Re: Xmas Game Wish List
 

I want world peace. A faster computer, and..
As for another game? why? SE is so deep and wide it is always a new game.

SJ,
Just a long shot.
Are there any "upgradable bios" on your system?
Some years ago there were viruses that could hide in an updatable chip.
The most common was on video and network cards.
Install new hard drive and Poof, they reinfect it.

Re: Xmas Game Wish List
 

Naw, its a physical problem. The disk makes metallic scrapety-tink sounds.

Re: Xmas Game Wish List
 

SJ:

Just get yourself a new harddrive...it's obvious you can't handle a used one!!!

Re: Xmas Game Wish List
 

Hmm can just see the familliar smoke and sparks flying from the computer

Re: Xmas Game Wish List

MOO3
SE4G Patch 3
SE5 (!)
Stars Supernova Genesis (yah right http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/image...s/rolleyes.gif )

A 3D MEGAMAN GAME!!! OTHER THAN LEGENDS!!! I want to fight CutMan in full 3D glory!!! http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon10.gif but

Re: Xmas Game Wish List
 

<font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">EVE is a Massive Multiplayer Online RPG game. It's in space, and it seems to have good gameplay and graphics set up. The downside is it costs a monthly fee.

and I fotgot to add 3 zeros on that 4 http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/blush.gif it's simcity 4000.

Re: Xmas Game Wish List
 

<font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">No one has seen what Homeworld 2 does exactly, alone get a demo. Methinks you've played Homeworld: Cataclysm, which is not developed by relic, and does get a little stiff.

so http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/tongue.gif http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon12.gif

Re: Xmas Game Wish List
 

OK, Santa PLEASE accept my wish list!!
1) MOO3
2) SE(5?)
3) Hegemonia / Legions of Iron
4) CivIII / Play the World

That's my wish list, Santa. Please remember this year. It is the house on the LEFT, not the RIGHT. Last year you delivered my entire wish list to my Neighbor. I am sure it was a just a mistake. You being as you are and all. Sure was tough watching him all year with MY stuff!!

Thanks Santa!!!

Re: Xmas Game Wish List
 

Heres a thought, SE5 goes massive multiplayer. You've got legions of homeworld2 or some other space combat simulator waiting around for fleet battles between empires. So we've got the big picture guys and the fleet admirals. And then people load up Halo or Half-life or Hitman 2 for some covert ops actions and of course some good Real time strategy game for killing planets. Not sure bout logistics though.

As for my list of games...
Halo (with XBox)
GTA3
Simcity 4000 (after looking site)

Re: Xmas Game Wish List
 

<font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">Gotta agree with Taera on this one. Only thing on my wish list is 'SE IV Gold'

<font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">SJ, If you're having a holiday Down Under, I've got a cupboard full of spare 10GB hard drives, that are just getting moldy.

Re: Xmas Game Wish List
 

My first wish is a computer with high enough specs to run the three games I already own that I can't play yet. (Imperium Galactica II, Europa Universalis II, Civilization III)

If i got that, then the next two games would be Space HoRSE and Strange Adventures in Infinite Space {link}

Re: Xmas Game Wish List
 

i wish for a nice bottle of bush mills 21 year old whiskey.

Sorry wrong xmas wish list...

Actually that would go nice with a cigar and a game of seiv

Re: Xmas Game Wish List
 

i'd like to recieve beta testing notice for Star Wars galaxies for christmas...

Re: Xmas Game Wish List
 

<font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">Saw Space horse at a friends computer, it was really bad (Never played M.U.L.E. though, that might make a difference).
Tried Strange adventures in infinite space, fun but over in 5-15 minutes, no point to it really, play it three times and then you've done it, no replayability.

I want SE5, but I don't really need it as SE4G is really good. MOO3 though would be great to get.

(Edit spellschjekk)

Re: Xmas Game Wish List
 

I have been waiting a long time for MOO3

I would also like to hear that they started to make MOM2.

Re: Xmas Game Wish List
 

A good WW2 strategy game. Does one exist?? (like 3rd Reich for the PC but well... not crap)

Re: Xmas Game Wish List
 

David G, check out matrix games, Gary Grigsby has some new WWII pacific games out, similiar in concept to PacWar, decent games, they also have a lot of the old SSI WW2 games that have been upgraded and some you can download for free from their site. war in Russia and others

just some ideas mac

Re: Xmas Game Wish List
 

<font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">they said it depends on how MOO3 does. if it does well then they may try to do other "old" titles. but i dont think they have the liscence to MOM.

i would like to see more from the Wing Commander Privateer series. I understand FreeLancer is supposed to be its replacement so waiting for it.
SEV
MOO3
SimCity 4
Stars! Supernova

Re: Xmas Game Wish List
 

<font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">Cool thanks. Too bad so many of their gamea are either discontinued or still in production. Looks like they have some good ones.

Re: Xmas Game Wish List
 

Oh, forgot to mention, TNG-Mod for SE4G!!! http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon10.gif http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon10.gif http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon10.gif

BTW, I hear there's going to be some sort of MMO Version of Cosmic Encounter... wonder how that'll work out? "I'm the Vulch, I get to steal those Last 15 artifact cards that everyone else played this turn!" "No, I'm the Damper, you only get to take half of them!" "But wait! *I'M* the Freemic Discombobulator, everyone has to roll 10d6 and if it's odd then they take as many ships out of warp as the Vulch gets cards, and if they roll odd they have to put that many ships in!" http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/shock.gif (Wish when I got the game that I got the real Version, not the watered-down back-to-basics pLastic-ships-that-barely-fit-in-their-carriers Avalon Hill Version though... http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/image...s/rolleyes.gif )

Re: Xmas Game Wish List
 

For a WW2 game you could try the venerable WiF (world in flames). Great, and by great i mean really fun and also really umm big. And by big i mean a learning curve that looks like a rocket launching heading towards Alpha Centauri. I own it and haven't gotten beyond a few basic scenarios with a few super smart friends.

