anyone have any ideas about next years game?

[WhiteShadow1474]

I think the might do something non-sports based since they've sort of gone through all of the practical sport already... well at least the sports I can think of.[/quote]

we're bringing back the regolith and the robots are going to curl. I'm calling it

I LOVE the idea of dodge-ball.

I think he meant 2011 since the game would be coming out in 2011. (no sarcasm intended)

aw I am sorry, for some reason I thought that next year would be the 2010 game, my fault.


maybe some day I will learn to tell time!

(it is 2010 now, so next year's game will be 2010+1 )

Lol it's ok. sounds like you just had a brain fart. I do it all the time xD

I have a feeling the GDC wouldn't go for a remake of a previous game; Dean's too creative for that!

I would like the see a new field design though. Although the rectangular field has been very effective for previous games, it would be nice to have an "out-of-the-box" design!

Spirals and multi-dimensioned?

1) I would think the main reason the field is rectangular is because it is easy to work with, and allows for countless possibilities. Whilst a different shaped field would be interesting, I doubt it will be changed.

2) Elaborate on the spiral and multi-dimension idea. These sound interesting, but I'm having difficulty understanding what they are exactly. =/

Oh, I agree that is easy to work with, but wouldn't it be a nice challenge for the GDC?

Definitely an interesting idea I like the idea of multi-dimensional fields that would be a challenge. It would also require better communication skills. Ooo and maybe 4 team alliances and 3 minute matches instead of 2 *o*

I can see it now, rooster tails of corn kernals ... and exploding gearboxes as the kernals jam the gears

It's not a bad idea, team with the least balls on their side wins.
