What games are looking for the system and what games would you like to see on the next generation platforms?

Massive online roleplaying games, such as Star Wars Galaxies. Also as many turn based strategy games as possible. How about a reincarnation of the Star Fleet Command: Orion Pirates edition for Xbox 360 with a totally revamped Dynaverse for Xbox Live (or a game similar to it). Now that would be cool.

I'm looking forward to Gears of War and Call of Duty 2 on the 360.

Call of Duty looked nice on the 360, I saw it at E3. Morrowind Oblivion for me (Call of Duty too, but Morrowind is definetly in there).

Im sorry but turn based stratiges don't relly have aney real stratigy. I mean in the real world of military a enemy team just dosent stop in motion and let another team postioin there troups and tanks. If you want a real stratigy game why don' t you try playing command an conquer or ri se of nations, bowth imply military and you must scavenge for resources. Aneyways there are plenty of addons and newer versoins ofthows games.

Nathan,
I disagree. Strategy is about out-thinking your opponent, not out-clicking them. RTS games are more about how fast you can click and react to your enemy than it is about real strategy. They are far more tactical then strategic.
A turn based game on the other hand is all about strategy. Strategy on a grand scale does not happen instantaneously even in real life. It can take weeks to move men and equipment for battle. In the process you must out-think your enemy or they will foil your plans before you can even impliment them. This is why Dai Senryaku is superior to any RTS I have played. Both types of game are fun...but you will never get the same feel for strategy that a turn based game provides.

That's okay, Nathan apparently doesn't think "chess" is a strategic game.
The other day I played a RTS that felt very strategic (and tactical, for that matter). It was Kessen 3, which I feel is the best Kessen yet.
Why didn't I come into this topic with more to say....

Nathan, you're wrong. I've been there, done that.
I already replied to your nonsense in your OTHER thread that you complained in.
Like I said, Doug has me on a short leash. Because this isn't a battlefield, it's a forum. Now, if you want to have a decent discussion, try spell check and stop thinking RTS is better when both games (TB vs RTS) all have their good points vs their bad.
Not trying to drag your method of thinking into other threads is also a good idea. Makes you less annoying that way.

Im sorry its just all to fun annoying you guyes. Yes you guys are right about some points that you have put but the fact is if you are transporthing troups, weapons, or medial supplyes thrugh enemy lines the transport will be consintley moving and if the enemy found out about this they would send a force of there own agan witch is consitntly moving. Then the two forces meat each other (still moving) and engage in combat then the commander has to make quick thinking disions due to the fact that the battle will not just pause so he can think it out!

Well, that is the tactical portion of a battle. You see, Generals see the whole picture and it's HOW they move their troops that also affect the course of a battle. World War II would have been vastly different if a few Generals responded differently to the threats that were posed.
It's called cause and effect. Turn Based doesn't mean that it takes 20 min to make a move. Keep in mind that you are moving individual units and not saying, this front keep attacking here and that that front attack there and individual commanders go and execute their orders. This game plays from the General's point of view, not that of someone that makes more tactical decisions.
Yes, maybe it's all in motion, but RTS games for the vast majority are unrealistic in their own right. There are the few that have done this well, Sudden Strike and Blitzkrieg to name two recent titles, but the vast essence of war cannot be captured outside of Turn Based.

I can't decide whether Nathan just has poor vocab skills or is he drunk?
One of the things i hate about RTS games is the fact that the AI doesn't have all of the little problems that we seem to have slowing us down: our natural less than stellar decision-to-reaction timing, problems getting the freaking mouse to do what you want it to do, missing that one unit that was a bit outside the group you were planning to 'box' highlight and send forward, etc.
AI always produces faster, acts faster, etc. The only saving grace for us mere humans is the fact that the majority of the AI setups in these games can't outthink a tipsy rodent. What we lack in speed we make up for in efficiency, cunning, and for the most part - common sense application of production and our forces.

Add in the usual drunken pathfinding and the sheer fact that tanks can't die from a 5.56mm round.

So, Doug is there any plans in the pipeline for any XBox 360 or PS3 titles? I'm looking forward to seeing what Kemco is bringing to the next Gen of gaming. *coughDaiSenryakucough*

We are currently not developing games for the Xbox 360 or PS3. 
However, that does not mean we wont in the future....
Stay tuned.
