Lord Of The Rings RPG next year? Oooohh... Looking forward to that.

 

[GWX]

Scribblenauts 2 PC is awesome.
Don't know what to expect from Batman, need to know the developer first.

FEAR 3? I thought Monolith was doing something different... Well, please be good (read: better than the second game). The sequel was solid, but too short and not as enjoyable, at least for me. The first one impressed me a lot, with great combat mechanics, AI and atmosphere.

this

+ Scribblenauts 2 PC

= Love

 

[malingenie]

Another Fear makes me sad. It means we wont have another NOLF any time soon.

Man, that franchise's potential is so squandered. (No One Lives Forever)

 

[Danne-Danger]

Dear Monolith: Please make the shotgun in FEAR 3 act like the shotgun in FEAR 1. It felt terribly gimp in FEAR 2. Also, dedicated servers please.

And let me lean this time.

Damn traitors.

 

[Drkirby]

They could always include the option to allow you to use the DS as the controller for the Wii game.

Or make use of the fact the Wii can use a USB keyboard.

 

[abstract alien]

Well, hopefully the PC version of scribble releases well after the others. This is the type of game that will be pirated to shit on the platform.

 

[Combichristoffersen]

LotR RPG? Consider me interested.

FEAR 3? Yeah, not very interested. At all.

 

[Tucah]

I was disappointed with the first Scribblenauts due to the terrible controls, but a PC version has me very interested.

 

[MiniDitka]

So the Batman game for the Wii is supposedly based on this - http://www.cartoonnetwork.com/tv_shows/batmanbb/index.html

Why am I not surprised :lol

Edit: please be based on "Mayhem of the Music Meister!" :lol

 

[Somnid]

If they can clean up Scibblenauts on Wii they'll have a great game. The original concept was great but the execution could be a lot better.

 

[dr_rus]

FEAR2 wasn't great but it was alright. I actually liked it more than the first (the first one was too repetitive for my taste). So kinda want I guess.

I got really bored about halfway through.... enjoyed the first parts but then it just got dull.

They need to make it look a hell of a lot better too...

no no no, FEAR 1 was absolutely phenominal, great and innovative AI, great Horror element and the atmosphere was great. Not to mention the weapon felt like they had some omph to it. FEAR 2 felt rtealy shallow and the AI was actually underdevolped compared to the FEAR1.

also the ending was the most WTF ending of the video game history. Screw that game, i hate it because of the ending.

WTF.

 

[Pachimari]

Can someone post the list in here? The link shows nothing and I can't seem to find it at the website. =/

EDIT: found it.

 

[Troidal]

F.E.A.R.2 was decent, but they can't keep throwing obscure endings every single game.

I felt like the series has exhausted itself, not just with its gameplay (which wasn't as good as F.E.A.R.1) but especially the story.

I just started Batman Arkham Asylum! :lol Just cuz it was highly acclaimed, making a sequel in a year is risky business, but I guess that's how this industry (always) rolls.

 

[ArjanN]

Another Fear makes me sad. It means we wont have another NOLF any time soon.

I think FEAR 2 is underrated. The single-player Reborn DLC was good too.

I liked both NOLF games but I'm pretty sure developing a new NOLF game would be a good way to lose money.

I think Shogo 2 is way more likely. Condemned series sadly might be dead in the water because 2 didn't sell that well. (And never came to PC, boooo!)

Looking forward to FEAR 3.

Liar. Who do you lie?
The ending was awesome.

The ending alone made the game worth it.

And the AI in FEAR 1 is wasn't really better than FEAR 2, FEAR 2 was just easier, which made them seem dumber.

 

[Caesar III]

Scribblenauts 2 for DS, Wii and PC? Just bring it to iPhone already please.

No! Thx!

 

[Metal Gear?!]

They best be splainin' that ending.

[BattleMonkey]

FEAR 3 better be something amazing because 2 totally missed the magic the first one had.

 

[ShockingAlberto]

Wait, did people actually think an Arkham Asylum sequel was coming from an entirely different publisher and titled the same as the 70s-throwback cartoon currently airing?

Neither the title of this thread nor the first post mention "The Brave and the Bold" and the link in the first post no longer works, so what did you expect?

People come into a thread knowing nothing other than "new Batman..." and it's not like it's unthinkable the publishing rights could revert to Warner.

 

[cuyahoga]

Lord Of The Rings RPG next year? Oooohh... Looking forward to that.

