I'd like to see another GUN GRIFFON game that goes back to the awesomeness of #1 and #2 on the Saturn, because "GG Blaze" on the PS2 at launch time sucked donkey balls x 10. ---All that was good about the first two went out the window, thus I know GAME ARTS could return to their roots and make a kick ass G.G. game. ---but that's just me.

Man, I LOVE Blue Stinger. I don't care what the RE fanbois snobs say about it, it was a fucking good time. Loved the scene in the market with the Christmas music and the bizarre mutants, loved Dogs' Karate T-shirt, loved buying weapons and food from the vending machine...it was a VERY Japanese game, and had a much better action feel to it than most of the RE clones. I'll always wish there'd been a sequel to it, unfortunately that'll never happen since the game's designer passed away and the old Climax (which turned into Crazy Games) is no more.

There's no sequel I want more than Pilot Wings. On SNES, it owned me. I played for hours.
On the N64, I knew it wasn't that great compared to what could have been, and yet I played that shit for HOURS. I can't tell you how many hours of my life are gone thanks to Cresent Island while it's cloudy while flying as a bird man. I think that game was great, and am dying for a new one.
Is there really a new one in the works? I heard, about a year ago, that one was coming out. Well, wish I had some proof. I would buy it in a heartbeat.

Pilot Wings for N5 by Factor 5?
First Reported by: IGNcube
Date Started: April 30, 2003
Status: Unknown
The writers over at IGNcube started this little rumor back in April 2003. At the time, they reported that the title was heading to the GameCube and being developed by none other than Factor 5, famed developer of Rogue Leader, and not EAD. It wasn’t until a few weeks later, in May, that they claimed that they were able to confirm this information, but neither Nintendo nor Factor 5 ever officially announced it.
Now, IGNcube has updated readers by informing them in their October 14, 2003 mailbag that Pilot Wings has been moved over to the GameCube’s successor. If this turns out to be true, then Factor 5 will have a good 3-4 year head start on development of the game for the new hardware. Considering that Rebel Strike only took 2 years to complete, gamers should expect very impressive visuals and game play mechanics from this Pilot Wings title.
At this point in time, it is unknown when the title will ship or if it will have any type of GBA link-up features, but it is widely believed that it will be ready for the N5 launch sometime in late 2005 or 2006. More information is expected in the coming months.
