Does this mean if Walz becomes Vice President of the United States we could finally see a Skies of Arcadia remaster?

My brother in arms, to battle!

u/Outlaw11091 Aug 21 '24

Speaking of Hills...

Silent Hill needs mentioned, imo.

u/DarthNeo79 Aug 21 '24

0o0o0o0 half life my shyt. "For Good reEEEEEason" that part echos in my head 😆

u/jormugandr Aug 22 '24

I would settle for Half Life 2: Episode 3 like the original plan. I don't need a new engine with ray tracing and HDR and whatever new shit they would want to throw in. Just make the final entry of the story in the old engine. I just want to play it. Finish the goddamn story (and I refuse to read the story that was leaked a while back. I want it for real.)

u/ray25lee Aug 22 '24

Speaking of "Hill," how about they court-order to PT become what it was meant to be?

u/NarcoMonarchist Aug 22 '24

Wasn't 3 just Alyx instead? P sure we ain't ever getting a proper 3rd.

u/thegreenmonkey69 Aug 22 '24

Oh shit! HL3 confirmed.

1

u/D-Spornak Aug 22 '24

My husband agrees wholeheartedly! He's also been waiting for a Half Life movie since the dawn of time.

1

u/fletcherkildren Aug 22 '24

Right with ya on HL3

u/seussman71 Aug 22 '24

Was hoping this fraction of a thread was going to end with this statement. Half Life for life!

u/_ALT3RNAT3_ Aug 22 '24

DmC: Devil May Cry 2, and I’m dead on spot

u/[deleted] Aug 21 '24

Can he help pass legislation that forces Valve to develop and release Half Life 3?

2

u/RnotSPECIALorUNIQUE Aug 21 '24 edited Aug 22 '24

Am I so old that asking for Half Life 2 3 isn't a meme any more?

1

u/MrCherry09 Aug 22 '24

(I am assuming you meant Half-Life 3 and not 2)

It's a meme, but Half-Life at least recently got a new entry. Don't get me wrong, i would LOSE MY SHIT if Half-Life 3 released, but another Portal entry would make more sense.

2

u/Proper_Shock_7317 Aug 22 '24

Titanfall 3 !!!!! ALL. DAY. LONG.

u/WithFullForce Aug 22 '24

Not even the White House can make GabeN count to 3.

u/improper84 Aug 21 '24

Valve gets sanctioned until they finally release a fucking sequel.

Don't threaten me with a good time

u/sumtinsumtin_ Aug 21 '24

POWERSTONE!!!

For real though, what do you think his game was? My guess it was a 2k series or Sports but would love if it was PowerStone or Virtua Tennis. Both stole so many hours and gave me the best memories. Skies of Arcadia too even though I'm more of a Grandia 2 fan.

5

u/Robeleader Aug 21 '24

Legit response.

Powerstone was a surprisingly effective and fun fighting game that I'm surprised never came back in any way. the NFL 2K games were how I started even caring about sports.

Grandia was a great game, but it was just barely too linear for me. you never return anywhere, and there's no real exploration outside of the game path (unless you count going back to the field to get the joke weapons). Skies' main issue is the battle system.

Now stay with me, but what if the enemy system from Grandia (where they're on the map and you can "surprise" them, and they can "surprise" you) were in Skies instead of the random battles that made going through the Temples (anywhere combat area really) a pain in the rear.

Clearly he was up all night making ChuChu Rocket puzzles

u/botte-la-botte Aug 22 '24

Dude was trying to find sailors in Shenmue for sure!

... but seriously being a football coach it was probably NFL 2K, when the Dreamcast came out those games were so much better than Madden on the first Playstation.

2

u/[deleted] Aug 22 '24

NFL Blitz and Ready 2 Rumble most likely.

2

u/SamHugz Aug 22 '24

Powerstone feels like a fever dream that I want to relive.

u/ModernHueMan Aug 21 '24

What you talking about. They already had a Skies of Arcadia remaster, it came out on gamecube. 🥲

3

u/Exact-Ad-4132 Aug 22 '24

The Dreamcast ports to GameCube were nearly identical, but they did fix some glitches and add some things to some games.

I wish that game had more unique or difficult ship battles. The endgame is kinda lame because all the basic ship encounters are way too easy

1

u/Arctiiq Aug 22 '24

Only thing that's keeping it from being truly great is the soundtrack being lower quality. But I hope we get a proper remaster with better textures and QoL options.

3

u/Karmachinery Aug 21 '24

Obviously they will need to create a Gaming Czar.

3

u/MaveDustaine Aug 22 '24

Sonic Adventure 3 is all I need in life! He's a Sega fan, come on Walz! Make it happen!

3

u/NotAGoodEmployeee Aug 22 '24

If he promises to fix EAs bullshit he has my vote. Give me a god damn battlefield game that isn’t COD lite and I will door to door for you sir.

2

u/Bionic_Bromando Aug 21 '24

He will legislate that Seaman 2 must be produced if Sega wants to keep selling in the US.

2

u/Sea-Neighborhood-621 Aug 21 '24

If I can get a chrono trigger remake I'll write his name into every box

2

u/Ekskwizit Aug 21 '24

I'd love a Phantasy Star Online Remaster, personally.

2

u/VernestB454 Aug 21 '24

Fuck that shit! MechAssault 3 Goddamn it!!!

2

u/jormugandr Aug 22 '24

Sega announced new entries in the Crazy Taxi, Jet Grind Radio and Golden Axe series back in December last year.

https://www.engadget.com/sega-is-resurrecting-its-classics-including-jet-set-radio-crazy-taxi-and-golden-axe-022041470.html

But, yeah, we should definitely have an HD remaster of SoA. And a sequel. Two sequels. At least.

2

u/fardough Aug 22 '24

Walz first official act as President is to ban micro transactions, saving single player AAA titles and saving children from gambling addictions. - My Wish

2

u/WeirdSysAdmin Aug 22 '24

I’m going to get Walz to force Phil Spencer to reboot MechAssault.

2

u/ShamelesDeviant Aug 22 '24

I want an executive order mandating Dead Space 2 Remake, Soul Reaver Remake and Dino Crisis Remake.

2

u/DistantStorm-X Aug 22 '24

🥺 Don’t do that… don’t give me hope…

2

u/raven00x Aug 22 '24

I was already going to vote for Harris, but if Walz makes remastering Skies of Arcadia part of the platform I might actually go knock on some doors for them.

2

u/Feralmedic Aug 22 '24

If Kamala is elected Tim will force her to sign an executive order to release Star Wars 1313.

2

u/Dillo64 Aug 22 '24

Graffiti becomes legal, Jet Set Radio IRL????

2

u/dragonguy01 Aug 22 '24

Legend of Dragoon finally getting the remake it deserves?

2

u/Randolph__ Aug 22 '24

That game might be exactly what what I'm looking for.

I really want a good game involving airships.

1

u/ElGato-TheCat Aug 21 '24

He can tell Bethesda to hurry the fuck up with the next Elder Scrolls game. Bethesda is like right there near his work.

u/3xstatechamp Aug 22 '24

I think what this means is—we might finally get a Bloodborne PC port😂
