not going to add anything

So we're not allowed to criticize threads that don't make sense? Or is it that one dissenting voice is too much for you to handle?

You are allowed to do so. But I am asking you to do other wise. This back-and-forth between us has become redundant, you have made your opinion known as well as I have and I do not see the point in furhter discussion between us. If you wish, you can "dissent" all you want but it seems to me that I can't change your opinion about what this thread is about and you can't change what you believe is my "bad sense of humor."

What if cabbages flew with donkey heads and talking cucumbers set fire to blocks of ice?

Answer: I would no longer be classed as a schizophrenic and the world would be far more interesting.

Good stuff.

What if 4chan were to shut down?

They'd all flood here!

Dude! Don't even joke about that. That's a horrible thought.

What if: People made a game with a plot as good as a novel's?

Then I wouldn't read novels anymore.

Who cares if a new MGS came out on the xbox. There was only a 4 second trailer ehose meaning was as obscure as if I said "If you make a bet, you don't get a profit." It's hard to figure out, and obviously no good would come of trying to. I don't know why everyone thinks its the 360 anyway. Maybe it's because of the (to quote Yahtzee) "Crusader Fervor" that the consoles bring about (you know PS3=Metal Gear and PS3 and Xbox 360 hate each other, so it does make sense how people would think that). But look where have you seen that i before. Well it's the last two letters of the console W>ii<, meaning there's as good a chance as any that it's on the Wii. Though I know I added to the fire I was just point out that people aren't thinking all of this through clearly. They're just starting commotion no one needs.

I suppose you have a point, but I still think that a game with a plot as good as an epic novel would be awesome.

I have to agree with you there.

I completely agree with you. For all we know it could be for the iPhone.

What if Master Chief turned out to be Duke Nukem?

Answer: The world would be safe again. And everyone would have balls of steel.

What if Master Cheif was William Shatner?

Answer: Then all new FPS characters would be required to 'Talk Sing', and my Motivational poster would be right on the money...

Spoiler

And all those lame one-liners would make sense...

There is a little bit more to it than just that silly and obscure logo.

WHAT IF: Isometric hadn't died?
ANSWER: UNF UNF UNF UNF VAN BUREN

And for something a little less obscure

WHAT IF: Dungeon Keeper as a series hadn't died
ANSWER: While we might not have Fable, we'd also have more Dungeon Keeper games with their brilliant wit and it would probably have helped make the PC a stronger platform.

I would pay SO MUCH MONEY for Bungie to make another halo and have that right at the end!

Anyways
What if the Wii actually released more than twoo decent games a year?
Answer: I would be a much, much, much happier person

Well I can see your point but that was written almost a whole year ago so it's possible that he changed his mind in between then and now.
(I didn't contribute to this what if thing so I'll give it a shot)
Question: What if the Alone in the Dark series actually took place in the dark and you weren't allowed to use your flashlight or lighter.
Answer: It'd be original for a while but the bland imageless gameplay would make people fall asleep and probably make older fans wonder why they ever bought these games to begin with.

Because the new Alone in the Dark didn't do that to the older fans at all. /sarcasm

What if there were no more console-exclusive games?

There would be no more console fanboys and the Escapist would know peace. In other words, it would seem fine for a while, but then it would get boring.

That or there would be different brands of computers (like say Apple started make gaming PCs) that people would war over.

 

[Vumsy]

What if some guy invented a gaming console that supports wii-, ps3-, xbox 360- and pc games?

Console-racism would vanquish...

 

[tocj]

What if the final fantasy series would produce it's finallest fantasy (i.e. the final game they'll make)...

answer: who knows man.. :/

 

[SnowCold]

What if the pokemon anime never had exisited?
Pokemon would very unpoupler, but very good (no more of that goddamned mouse)

 

[Mr. Fister]

Question: What if MGS came to the 360?

Same thing that would happen if 300 were to go on local television at noon-time: It's there, but it's so butchered, it's just not the same anymore.

Question: What if Duke Nukem Forever was released RIGHT NOW?

Answer: The apocalypse would "coincidentally" happen at the same time; in other words, no one would care.
