Guest smbutler Posted June 2, 2000 Share Posted June 2, 2000 I'm not sure BTS would like a post that encourages disparagement of other companies, but after looking at screenshots for Hasbro's so-called Squad Leader, I think some good old fashioned public castigation is in order. What, then, are your "predictions" for upcoming projects from other companies? also from Hasbro: Horse Commander: a first person- sim of a French Hussar during the Napoleonic wars! Ride,charge, stab,etc. your way into history! Reaching a higher level will allow players to obtain new techs-- machine guns, death rays, rocket horses, --which will allow them to leave huge piles of bloody corpses on the field! Players will fight along side and against historical figures such as Napoleon, Wellington, Batman, and Hulk Hogan! A compelling, ultra realistic presentation of 19th century warefare!

Maximus Posted June 2, 2000 Share Posted June 2, 2000 id Software's Virtual Rebel: A FPS Civil War game where you can assume the role of a soldier fighting for the North or South. Technology advancements include the improvement from Muskets to Sharps Rifles. Battle will rage all around you. Arms and legs will fly! Bayonette charges! Cavalry charges. Cannister shot. The whole works! Hey actually that don't sound like a bad idea for a massive on-line multiplayer game. Just think of it. Hundreds of people trying to line up in formations to march or fire at the enemy all the while under the command of one guy. Oh wait, that sounds like WWIIOnline.

Zamo Posted June 2, 2000 Share Posted June 2, 2000 Maxis software's new title: SimDishwasher. Where you control the awesome destiny of a...dishwasher! Load, unload, rinse, agitate...It's all here! And, for the grognard, a special "Hand-washing" setting, to simulate the sculery duty at a major metropolitan diner! Fun for all ages! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maximus Posted June 2, 2000 Share Posted June 2, 2000 Sierra's new game simulating the adventures of an Army Base's latrine cleaner's duties. Tools will include plungers, scrub brushes, you name it! It's all there. Will be compatible with the new smell-o-vision cards to get that full feeling of really being there. You say that it would stink?? You bet it does!! ------------------ "While stands the Collosseum, Rome shall stand. When falls the Collosseum, Rome shall fall.

Jeff Pattison Posted June 2, 2000 Share Posted June 2, 2000 Coming this summer from makers of NHL '99, it's Beer Golf Pro 2000. Play, get drunk, and get kicked out of up to 32 famous courses . Using a new revolution in 3D virtual simulation, Puke-o-vision, this games takes the user to new heights in the simulated beer golf experience. The terrain and weather are accurately modelled, so you can trip over those oddly shaped clumps of grass while playing those summer afternoon 'lightning' rounds. With all the other features, you can do just about everything you've always wanted to do in Beer Golfing. Play without pants. Bludgeon the wildlife. Play golfcart polo. Go swimming in the pond. And much, much more.... Schnapps not included. Voted Sports Game of the Year by the Vaporware Press.

Mannheim Tanker Posted June 4, 2000 Share Posted June 4, 2000 If racing tanks isn't your form of fun, then try Frontal Lobotamy's new release - "Figure 8 School Bus Racing". It's the most red-neck fun you'll have outside the barn. Just listen to these reviews: "So much fun I dropped my chew!" - Jethro "Backhair" Higgins "More fun than a cockfight in the bayou" - anonymous "Just like the real thing, only without the bribes" - Sheriff Coletrain Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
