What New Video Game...

[Hawklore]

I'd like to see an accurate simulation of se....



Umm, ok, something historical...

I'd have to say, for video games? Console systems, I'd like to see a nicely done sword fighting game, with bow and arrow, and lots of weapons to choose from, and senarios like storming castles and manning catapults and battering rams...And work your way up to a knight, even though thats historically in accurate unless you do a great deed.

Thers one for the PS2 where your a samuri and can ride a horse, but it's not as detailed as I'd like..

I think a more sim-like rather than arcadish game based on the MechWarrior series would be pretty cool.

Late 1930's Grand Prix racing.

Napoleonic era battle/conquest sim - both infantry and naval engagements.

Gran Turismo series for PC.

Large scale Civil War rts.  Multiple battles, you manage everything as much or as little as you want.  Similar to Sid Meier's Gettysburg, but with more and better control.  Perhaps also Napolean's campaigns done the same way.

Battle of Trafalgar and the Spanish Armada.

And of course, more importantly,  Red Baron (the original) with same campaigns, style, missions etc with modern graphics.  I loved that game

  Even with the 3D upgrade for Red Baron it sucked ass.Yea,I could go for that Furball.Best WW1 sim out there was Air Warriors WW2 arena.Would be nice to see someone make one.With all the flight fans its sure to sell good as long as it wasnt like WW2 OL.

Funked,Papyrus put out a Grand Prix game that might intrest ya.Its hairy on the throttle by any means but if you can get a handle on it,and you need a wheel and pedal setup,your gonna like it.

Hmmm... I'm trying to remember what sort of naval warfare occured in that time frame (beyond NGFS in southeast asia).

Hypothetical of course. I want a big cluster**** in the med with SS-N-2s streaking over the ocean while Skyhawks and Phantoms tangle with Mig-21s in an epic battle for global supremacy.

I hope that Dangerous waters lives up to its potential, but I don't have a lot of faith in Sonalysts after Fleet Command. Hopefully they learned some valuble lessons about eye candy vs. a detailed database.

But Nielson could be totally right, and it could be the game I'm looking for.

Waterloo: Napoleon's Last Battle and Austerliz are both pretty good games.  They are based on Meier's Gettysberg engine, but I think the interface is much better.

you know...ive changed my mind...i never want to see a computer game like that...why?

well...more fun to grab a stick and a freind and do that instead...its not nearly as much fun if theres no chance of breaking the other guys arm...

I'd like a total war type of strategic - tactical civil war or napoleon/early 1800's   game with  the formations and the flags etc etc..

First person shooter of Civil War would be awesome, but hard to do...

You could work your way up through the cavalry, artillery, berdans (SP?), infantry, or navy.

Yeah, those 20 second reloads would be a blast!
