Today’s FFD comes to you courtesy of Erwinn(nnn) Kempff. With all of this week’s terrible news, I’m too sad to even pretend to be confrontational. Instead, let’s discuss something more positive. there are great many games, from the past, that people still can’t help but yammer on about whenever gaming is talked about; titles like BioShock, Chrono Trigger, Half Life and the like – years after release.
What more current games do you think people will still be talking about in 5 to 10 years? I know I’ll still be talking about Bioshock and Bioshock Infinite, and probably will still mutter things about Half Life and Half Life 2 – mostly because we’ll still be waiting for 3.
What games do you still think will dominate conversation in the years to come?

Deus Ex
Resident Evil
COD Slurs
Anything EA slurs
ASS Creed Slurs

April 5, 2013 at 10:45
Ja, forgot about the epicness that is Deus Ex.
I hope we don’t have to wait so long for another one
Admiral Chief Erwin
April 5, 2013 at 10:38
– Bioshock yes
– (unfortunately CoD)
– Maybe Dishonored
– Half Life (if 3 comes or not)
Sir Rants-a-Lot Llew
April 5, 2013 at 10:41
Actually yeah, Dishono(u)red. It may not have lived up to expectation but it did show that a new IP can be successful and breath new life in to a genre.
I honestly hope the new Thief will prove that as well

– Dark Souls (I’ll probably show that game to any future son or daughter)
– Bioshock and Inifnite
– Red Dead Redemption
– Ni No Kuni
– Gears’ mp (“Remember that game we raged with so much?”)
– GTA IV
But those are mine, none will dominate any kind of conversation…

Mega Man and why they haven’t created a new game
Final Fantasy VS, and why they haven’t created a game they have promised
Aliens: CM and why they haven’t created a decent game
Borderlands 2, and why they have’t created free level caps
CoD, and why they haven’t stopped cut-and-pasting
SIM City: Moon, and why it is Drm still
Rant over.

Nicholas Hall
April 5, 2013 at 10:42
I’d like to believe that people will be talking about X-Com: Enemy Unknown as it revitalizes the TBS genre. I think Minecraft will still be getting a good portion of conversation time.

Darksiders and why there isn’t a Darksiders 5, first 4 to cover the four horsemen, and the 5th to pit them against the Power Rangers or some equally formidable foe…

Hopefully great kickstarted games – bringing back space sims, isometric rpgs, etc

Hehe, wondered if someone would appreciate that, have one back!

Have to agree. Also think Skyrim will still be mentioned.

Most definitely the legendary Dark souls, Xenoblade Chronicles,Bioshock Infinite, Mass Effect,Bayonetta,Shin Megami Tensei III Nocturne.

Everyone in the retirement home will wonder, why is there no Call of Duty?
Admiral Chief Erwin
April 5, 2013 at 11:02
I’ve been thinking for a CoD idea, its called RAWWWR of Duty, and features 20 something Dino’s out to fight for freedom or some such.

I’ll still be ranting about Diablo 3…and hoping that we’ll still be waxing lyrical about Torment: Tides of Numenera
Anon A Mouse
April 5, 2013 at 11:16
My list currently, and I’m not sure people even remember them now are Red Dead Redemption, Borderlands, Heavy rain and Mass Effect. There are one other title but since I just forgot the name that sort of misses the point doesn’t it.

We’ll be discussing how the latest MMO is nothing like WoW. EA will still be evil. CD Projekt would have yet another GoTY under their belt. AND how the new generation is the most important and revolutionary one yet.
PC will still be the most powerful gaming tool. And it is possible the Peter Molyneux will either bring out a great game, or get tried for fraud in a court of law.

I’ll probably still play Dota(whatever version is out). I’ll probably be playing XCOM again by then(the need for it comes and goes). I’ll still wonder about what happened to Advent Rising. I’ll still want a new Star Control. And I’ll always want a proper Knights of the Old Republic sequel.

Dues Ex
Mass Effect
Star Wars Kotor (I and II) will probably still be relevant as the best and only (sniff) star wars role playing action we got. I hope not 🙁

I seriously think that I will still be going on about this Lara Croft! I absolute love that game, and hope that they don’t can the next one because they thought they will sell 10 million of this current one…. Because I want more of this Lara… (Not meant in a sexual way, get your mind out of the gutter) And I will be playing Full Throttle and Resident Evil 2 probably then for the 100 and 150th time

A comment I read on youtube for the Chrono Trigger orchestra that I listen to religiously .. guys this is the true power of games!!!!!
“My name is Marcos..I’m from Brazil..I’m 23 years old..I was a child grew up very poor..where many people have suffered and I could not do anything but watch..grew up keeping in mind that one day would the savior of these people and only God and my soul knows how much I suffered and struggled so far..and I will continue fighting..and since I found this story I? clung hard and learned a lot..Chrono actually made ??me a person better and stronger..like I’m the chosen one..Believe in yourself..”

GTA, Max Payne and Crysis simply because it was always a gfx benchmark.

For me Personally
The Wins:
Deus Ex HR: For living up to its predecessor
Far Cry 3: Being Epic and beautiful sandbox
Tomb Raider: For Epic Reboot.
Saints Row 3: For being a lunatic.
Fails:
Diablo 3: DRM decision
Diablo 3: Launch day DRM mess
Sim City: Repeating History
COD: Being prime example of Copy and Past job.

Unless some miraculous wonder game come along and re writes all the rules most probably Mass Effect.

Bioshock for all the men not slaves out there. The whole concept and now of Infinite too.
