User:Element Knight 375/Gaming Forum

Hello, visitors and members! My nickname is Element Knight 375, an avid fan of Game Ideas Wiki. I'm the writer of several pages, such as The Element Chronicles, Pixel Fighters, and Star Wars Battlefront III, and this Forum began when I communicated with senior members, such as Ouroburos,TheNewSaurian and Geniusguy445, regarding my work and whether I should join the wiki.

Geniusguy graciously extended a personal invitation to create an account and join the community, but I convinced him to let me stay anonymous from an official standpoint for security reasons. However, I provided a nickname, Element Knight 375, for them to address me by, and shortly afterward they gave me permission to establish this, a Discussion Page, for people to give their opinions on once-a-day questions through the extremely quick, extremely easy, and extremely informal process of editing. And even now, after creating an account, I continue to expand it, and you great contributors out there keep responding!

So here's how this works: for every day I visit the site, I will come on to this page, type that day's date, and post a question for that day, regarding everything from what game you would want made the most, from a good bout of "Who would win in a fight?". If you are intrigued by a question, just click "Edit Page" at the top next to the title, scroll down to the question you want to answer, start a paragraph, and then make up a nickname for yourself. This name can be on-the-spot or established, but you don't have to make an account. From there, you just write up your answer, hit publish, and then it's open to the public. If your answer is really good, then I, Element Knight, or some of the other contributors might respond to it. If you have a question you'd like me to ask, go to the bottom and post a comment telling me (also account-free). Are you ready? Here goes!

01/02/14: What is the one moment in video games that got you reduced to tears of sadness or happiness? 01/07/14: What's your favorite crossover game between two companies?
 * hmm.... In Final Fantasy VII, when Aerith died &#34;I&#39;ve got the magic in me...&#34; BlueSaga (talk) 08:22, January 5, 2014 (UTC)
 * I think it would be when Zack died in Crisis Core.  Mainly it was that music that played... "Who da man?" Element Knight 375 (talk) 07:57, February 23, 2014 (UTC)
 * It's a tie between Marvel vs Capcom and Street Fighter X Tekken. Wish there would be a Marvel vs DC though... &#34;You would not believe your eyes...&#34; BlueSaga (talk) 00:46, February 23, 2014 (UTC)
 * SSB. "Who da man?" Element Knight 375 (talk) 07:57, February 23, 2014 (UTC)

01/08/14: How many times would you lose in an almost impossible game before rage quitting?

01/09/14: If Kingdom Hearts had a complete remake, what Square Enix or Disney character do you think should be in it?
 * Princess Garnet of Final Fantasy IX and, umm... Wreck It Ralph? &#34;You would not believe your eyes...&#34; BlueSaga (talk) 00:46, February 23, 2014 (UTC)

01/11/14: What Pokemon game has your favorite music?
 * Kanto and Hoenn have my favorite Pokemon Music. Love the Pokemon March if your looking for specific favorites. &#34;You would not believe your eyes...&#34; BlueSaga (talk) 00:46, February 23, 2014 (UTC)
 * I adore the music from XY, like the rival battle theme.  Although, the gym leader battle theme from Gen 1 was pretty great. "Who da man?" Element Knight 375 (talk) 07:57, February 23, 2014 (UTC)

01/12/14: What two games do you think would make a great crossover?

01/13/14: If every game idea on this wiki were real, which one would you want the most?

