Someone mentioned Crimson Skies. How it had high production values, entertaining gameplay, big marketing and it still flopped.
Well DUH!!!! Crimson Skies! WTF A World War I steampunk arcade sim? Even if Jesus himself came down on a cloud and told me that Crimson Skies is better than heaven, I still wouldnt play it.
Big cute propeller airplanes arent that cool. Tie Interceptors are cool. Put-put Zeppelins arent cool. That heavy-bomber that looks like phat rocket from WC3 is damn cool.
Man even if they put out a high-res edition of WC3 or WC4 that works on XP or Vista I would be first in line to buy it!
I have a nifty blue line!
