thecyke Posted June 3, 2004 Report Share Posted June 3, 2004 Suddenly, out of nowhere, a quick nosing around the net by myself turns up new and previously unpublished X-Com Genesis Concept Art! Cue the usual wailing and gnashing of teeth after you see these. I've yet to hear, read or see anything that gives the impression Genesis would not have rocked our little booties off. Check it out RIGHT HERE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pumpkinhead Posted June 3, 2004 Report Share Posted June 3, 2004 I get depressed any time I read something about there never being any more X-COM games Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neorapsta Posted June 3, 2004 Report Share Posted June 3, 2004 Yeah, i've seen these before But always remember, just cos a professional company doesn't make an X-com game doesn't mean there won't be another one. Thats what us fanbois are for Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pumpkinhead Posted June 3, 2004 Report Share Posted June 3, 2004 At the moment I'm hanging for the Last Hope mod... It seems to be as close to Alliance as we're gonna get anytime soon... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Veteran Posted June 3, 2004 Report Share Posted June 3, 2004 That's one hell of a Chrysallid :o But if you want a new game come and give Colonisation the support it needs! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FullAuto Posted June 3, 2004 Report Share Posted June 3, 2004 Every time I read about XCG I am surprised at just how much Atari/Hasbro/Microprose/whoever sucks and blows simultaneously. This would have been a cracking game. I mean, Dave Ellis was on board!Bah! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShadowBlade Posted June 4, 2004 Report Share Posted June 4, 2004 Every time I read about XCG I am surprised at just how much Atari/Hasbro/Microprose/whoever sucks and blows simultaneously.Aye... They killed what could've been an all-time classic... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kernel Posted June 4, 2004 Report Share Posted June 4, 2004 Hasbro were the ones to kill Genesis not Atari so don't blame them. Remember Atari have alowed Sid Meyer create another Pirates! game so there's every chance they will also create another X-Com game at somepoint in the future if there is sufficent demand from the fans.

JellyfishGreen Posted June 8, 2004 Report Share Posted June 8, 2004 Coincidentally, I've been playing "Robotech:Battlecry" these last few weeks, which was the project developed by the Genesis offshoot team "Vicious Cycle" mentioned in the article. I've only watched a few episodes of Robotech back in the day but I'm really enjoying the game. A bit of powered-armor fighting, a bit of jetfighter-flying, and a bit of "Oops, those last missiles levelled a building by accident." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FullAuto Posted June 8, 2004 Report Share Posted June 8, 2004 Aaah, Robotech. We hardly knew ye. When I was knee high to a grasshopper, they only had two videos of it at my local rental place. Didn't stop me renting them out over and over again though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JellyfishGreen Posted June 24, 2005 Report Share Posted June 24, 2005 In other news on the art front, check out the "Ranger" characters in Phantasy Star Online https://www.psobb.com/downloads/wallpaper.php https://www.psoblueburst.com/en/index.html and tell me that shock of blond hair in blue headgear doesn't ring any bells.
