. An rpg sort of thing where you play a lawyer of all people and have to collect evidence and cross question witnesses to prove your client's innocence? Brilliant. It'll probably actually be quite shallow and poorly executed, but as an idea it's really interesting. A more adult one with realistic characters and crimes could make a great point and click game. |

im sure the most original video game ever would at least have some gold coins to collect or something.. not something based on real life : ) also, i still dont trust nintendo much these days : | |

If there was a "counter" system you had to learn like Virtua fighter, it'd be great: You have to press the relevant button to the reason why you're raising an objection. If you're too slow, or press the wrong button, the judge won't accept it. |

I saw pics of that game. Apparently it got good reviews but it doesn't really seem like an 'awesome' game to me for some reason. When I hear "attorney" the last word to come to my mind is 'video game'. |
||||||||
|
|

|
|
I would say something like "Katamari" or "Me and my katamari" are more original, both in concept and visually. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
or "loco roco", which hasn't come out outside of Japan as of yet. just the art design and game mechanics look awesome, I think. |

I should probably purchase this game, sounds interesting. Maybe I could get it for my birthday. |

they should make a video game of Tango and Cash! :D!!!!! |

kagero deception and clocktower for the ps were very original (at the time). |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
pretty much the first games to be made were the most original. but i have to agree with qrter, and add titles like no one can stop mr. domino, as well as parts of gunstar heroes. |
||||||||
|
|

I fail to see the originality in either the concept or the execution of this game. |

Ecnadniarb: Please provide me with a list of games (that westerners might of heard of) where you play a lawyer defending someone in court (and that's the bulk of the game, rather than just a single scene). The nearest game I can see to it would be some sort of CSI/PI one where you're gathering evidence to point to a killer, which aside from being a game working for the prosecution, rather than defense work, they tend to be pure facts gathering, rather than a legal battle. Optimus Prime: I really liked Gunstar Heroes, but I think whilst there was certainly original in places, the whole notion of a platform shoot em up and the bulk of the game wasn't anything conceptually new. Weatheredstoner: When I hear "attorney" the last word to come to my mind is 'video game'. That's exactly how I feel. That's why I think this is so original. I've not played it and I don't think it'll actually be a particularly good game, I just think it's a very original idea for one. |

Surely the most original computer game is the tennis game by William Higinbotham? |
||||||||

May be original, but not fun... Manga lawyer? |

I remember some really weird PS1 game where you control a beachball rolling about |

|

sentinal on the spectrum was pretty amazing at the time... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Yes, I remember that. There's a good article on the freescape games in retro gamer magazine this month. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
huh? It is just a "sim" game basic on a real world day to day profession. There are thousands upon thousands of more original games about. |
||||||||
|

i did say parts ! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Then you're bang on the money! :) "Throwing" the dice and the boardgame was a nice touch. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
most RPGs have some quest/mission that involves something similar. it's basic RPG funkiness, really. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
turns out this game is pretty fun (as long as you were a manga/anime nerd at some point in your life). |

homeworld the first genuine 3-D strategy. |
||||||||
|
|

| |||||||||
|

I think that one where you have to shoot a gun and drive a car. |
||||||||
|
|

Loco Roco is definitely up there somewhere, but it isn't the most original ever. It would be hard to single out one.. maybe the original the incredible machine? Or covert operations? Maybe Metal Gear.. I don't know. |

Little Big Adventure. |

|
|

| |||||||||
|
|
How about Shadow of the Collossus? Great game, by the way. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I dunno. The only games that gave me experiences and feelings that haven't yet been duplicated or improved upon by later games are the Metal Gear and Mother series. I just haven't played anything that feels like those. Not so much for the gameplay, though that's great too. Shadow of the Collossus is also pretty unique and has no real peer, but time will tell how it holds up and how hard it is to replicate that kind of feeling. |

Ophecks, Xenogears (to the PSX) has a very special mood to it. If you're into RPG:s, it's worth a try. And yes, of course the MGS-series. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I agree about the MGS-series. |
||||||||

the most original game created is katamari damacy. in fact it's 100%, completely original |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Been playing 'Hotel Dusk: room 215' on the DS lately. It's quite good. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Right, that one too! And katamari damacy... and |
||||||||
|
|

You tend to get original games when the technology improves enough to allow something new. |

The Neverhood! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
The only game I play is on my phone. It's pretty gash. Oh and Fifa 2007 which is wicked. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yes, i second that game, but it's not entirely original. Sure, there wasn't any clay-based adventure before Neverhood, atleast not that i recall. Imo, needs a mention. It's a great game, and massively overlooked and somehow unknown. But goddamn, is it good ! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i also found Neverhood a tad too easy :( but hell do i love claymation! :D |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
second mention, and then i'll shut up for a while: . Amazing game, simple concept, but fucking good fun. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
im currently in the process of trying to get my hands on we <3 katamari. damn bastard outbid last second. oh well, theres plenty more chances. and yeah, the neverhood is frickin awesome. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

Lemmings was very original at the time, nobody could decide whether it was a strategy, puzzle or arcade game, a nice little simultaneous blend of them all. |
||||||||
|

I went to the video games exhibition at the science museum, you could play them all... woohahaaaa. 3 hours went by like that. The early ones are pretty amazing... Spacewar which may be the first one, is very good, quite similar to asteroids. Quite hard. I played the Star Wars one for a bit and blew up the death star. |
||||||||
|
|

I recommend downloading the discovery channel series "I, Videogame" (find it at piratebay or something). It's a nice historical approach to videogames. Sure, they miss a lot and do a few weird jumps, but it's still interesting. |
||||||||
|

Thanks for the heads-up - I've been looking for a good doc on video-games. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
|
||||||||
|
|

And it's still going, I think, so there'll be a new episode each week. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
is cool, it has ridiculoads of VG related video and literature and stuff like that, I must have grabbed like a terabyte of shit from there. |

thanks a bunch, Jay :] |
