Azrael Strife Posted November 26, 2007 Report Share Posted November 26, 2007 That game looks awfully similar to Star Control (Ur-Quan Masters, if you played the Open Source version), is it anything like it? been trying to find a game even remotely as good as that one for long time!

Slaughter Posted November 26, 2007 Author Report Share Posted November 26, 2007 Deus Ex 3 in development... I was very excited when the second game started development. After that train wreck I'm a cautious optimist at best (both because of the prequel and the state of the gaming industry in general). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Azrael Strife Posted November 26, 2007 Report Share Posted November 26, 2007 I sure hope they don't screw up again, any ideas if they're targeting both consoles and PC again? if they are, I think I already know how the game will be Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gimli Posted November 27, 2007 Report Share Posted November 27, 2007 Wow, Weird Worlds (WWW?) is quite nice! By the way, 14259. I had almost half the time, too. I love the mercenaries. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Azrael Strife Posted November 29, 2007 Report Share Posted November 29, 2007 'Weird Worlds' is an apt title for a game of, well... discovery. Hurl yourself into space with your ship and who knows what might happen. There's basically no number crunching involved and anything you need to know about any planet, ship, artifact, event, mercenary, whatever is quickly conveyed visually by a textual description and some art. What little there is to learn will be promptly dispensed by the built-in tutorial. Even if you spend only a small amount of time with it I think it's fair to say you'll come away with some fun stuff to share with others. Here's a brief list of memorable things that happened during my time with the demo: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Space Voyager Posted November 29, 2007 Report Share Posted November 29, 2007 Is this something like Freelancer? Better? It definitely seems something I SHOULD try out... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thorondor Posted November 29, 2007 Report Share Posted November 29, 2007 You've surely taken your sweet time happening by this thread, SV. :: "It definitely seems something I SHOULD try out..." Let me put it this way, then: I'll keel-haul you throughout the wacky voids of Weird Worlds' fathomless space pits if you're not playing the demo already. (harr! *cough*) Now get cracking! p.s.: did I mention this game snuggly meets you system's specs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Space Voyager Posted November 29, 2007 Report Share Posted November 29, 2007 I have a preview to write before I can afford the luxury of trying this out... https://i22.photobucket.com/albums/b348/SpaceVoyager/Smiley/crying.gif I've noticed the thread (and checked the specs) on the day the news was posted but decided I shouldn't even think about it for a while. Now I just couldn't hold back any more. I deserve a good https://i22.photobucket.com/albums/b348/SpaceVoyager/Smiley/smackbutt.gif, I know.

Azrael Strife Posted November 29, 2007 Report Share Posted November 29, 2007 Seriously, Space Voyager, you ought to try this game I promise an average game is no longer than 10-15 minutes, do give it a try! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Space Voyager Posted December 13, 2007 Report Share Posted December 13, 2007 I WILL try the game, AFTER I kick my arse and finish what I HAVE to... DARN I'm having problems getting to it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Knan Posted December 13, 2007 Report Share Posted December 13, 2007 Weird Worlds? Star Control II, mostly, with bits of the Orion series. Easier to get into and quicker to finish - again and again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LordFu Posted December 14, 2007 Report Share Posted December 14, 2007 Just to throw in my $.02. Weird Worlds is an awesome coffee-break game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Space Voyager Posted December 17, 2007 Report Share Posted December 17, 2007 Woooohooo! Not a strategy, but one of the very few FPS that I actually WANT. AND it's for PC as well! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matri Posted December 17, 2007 Report Share Posted December 17, 2007 Sounds promising. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slaughter Posted December 17, 2007 Author Report Share Posted December 17, 2007 If it comes even close to the first one, I'll be happy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Azrael Strife Posted December 17, 2007 Report Share Posted December 17, 2007 If it comes even close to the first one, I'll be happy What "first one" do you mean? Is this "Alien" game referring to the aliens from "Alien vs Predator"? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Space Voyager Posted December 17, 2007 Report Share Posted December 17, 2007 What "first one" do you mean? Is this "Alien" game referring to the aliens from "Alien vs Predator"?Well, it seems as though this new game will only feature xenomorphs and humans since it's supposed to be set in Aliens (movie) universe. No predators there... Definitely something to be excited about (for more than a year ) although I'd like to see a new AvP even more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Definitely something to be excited about (for more than a year ) although I'd like to see a new AvP even more.I asked if he was talking about the aliens from AvP not if there were Predators. Indeed, any Aliens game is a game to be excited about, I'm not that interested in the Predators, mind you, so I don't really care if they release any further AvP games. AvP2 (the game) was one of the best FPS I ever played, but only because of the Aliens (what else? the Predators showed up only once or twice in the entire game and they are not what I'd call an interesting encounter), I can't wait to see what they can come up with Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gimli Posted December 19, 2007 Report Share Posted December 19, 2007 So... given how trailers usually come out in mid development, maybe we'll see DNF in 10 years or so? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matri Posted December 19, 2007 Report Share Posted December 19, 2007 If it comes out with 20+ year old graphics, I'm gonna cry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
