Please post your recommendations for the games you want to play for next year. Here are a few guidlines, shout out goes to Jody for these:
- We are currently using the bi-weekly game night schedule so there might only be 2 games played per month. Make your game recommendations count.
- Multiplayer required for all game nights so please make sure it's easy enough for newer players to play the game if they happen to rent it for this occasion. If it takes more than 15 minutes to get a new player to start this delays the times we get to play the game (unlocking multiplayer, registering multiplayer account, downloading patched, etc). If the game is too awesome to pass up be upfront with the time it takes to get a new player ready to play so we can alert them about this ahead of time.
- The hype over the game'smultiplayershould be heavily considered because we want enough GameSpotters to play with.When the game is released check the News page under the game charts (bottom of the page) to see if there have been enough sales and rentals for the game.
- Note that it will be important to have the staff communication through voice chat so please consider games or console platform/PC capabilities. We might consider third party voice chat, but this does make things more complicated when players show up late without planning for it.
- While we might have our more favorite games, be sure to also include anticipated multiplayer games and the month they are likely to be released.
- On last note, rhythm games will not be considered as this would require staff to leave our desks and join the studio, which is not available for us until later in the day. Therefore, games like RockBand and Guitar Hero will not be considered for future game nights.
Also, don't forget to share which editor or video producer you would like to play. I'll do my best to round them up and ask them about their work schedules.