01/14/14: If Nintendo, Square Enix, Capcom, or any other game company were on this wiki, what game do you think they'd develop? 01/15/14: Would you prefer an arsenal of weapons over tons of magic spells? 01/20/14: Should Google make its own game system?
 * I believe if Eutechnyx was to view my NASCAR Racing Series pages, they would consider adding some elements and maybe even bringing the most beloved NASCAR game series back. StrawDogAmerica (talk) 18:03, January 15, 2014 (UTC)
 * It's hard for me to actually imagine a company like Nintendo, Square, or Capcom developing a game for something other than money and fan loyalty, but if a smaller company like Sega or Ubisoft were to do an idea, I would expect something like a new Assassin's Creed, a new Sonic Riders, or a different game altogether that they developed alongside a smaller team. "Those wizards are crazy!" Element Knight 375 (talk) 09:45, January 16, 2014 (UTC)
 * That's a tough one. I think in my opinion i would prefer an arsenal of weapons. Bows, Crazy guns from Borderlands, Plasma cannons, Keyblades. Magic is great in games like Skyrim but other games don't sell it enough for me to give up my Keyblade for it. "Got It Memorized?" TheRealJonezy 16:31, January 16, 2014.
 * Certain weapons would be cool to have, but magic spells could do more and varied things, are instantly accessible, and aren't a hassle to carry around. "These wizards are crazy!" Element Knight 375 (talk) 07:28, January 17, 2014 (UTC)
 * Depends on a number of things. How big is the inventory for each? How much ammo/mana do you have? How easy to get more? What group does technology attacks fall under (Mass Effect)? I'd love both equally. Genius Guy #445  (talk)
 * No Genius Guy #445 (talk)  19:46, February 25, 2014 (UTC)
 * NOAP.  SO MUCH NOAP. "Who da man?" Element Knight 375 (talk) 09:45, February 26, 2014 (UTC)
 * For the record, Google is actually making a game console.

February
02/03/14: If they remade the Virtual Boy to make it have color, be in 3D, and have a longer cord, would you buy it?
 * Well, if there aren't headaches included, sure. BlueSaga (talk) 00:35, March 19, 2014 (UTC)

02/06/14: What is your favorite game that was made before 2005? 02/07/14: What older game series would you most like to see come back?
 * My personal favorite is the first game in the Star Wars Battlefront Series. "Ukrainian, but a manatee..." Ethandabomb (talk) 22:01, February 7, 2014 (UTC)
 * I would probably agree with that, but I'm also hugely into Jet Set Radio . I wish that series would come back. "These wizards are crazy!" ~
 * Well, if Ice Climbers had a HD remake with better mechanics, I'd tottaly play it. The Kanto Region of Pokemon would be awesomer if it had a 3D remake, with some new pokemon. A HD Bomberman and a HD Dig Dug. An HD remake of the original Samurai Warriors. A HD Sonic and Tails. And finally, Diddy Kong Racing in 3D. &#34;You would not believe your eyes...&#34; BlueSaga (talk) 00:46, February 23, 2014 (UTC)
 * I'm down with that, but I'd also like a return of the old Crash Bandicoot and the old Banjo-Kazooie. "Who da man?" Element Knight 375 (talk) 09:45, February 26, 2014 (UTC)

02/10/14: What game consumes the most of your time? 02/13/14: Which do you like better, 8-bit or 16-bit music? 02/15/14: Is there a game you want to have simply for the sake of having it, such as part of a collection?
 * 16-Bit, specifically Mega Man X, Super Mario World, and Sega Genesis (Especially Ristar and Sonic 2.)
 * I prefer 8-bit in most cases.  It's more catchy and less fuzzy in the ears.  Case in point, the 8-bit Zelda theme is way better than the 16-bit one in my opinion. "Who da man?" Element Knight 375 (talk) 09:45, February 26, 2014 (UTC)

