Christ. Cynacide is already working on a Game of Thrones game...

Really wish the author would've done his research....

Read the article. He acknowledges the game but doesn't feel it would do the game show/book justice.

Baka-akaB5117d ago (Edited 5117d ago )

but his idea wont necessarily neither . A rpg to explore westeros ? Ok then it cant mostly be heavily be linked to the books and focus instead on new chars adventures or previous ones .

You can't easily do otherwise , besides a strategy game , when as much time is spent in courts and among characters dialoguing , rather than your regular fantasy battles and action scenes .

Imo a rts is the perfect fit for A Song of Fire and Ice , compared to some brawler , or fighting nobodies in a rpg .

Again the serie is even more about court intrigues and war strategies and alliances , than epic action tales .

DonMingos5117d ago (Edited 5117d ago )

@Baka-akaB, I tottaly agree.

While I was watching the series it was like watching an RTS game on tv without the battles (don't really know why they don't show the battles on the show).

It's all about diplomacy, intrigue, alliances and 8 houses fighting for the 7 kingdoms. That is all about an RTS game with a strong online/lan component, to play with 7 other friends, each one taking care of it's own house (We could even include the house of Greyjoy and the Dotrakhi).

If Cyanide can make it work it will be awesome

bobrea5117d ago

Yea, more video games based on movies and shows is exactly what we need. Developers working on original titles sure would suck

zoks3105117d ago (Edited 5117d ago )

Agreed, like the book is not enough we have to have a show and a video game also, only things missing are a clothing line, a food sponsorship, a soap opera, and an etching on the Moon.

bobrea5116d ago

Hell, I don't even think the show is anything special. I've watched four episodes so far and I can't get over how mediocre it is. I'm really, really trying to like it since I love fantasy stuff and all of my friends love it, but I can't.

ViserysTargaryen5117d ago

Can't wait until I can reclaim the Seven Kingdoms from the Usurper without the aid of these Dothraki dogs.

Perjoss5117d ago

spoiler alert!!

Lucreto5117d ago

ViserysTargaryen5117d ago

DonMingos5117d ago

You don't have dragon blood...

A Dragon can't be hurt with fire

Eamon5117d ago

ViserysTargaryen5117d ago

Eamon5117d ago

It exists and works: This is the portable Xbox 360

Its creator eliminated components that were not essential to speed up its development, such as the Bluetooth of the controls.

The Outerhaven writes: Split/Second was the explosive arcade racing game that outshone Ridge Racer and Burnout. That is, until Disney shut it all down before a sequel could happen.

As a kid i had some heart attacks playing this game. The soundtrack right on point with those close calls. I love this game.

shadowhaxor17h ago

Agreed. I still love it and play it often. Still sucks that Disney was like, nah... this game didn't do well, when it did well against other racers and reviewed well.

MaximusPrime_16h ago

Split/Second was one of the game I enjoyed playing. In fact it's still the most popular video on my YouTube channel. It's a gameplay of Split/Second posted 15 years ago. This past month 25 people viewed it. Split/Second is a favourite amongst racing gamers worldwide.

AuraAbjure13h ago

This game was super awesome and hella fun playing split-screen with the homie. Trashing your friend’s car during split-screen competition using one of those QuickTime events was so funny haha

That and Blur both deserve a sequel, they came out within days of eachother.

Project: Horned Owl Review

From the mid-1980s to the early part of the 2000s, light gun rail shooters were a staple in both arcade and home system gaming. Arguably, the genre started to really hit its stride in the mid-1990s. While games like Time Crisis, Virtual Cop, and House of the Dead, among others, dominated both the home system and arcade space, some one relegated to only home game systems. Today, we’ll be talking about a little-known cult game published by Sony called Project: Horned Owl. This game was developed by Alfa Systems, and all in all, this is a fun game.
