So which game MUST you have in 2004?
 

Okay…let’s take the gaming pulse of FOFC. Just for the sake of the poll, let us say that only one of these projects actually comes to fruition in 2004. Which one do you want the most?

I pick A, or maybe B, heck, I might as well pick C since there's no poll. :)

I will assume that FOF TCY 2 and EHM:FE are on there. I split my vote equally for each of these.

I'm not sure why you guys aren't seeing the poll...???

I just voted. It's there, I tell ya.

O-TIP

That is because a stupid quirk about our new board is that while you are creating your poll, your thread is made and so people first click and see no poll, as you are creating it.

Ah, enlightenment. Thanks Shorty.

Im voting for "The Movies" if it ever comes out. And also for Fable and the next Mario Game.

Pirates but 2-4 above will be bought too.

I voted for Pirates!, it was my choice from the list, but I was surprised not to see Half-Life 2.

Other...Half Life 2

I chose Other...for Fable.

I have to admit I'm getting excited for Everquest 2 later this year. Of course, I'll have to get a new computer before I can play it, so maybe that's what I'm actually excited about.

Well.. ootp6 will come out this year.. so thats out.. i'm thinking pirates myself as well :)

I voted for the wrong thing, meant to put other, oh well, i'm waiting for TEW.

I voted for OOTP6, but I have very high hope for Movies or even the new Hollywood Mogul.

Is Pirates actually supposed to be out this year?

Guess I was thinking it was just getting underway and would be out much later.

Rome: Total War is another one high on my list.

SI's Football Manager 2005 is my other ;)

Absent seeing a demo, getting feedback, etc., I don't believe there's anything I'd buy site-unseen (little $5-$10 low-risk products notwithstanding).

Interest-wise, since I can't evaluate an offering from Solecismic I know nothing about, EHM:FE would be the highest, probably followed by TEW.

Yeah, I doubt Pirates! will be 2004. The poll's more a gauge of what game people are most eager to have done.

Sorry, Halflife 2 is off my radar screen (just my own gaming tastes). Rome: Total War is one I was forgetting.

The Sims is ridiculously addicting. The Sims 2 will be insanely addicting as well, in my opinion. The fact that you can finally GROW UP in the game will be enough to make me buy it. Besides, the graphics look awesome as well.

Also having never played the first PIRATES, I will probably going a different route towards Hollywood Mogul first.

Half Life 2 - and its not even close.

I found a site that is hosting the DL for Pirates.. So I'm going to try it out; I'm not expecting a whole lot though. :) Seeing that it's getting close to 10 years old.

Since I preordered OOTP6, I guess that's my answer.

I'm about 99% certain of buying TCY2 and 90% certain about Pirates! II when and if they come out. I can't think of any other games that I'm interested in on my radar screen.

I’m at 99.9% on TCY2, 95% on Pirates, and around 75% on Rome: Total War and EHM:FE.

But wouldn’t Front Office Colossal Sea Creature be a blast?

Hmmm…there’s an outstanding Colossal Jellyfish coming out of Reykjavik Tech this year, but the colossal kelp crop generally sucks. I’ve got Colossal Squid locked up for three more years, but his shrimp-eating rating is maxed out. So I need to look whale early in the draft…

I'm really looking forward to Freedom Force 2 (aka Freedom Force vs. the Third Reich)

Good call, completely forgot about this one. One of my favorite games of recent years.

Be anxious to see Beyond Divinity also as the first was quite a surprise.

On an aside, I was reading the other day that EA just purchased the rights to make The Godfather game. What..the..hell? I just don't see how they turn that into a game, well aside from bastardizing the whole thing..which I'm sure is the route that will be taken.

EHM:FE

Hands down, I want a hockey sim! The Blues want me to have a hockey sim!


Todd

TCY2 and EHM:FE. I'm getting OOTP6 as well, but that's not the same on the excitement scale.

Ummm, let me think real hard on this one....I think it would have to be...Pirates!

Halo 2, Fable and Ninja Gaiden.

Damn I wish I had more money....

Fight Night 2004, and TCY2

half-life 2

interesting that no one has mentioned Doom 3 yet. Surely that's got some interest around it?

Um what about the game of all games, Madden?

I just recieved an EA coupon for $15 off any game. I think it's time to pre-order Fight Night 2004.


Todd

1st Choice: Front Office Baseball (should it happen)
2nd Choice: TCY2 (should #1 not happen)
3rd Choice: OOTP6 (should neither #1 nor #2 happen)

What a huge surprise. :rolleyes:

Actually, that would be my choice as well.

I guess now is a good time to announce that the first expansion for LSF is already under development. Swimsuit Fritz will see the often unaware protagonist navigate through such puzzles as the "ice cream cone at the beach with no shit running down the arm" and "hide the Hawaiian tropic girl woody." There will also be an easter egg where Fritz will tell his soontobeexwife what has been on his mind for the past 14 months.

so...are you hooked yet?

After seeing some of the things they put in MVP, I can't wait to see what EA does with their flagship title, Madden. I'm hoping for a more expansive owner mode that uses the HDD and tracks all stats for all players ever, including existing real-life records. Maybe playable NFL Europe games. Practice squads. Etc.

EHM:FE UBER ALLES!

NCAA 2005

Definitely Leisure Suit Fritz.

EHM:FE. No doubt.

Um, guys, he said 2004. Not 2014.

1) Half Life, Baby!

2) Freedom Force.

But Half Life and Freedom Force have been out for years. I have both of them!
:)

Mmm, you forgot Football Manager, the replacement for CM. It should be due out in the Fall.
