As much as I'd like to just vote for the meme option of Border Down, I kinda want them to do a new horizontal game. Turns out people agree.
They should have a look at Einhander. I think they are more than capable of delivering a good game out of that. They already did something similar with Strania, and at least a lot of Americans (way more than who actually bought the game in 1998, of course) would be on board with a game that simply
advertises itself as "the spiritual successor to Einhander". Maybe it's a bad idea, I don't know, but I doubt it'd sell any less than what they've already made.

There's definitely a trend over the last few years of a growing love for the hori's. So why is this? Hori's certainly capture the mainstreams attention more than verts, but thats not reflected on these boards. Is it an over-saturation of verts leading to people yearning for something different, or what? I'd be interested to know why die-hard vert fans have voted this way.
For the vast majority of this forum's life, everyone hated R-Type. Then one day everyone loves R-Type and starts giving it the respect it deserves.
It's completely random and makes no sense.