02/21/14: What video game song has been stuck in your head most recently? 02/24/14: Have you ever hated a game before you loved it? 02/27/14: Which has better exclusives, Playstation or Xbox? 02/28/14: Who's your favorite character from a fighting game?
 * &lt;nowiki&gt;Ocean Palace Zone from Sonic Heroes.
 * This song of Little Big Planet that was changed in TearAway. Both are made by MM. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C_DF7V8bCl4 &#34;You would not believe your eyes...&#34; BlueSaga (talk) 00:33, February 23, 2014 (UTC)
 * I would like to take this opportunity to talk about a non-video game example. I bring to your attention Disney's Frozen as an acceptable alternative for soundtrack comparison. Everyone needs to see it. Thank you, that is all. Genius Guy #445  (talk)
 * There's a mashup of Honeycomb Highway (Sonic Lost World) and various songs from JSR and Sonic Rush that is constantly stuck in my head somehow. "Who da man?" Element Knight 375 (talk) 07:57, February 23, 2014 (UTC)
 * If it ever gets to the point of hating a game, I usually stop playing. Genius Guy #445 (talk)  19:46, February 25, 2014 (UTC)
 * I don't know if I've exactly hated a game before loving it; I know my dad has, but not me so much.  I guess if I had to pick something, it would be Sly Cooper and the Thievius Raccoonus, simply because it was so different from the other two. "Who da man?" Element Knight 375 (talk) 09:45, February 26, 2014 (UTC)
 * To be honest, Call of Duty 2 and 3. BlueSaga (talk) 02:43, March 8, 2014 (UTC)
 * I was waiting for someone to say that. Element Knight 375 (talk) 04:50, March 8, 2014 (UTC)
 * Mega Man 2Kfcnyancat (talk) 01:13, March 16, 2014 (UTC)
 * This is a question i've been wondering for a few years now. As an avid Xbox gamer, I must say Xbox has some great exclusives like Titanfall and Gears Of War. However, Playstation has some amazing exclusives over on their side with The Last Of Us, inFamous, Uncharted and lots more. So I think for me it has to be PlayStation. "Make love, not Console Wars" TheRealJonezy 13:20, February 28, 2014 (UTC)
 * I agree with PlayStation.  Xbox has some cool exclusived, but the only one I really enjoy is Super Meat Boy, whereas PlayStation has Crash Bandicoot, Sly Cooper, Spyro the Dragon, and more. "Who da man?" Element Knight 375 (talk) 07:52, March 1, 2014 (UTC)
 * Well, there's a whole damn lot to choose from. For me it either has to be Smoke or Noob Saibot from Mortal Kombat 9 specifically or maybe Green Arrow from Injustice if that counts. "Where there is smoke, there's fire!" TheRealJonezy 16:53 March 1, 2014 (UTC)
 * Counting SSB, I'd say Link or Sonic.  If we're talking a fighting gamer's fighting game, I like Ryu or Ken from Street Fighter and Liu Kang. "Who da man?" Element Knight 375 (talk) 18:47, March 1, 2014 (UTC)
 * Ling Xiaoyu and Marshal Law from Tekken and Toon Link of SSBB. Not to mention Phoenix Wright from Ultimate Marvel vs Capcom 3. And in Playstation All Stars, Sackboy or Parappa the Rapper. BlueSaga (talk) 02:43, March 8, 2014 (UTC)

03/01/14: What's your favorite idea on the wiki other than one of your own?
 * I really like the Indestructible Death Suit page. It's simple, sharp, and above all well written. User:Dancefighter
 * That page was absolutely well-crafted.  I also liked Salvation a lot even with all the changes it underwent, and I'm a big fan of the classic Nintendo Kart.  I'm pretty jealous of that one. "Who da man?" Element Knight 375 (talk) 08:28, March 4, 2014 (UTC)
 * Indestructible Death Suit was indeed well-crafted. Salvation is awesome too. Nintendo Kart is also pretty good in a Nintendo-fan-list-all-the-characters way. User:Dancefighter
 * I think mine probably had to be Iron Wolf just because of the sheer epicality of the cover art, how well it was described and all those good stuffs. "Got It Memorized?" TheRealJonezy 21:38 March 5, 2014
 * Nintendo Party was one of my favorites, and one of the first pages I saw when i joind this wiki. Actually, since making my account, this was one of the first pages I saw on any Wiki. But, a close second would be Element Chronicles. BlueSaga (talk) 02:43, March 8, 2014 (UTC)
 * You are awesome.  Let me just say that right now. :D Element Knight 375 (talk) 04:50, March 8, 2014 (UTC)

