Subject: I have not played Crimson... and yet I'm excited for it.

I was not lucky enough to go to PAX and try it out. But don't you all think it's funny that we even care? I mean, think about it.

Bungie is done with Halo. Yet we're all still here on this random forum for a game completely irrelevant to our past interests. The game isn't even made by Bungie. It's made by a third party using Aerospace. And yet... I'm excited to try this game. I can't help it- I want to support this for some reason. I think it's a neat project with a good goal. I'm sure Bungie is going to be profiting in SOME way (while it's cool, it would make little sense to have this program otherwise!), but I am not excited for this game just because it's Bungie.

I think the game, from what I've seen so far, genuinely looks interesting. It just happens to be on an odd platform and fairly simple, with Bungie giving it some publicity.


So the point of the thread which is completely not reflected in the title whatsoever: Do you folks find yourselves excited for this game? If so, why? Are you excited because Bungie's supporting it? You've never seen a game for these devices before yourselves? It just looks cool? You want to support a littler developer? Support the Aerospace Project for the future?

If you don't like it... why not? Are you sick of Bungie? Does the game look bad or it isn't your style (not too unlikely considering most of us came here because of First Person Shooters!)?

I'm genuinely curious as to the community's REASONING for their opinions... much moreso than the opinions themselves, really.

I got an Android a couple weeks ago so I lucked on on the timing!

It looks kinda fun, actually.

Bungie Aerospace is the ONLY reason why I'm interested, believe it or not.

Oh I believe it. I think that's what most people are thinking. And I will admit- it being part of Aerospace rather than just Bungie saying 'this is awesome' did definitely sway me some. But I really do think it looks neat enough on its own. So we'll see I suppose!

Thank goodness it isn't Ipad exclusive.
:D

I'm in the same boat.

I find myself supporting it for two reasons: I just recently got into games on my android and if Bungie's willing to put their name on the game, then I can't see it being very bad at all.

TU, I don't even know how to move a boat yet let alone how to move it so poorly that it'd end up on land.
XD
:P

And Rokit, nonono. See...

We're actually all controlling our own boats in this game.

And yeah you bring up a valid point. Bungie was supporting this not only as an Aerospace Project, but as the Aerospace LAUNCH Project. That's a big deal considering how they claim they're intended to make this program last for quite some time to come. So if they choose this for their opening title, surely it's got to be good. Or at least have something special and/or unique about it.

I wish I could try it out on a web based version at least, just to experience it as I don't have an iPad.

Well, when you eventually play it, just know...stay away from the shore.

What TU is trying to say is that alcohol gravely impairs your boat steering ability.

Now, in the quantum moment before the closure, when all become one. One moment left. One point of space and time.

I know who you are.

You are Destiny.

I hope Harebrained Schemes makes a build for the iPhone! They should seriously consider!
