I like your passion for 'War Gaming'. I think the closest recent release, would be something along the lines of Supreme Commander 1 (not 2, oh god, not 2.)

But they are really just Real Time Strategy, or Turn Based Strategy games, depending.
Nah, recent releases in the genre he talks about are games like these:
War Plan Pacific
War in the East


The first descriptor of War Plan Pacific is

Turn based grand strategy

unless you weren't arguing that they're RTS/TBS, just that those are better examples

This is indeed true, but that doesn't stop the simple fact that most people pay attention to Sub-genres in general.


Please provide citations for this "fact"

I will accept even one single link to a piece of writing espousing this opinion as fact

Previously Successful IPs and how to Revive Them.

Ogre Battle, where is the RTS army of mermaids and gryphons at?!

Or the TBS. Since half the series is RTS, half is TBS. :B

Oh sorry, I said RTS. I meant TBS.

The only difference I'm seeing between a Wargame and any other TBS is the bit about "historical accuracy."

Yes. #1 critique for ALL map designers out there: nature doesn't like straight lines.

Please describe Innovation in the FPS point of view as applied to another genre.
fixed for you
Sorry, but FPS is considered a GENRE by pretty much EVERYONE including reviewers at official companies.


This isn't my argument, I'm simply agreeing with the very well-thought out and articulate explanation from earlier in the thread.

Although I guess this isn't your argument too, as you're simply agreeing with reviewers at official companies. (This is the same as listening to a film critic because their opinion is 'official')

yeah actually look at that car. automobiles have been fundamentally the same for at least 50 years. what you're looking at are aesthetic changes
And you don't see how this applies to game genres? hmmmmmmm

do you think the engine in that car is the exact same engine as a modern car has? that's not an aesthetic change y'all
FUNDAMENTALLY the same. yeah, stuff's been streamlined and improved upon, but a hell of a lot of the same types of parts go into that engine you're talking about.
