Video Game Maps?

Postby Theguyoverthere on Mon Dec 03, 2007 2:57 am

Anyone ever thought of doing a video game, or console, maps? I thought it would be a neat idea, you could have it be by developers that belong to certain companies and then a "third party" continent, or by consoles that belong to certain companies. I drew up a quick map of what a "Console Wars" would be like. You think something like this could work?

there'll be ways around that...
-(wii=wee)
-X-box and gamecube = x-cube and gamebox
-Nintendo 64 =Nintendo 46
-Genesis=Exodus (or something else biblical like that)
et. cetera
It could definitely see it happening.

Right, keeping nintendo and changing the numbers around, that won't tick nintendo off at all. :roll:

Do you have any better ideas?
I think this map would work great if we could just get some people to work on the name thing.

Ya, he kinda did that backwards... Besides, the 64 is legendary! You gotta keep the 64! Go with something like "Limblendo 64" or a different, less lame variation.

Either way this is not that good an idea as far as I'm concerned.

It could work, but you need some theme for the graphics. The background definitely should not be neutral.

My gods, someone gauge out my eyes. I sure hope this so called 'map' is a joke.

I mgoing to step in and say that there is no way this map could make it through the foundry.

1. Copyright would have a feild day

2. Randomly grouping and connecting produces is not a good theme and does not create good gameplay.
What do you know about map making, bitch?

Especially without a sperm donation room.

I'm sorry but this topic as it is right now. We can't take it seriously. I'm locking this down, someone needs to start all over if they want it.
