[Audyssey] replay value, was:RE: audio game question
Hi ya, Personally, I think the multiplayer games out there offer the best replay value for obvious reasons. Sound RTS is hard to beat when playing other humans, especially some of the more well thought out maps. Entombed is going to be amazing as well, Jason has done a great job on this one, and I hope the audio game community supports his efforts when the game is released, we need more well thought out titles like this. And although I am of course biased, I think Rail Racer offers amazing replay value, given the career mode, multiplayer tournaments, and the ability to create and share your own tracks. I won't kid you, it takes practice to get good at it, but its very rewarding once you start getting the hang of it.

Re: [Audyssey] replay value, was:RE: audio game question
I'd actually agree, even about railracer ;D. As I said in my long woffle about game engines, any game which includes user created content has already great replay potential, and that goes for sound rts maps too. thankfully though developers are getting very good at this, so even a game intended as a fun arcade smasher like Q9 has the fun of random enemies to keep things interesting.

Re: [Audyssey] replay value, was:RE: audio game question
The interesting thing I've found with Rail Racer is that if I don't play it for weeks at a time, the next time I fire it up I have a truely horrible few runs while I get the knack back. It's got nothing to do with remembering controls or tracks, it's more like tuning back into the balance so you can do turns and jumps accurately without overthinking. That in itself adds replay value for me, because there's always a few awkward races when I first pick the game back up before I can crank up the music and really enjoy it. It's bizzarre, makes me feel like that gaming session was actually slightly productive. It might just be specific to me, since even at my best I'm not as good as I'd like to be, but it's something I've never seen from any other accessible title.
