E3 2011 Predictions

[abigsmurf]

It's rumoured that the makers of Rollercoaster Tycoon are making another rollercoaster game... for Kinect.

*cries*

Ugh, that sounds horrible. Why can't they just make RCT4 for the PC. It's been years since the last one.

[Flabio]

Microsoft are the leakiest company around, they can never keep anything secret!

Indeed.

What I'd actually like to see at E3 is Sony parade the hackers responsible for the PSN hack, along with death warrants for all of them and have KB execute them live on stage.

Totally agree with this. Alternatively they could post their addresses and give each affected PSN member a free flight to go and kick their arse.

What's so bad with that, surely an update of a slow paced, mouse controlled game is perfect for kinect and is probably more suited than using a controller. The developers have already shipped a kinect title so they should be familiar with it.

[abigsmurf]

It's a game that takes hours. Do you really want to be standing up and waving your arms around all that time?

I'd be surprised if it was even a management sim tbh.

[Family Fry]

If I can sit down and navigate a dashboard I sure as hell hope that a year on kinect developer can make a sim game where I can sit down and play on kinect.

[EvilBoris]

You don't need to stand to use kinect or even flail your arms around for hours at a time and half of the time is spent waiting for money isn't it?. The other option is that it's not infact RCT but perhaps a Kinect version of that collection of theme park based mini games made by frontier

Alternatively, you could go to Cambridge and beat the entire dev team to death with a joypad as revenge for forcing their games and Microsoft's hardware out of your bank account and into your home.

[abigsmurf]

Them spending time developing a mini game collection or more likely "build your own rollercoaster then collect stars as you ride it by waving your arms!!!" means they're probably not spending time making RCT4

Hoping to see Thief 4 at the show as it's been in development since 2009.

Haven't even seen a screenshot since it was announced.

[PeteJ]

There was a tiny fraction of gameplay footage for Thief 3 in one of the Deus Ex 3 dev videos. It really isn't worth hunting down though as you can't see anything.

Oh, and...it begins.

You can't say that advertising isn't effective. Just one look at that and it's made me want to take my car to a car wash!

That's awesome!

Also I imagine Thief has taken a back seat while they finish of Deus Ex. We'll probably hear more once that's out.

Shemue 3 , kinect exclusive!
