More proof DS > PSP = Jagged Alliance DS

[QUOTE="jonnyt61"]One thing I find odd in this thread, is all the "True gamers" posting about how people who don't like this game are "Kids" and "know nothing about gaming"

So, because someone doesn't enjoy the genre you do, they're instantly less of a gamer than you? :| That's some weird, arrogant and self-centered logic there.

Normally, I'd agree, but most of the people who are saying they don't think this game is all that, are basing those claims on the fact it's a Turn Based Strategy. I enjoy TBS as much as anyone, but I'd never look down on someone for disliking a title based on it's genre.

:? I've never heard of Jagged Alliance... nor does it look appealing to my tastes.

What exactly is it? RTS?

Well here's a link to a Gamespot article confirming it. Not my type of game though.

Zassimick

Yeah, this is the first time I've ever seen it

Still I guess it could be ok for RTS fans...

[QUOTE="MagnuzGuerra"]What's up with those console kids bashing the game? :? [QUOTE="WAIW"]

From what I've looked up, it seems to be a remake/port/edition of Jagged Alliance 2 Gold.

Makari

It's a direct port of the original Jagged Alliance. While it was a very good game, it has some very obvious gameplay faults (though it's possible the DS will be fixing these) like no free movement what-so-ever within maps that contain enemy combatants. Therefore, you must sometimes circle endlessly with characters who don't have enough movement points to catch up to the enemy character who is running from you >_>

With a little luck, the DS version will include the movement system found in JA2 which is an absolute gem of a game that anyone and everyone should play. So fantastic.

In summary, Jagged Alliance DS will most likely be worth playing if you aren't completely tied up in graphics. And if they fix the irritating movement system.

Jagged Alliance is an extremely open ended strategy game with Roleplaying.

Watch the trailer for Jagged Alliance 3

You go online to mercenary and gun stores and order them to an open island that you can explore without linearity. You can blow open any wall of any building and execute plans with equipment and mercs tailor made for your sort of operation. You execute each mission (which you decide upon yourself as it's non linear) with a great deal of creativity.

It's really good.

Well this news made my day.

Cannot wait to get my hands on it, turn based strats like Advanced Wars or AoE2 DS are perfect for hand helds, and just the prospect of JA on DS is awesome.

Now if only they could get X-Com on DS. That would be godly.

As long as it has as much depth as the originals id be ecstatic.
