SteveW Posted January 29, 2005 Share Posted January 29, 2005 I'd like to know how their upcoming game "Rent Wars" is going to play. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mock Posted January 29, 2005 Share Posted January 29, 2005 wonder why combat II is getting re-released and HH II isnt? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Cafeman Posted January 29, 2005 Share Posted January 29, 2005 It is always nice to see more 5200 support. Rent Wars looks like a fun concept! This is the first I've heard of it. I think the renamed rereleases concept is interesting. I would hope that rather than simple rereleases, Mean Hamster would tweak each game some way. A game author always leaves something out that he didn't have time for, or thinks of improvements after the game is "done". What do you all think? Would you rather have a renamed rerelease or a tweaked new game? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteveW Posted January 29, 2005 Share Posted January 29, 2005 Well, a tweaked new game would probably benefit the programmer, because people would be more likely to buy a game twice if the new version had some significant upgrades, rather than just a new label and splash screen. And better sales for the programmer means more cash to launch new projects. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
classics Posted January 29, 2005 Share Posted January 29, 2005 Rent Wars is a completed but previously unreleased title from First Star. I guess its Ok to talk about it since John has posted the information. It plays very will for two players and seems 100% complete to me. I'm not sure why First Star didnt release it earlier, it definatly would have sold well. Steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A game with the word RENT in it wouldn't have inspired me to rush out and buy it back in the day. Thats only speculation though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looking forward to the boulderdash games. Allan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atari Dogs Posted January 29, 2005 Share Posted January 29, 2005 Its great to have new games to purchase. If Haunted House II 3D and Combat 2 are rereleased under their new names I would think the title screens would have to be redone. A little extra work on the games probably would not be too much work then. Anyway, now I need a portable 5200. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+davidcalgary29 Posted January 31, 2005 Share Posted January 31, 2005 The First Star release of Bristles is excellent; I was very impressed with packaging and presentation. I'll definitely buy all of the upcoming releases, and I have to say that Rent Wars looks like it'll be a lot of fun. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
