I remember someone here mentioned that PC gaming is dying (again). Well, that definitely will not happen in 2007. Watch the list:

some of them look very good, but I'll wait and see, the list looks a little too good

Yeah...especially that Master of Magic inspired game (can't wait...hope it's pretty good)

.

Mythic Wars I think is the one, that does look pretty good

These days PC gaming is getting way off the charts in terms of price
A good computer that will last a few years can cost 3000+ in Singapore dollars(I live in Brunei btw)

I am still sticking to my 5 or 6 year old computer(which is quite sad actually)

Pretty many games, but I'll like maximum 10 anyway. Can delete all adventure ones right away.

I agree with you Chai26. It gets too expensive to keep upgrading computer technology, which becomes out-date in a few months. That's the major reason I stick with consoles.

Or you could just play new games at low settings. Should look about as good as the console versions.

omg... what a waste of time if you ask me... personally I wish I would have never discovered video games... that way I could of used a lot of time in my life for something else... more useful that's for sure...

That's the sad truth of videogames.

And you could not sleep too, i mean, that's just wasted time.

This list seems pretty good but I can't be sure for anything today.
I was happy thought to see so many single-player RPGs on 1 single
year(i feared that these damn mmos will take wverything

). It was
also good to see few turn-based realeases too(my favorite combat style
to all rpgs). But from few words and screenshots you can't be sure about
the quality of a game.

About the cost to keep an upgraded pc and the price of games, and
the cost to create a game, and about the money that earn from the
gamers/victims the gaming industry are all known to us . It is known
to all now that computer gaming is just a part of the industry and not
this special form of art that we met many years ago...

And after all of this time...you still have to ask?

I hope they make Master of Magic 2 and Fallout 3 though (won't happen this year...that's for sure).

Omega_Destroyer · Unread postby **Omega_Destroyer** » 19 Feb 2007, 18:59

Fallout 3 is in the works. Bethesda is developing it.

winterfate · Unread postby **winterfate** » 19 Feb 2007, 19:08

The thing is that Bethesda has kept the production of Fallout 3 behind closed doors. So, it's hard to tell whether they're sitting on the license or actually working on it.

Omega_Destroyer · Unread postby **Omega_Destroyer** » 19 Feb 2007, 20:23

Well, apparently the game uses the same engine as Oblivion, so I imagine they have been working on it for some time.

Campaigner · Unread postby **Campaigner** » 23 Feb 2007, 09:52

Seems like I'll finally play a fallout game....

About Master of Magic 2....Stardock (who wanted to do Master of Magic 2) is working on an unannounced fantasy TBS which might be a "spiritual successor" to Master of Magic just like Supreme Commander is to Total Annihilation. That is what I hope for and logic says that's what they're doing since it would be alot easier than to design a whole new system.

I just certainly hope they're focusing on a spriritual successor to MoM and not a GalCiv 2 in a fantasy world. No tactical combat = nono.
