What do you think?
I'm big fan of 'Modern Warfare' and thought it was a breath of from all that boring World War stuff ..So I really don't know what to expect. On the plus side there's flame-throwers and 4 player Co-Op but on the flip side boring rifles and french farmers and shit like that.

Yeah. i think MW was so good, because I got bored to tears of that WW shite. And multi-player was so good. So if they improve the formula a bit + 4 player Co-Op = fun times.
And Vehicles are back too.

I just bought Modern War last week (just got me a fancy new internet connection). For PC of course. I'm obsessing over my ratio (currently lvl 53 with 4303 kills/ 4258 deaths). I wont be happy with it until it's at least 1.5-1.
Waiting on GTA4 (PC release date nov 17th)... the multiplayer on PC is gonna be totally kickass.

We now return to the previously scheduled thread.
I don't know why it has to be WWII. Didn't one of the Medal of Honor games do WWI? Either way, they could do that, Vietnam, the Spanish Civil War, etc. What about the American Revolution followed by the War of 1812 expansion pack.

I'm still waiting for someone to make this into a video game. I think if it were done by a talented developer it could be a lot of fun, especially if they emphasized survival and guerrilla warfare rather than over-the-top action.
This game used basically the same concept but with an action-oriented approach. It was also a strategy game, which I enjoy, but I'd like to see an iteration of that story in first or third-person adventure style.

Also the other eras you mentioned would be good choices for video games.
If you like real-time strategy (RTS) games, check this game out. It's set in the 18th century.
Another cool period-game is Call of Juarez, a wild-west gunfighting/platforming adventure that is a lot better than it was at launch since it's received some quality patches.

i think the next generation in FPS games, must be in the details, keep it realistic, lighting, shadows, noise sensitivity, depth of field, movements etc COD is the only game to start to improve in these areas.
also for online gaming, there needs to be more objective games, which the whole team must cooperate in order for it to work, this way it gets people communicating and using each other's skills.
i have some pretty good ideas for FPS game concepts to make the whole experience fun and enduring, but i'm sure the experts will take care of it soon

Not calling you out, but COD is hardly the only game to improve in those areas, and it's not even on the cutting edge of current tech. Just saying. :)

it would be interesting to remake IT with the kids from saved by the bell. screech vs the teenage werewolf would be great. the actors would be the right age now to do when they are older, but they may have to cgi pennywise into existing saved by the bell footage.
i had already thought of an idea for a show called dawson's beak, where in addition to the normal drama they would also have to watch out for a giant bird flying overhead killing at will.
close your doors, shut out the light, the giant bird is taking flight, you know that it will swoop and pluck your head so run for cover or you'll be dead.
i don't want to wait, for that bird to fly over, you know that it is winged and deadly. i don't want to wait, for that bird to fly over, let's hide and cry or else we'll be.. sorry do do doo do do, do do doo do do..

well, for our version we can add in stuff from the book that isn't in the movie like the teenage werewolf, the giant bird (don't think that was in the tv series), and the 12 yr old magic sex that saves the day at the end.
i wish there was a way we could work call of duty into all of this though. maybe it starts out with them all playing online multiplayer from their own homes, and they all start seeing pennywise on the battlefield and think it is some new downloadable content. then when he starts killing other players in ways too gruesome to be part of the game, and they never respawn, they know something is up..

The reviews have been surprisingly good, but they picked a bad time to release it. I'm swamped, I've got Gears of War 2's campaign to finish, Motorstorm 2's story mode, been playing tons of Resistance 2 co-op, still have to finish up Far Cry 2's campaign and Fallout 3's sidequests... then Mirror's Edge and Prince of Persia and Left 4 Dead... just no room or time for CoD5 right now. I'll pick it up used in early '09.

I'm thinking of doing the same. It's that interval again where treyarch is the developer, and I haven't heard good things about their work in the past. I'm definitely waiting for a healthy number of reviews, both professional and user/player, before I purchase this.

Dead Space, yeah, you're in for a treat. Between that, Mother 3 fan translation and Little Big Planet, there's 3 of my favorite games ever in just the last month. Added to all the games I already namedropped. Ridiculous year.
Treyarch is OK, but there's too much AAA stuff out there... they don't fit in. I know I won't be putting any time into the online, and CoD campaigns aren't worth 55 bucks... solid bargain buy eventually though.
I noticed this evening that Come to Daddy is on the Motorstorm 2 OST, cool.
