I really wish I could stay up to what the trends shift, if only to see
the worried topics on B8 from people who don't know trends. --- http://thengamer.com/guru/ |

MI is really starting to stall now. Also, what is it with Europe not getting games, anyway? Do game companies think that Europeans are scared of getting quality material? --- http://thengamer.com/guru/ |

MyWorldIsCrono | Posted 4/11/2009 10:16:28 PM | message detail |
From: KamikazePotato | #364 No, its more if it'll turn a profit. For europe, you always need to make several languages worth; thus, lots of time and resources and put into the translations. This might not be worth the time and money spent if you don't turn a profit. Thus why rpgs generally didn't go to europe. --- http://card.mygamercard.net/nxe/albion+hero.png http://seitoacademy.files.wordpress.com/2008/09/lucky-star1.jpg |
creativename | Posted 4/11/2009 10:17:01 PM | message detail |
The only adventure games I ever played that I truly like were the Quest
for Glory games. Never played Grim Fandango or Monkey Island. Well, creativename was calling me a liar and saying it gets no strength from it. I don't take kindly to that. What are you talking about, I never said you were a liar, I don't doubt that it was in some schools. Where do you get this stuff from. I said it's getting virtually none of its strength from being in schools, and that's true. it's not comparable to Oregon Trail at all. That's like saying FFVII draws strength from classrooms if 5,000 classrooms had it as an anti-terrorism measure. Ignore the fact that FFVII labels the terrorists as heroes, if you don't mind. Indeed :) --- Save_Us.RAT BREAK THE BLOCK DOWN |
