The "I Miss X Game" Thread

[Cactus Drags]

I don't really miss it as I never played it when it came out, but I have to obtain a copy of Jaws Unleashed. Jaws drags a motherfucking helicopter underwater!

[Toe]

Twisted Metal. Any of them.

[DMN in the House]

A company that I believe was called 'Spiderweb Software' made a series of games called 'Exile', where you were a quintet of adventurers exiled underground, where you had adventures. In the second one, you found this alien culture down a waterfall, and in the third, you went back to the surface. Awesome RPGs.

They made a series called 'Avernum' which was kinda similar, but it wasn't the same.

Can't find those games for shit

[Redefine Sick]

The Incredible Machine, fuck yeah.

[EWB's Best Poster.]

A remake or sequel to Grim Fandango. Just a game where I have to use a ridiculous combination of items to open a door or something.

Could try the monkey island remakes, or sam and max games.

Without a doubt the one game I would love to see a sequel to or remake of?

Syndicate wars.

Fuck yes.

[SeanDMan]

X-Games?

[ChrisSteeleAteMyHamster]

I'd like a new X-Com game basically the same as the original but with slightly spruced up graphics, load times and some extra stuff.

Although it was very similar to the Lord of the Rings story, this game was awesome. It's probably the hardest game I've ever played. I remember the game's manual being about 2 inches thick, too.

Shenmue, the original for the Dreamcast was just out of this world. Id still take it over any other game of the last ten years.

I miss Broken Sword 1 & 2. They need to make more games like this. Changing it to 3D ruined the series I think. I can still play the first two to this day.

LEGEND OF DRAGOON.

I loved that game to bits as a kid, but I never managed to buy it, only borrow from a local rental store. And I've never seen it since.

[DJ Ice]

Hogs of War

Fuck I want that game back

good news for you then. Theres talk of making the third again as recently as a week ago

[badotori]

Jade Cocoon 2 and Dark Cloud for me. Had both of them years ago, traded them in and now really wish I had them still.

Broken Sword. Which was basically games about the lengths a guy would go to for pussy on a gap year.

Fucking hell, didn't realise they'd been 4 of them. Thought it finished after 2. Guess I know what I'm buying.

Check some reviews first. I never bought the third, but from what I remember its more box pushing in 3D than actual puzzle solvering.

On a related note would highly recommend Telltales Tales of Monkey Island series. Its no Monkey Island 2, but its certainly worth playing.

[StevenRichardsRules]

Pirates: Gold.

Also, Gunstar Heroes!!!

[Herr Matzat]

Theme Park.

They need to make Rollercoaster Tycoon 2 current gen computer compatible and release more addones!

As for Point and click adventures. With the iPad around (it´s perfect for these games, Broken Sword is around aswell), telltale getting bigger and the Monkey Island rereleases (i read somewere more Lucas Arts games are comming) i hope that we get get that gnere back soon.

There is a fan made broken sword 2.5 that is suposed to be good.

Spiderweb

I played these too. I think you can still get them on shareware, which is a word that hasn't been used on the internet in a decade.

[Rocketbusta]

I miss the Uncharted Waters series... New Horizons (UW2) was much better than the first, but even with the first I could spend days at a time playing it without getting bored.

Also, BaseWars
