A racing game like Rock´n Roll Racing or a shooting game like Crusader No Remorse in Filmation. Even monochrome, they would be really cool!

I really like 'satan' by dinamic. A 'black tiger' game like, but it's too slow . Side b has a very interesting game, I mean the concept it's very interesting but b/w sucks for a certain games

There seems to be a lot of Computer Role Playing Games that are possible on the MSX home microcomputers:
CRPJ
If you take some notes, it is possible to find a lot of information on the Internet !!!

Line Rider!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

and Powdergame

I must second that! RnRR would be so cool on the MSX especially multiplayer ;p

"Jet Set Willy version" of Caverns of Titan, please!

As Caverns of Titan was Manic Miner clone, now please make futuristic Jet Set Willy clone with free entrance to surrounding screens.

all i want to see is just a brand new and original game. not ports, adaptations or anything like this.

Almost impossible ..

If you trace back the ideas and origins of just about any game you'll always end up with some game from the 80's that defined the genre.

Personally I prefer a quality game which may be not original than an original game which may be dull or otherwise not executed well. With that I mean: there have been oodles o' RPGs in MSX history with elves, orcs, dragons, queens, princesses, trolls, slimes/blobs, worms, magic etc. which would make any RPG in that medieval style not very original. But if you can make a good RPG in that style, by all means: do so!

I agree, or at least a similar game with new features. I won´t play games that I´ve already played on other systems. But I´d also like new games with old concepts. I´d not mind...

...a new shooter as good as Zanac or Kaleidoscope Special. We can´t play the same games forever.

...a racing game like Wec Le Mans, with height variation in the track (it´s quite easy to program it, trust me), but with more colors.

... a beat´em up like NES Battletoads. Flickering? Who cares if gameplay is good?

...puzzles like The Castle, Eggerland Mystery or Skooter. Time for more games like this.

My complain about new MSX games is still the same... I´ve seen games that ooze technology, like Malaika Prehistoric Quest and Lotus F3, and games that have excellent gameplay like Majikazo or Caos Begins. But I still wait for a games that mixes both groundbreaking technology and cool gameplay.

I do

The art of making MSX1 games is all about avoiding sprite flicker, if you ask me!

wolf_: well... sony says the same thing to nintendo at wii launch... and you can see the results nowadays. less mhz, more fun. isn't it sound familiar? the wii target is the family and casual gameplay, using the brand new wiimotion. i think the same idea(not the wiimotion) could be usefull to the msx. yes, we can have ports and etc, but original ones are missing here. in the case of they're no executed well, we can say to the programmer "keep going, the next one will be better. just not stop!".

man, the best "rpg" that i've played in the msx.... is rune master 2 and the last one(the one they call rune master 3) and the stylish pumpkin adventure 3. if i start making a rpg game, i would do everything possible to get it to be the closest thing to DIABLO, with DRAGON KNIGHT visuals(no, I am not referring to porn, ecchi, hentai, etc. just VISUAL QUALITY). a kind of game you can evolve into many levels your character with various classes and weapons. but it would have to have a specific study on the subject. this game could be possible too on the msx1 with abadia del crimen gfx. i am not a programmer. but if anyone want any comments or help in the design, call me any time.

it's a shame that the msx does not have a tactical rpg, like shinning force 2 or final fantasy tatics or even der langrisser. langrisser 1 and 2 could be easily ported to msx2 without flaws. maybe even shinning force 2 with loadtimes.

but again, this games are suggestion to ports. my opinions reffer to a new brand game.



LeandroCorreia: i can agree in most part with you.

DemonSeed: i'm very sorry, but i'm very very busy now, but i will not forget to answer your email. thx.

hey folks,

look here. I set a short list of what I think would be cool in the MSX:

PIXEL WARLORDS:

http://www.thepoppenkast.com/file.php?game=Pixel%20Warlords

-minimalist run'n'gun game running in 80x40 resolution.
if this could be ported to msx(the development of the pc original is still 15%),
and using a extreme rock'n'roll sound with cool sound effects in the msx mp3 cart
(or in the psg. i don't care. just the music needs to be somewhat that konami
rock soundtracks), AND YOU HAVE A WINNER.

ROM CHECK FAIL

http://www.farbs.org/games.html

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ys7NXKkI52E

the game ia all about a broken mame emulator that
mix and change sprites, music and gameplay every 5 or 10 seconds.
if this could be ported to the msx using msx game characters, music,
enemy and gameplay limitations, well done BECAUSE YOU HAVE ANOTHER WINNER.

this game uses only one static screen. and the heros and enemies limitations
of their games. very very funny. i think this could be very easily ported to the msx.
imagine knightmare, maze of galious, goonies, gall force, zanac, golvellius, randar,
nemesis, alfa roid, kaleidoscope special, hype, vampire killer, lolo, montana john,
whatever, in a game like this?

quote from the game: "YOUR PRINCESS IS IN A FASTER CASTLE"

MISSION EXTREME

(the video is somewhat slow. but ingame is far more quicker than this)

http://db.tigsource.com/games/mission-extreme

pixelated 2008 rambo. you got no better than this.
if this could be ported, i don't care if it would like msx2 contra with static
screens. the gameplay justify anything.

SEIKLUS

http://autofish.net/clysm/art/video_games/seiklus/index.html

now, a forgotten game that really begs for a port to the msx...
from 2003, this game was suposed to be only a test for
a game maker software and guess what...this game is
absurd. it's incredbly very very very good. it has some kind of
purity and charm, that makes no violence or appeal of most games from today.
it's completely open and wide. the music is excellent, and I believe that
with dedication, can be ported for the MSX without many losses. I would like to sincerely
see the VDPX running this game(a hint).
---
obviouslly they are all indie games.
there are a lot more, but i think these ones really make the thing.

I would like to know what you think about them.

viejo_archivero: the LIGHT CORRIDOR has the best & unmatched psg music in the msx. that's for me.
it's very very good, specially the second theme.

That ROM CHECK FAIL is truly hilarious!
Although it could have some more continued gameplay before flashing to the next failed ROM part.

now imagine this with msx sprites. that's the idea!
