Easy one this Gizz,

Frontier.

I'd love to see a new version of Frontier with better AI, more ships and a more detailed universe to explore.  The sheer open-endedness of the game made it playable in a way that few games since can equal.  Better yet, a new version of Frontier would lend itself well to online gaming, as has been seen recently with Eve.

Speaking of which, does anyone here subscribe to Eve?  From what I've seen of it I'd give it a go were it not for the fact there's no broadband in my neck of the woods.

I betatested EVE. It's cool!

I agree that a sequel to Frontier would be cool.
But only as long as it's playable in single-player mode.

It depends...  You could either have a closed arena "dogfight" style game in multiplayer mode or each online player could play a part in a whole evolving galaxy where both human gamers and AI characters are involved.  The latter would require a dedicated server with lots of processing power, but it's a nice thought.

I always wanted a Megalomania sequel.. Cannon Fodder sucked.

There was a sequel for Frontier (Frontier: First Encounters) which deservedly got very bad press, but the good news is that Braben is working on Elite 4. Not full-time (it's more like a project which is worked on whenever someone has a good idea; at least that's how interpret the scarce amount of info Braben hands out) but there is definitely something brewing.

Greetings,

Doh! I forgot to mention Frontier II.. thanks.

I would like to see a multiplayer option with that game on all classic and future Amigas as well. That would really give them a run on all those network type RPG games.

Fontier II was a brave project, but the open endedness of the prequal was lost to a large degree.  It simply wasn't as great a step forward as it should have been, and that's before we remember the crippling bugs that were present in the early versions.

I spent many hours playing Frontier and it's an absorbing game that soaks up many hours of gameplay.  The only other game I've played with a similar approach to open endedness and freedom of gameplay is GTA3 on the PS2...

Actually Another World has a sequel(ish): Flashback, and a 3D threequal (?): Fade to Black.

There was a sequel on Sega MegaCD called Heart of the Alien that picked up where the first game left off (in fact it had the first game on it too so you could play it as one huge game if you wanted)

Syndicate, no doubt.
(one of rare games I finished)


.. don't tell me about Syndicate wars, cause I never liked 'em
(and not on Amiga anyway)

Gods

Bring back polished platformers!

Gods still looks the part even today...

there was a thing on elite4 on slashdot the other day. looks like a big ar5e work in progress due for release at the begining of next year.

the guy behind it was looking at doing it like starwars galaxies.. the whole Megaly Massive Multiplayer Online Game (MMOG) thing. but he was only looking at that after making sure that you could still fly about in a non linear universe and basicly due what you wanted, like in elite, and elite2 (fronteiererere how ever you spell that), as thats what made the game in the first place.

given the amount of detail they are talking about, i'm guessing it'll prolly be a DVD release, and high spec PC.
BUT as with most games. if you cut down the detail, its playable on most older machines too...

maybe a petition to ..... i can't remember the guys name, for some guys to be given the code to do an amiga version? as they prolly won't be interested in doing it themselves as there is no real comparitive money in it.

i'd buy it.
