nick the greek Posted October 3, 2009 Report Share Posted October 3, 2009 http://sixteen-tons.de/HOMEThere are some pictures in the products menu that show emergency 4 units in other games. What is that? Is sixteen tons working on new games regarding emergency vehicles? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hunter42 Posted October 3, 2009 Report Share Posted October 3, 2009 Notruf: Retter im Einsatz, Feuerwehr im Einsatz and SOS - Rettung auf See, sea rescue are have "Willi wills wissen" at the top.The reporter Willi Weitzel gives young viewers an insight into many different subjects and professions, a policeman, for example, driver, fisherman, soldier, journalist, growers, butchers, farmers, ambulance and mayor. For this he seeks to representatives of these professions, and it accompanies a workday can be long and the work exactly explain. If anything is unclear, he asks questions.But he informed not only about jobs, but also about what life looks like, for example, for the blind, homeless people, Jews or Sinti and Roma. Even in a boarding school he was a guest.(lol, google translator )So....educational games?They don't look too bad though, kind of like expanisions to EM4.Very similar to EM4, but there's also a sea/costal based game too:Could be good if you can speak German, doubt you'll get it in another language though.

nick the greek Posted October 3, 2009 Author Report Share Posted October 3, 2009 Why are these guys working on things like these instead of making a new revolutionary game? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hunter42 Posted October 3, 2009 Report Share Posted October 3, 2009 Why are these guys working on things like these instead of making a new revolutionary game?Because they're a small, german company and not a large corporation like EA?They most likely secured a deal with the TV producers of that show. They also probably need any business they can get. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Xplorer4x4 Posted October 4, 2009 Report Share Posted October 4, 2009 Looks pretty much like a simplified EM4. I wonder if another company would be interested in making an EM5 seeing as sixteen tons hadnt done any EM games previous to EM3. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wich means 16 tons still hase some ideas up there head.I hope so. They have made some great games and it would be a same to stop it and start making kid games.

Ami89E1234 Posted October 6, 2009 Report Share Posted October 6, 2009 if EA or another company buys them, there goes my business. and if EA does buy them, ill file an anti-monopoly lawsuit.EA Games - F*ck Up Everythingbesides, 16T has no money anyway, so they cant do anything. and my toe has nerve damage Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xplorer4x4 Posted October 6, 2009 Report Share Posted October 6, 2009 16Tons has to have some money to be around this long. They may not have EA money, or Nintendo, or M$ money but enough to turns profits. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nick the greek Posted October 6, 2009 Author Report Share Posted October 6, 2009 They must have enough money for a new game because the have already created one(I don't know the name of it but I know that it was made and released after em4 release). These small games really look like shit as Hoppah said and they should really begin to work on something more exciting... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nick the greek Posted October 6, 2009 Author Report Share Posted October 6, 2009 Yes it is called The Show and it seems a really nice futuristic game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hunter42 Posted October 6, 2009 Report Share Posted October 6, 2009 Hahahahaha, Ami gets his post edited for language, then Hoppah goes and swears I think 16T needs to more focus on new titles, not regurgitate previous games that are edited for "education" - Probably need the money though... Can't believe EM3 is now classed as a "classic" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nick the greek Posted October 6, 2009 Author Report Share Posted October 6, 2009 I think that they are changing many things in their company. They got a new website, new titles and hopefully a new emergency game... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest MGC|Uthog Posted October 6, 2009 Report Share Posted October 6, 2009 For all we know Sixteen Tons has already been taken over. Some companies are owned by other bigger ones but keep there own name. Look at EA and Dice. Dice is owned by EA but still makes games under there own name.

Dice is owned by EA but still makes games under there own name.Usually you see the parent company name though, and in Dice's case, their logo was change (below the "Digital Illusions Creative Entertainment" it says "An EA company) they also added EA infront of DICE - not very obvious though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nick the greek Posted October 7, 2009 Author Report Share Posted October 7, 2009 If a bigger company buys Sixteen Tons that means more money for Sixteen Tons or not? In this case it would be really good for them...( Capitalism ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