It's rumored to be from Snowblind and titled War in the North.

getting raped by Alma is just wrong however you see it

 

[Syringe]

Ummm, cannot find the list either. All links seeems to be broken. Anyone has the complete list?

 

[Dyno]

Me too! I thought FEAR 2 was a fine shooter and Reborn was great for the overall story.

No word on Condemned 3 huh? That series still has potential, they just need to do away with some of the new fight mechanics they added in the second game.

 

[DigiMish]

WTF? F.E.A.R. 3 over SHOGO 2. C'mon, Monolith. I would even take Condemned 3, but F.E.A.R. 3... really? REALLY?

Unless Monolith really does something drastic with the franchise, it's totally going to get lost, even more so than F.E.A.R. 2 did.

 

[McBradders]

FEAR 2 was great, never played the first as everyone said the 360 version was junk

 

[Totobeni]

FEAR 3 better be something amazing because 2 totally missed the magic the first one had.

imo FEAR 2 > FEAR 1

better controls , better levels , better actions , better characters , better AI , better everything.

 

[DigiMish]

No way dude - FEAR 2 was so forgettable. Plus, they got rid of the cool melee actions completely for no reason.

 

[Penguin]

I wouldn't mind a game based on the Brave and the Bold if they can keep the tone of the show.

Sadly, it seems like it will be one of those games catered for a very young audience.

 

[Drek]

Neither the title of this thread nor the first post mention "The Brave and the Bold" and the link in the first post no longer works, so what did you expect?

People on a video game forum not to be outright idiots and know that Eidos is owned by Square Enix, neither of which are afiliated with Warner Bros. and that Rocksteady, the developer, has had the only two games they've made published by Eidos.

People come into a thread knowing nothing other than "new Batman..." and it's not like it's unthinkable the publishing rights could revert to Warner.

Even if they did revert it doesn't mean Rocksteady would make it, that it'd be based on the same engine and/or game play mechanics, etc..

I don' think its too much to expect some basic industry knowledge on a video game forum. I know that when I saw this thread my thought was "Warner is going to try and piggy back off Arkham with some mediocre churn job".

 

[EatChildren]

imo FEAR 2 > FEAR 1

better controls , better levels , better actions , better characters , better AI , better everything.

More like worse everything, except the graphics and overall presentation, which is a no-brainer considering it's on a more powerful engine. Actually, that and improved enemy variety and location variety.

Otherwise I was so underwhelmed by FEAR 2 I wish I had never bought it. I'm not hopeful for FEAR 3 as it seems pretty clear Monoloth are going in a direction I dont favour.

 

[BattleMonkey]

imo FEAR 2 > FEAR 1

Better controls? On PC they were pretty much identical, don't know about those years later console abortions though. The levels were just as boring as original fear, just more color. Featured same insanely large building interiors that take forever to get through.

Characters? Some of the most forgettable generic soldiers in a game, not any change of pace from last one. I kept not caring when another one died since it was so meaningless story wise.

The AI was in no way better, and in pretty much every way got dumber some how. FEAR 1 had some of the best ai ever for a FPS, this game pretty much went with a run straight at you mentality of waves of enemies.

The only cool thing about fear 2 was mecha. The story was so forgettable and laughable ending. The multiplayer was also pretty throw away and just felt extremely off.

Well, hopefully the PC version of scribble releases well after the others. This is the type of game that will be pirated to shit on the platform.

YOU SHUT YOUR MOUTH. ;_; The DS Scribblenauts was pirated before release, and I PERSONALLY knew people who did it, or had siblings who did it. Please no 3-month delay so everyone loses interest.

I am happy to hear it's apparently coming to the PC, but it's interesting there's also the DS version. I thought 5th Cell wasn't doing any more DS development. I guess Warner Brothers thought it made enough money even though it didn't reach the NPD top 10.

Anyway, if you make a decent (Steam?) PC version, Jackson, you will have done well. Of course, you won't be commenting since you're probably under NDA's right now. :lol

Spoiler

mail me a hat too

 

[Parl]

I was disappointed with the first Scribblenauts due to the terrible controls, but a PC version has me very interested.

They have to improve the engine for the PC version too as the cursor would just act as what you touch on the DS and would have the exact same problems. If they're going to fix the controls for the PC version, then they'll fix them for the DS too as you, it's probably going to be the same game.
