At around this time of year I look into my highly revered and invaluable crystal ball of gaming, to see what the forthcoming year offers us. I wil now consult it and share my findings with you as they appear.


Let's see now, the mists are dense in the crystal ball, I can't see much at the moment....ah..yes, the fog is parting a little. The first title I see is......

Driver: The Last Revelation
An epic and moving tale of a red sports car who has lost his driver. You will travel the globe, battling off evil taxies and london buses as you complete a series of bizzare puzzles and quests such as 'Wing mirror madness' and 'spot the green light'. In an unexpected twist you fall in love with a sexy fire engine, and later, in a dramatic and tense level have to rescue her from the junkyard before she falls prey to the fearsome Car crusher.

Worms Victorius
A re-release of Worms World Party, but adds another weapon, the triple-megatastic-super-whopper bopper, so that it has the right to call it a sequel.

Metal Gear Solid 3 XXX. This is an innovative blend of both the traditional action/stealth formula and also much gratitous nakedness. You play the part of porn star Stud Snake in his leopard-skin action tights who has to battle and sneak his way through many levels of topless chicks and bathing beauties before the ultimate showdown with Queen Breasticle herself. On the stealth side you now have boob detectors that will warn you of any incoming breasts in advance. This looks to be a major hit, especially with the ELSPA standards dropping, meaning that this game will be rated a 12a.

Nail Biter 3D
A highly detailed and realistic simulation of the workplace. You can choose from a variety of jobs, trolley-pusher, receptionist, secretary, or author, and in each of these fields you have to have to work your way upwards through long years of hard work. Special features include nails to bite when things get hectic, 100,000 pieces of paper to read through, and real-time action, meaning that 5 hours in-game takes 5 hours to play. Longevity is a bonus as the game will take at least 16 years to complete. So why go to work when you can undergo the stress and tediousness all from the comfort of your armchair.

The crystal ball of gaming is clouding over a bit now, but isn't it exciting to learn about the wonderful and intriguing games of the new year. I also caught a few glimpses of titles like Home gardener, and Weight Watchers deluxe edition; I just can't wait. Here's to the new year!!

It's a very obvious subject, one that's certainly been used a fair bit in the few years SR has been up. Seemed nice enough, though.

He means the concept has been done before, this probably means you will get a GAD for it, as I made a post and someone who copied my idea and some of my examples got GAD for it. *sighs*
