Too Human & Duke Nukem Forever will go down as two of the best games of all

Wait!? Wtf!? Is BlackBond crazy? Has he lost him mind? No silly. I will logically explain 8)

A lot of people seem to think that a lot of dev time equals a good game

• Duke Nukem Forever = 10 Years
• Too Human = 9 Years

A lot of people seem to think that a huge budget equals a good game

• Too Human = Has the biggest Budget in gaming history surpassing Shenmue
• Duke Nukem Forever = Unconfirmed but man you know they sunk some serious $$$ with a 10 year dev time lol

I mean if you want further proof look at Prey. 11 Years in the making and god :shock: that game was amazing.

Take it from me. You heard it here first. The best way to make an amazing game is this.

Long development cycle = The longer the better. Game development is like a fine wine. Games only get better with age.

Huge Budgets= Budgets in Video games are like the Yankees and the World Series. Its an automatic win everytime.

Large Development Staff = I mean Developing a game is like fighting a gang war. To quote Thugnificant, "Fight fair!? We don't fight fair we believe in overwhelming force." The more devs you have the better. I mean I'm talking bout like rolling 120 deep! Yeah that's what I'm talking bout.

So remember System Wars next time you look to hype a game. Be sure you know how much Money, Development time, and developers are working on the game BEFORE you hype it.

In spite of your sarcasm, I still think Too Human will be a VERY good game.

Just my two cents worth.

I know you're being sarcastic, but Prey is one of my favorite games of the last 5 years. :(BioShockOwnz

hellz yeah. how often does an FPS have a story like that. it was awesome.

And the first game to use portals. And yes they talked about the portal system back when it was first announced around the time the original Quake hit stores.

Don't make stuff up.

[QUOTE="Vandalvideo"] No, it wasn't the first game to use portals. There was an indie game for the PC back in the 90s that used portals.JiveT

Portals are an easy concept.... you can do them on anything, even flash ...

Blackbond did you just create a joke topic :? I can't tell if your serious or not. Your hyping TH & DN because of large budget and big teams etc but you bash KZ2 when it has the same things going for it.Swift_Boss_A

:lol:

Before I clicked on the topic I was like wtf? Then I thought about it and realized just recently I got into an argument with some Killzone 2 fans and how they said its going to be great because they're spending so much time and money on it. So I figured this would be a joke thread about dev time and budget.

Oh add Killzone 2 up there as well.Blackbond

Please read the previous post of mine before posting please.

Boondocks=pure awesomeness 8)

Need I remind you of Daikatana, Blackbond? Ion Storm's crown jewel, made in a studio flush with money and staff, in development for years and years?

It doesn't always work that way.

Is Thugnificant Colin Powell's chatname on AOL? That was the Powell Doctrine.JiveT

Nope.

Nope.

Oh. It's an obvious reference to the Powell Doctrine the wording and everything. I never thought too much of the cartoon strip so I never watched the TV show. Just typical liberal nonsense IMO.

And Elvis is ALIVE.

Aaron McGruder makes plenty of references to politics and world issues. It is a reference to the Powell Doctorine. Only said by a rapper.

BB, at it again. Though I have to admit the people guaranteeing quality for those reasons are asking for this.Ibacai

What were they asking for :|

I think Diaktana wants to say hello.

Sorry about the bad spelling for it, but you know the game.