03/02/14: What's your favorite PC indie game?
 * Probably Game Dev Tycoon. I think we all know why considering the nature of this wiki. By the way, has anyone else played it? If not, I thoroughly recommend it.  TheRealJonezy 21:39 March 5, 2014
 * I played it bro, I felt it was really medicore. I mean it was funny how your Sci-fi RPG game "Tank-nado" would get really awesome review scores, but it felt more like a small flash game than anything else. User:Dancefighter
 * Game corp all the way! I mean, managing a video game company? Come on!!! BlueSaga (talk) 02:43, March 8, 2014 (UTC)
 * Game Dev Tycoon is actually pretty cool.  Never played it, but I've seen a lot of it.  I'm not at all a PC game kind of guy, but I gotta say, Nidhogg and One Finger Death Punch look epic. "Who da man?" Element Knight 375 (talk) 04:50, March 8, 2014 (UTC)

03/03/14: What's your most anticipated game of 2014? 03/05/14: What's your favorite Batman game?
 * For me it'd be either Metal Gear Solid V: Ground Zeroes or Watchdogs. Watchdogs just looks too good to be true, and with Metal Gear (it's kinda dumb how they split the game into two parts)...well let's just say Kojima is known for making the impossible possible. User:Dancefighter
 * I'm gonna have to go with either the new Mario Kart or the new Smash Bros.  I've always been a Nintendo guy.  Although, Hideo freaking Kojima will probably come out with another masterpiece as USUAL. "Who da man?" Element Knight 375 (talk) 10:24, March 5, 2014 (UTC)
 * So many... South Park: The Stick Of Truth, The Evil Inside, Batman: Arkham Knight, Super SmaSh Bros Wii U. I CAN'T DECIDE! TheRealJonezy 21:41 March 5, 2014
 * Dude, Arkham Knight looks awesome! Even more since Rocksteady is behind it. Also Element Knight Kojima is a master piece (a Metal Gear game that actually feels modern and not overly tedious!!! Joking aside MGS V is going to be the Game to own). User:Dancefighter
 * Kojima is decidedly brilliant.  And it sounds nice that Rocksteady is heading up another Batman.  They seem to get it very right. "Who da man?" Element Knight 375 (talk) 06:38, March 6, 2014 (UTC)
 * I am personally really excited for The Stick of Truth or Super Smash Bros. But since Stick of Truth is already out I'll have to go with Samsh Bros. ~CrazieDave
 * Freedom Planet! It's like Sonic, but it's not like Sonic! Kfcnyancat (talk) 01:13, March 16, 2014 (UTC)
 * Arkham Asylum, given I've never played any other. Genius Guy #445 (talk)  19:33, March 19, 2014 (UTC)
 * Arkham City all the way. "Who da man?" Element Knight 375 (talk) 04:35, March 20, 2014 (UTC)

03/06/14: Would you like to see another game done in the style of Chivalry: Medieval Warfare?
 * Totally. A Deadliest Warrior game in this style would be AWESOME. "Ukrainian, but a manatee..." Ethandabomb (talk) 01:20, March 9, 2014 (UTC)
 * That already exists, bro.  I'd personally like to see a Lord of the Rings game like Chivalry.  Up-close and personal swordplay against the background of the LOTR soundtrack would be too good to describe. "Who da man?" Element Knight 375 (talk) 08:50, March 13, 2014 (UTC)

