I like games with worlds to explore and were you get to choose what age gender and race your character is so open world games are my fav. saints row 2 is pretty much the only open world game set in modern times that allows you to choose your own character so its my favorite in that genre even though it lags behind GTA 4 when it comes programing and mini games and sheer size of the city. most of those magic and fantasy games let you choose your own character so I like those. Some linear games are okay but unless they have multipile endings then those games are pretty much a one playthrough and done with the game deal. I don't really count mass effect 1 let alone mass effect 2 as a open world game even though it might be something of a sandbox game, but it doesn't really have a world to explore and most areas in which you can walk around are pretty small and a good deal of the areas are only open for one mission and then they are closed off afterwards The only reason it gets compared to true open world games like Oblivion Fallout 3, Saints Row 2 and GTA is because it has side quests and you can chose which order to do some of the missions in. But other than that its not truly an open world game since the areas to explore are very small, Bioware don't do open world games Dragons age origins is also not truly a open world game . And mass effect 2s "open areas" are even smaller than those in the original mass effect which wasn't truly an open world game either. Of course even in most open world games most main story arcs are fairly linear since they contain missions that must be done in a certain order and the outcome of the story is likely to always be the same.

I would hope that they will do I liked sims2 on the Xbox it was cool the way they made it so you could use the sticks to move your character around like in other console games.

that feature would be even better now the sims have a whole town to walk around.

And with new gen consoles being so powerful they should be able to make a resonable version of it.

I can't see why putting the sims 3 onto the 360 would be that hard especially when you consider the amount of rpgs and games like Saints row e and gtawhich have menus as compicated as anything the sims has .

I don't want to have to buy a new pc just to get the sims 3 not only is it expensive but its also complicated to work out which is the best pc to get and not make some mistake like buying a pc that rthe sims and other games will not even work on lol.

I think that there will be no version of this game for the 360 at all though

The first magor disappointment is there is no real character creation or character choice at all so its more two worlds than it is oblivion or even sacred 2 in that way

that german mag may have given it a good review but most of the other reviews (for the 360 version)I have seen haven't been that favorable they say the controls and menus are clunky and that even equping items and finding quest locations are overly unclear and overly difficult to figure out and the game doesn't pause when you are in those menus which makes it even harder.

fighting also apperently comes under the discription of being clunky and made undesirable difficultdue to poor control methods a poorly executed lock on features ect

Apparently the publicity stills give an overly favorable impression of the game and it doesn't look anywhere near as good in reality (at least on the 360)

I will proberly get the game but dragons age interests me much more since it has much more of the elements that I like in games (character customization being able to choose the gender ect of your charcter)

the enforced character choice and bad reviews for this game may mean I may wait a while on getting this game at least until its cheaper and so if I end up hating the game it won't bother me quite so much.

especially since dragon age is only a few weeks away from release

[QUOTE="usainuk"]FahrenheitFoggel
Fahrenheit was good... in the beginning. It should've been like that through the whole game. I would have to say Grim Fandango.

where did it go wrong for you?

oh two others

Dogs life.

considering the way some people like to blame video games for every evil on the earth up to and including events like columbine its not so suprising that your parents want to put a blame on video games

Are there any games that you thought were going to be really great and were looking really forward to getting but that ended up never getting made.

For me it was

BC for the XBox by lionhead studies (it Sounded like a prehistoric sims game)

Shenmue 3

How could they leave RYO wandering the world seeking revenge without letting him or the gamers find closure !
