Your Gaming Immediately-if-not-Sooner List

Oubaas · 08-29-23, 07:33 PM

What's on your gaming, "I want it immediately if not sooner" list?

Not games that exist or are well underway in development, I mean the titles you want, but nobody has made.

As for me...

1. An antique car and street rod simulator with really huge maps. I should be able to cruise around in a 1936 Cord convertible, a 1934 Ford 3-window coupe street rod, a 1950 Mercury lead sled, etcetera.

2. A fully detailed, first person Surface Warfare title, where I can walk around the ship and command the vessel. Maybe a Cruiser. A real Cruiser, not a glorified Destroyer. Perhaps USS Long Beach in Vietnam or something.

3. A modern, new submarine sim that has no WW2 German U-Boats. That's enough U-Boats now. They're starting to affect me like anime or manga games, or whatever you call that weird looking Japanese comic art. Or games with 2D pixel graphics. No.

By the way, no more games where you spend all your time looking at the fantail. Sea Power is the last one that I'll buy like that. After that, either make an interior or forget it.

Okay, I'm done whining. What's on your list?

The problem is that games that would interest me most likely won't interest others and therefore would be a poor business decision by a game maker.

It would be nice to be rich enough to hire gaming software designers to make personalized games just for me.

That's exactly what I need, LOL! I want a huge game development team that's on call 24/7/365, so if I suddenly wake up at 0330 with a brainstorm for a new title, I can phone them and set them to work on it right away!

Yes, I guess some of the game ideas that would thrill me if they came to fruition might be a bit underwhelming for most gamers. The horrible little sods.

They should get with the program and develop an interest in things like fire control subsystems in 1960s surface combatants. What the heck is wrong with kids these days?
