ok then, one of my friends has made a game for his 360 that he calls starcraft eras, dont ask me how he did it, i truly dont know. but the end result is fine. the graphics are about halo2 ish. you choose your race and then you work your way up the ranks of your kind. say you pick zerg, you start off a zergling, you kill stuff and die, you respawn and repeat, then you can command a group of ling up to 10 at first (20,40,60) or move up to hydra.
it is awesome, he has made 4 cds so we can lan battle.
its like a rpg/rts/fps all in one. due to some copyright thing we are keeping things lowprofile but i am trying for a pic. he also plans for a warcraft one like it, and is avoiding making it like WoW.
oh, and he is hard core, he made a fiberglass replica of a zealots armor with these fancy blades and face mask, it is truly amazing. i am getting a pic of this to, but he is paraniod.
Would you people turn him in for breaking the copyright law things??
EDITED- about next month around the fifteenth he is gonna let me post some links about it.
we have finished debuging it, man it has a steep learning curve but when you know what you ar doing it is awesome. he just finished the line of sight generater and it is fun. in starcraft 3 ling vs a zealot and the zealot wins but in this if you burrow under then wait for his back to be to you attack and you win.
unfortunatly you cannot sneak up on air units, they have scanners (not detecters those units have better visibility)
he is planning to send a finished version to blizzard, and see what they think.
and for you people who do not have 360's and have ps3, he is seeing about converting it to a wii compatible version.
Well its finished, ps3, 360, wii, and computer versions have been made. it runs the smoothest on ps3 and the 360, and really well on the comp. unfortunatly the wii version is kinda screwy. the demo copy came back from blizzard with a letter, basicly "we like it and appreciate you entuisiasm in our game, but this is not something we will produce."
LMAO they thought he was submitting an idea for them to use!!!
10 copies for computer, 4 for 360 and 4 for ps3, 2 for wii. This game is the holy grail of games, it makes gears of war and lost planet look childish.
Once i have a better connection i am uploading gameplay movies to youtube. i doubt i can do more then that until we get some sorta rights, all we need is the commercial rights to use their starcraft material in a game, we arent even using the hereos so the rights will actaully be cheaper we hope.
oh and a story tidbit.
basicly as that dugall guy came to the new galaxy, the protoss tracked their trajectory and sent probes back. 10 years after brood war the rebuilt protoss army goes to the terren galaxy and make a forward base. the terrans do not notice this, but the do notice that their outer colonies are falling to some kind of organic force (cough zerg cough). the terra is now under assault from this new force, and the protoss are cought off guard. it seem the overmind had sent a few of its kind into some sort of worm hole before its destruction.
Their are new units (currently unnamed) such as the terran bombers, zergling zealot and dark templar combinations, the protoss worldships (upgraded version of the nexus, can lift off, carries 5 intercepters and gun equal to a battle ship, extremly slow and expensive, 1 per army)
and new defenses, the terren watch tower (3 units per, has big field of ision and units in it can shoot further) and some othe new nasties.
this game is like starcraft brood war and battlefield 2, you can command your troops like you do in star craft or your can jump in as one of our new heroe units.
FYI it is scary sh!t to have a zergling pop out of the ground in front of you or suddenly a dark templar appear in front of you.
oh and if you can't figure it out, i love terran.
