[Guardian G.I.]

A Hearts of Iron-style game about the Cold War.
Unfortunately, Paradox Interactive axed East vs. West, the closest thing to that idea, which is a shame. I was looking forward to it.

A visceral, gritty, grimdark Star Wars game for once. It seems like they all have the same sort of mood, but I'd like it if for once the universe was kept but the aesthetic was revamped a bit.

[EnigmaticHat]

Can we do Chromehounds + Bad Company? Chromehounds was infinitely better than armored core, at least in multiplayer.

Why not Steel Battalkion + Red Faction (1 and Guerrilla)?

I can't speak for red faction 1, but Guerrilla doesn't have terrain deformation, while Bad Company 1 does.  Battlefield is also known for having maps huge maps for an FPS.  Chromehounds does make more sense though, since mecha in the one armored core I've played could literally blast off into space according to game mechanics.

I don't even know what Steel Battalkion is.

Red Faction 1 has terrain deformation, and I thought Guerrilla did to a minor extent, but its been a long time since I played.

naw, Guerrilla only did building/structure destructrion... it was SO FUCKING AMAZING though. The only thing that came close to terrain deformation was that you could destroy some bridges.

Also, quote pyramid incoming!

That's why you combine the two.   Terrain destruction of one with the ability to destroy EVERYTHING from Guerrilla.  Also, Guerrilla has mech.  Like the heavy walker.   NOTHING could stop the heavy walker.   And it wasn't even meant for combat.   
I added an extra k on accident.   Steel Battalion is an old mech game where you had to buy a special controller.   That had somewhere around 50 or so buttons.     At the beginning of each level you had to go through a startup sequence for your mech.   In combat you could shut down your mech so that enemies with infrared or heat tracking can't see you.   And then you would have to go through the startup sequence again.   If your mech get's destroyed, you have to eject.  If you don't your save game would get erased.   I think I remember seeing that you even had a button dedicated for your windshield wipers.

There's Republic Commando for PC, which was functional if not stellar. It isn't really grimdark, but there's a lot of blood and guts compared to any other Star Wars game.

Battlefront 2's campaign is about as grimdark as Star Wars gets, but also boring and repetitive. You'll start to hate it after the seventh "gravelly-voiced narration with creepy chanting over blurry FMV" cutscene.

KOTOR II is also pretty adult, and not in the superficial "rah rah war is hell" manner of Republic Commando and Battlefront 2... that is, if you can chug through the mind-numbingly dull first act on Peragus and Telos. Get the Restoration Patch if you do decide to play, it clarifies a lot of story points that were left unfinished.

Republic Commando is probably the grittiest, and most deserving of a sequel (which it never got D:), but I agree a REALLY gritty star wars game would be nice. Blood, racism, and lotsa prostitution would be great!

^^ Yeaaaahhhhhhhhh~! :-D

I've beat that more times than I can count.

No, I loved it. I thought it was awesome seeing it from the clones' perspective, their regrets and motives and such, and how while they were fighting for the Empire, their breed were slowly dying out, and most of their unit weren't even clones anymore. Battlefront 1 didn't even try to tell a story so it was a big step up.

I don't like KOTOR, and I could never get through it because of how boring it is, though I do agree that its a great game. Just not a fan because of the combat. Melee lacks weight and it really bothers me, and whenever I play blasters I get owned. Prolly just suck. My friend is way better at it. :p

Half Life 3

Maybe a proper sequel to Starcraft

Half Life 3

Don't be hatin' on the 100 year development cycles brah. Gabe hath spoken.

[EnigmaticHat]

Pretty sure he spoke to the effect of "we haven't even started", although I couldn't tell you where I remember that from.

A strictly graphical remake of Diablo 1, Diablo II and Lord of Destruction. Absolutely no touching the mechanics, just take the original games and plug them into a 3D graphics engine.

I would love this, along with making it a bit more easily moddable moddable so that something like Median XL could end up in there for the crazy/hardcore crowd.

I've never really touched the metagame of Diablo 2. I feel like I get a much different experience than the majority of people who play.
