Rockstar boss Dan Houser has expressed his interest in pursuing a science fiction based game, if they have a good reason to do so. Houser said that the team at Rockstar have no interest in going into science fiction for the sake of flying cars and laser guns. He then went on to elaborate that the best science fiction stories are those that speak about the human condition. Here’s what Houser had to say.
“We will do it the very second we have an idea. One of our strengths is the consistency of the game world. We’re not necessarily the best writers in the world, but we how to write a video game.
“When we decided to make a Western, it was because we knew we had something to say,” he went on. “We have no interest in going into science fiction for the sake of flying cars and laser guns. The best science fiction stories are those that speak about the human condition. So while this idea is very tempting and, by definition, anything’s possible in a videogame, we lack the essential thing for the moment: a good reason.”
And this is Nintendo news… How?
Because there are Rockstar games on Nintendo systems
There is? (Apart from Chinatown Wars.)
Manhunt and bully.
It’s not but its still interesting
There ara many R* games on Nintendo platforms (chinatown wars, bully, manhunt, body harvest, lemmings 2, uniracers, GTA 1, …. plus, GTA V is still not confirmed for PC and WIi U…. its under “consideration”.
DMA Design was renamed to Rocsktar North….
THATS WHY!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Time will tell, but I think they could do a pretty good job on this. I guess they’re bored with the same GTA. Well, with story its hard to be original anymore, especially in Sci-Fi.
Anyone know why the Sci Fi channel changed to ‘SyFy’? I call it ‘siffy’, it looks ridiculous.
A stupid sci-fi X gta style game sounds good to me.
Lets high jack some saucers and take some hookers to the deathstar.
I don’t see why this should be in a nintendo site since third party game publishers are not supporting the wiiu. Third party support on the wiiu is an oxymoron. It just doesn’t make sense. The system is way under powered and they make no money nice your drones only buy Nintendo developed and or published titles. If
Shut the fuck up, you troll! Nintendo’s games are the best! We don’t need third party games!
We do and we’re getting some , Rayman Legends , Lego City undercover , Wonderfull 101 , Bayonetta 2 , Aliens colonial marines Monster Hunter Ultimate and so forth.
I would rather get third party exclusives than shit multiplats.
Alien Colonial Marines is mulitplat …
Yeh but still , Im sure a lot of Wiiu owners are anticipating it because of the Scanner…
I don’t see why you should be on this site since you’re a fucking nasty bitch who doesn’t like Nintendo
*Swoosh*
Because Chinatown wars didn’t sell more than the The iOS and PSP versions… oh wait!
Isn’t it funny that these Nintensheep are in complete denial? They’ll support a pos system with laughable PS1 graphics, a shitty controller, and no third party support. They seem to not understand how pathetic the Wii U is.
~THE REAL Bill~
You forgot to say that you’re so manly that you love cocks in your ass while you sit, that’s why you always blush with a smile of lust on your face whenever you sit.
Who do you think you are talking to, retard? I am not that Cody Mercer Sly Cooper Fucker.
~THE REAL Bill~
Considering you have no life like that Cody Mercer Sly Cooper guy, you probably are Bill.
Shut up troll!
Why do you waste your time and life coming to a nintendo site if you don’t like nintendo?
What baffles me more is you take your time to post a comment to a nintendo site??
I’m not a sheep! I can speak!
Shut up troll!
I say gor for it.
I like the idea! Grand Theft Space Ship!
Grand theft death star!
Bill, go suck Bill Gates’ Microshit cock and put it where it belongs.
Cool. Good to know what devs are thinking.
Who cares? Take Two hates
Why give these two idiots the time of day? It’s rather obvious that they get beat up pretty much every week and can only ‘get even’ by being a turd on the internet.
People calling one another names over video game preference. The Irony. HA! HA! HA!
Rockstar has made games about neo-noir LA and the Old West
I would love to see this
FAGGOTS!
?
I guess all the trolls have so much time on their hands coming here talking absolut nonsense most of the time cause they are all bored with their ancient systems and software, whereas we have something new and exciting worth talking about.
Is it me, or is was my brain thinking of the exact same idea years ago that Rockstar is thinking of right now? o_o i had an idea for a futuristic dystopian sci-fi story, but this is just nuts. (still has idea)
