Excellence Never Goes Out of Date

That title is taken from one of the Escapist magazine article.

And frankly, i found myself quite agree with that.

Shigeru miyamoto said that a delayed game is eventually good, a bad game is bad forever. True what is good will always good and in gaming perhaps the aspects that can be immortalized is either sound,art direction,gameplay or story.


Last week i played System Shock and this game still creep the hell out of me even if it came about 14 years ago!

The same goes with Gabriel Knight: The Sins of the Fathers which its engrossing story kept me awake for hours a month ago.-This game's story is still the best of game's story even compared to today standard-

This is some examples of how game doesnt need to be judge by current technology alone (graphic wise) which many gamers today considered upon.

And this is not only applicable to gaming alone but to literature(Death Train,A Catcher in the Rye),Movie(Casablanca),Music(Frank Sinatra,Claire) and other kind of entertainment.

A good game is a good game and a bad game eventually be a bad game.

Excellence truly never goes out of date.

-Curently playing Final Fantasy XII and believe that this game will have the same fate as the game mentioned before

Next Project: Finish System Shock

While i recently have been talking about how great Looking Glass Studio's personel and game are.

I become interested on actually finishing one of their greatest game:

System Shock!

-using portable version from strangebedfellows of course-

In my opinion this is the best shock of them all including System SHock 2 and Bioshock.
So...

Wish me luck

The Legacy of Looking Glass

I truly believe on those creative person behind Looking Glass Studios.
They are creative persons who strive to deliver the most unique experience on gaming but sadly overthrown by the market.

There are several game they/their ex member made that i liked:

1.Deus Ex-the god/ultimate emergent gameplay example

2.System Shock

3.Guitar Hero

4. Half-Life 2

5. Ultima 7

Just by looking those examples, im pretty sure you get the ideas of what those people capable of.
Anyway enjoy the next link containing articles of them/their games:
