The most revolutionary game OF ALL TIME!

Mario 64

If it realy revolutionarized gaming,why aren't we seeing more and more games like that?MonsieurX

So,you call a basketball game a mix of TPS,RPG and RTS? Graphics better than U2? If it realy revolutionarized gaming,why aren't we seeing more and more games like that?MonsieurX

It's the dirty little secret within the video game industry. Developers don't make many basketball games so that the masses don't pay much attention. That way people are left unaware of NBA Street Homecourt's revolutionary status and other devs can claim such a title for their games, when all they're really doing is emulating the basketball game.

I would pick

The Legend of Zelda

Super Mario Bros

UFO: Enemy Unknown

DOOM

Pong

(Super) Streetfighter 2 (Turbo)

But hey, each to his own... man I still love the SF2 theme :P

I am definitely bookmarking this thread when the System Wars Awards return and will be nominating it for "Funniest Thread of the Year"

Im not taking this seriously. I fail to see how this game is revolutionary in anyway possible, not calling it bad, but.....

Come on dude....... This is embarrassing..........

I'm happy for you, and ima let you finish, but chess: revolutionary war edition was the most revolutionary game of all time.

Yeah, that's it....

Wolfenstein3D.Who would imagine that after almost 20 years 90% of games would still be following its formula!

It wasn't the first freeroaming game by a long shot (either 3d or 2d). This article explains some of it, and even then it's missing important series like Ultima (which I'd call the most revolutionary series of all time).

Personally my most revolutionary game of all time is Resident Evil back on the Playstation. When someone mention survival-horror you immediately think of Resident Evil without really any hestitation. Sure there were games like Alone in the Dark during that time, but Resident Evil really brought survival-horror to the masses. Not to mention it was one of the first game to introduce actual cinematic video footage into games. If it wasn't for this game I don't think the survival horror genre would be this big during this era.

All that needs to have been said, has already been said.

Hm, I don't think 'being popular' makes it the most revolutionary game of all time.

As you said, Alone in the Dark came out a few years earlier and had pretty much all of the same gameplay mechanics, and there were heaps of games before it that used real-life footage in them, many using that footage throughout the entire game.

It's a great game and certainly influential, but it didn't really do anything new.

Look guys, Free Advertising?

i read the first 5 pages and i'm just THRILLED that not one single personposted "Halo" man.........maybe the gaming community has finally gotten their heads out of there behinds. Awesome!

[QUOTE="BrunoBRS"] lol i believe you :P @phoenix- awesome, isn't it :Pstenderoni

Really awesome. Also, stenderoni, how in the world does a basketball video game change your life?

Before i listened to Heavy Metal i didnt care about what i was listening.

After i started listening, the second i herd MJ on the radio, i went and threw it out the window and beat it up with my bare fists till the CD that was stil inside got stuck in betwen my fingers and didnt come out...

True art does change lives.

Seriusly. We can see how amazingly super uber unbelivably chuck norris is not so awsome awsome this game is to you. But i suspect blogs are for this? Cuz here its not a discussion realy. Its just *some guy states something that NBA:SHC isnt revolutionary, you come in and say yes it is no matter what*. If this was a discussion you would provide valid points of people to discuss over... Like all the amazing features the game had for the first time IN ALL OF GAMING (not on the 360, in entire gaming, otherwise change your title).

No, not really. Nobody wants to emulate a sports sim, that is why they aren't doing it. There are better games out there, go try some.

haha at least it wasnt halo 3 or something like that

Will you shut up about this NBA game already. Nobody cares!! No way is it the most revolutionary game. Get a life!JDW_games

well, its definetltly the best puzzle game ever;) i'd put it in no.6 in "most revolutionary games of all time"

you know what game i really hate? that one called nba street homecourt. i did not think it added anything new to the genre.h2owizard

[QUOTE="mo0ksi"][QUOTE="skrat_01"]There is no such thing. Enough.stenderoni

They know that revolutionary games exist. They are saying that there is no such the as the most revolutionary game. And this game is NOT on the list.

[QUOTE="stenderoni"][QUOTE="mo0ksi"] This. There are several revolutionary games but there's nothing that can be deemed as the most revolutionary due to the different genres in play.randomwiiplayer

[QUOTE="stenderoni"] I used to think like this too but then I played NBA Street Homecourt. Now I know that there are such things as revolutionary games. stenderoni

It didn't revolutionize anything. It is just another sports game. And where exactly did you pull the information that I haven't played it from? I have played it, it is nothing special. It did not, and will not change gaming in any way. Mario 64 did it with its 3D platforming, Halo did it with it making FPSs good on consoles, yet this did nothing.