03/07/14: What's your favorite new game that you've played in the last six months? 03/12/14: What's your favorite game from childhood?
 * One of my favorites has got to be Tomb Raider: Definitive Edition which I acquired a couple weeks ago for the PS4. "Ukrainian, but a manatee..." Ethandabomb (talk) 01:20, March 9, 2014 (UTC)
 * Dust: An Elysian Tail was kinda fun, but I more enjoy Jet Set Radio.  It had amazing atmosphere, interesting gameplay, and my favorite soundtrack of any game.  I can't believe a new one hasn't been made in over a decade. "Who da man?" Element Knight 375 (talk) 08:50, March 13, 2014 (UTC)
 * Well, the newest game I've got is Little Big Planet Karting. I'm sure it's be better if I didn't lose the online pass though.... BlueSaga (talk) 06:42, March 15, 2014 (UTC)
 * Mine would have to be either Pokemon X, Super Mario 3D World, Fire Emblem: Awakening or Animal Crossing New Leaf... I haven't checked my town for about a week now... I'll be right back!
 * I played not even the first level of Mass Effect 2, but I'm kinda excited about it now. (haven't played the first one) Genius Guy #445 (talk)  19:33, March 19, 2014 (UTC)
 * Hmn... I guess it would have to be either Splinter Cell Chaos Theory or Out of This World. While both appear outdated today, back then, I invested an incredible amount of time playing and learning all the in's and out's of the two games. User:Dancefighter
 * I'd go with Final Fantasy IX or Mario Party 1. They were both amazing and I still have them in my top 10 list of video games. BlueSaga (talk) 06:42, March 15, 2014 (UTC)
 * Scratch that, The Sims 1 was my favorite game in my childhood. BlueSaga (talk) 00:35, March 19, 2014 (UTC)
 * I played a lot of movie and cartoon games when I was little, but my favorite ones were always GoldenEye 007, Super Mario World, and Oddworld.  Their flashiness and colors always attracted me, and the latter two are still some of my favorite games. "Who da man?" Element Knight 375 (talk) 08:32, March 15, 2014 (UTC)
 * I remember Oddworld, the first was good (dark, disturbing, yet lighthearted plot), the second was meh (really linear not as cute or charming). And Oddworld: Stranger's Wrath was one of my favorite games on the original Xbox. User:Dancefighter
 * I agree with everything you said, but I actually feel like the second one was less linear than the first one. "Who da man?" Element Knight 375 (talk) 04:35, March 20, 2014 (UTC)
 * The second just felt like a let down compared to the first and all the hype. User:Dancefighter

