Well I might be the only one who simply cannot wait for this release, however from the screen shots, it would appear they are quite easily able to convert old school classic 2d games onto the DS.

Hell if they can do the settlers (if its as good as the screenies look) then theoretically they could do C&C games...

Indeed.

knighty · October 06, 2006, 19:12:33 PM

but which one is it..... ?

settlers 1 and 2 rocked, the rest were terrible

the re-released settlers 2 as "settlers 2 10th anaversory" or something like that... they made it 3D and its bloody terrible too

Look at the screenshots, settlers 2 (original not stupid 3d)

ahhh

i was thinking the stupid 3d one looks almost identical to the old settlers 2..... tho the ground is all messed up in the 3d one, forgot about that

Yep tahts what I was just thinking... I keep putting off getting one becuase I know i wont really use it. I think the thing that is going to push me over the edge and make me get one is when then Wii is out and they show off the DS & Wii doing funky stuff together

You know it will sit in a draw gathering dust for a few months until one lonely night, when your out of money and cant go to the pub..... then........

.......youll take it down the local Gamestation and sell it for booze money!!!