However, the possibilites are endless and adg (australian design group) has a beta of the nearly complete computer Version. That i'm buying the moment it hits shelves. Add that to my list.

<font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">I'm working on it! I'm hoping to get out a beta between Christmas and New Years!

Re: Xmas Game Wish List
 

Woohoo! So even if MOO3 doesn't come out I'll still have a Christmas treat! http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon10.gif

Re: Xmas Game Wish List
 

Well looks like Christmas came early for me. I happened to be in a game store and found exactly the kind of game I've been looking for. A grand strategy type WW2 game. It's call Hearts of Iron. Now let's hope it is actually good.

Re: Xmas Game Wish List
 

I don't really want a new game at this time. I want model of the NX-01 Enterprise to put together. I told my wife about it and she said "I called around and checked on the web and they aren't in production yet." Don't know if she is telling the truth or just setting up for x-mass day. I think she is just tired of me and our oldest daughter playing with toys. Hay, what can I say but that they are only kids once and this is the only chance I have to be their play partner. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif I love them too much to let this chance go. Ahhh, getting mushy now, gotta change topics before someone thinks I have a heart. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/shock.gif

Re: Xmas Game Wish List
 

<font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">You could build your own {link}. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif

Re: Xmas Game Wish List
 

My Xmas list:
- A year off work (paid).
- Playstation 2 & SSX Tricky (coz strategy isn't everything=-)
- A pair of Spider Jerusalem shades.
- Someone to come round and make my computers work the way I want them to.
- Lots of good reading material (Culture novels, Honor Harrington, something new and interesting)
- Uhhh... that'll do. I don't want for much.

Re: Xmas Game Wish List
 

ho ho ho, times running out, get your xmas lists in so the jolly old fellow can see who's been naughty or nice.....

mac

Re: Xmas Game Wish List
 

I would honestly like all of this crap in the world to cool down just for one day. That would be the nicest present of all. One day were no one killed another person.

Sorry if that's bringing everyone down...

Re: Xmas Game Wish List
 

Sachmo, that would be the best present of all, however, with the way people in this world are, it would never happen, Its a shame, people need to learn to live with one another,

just some ideas mac

Re: Xmas Game Wish List
 

darn it Sachmo, stop trying to arse up my Lockheed Martin stock.

Re: Xmas Game Wish List
 

Lockheed martin doesn't need Sachmo's help to screw up, they're retarded enough already sadly.

Re: Xmas Game Wish List
 

I want SC4 (even if its coming out after Christmas), a F-16, F-22, RAH-66, and a nice hat (like Indiana Jones kinda hat)

Re: Xmas Game Wish List
 

It seems to me the best gift is cash or at least a gift certificate at a place you know the person likes to shop. That way you know the person will get exacly what he or she wants and you don't buy them they tie that they only wear when you're around.

KirbyEF

Re: Xmas Game Wish List
 

<font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">Too true. If only we had Speer to run our military industrial complex. but to the topic at hand, and without ranting on why i dislike scheduled gift giving events, here are some of the titles I plan on picking up:

available now:
Neverwinter Nights
Mafia
BCT and ATF from everyones favorite Online publisher

available after xmas:
MOO3 (early Jan they say)
X2 (sequel to X: beyond the fronter. X2 should be what Elite was then, for the ultra-modern gamer today)
Freelancer (microsnot's remake of Privateer. blatant more-of-the-same-ism in an under-done genre. looks like fun.)

I also think the new Battlecruiser games look neat (3000ad.com) but since (1) the first two fell down. (2) they have a dozen games that do the same thing, and the newer ones claim to have more features. (3) Dr. Smart is an ego centric jackass and he rubs me the wrong way. I am compelled to either (2) wait for a later release, or (1&3) just not buy it.

there is also a pretty spiff space tactical game (more ship-on-ship), i think it might have been IG3, or something like that. i dont know if its out, or much about it.

Re: Xmas Game Wish List
 

mafia would be cool to have
NWN rocks
I tried this demo for Ironstorm, demo was buggy, but fun
kinda weird storyline too

Re: Xmas Game Wish List
 

My Expanded wish list;
1) SE4G patch 3 http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon10.gif
2) BABYLON 5 mod for SE4GOLD 1.78+. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon10.gif
3) Updated all moders teck modes, for SE4GOLD 1.78+. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon10.gif
4) ANY latest Comments from Arron hall??.
5) Egosofts X2, a ultimate space trading game, coming after march.
6) Star trek ship model, promithius.
7) AST mode or TNG-Mod for SE4G http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon10.gif http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon10.gif WOW??.
8) Santa to lose some weight.
9) Santa Dont come down my chimanie.Ring the door bell,its more professional.
10)Santa Dont bring elves,deer,or ANY munchkins of any sort to my house, Im, allergic too pest.

Re: Xmas Game Wish List
 

<font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">DavidG, I've been looking for game like this as well, and we may be in luck. Battlefront.com and Fury Software have recently put out Strategic Command: European Theater - a game of grand strategy like 3rd Reich. William R. Trotter from PC Gamer, whose opinion I trust, rated it 90%. He says its the best grand strategy game since Clash of Steel (which I've never played).

I've put it on my list for the holidays. I hope that it's as good as advertised. Sometimes one does need a break from conquering the galaxy. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon12.gif