03/13/14:  If you were able to, what video game ideas would you like to become true? 03/14/14: Who's your favorite character in any RPG? 03/19/14: What one game mechanic that you feel game developers just can't get right? 03/20/14: Is there a series you normally like that has gone in a bad direction recently?
 * An idea that's not my own? Hmn, I guess it'd be Indestructible Death Suit. If it was one of my video game ideas (I only have one on here) Echoes: Operation Stranglehold. User:Dancefighter
 * (Answering my own question but well) I would love to see Nintendo Party alive, I mean, why has this not been done yet? And a game idea of my own would be the unique and in-depelovement Dim. Admin: The Locked Dimension User: IsGamer13
 * This is a hard one. I would have to say Element Chronicles or Nintendo Party. Nintendo Party, I mean come on! Next step after Mario Party! And Element Chronicles? Pfft. Who doesn't wanna see that? BlueSaga (talk) 06:42, March 15, 2014 (UTC)
 * If I had to go with one of my own, I'd go with The Element Chronicles (or maybe Nintendo Party), but if I were to pick someone else's, I'd either go with Indestructible Death Suit or Salvation. "Who da man?" Element Knight 375 (talk) 08:32, March 15, 2014 (UTC)
 * My own ideas: Sonic the Hedgehog: Equestrian Adventure, The Yoshi Project: Super Mario World 3 , and Brawl: The MS-Paint Hack . Others' ideas: The Legend of Paper Zelda, Pixel Fighters , and Link in Space. Kfcnyancat (talk) 01:11, March 16, 2014 (UTC)
 * Finally someone said Pixel Fighters. Element Knight 375 (talk) 04:35, March 20, 2014 (UTC)
 * Hmm... prepare for a  list: Mario & Luigi, Zero (Alpha & Beta), Marth, Dust, Red, Bishop. As for a fangame... it would be my character (Dim. Admin in it's respective game) and the nameless character (where is the name?) from Element Chronicles (love the idea btw) User: IsGamer13
 * I personally like Luigi in the Mario and Luigi games, Mudkip and his evolutionary family and the 'My Unit' character in Fire Emblem: Awakening. But my favourite would have to be Mudkip. Thanks to BlueSaga for reminding me of my favorite SSBB character, Ike ~CrazieDave
 * Quite a few. There is Blue and Prof. Oak from Pokemon. Wakka, Auron, Rikku, and Garnet from Final Fantasy. Lyn and Ike from Fire Emblem. Finally, I'd say Phoenix Wright and Apollo Justice from Ace Attorney. BlueSaga (talk) 02:47, March 16, 2014 (UTC)
 * Luigi/Everyone in the Paper Mario rpgs, Fredrick/Joshua (Fire Emblem). Genius Guy #445 (talk)  19:33, March 19, 2014 (UTC)
 * I like Frederick and Alm from Fire Emblem, Sheogorath and J'zargo from The Elder Scrolls, Fidget from Dust, and if we're counting Pokemon, Aegislash and Charizard. "Who da man?" Element Knight 375 (talk) 04:35, March 20, 2014 (UTC)
 * Um, swimming. Especially looking at the Mario series. -_- -_- -_- Genius Guy #445 (talk)  19:33, March 19, 2014 (UTC)
 * Horses and bikes.  For God's sake. "Who da man?" Element Knight 375 (talk) 04:35, March 20, 2014 (UTC)
 * Laser Guns. They never have the same "OOMPH" of non-laser guns and are often clones of Machine Guns. Kfcnyancat (talk) 22:32, March 20, 2014 (UTC)
 * Everything in Ice Climbers and character flight. Cure! Dia! Poisona! (talk) 22:45, March 21, 2014 (UTC)
 * That's pretty reasonable. Element Knight 375 (talk) 06:06, March 22, 2014 (UTC)
 * Hmn, I'd say free-roaming. Developers tend to hamfist a lot of dumb collectibles to drive 'free roaming' (usually they don't do anything) placed in dumb places no one in their right mind would actually 'explore' in real life. It tends to give a sort of empty facade over boring places that all look the same. User:Dancefighter
 * I know.  Spider-Man 2 for PS2 hid secret tokens in ridiculous places to make you search around like an idiot.  That kind of thing doesn't add replay value, it just annoys people. "Who da man?" Element Knight 375 (talk) 05:39, March 24, 2014 (UTC)
 * I would have to say Splinter Cell or Final Fantasy. Splinter Cell is more of a hollywood B-movie than a believable stealth game like it used to be. Final Fantasy...those games played themselves. User:Dancefighter
 * I've never played Final Fantasy, but I really admire it, and I agree it's depressing how dumbed down it's gotten.  I think Super Mario has stuck with too many templates like Goombas, Bob-Ombs, Koopas, and other stuff as opposed to creating new things.  I feel like Sonic the Hedgehog is off its game a little bit too (although hopefully Sonic Boom is good). "Who da man?" Element Knight 375 (talk) 05:39, March 24, 2014 (UTC)

03/21/14: If you could meet anyone in the gaming industry (YouTuber, developer, composer, whatever), who would it be? 03/23/14: What game that you really enjoyed has a special place in your heart?
 * Hmn, guess Cliff Bleszinski. Always admired the Gears of War games. Though I disagree with some of his views. User:Dancefighter
 * I'd love to meet Caddicarus.  He's funny and awesome and he knows a lot about what makes a good game.  I'd also like to meet Hideki Naganuma (composer for Sonic Rush, Ollie King, and JSR), Jason Griffith (voice of Sonic the Hedgehog and Cilan from Pokemon) and Lorne Lanning (co-creator of Oddworld).
