Name That Game: 2012 Edition

Recommended Posts

Kind of fits but mostly doesn't lol

It's kind of correct, but mostly it's not. :p

 

 

It's not Star Trek, either, but the game is based on a universe that existed before the game was made.

Is this a game you've invented and you're the only one that's played it?

I played it in a dream once. :sad:

 

Here's one final hint:

 

34. The name of the game starts with a D and ends with une II: Battle for Arrakis.

Sorry, Coolness. You're close, though! :sad:

 

Final final hint: the game is not set in a hospital.

God, Jonnas. Don't scare me like that. I thought someone had already guessed Dune 2 and I'd missed it somehow. That would have been so embarrassing. :p

 

Anyway, gaming history time! Dune II is actually not a sequel to the first Dune game. From this interview:

 

Alper’s comments to Sperry had been made with the understanding that work by French developer Cryo on a Dune-themed adventure/strategy hybrid had already been cancelled. As Sperry later found out, however, Cryo hadn’t taken no for an answer. “They rushed to finish their game before ours,” he reveals. “The result was a branding nightmare – the Cryo game had nothing to do with ours and yet it was published first because Virgin was anxious for the revenue. Against my violent protests our game was called Dune II: The Building Of A Dynasty [battle For Arrakis in Europe and for the Mega Drive version] and the rest is history.”

 

So that's where the 2 comes from! :smile:

Grr...I was misled by the internets, then! (Wikipedia wasn't the only site I checked)

 

But you still lied: there is no "2" in the title, only a "II"! [/hissy fit]

 

So, does this make the first time that nobody actually managed to guess a picture correctly?

Dog-amoto said he had a new round ready, so you should probably wait until he's posted his.

 

Or you could post a round now and make him wait even longer. I don't care. :heh:
