Ubi, THQ Announce New Games Ahead of E3
North Koreans? Naaaaaaa, that could never happen...
However, a half-pipe in times square, now that's plausible.
SWSWSWSWSWSWSWFTW.
North Koreans are the only nation that's still socially acceptable to cast as the black-hearted villain. And, I hear there is a Red Dawn remake in the works.
As timely as today's headlines, as they say.
i miss ssx :(
@OmegaPirate: ha! i know, dude that series was so good --- its such a shame to see EA shelving it. ... [more]
Freedom Fighters already did it, and about as well as it could possibly be done since that game was fantastic. I'll wait and see but I don't know how that game will turn out.
i miss ssx :(
Anyway, I wasn't a fan of the first Shan White game or Frontlines so I'm not interested.
It is funny, I've been listening to last years E3 Bombcasts (missed them the first time around, don't look at me like that) and they talk a lot about how Shaun White lacked a lot of character. If a half-pipe in the middle of NYC doesn't count as character, I don't know what does.
Red Dawn kicks ass, also.
Wasn't David Jaffe working on a game called Homefront with a very similar plot involving the Chinese? If I remember correctly, it never saw fruition because of controversial decisions the character would have to make, such as choosing whether or not to shoot civilians and things like that.
I think I saw SWSWS at SXSW but prefer SSX.
SWSWSWSWSWSWSWSWS FTW !
@OmegaPirate: SSX Blur on the Wii already happened.
If it snowed in Times Square, a bunch of people in lawn chairs would have to find some other place to sit since it's closed to traffic now.
@PenguinDust: Depend on who's the "socially"
Given that Milius is behind it, I doubt he'd care so much about social acceptability; he'd probably just try to think who would be most likely to do it and run with that. I don't think North Korea is in a good position to invade a salad bowl, but those of us who live in concrete bunkers can still dream, can't they?
Doesn't mean they can't cause trouble for their neighbors, though, obviously.
Okay for one thing I AM AN AMERICAN SOLDIER LIVING IN SOUTH KOREA!!! Now the south korean military alone can wipe out North Korea, not the mention Russia (as much as they hate us, they hate north korea even more), Japan (they just hate korea), Sweden, Norway, and not to mention the US and wherever we go, the British for some reason follow. So when North Korea makes threats, they're just threats, they know the only reason they're still there, is because we aren't imperialistic.
