Essentially rather than trying to save the world or whatever, it was "become the best in a competition" with drips and drabs of story thrown in. I will save you the pain of being linked to youtube videos of just how bad it became.Quote:

Likewise, Dropship; United Peace Force is another game which had an interesting premise as far as flight games go. It essentially put you behind the stick of a plane which was part Hurricane Jet and part C17. You could be transporting troops in to a hot landing zone and then expected to not only land and take off under fire but stay on station against smaller, more nimble ships to defend the troops you'd put down. Other missions saw you fly the troops in and then take over a land vehicle to continue the mission from another perspective. It was damn hard at the time but surprisingly great fun. Perhaps a remake in HD would be better though.
Other than that, echoes of Beyond Good and Evil, Final Fantasy Tactics Advance (I'm not sure if I prefered the mechanics of Advance 1 or Advance 2 if I'm honest.) Definitely would appreciate a more adult story however, I'm getting bored of playing as a little kid for the main character.
Phantom Crash on Xbox was also good fun, a relatively simple game with little in the way of storyline, it was essentially a cross between Grand Turismo and a Mech assault game.
I would like to see spiritual sequels to things like Alan Wake, and Enslaved: Odyssey to the West. I loved those games, but they were pretty good one-offs. I would have said things like Ico/SotC, or Beyond Good and Evil, but I knew things were already in the works
Totally forgot SEGA saved Atlus from their parent company's financial troubles. Atlus would be perfect for Shining Force. Might even get a worthwhile more mature version of it in that avenue
...Lost Odyssey...
Ohhh, good one
...except it's made by the people who made Freelancer, is sponsored by fans of Freelancer and is quoted as the spiritual successor to Freelancer.Quote:

Plus the randomly generated dungeon running and the town building/improvement. And the challenge of going in at level 1 each time with limited items. Awesome game!
Does it count if they're already doing it? a sequal to Age of Wonders: Shadow Magic - can't wait! There aren't many games that I just fancy replaying randomly - but that is definitely one of them.
Definitely have to agree with Star Ocean - loved all of them! - want more!
With all the mentions of Final Fantasy Tactics, I thought this might interest some people... (if it hasn't already been linked elsewhere).
And Breath of Fire, Vagrant Story.... There are plenty of other games, but these are the ones that come to the top of my mind!

And it's smurfing unbelievably ambitious. Star Citizen could put everybody else out of business if it hits its mark.Quote:
