Best games set in Australia or a fictionalised version of Australia?.
CrashTaz the Tasmanian TigerAbiotic FactorThe Adventures of Down Under Dan
Wish there was a Postal 2 style game set in the NT so I could massacre abos as a bogan.
>>721235712isnt there the Big Lez Show FPS coming out soon that lets you basically do this >>721236252 ?
>>721235712The game where my hard cock enters the vagina of an East Asian pussy and have me misbehave towards the authorities because I hate Australian culture as well as the average British life that lives in this place.
>>721235712In the middle 90s a small australian dev put out a surreal game called DogDay, where you play as a dog in a run down city that's run by a dictator and his stasi. I like to believe it's a statement about the Australian nanny state.
What were Ford Falcons like?
>>721237928shitboxes that get lusted over by hoons who should be shot on sight so I dont have to hear them doing burnouts at 1 AM in the morningI honestly dont understand why there isn't a self-perpetuating speed camera fund.Speed cameras collect fines>Fines fund more speed cameras>Cameras collect finesCycle self perpetuates until either: Theres a camera for every kilometer of road Everyone follows the fucking traffic lawssome equilibrium between the two
>>721238531yeah but this is bad because *incoherent anger* and furthemore this is against my rights, probably, somehow
>>721238584>rights>australiaGet fined into debt slavery like the convict you are.
"it's against the rules to drive faster than this"ok"and we'll check to be sure as well"rrraaargh!
>>721237928The ba and onward were kinda cool, but the 4 speed auto gearbox was shit
>>721238849What's wrong bogan-kun, too dumb from petrol sniffing to use cruise control so that’s never an issue?
>>721237928We really need an aussie version of my summer car.
>>721238973i'm not sure what you're getting at
Dot and the Kangaroo is farked mate.
>>721237720>somebody besides me played DogDay
>>721235712Borderlands The PreSequel takes place on the moon of the fictional setting. They wanted it to be decently alien compared to the mother planet so they made the moon Space Australia. It had some references that went over my head and for some reason a little British kid who wasn't good at being that but overall I enjoyed it. Top factor was a unique gun you could get called Boganella (I gather that's aus for "trashy hick dame"?) that chats shit at the enemy while you run around using her.
>>721235712hollow knight
>>721239821There's at least three of usWasn't there a TV that dragged you to some kind of hell if you turned it onThats all I can remember
>>721237928Falcons (and any Holden model) were driven primarily by faggots
>>721235712I've been unsuccessfully trying to remember the name for decades but I played this mad max(not actually licensed) simulator in the 80s where you control a gang of road warriors in mororcycles, cars and trucks and go around Oz looting and engaging other convoys in what I assume was dice or percentage based vehicular combat.
>>721240314Mostly I remember playing space invaders in the arcade and being menaced by the cops.
>>721237928Gay but I'd rather them to fucking ford rangers.
Why are Australian cities so beautiful? Melbourne literally looks like it's out of 2100.What went so right here?
>>721241446Depends on the suburb you go to, I prefer smaller towns personally.t. moved to Melbourne because no where else has fucking jobs.
>>721241446>Why are Australian cities so beautiful? MelbourneIs that a jokeIt's ugly brown jutting rectangles everywhere, and I don't mean the buildings. Some retard designer literally had the idea to just put HUGE FLAT FUCKING RECTANGLES everywhere
>>721235712My game.it's not out yet.
>>721241613Keep us updated cunt
>>721239059>like that show with the abbo mechanics rigging car wrecks upmap would be too big though
Brisbane City Hall was one of the most expensive buildings and the second largest construction of the Inter-war period, after the Sydney Harbour Bridge.Brisbane is soulful
>>721241446I'm obliged to hate on Melbourne because I live in Sydney, but it really feels like the ideal modern city. It's large and skyscrapers are everywhere, but all reachable by walking/trams, lots of cultural spots throughout the city, plenty of parks, a beautiful river running right through the middle, even the sports stadiums are easily reachable. For someone who only occasionally passes through while visiting family I can't think of anything I can complain about, other than lack of more old buildings, but even then it has Sydney beat.
>>721241446>posts a sky viewNow post a Melbourne street, preferably without the following:FilthHomelessImmigrantsAids flagsGood luck.
>>721241882is that a recent pic, did they really put their christmas tree up already?
>>721241894>other than lack of more old buildings, but even then it has Sydney beat.Post kino heritage buildings
>>721241446Built later and less organically than most places, combined with shitloads of money from the gold rush. Combined it meant a lot more central areas could be put towards parks and large public works projects than almost anywhere else.I feel the MCG personifies this. Nowhere else is a stadium that large so truly central to a city.
When are they gonna catch that fella?
>>721241446Hope you're ready for the daily machete attack from a sudanese.
>>721241894>other than lack of more old buildings, but even then it has Sydney beat.Melbourne has big standouts but there's less old buildings on average, I feel. Talking about good old buildings anyway, not the endless heritage listed terrace shitboxes that both cities have.In general inner melbourne really is ideal, but the big problem is that so much of the city is just ENDLESS suburban sprawl.
>>721238973>reading comprehension
>>721242097There's a few. The State Library is really cool, even has Ned Kelly's armour on display. There's the cathedrals, Flinders St Station which you can see in the pic above, the Royal Exhibition Building, probably a few others I'm forgetting. And the NGV is more recent but feels like a Chinese palace.
>>721235712Gundam games.
>>721242283took a train from geelong to melbourne a while back, literally nothing but housing developments the entire wayand I mean NOTHING, no servos, no shopping centres, not even a fucking maccas
KenshiMad max
>no culture>no entertainment
>>721240314You're probably thinking of a different game
>>721241493That's unfortunate
Remember an old educational game called Ingenious, where you did a bunch of stuff like bushfire watch, race a solar car across the desert etc. Played it a bit at school back in the day. There's also Broken Roads, which is not really that good but also not really that bad either: https://store.steampowered.com/app/1403440/Broken_Roads/
>>721242452Yeah the sprawling suburbs are incredibly soulless. Not to mention cheap and poorly designed. They will become meth wastelands if the economy tanks.
>>721238531every time I hear of people getting hit by the them it makes me smile, there are so many absolutely insane drivers who drive like crazy.I live in the burbs not in a major city now and somehow the people here drive worse than in cities, its fucking crazy how these people act and there isn't as many cameras so you see some crazy shit.there is this one spot that the cops straight up camp, its a 60 zone right before an 80 zone and they are sitting behind this sign, at least once a fortnight I see them fly out and grab some cunt and slap him for going more than 20 over. idk how they never learn when I see it happen so much
>>721243313what are the worst suburbs in sydney and melbourne?
>>721243313I currently live in Townsville and had my car rekt by a meth head and would've probably been seriously injured if not for the fact his shitbox hit a ute first and sent that down a bridge.He was on the run for 2 years and has finally been caught. Fucking wanker.
>>721241894melb is very nice to visit but its fucking miserable to drive around. syd is a million times better to live in, I guess if you work right in the middle of the city and live there so you rarely drive.but I actually have hobbies that require me to go places and while public transport is more than adequate for my (short) commute, still need to drive for a lot of stuff, especially to leave the city.the grid structure sounds like a great idea, and its great for walking around and for finding places, but needing to stop at a light every 5 seconds for your entire trip through is miserable.
>>721241446now actually go walk down there
>>721242187Either frozen to death when he fled to the bush or hiding at a mate's. Either way, they're not going to find him for awhile.
>>721243350In Melbourne? Probably Sunshine or Broadmeadows, but depends on what your metric is
Why is everything outside of the cbd just a suburb?
>>721243765What else would it be?
>>721241894you should consider radelaide.>>721235712wages of war
>>721243765because the melbourne city council has the most money and has enough power to tell the state government where they want people to live (not the CBD) and where to work (the CBD), so we end up building housing on prime farmland and massive corporate towers on swampland :)btw they're trying to outlaw working from home despite it objectively raising productivity, reducing pollution, and improving family cohesion
>prime farmland
>>721237928Don't know, we are a Commodore family.
>>721244224sovl
Say something nice about Brisbane
>>721243765Australia doubled down on the American dream and people think owning a quarter acre bloc is what you need minimum to live a decent life.>>721237928R33/34 >>>>>>> Falcons and Monaros any day of the week. >>721241446They're not, they're just really the same as newer American cities, just not as delapidated and kept very clean because Australian's for all their faults, fucking hate littering and have a near Asian need for order.>>721235712Best game set in Australia, is the best Forza game, 3. it did the best capturing the look of Australia at least. One of the issues of setting shit in Aus though, is really.. it doesn't have any guns, when I lived there my friends got busted for even having Gel Blasters and were arrested at a paintball field for a Gel Ball blaster match and were put into court for automatic firearms offenses. Australia is a peak Nanny State with little to no real crime, so it's hard to imagine anything "action-y" happening there.Also Australian video game developers are all turbo wokies. I know, had friends who worked at 2K and others who moved and worked at some Melbourne studios.You also have to take into account the attacks on NBN by the Libtards and the Libtards also defunding all Video Game development grants with brandis outright banning any funding of Video Games, led to the entire industry bailing to New Zealand and Texas.
>>721242251You need to stop watching a current affair so much m8
>open Aus thread>polcel seethe
>>721244526I have half an acre, about 40 minutes from Melbourne CBD.
>>721244563ausfags on /v/ cant help but bring up politics at every fucking opportunity. Just like every other /v/ thread I guess.
>>721244526I dunno man, I got a bunch of guns. your friends sound like retards if they fucked up that badly.
>>721244224Just seems like the wrong place to live if you want a nice green lawn.
>>721235712The long drive
>>721244739It's either a personal bore or recycled shit water for irrigation
Sonic in Bondi
>>721244224well that's not a suburb of melbourne now is it
>>721244635Kind of hard, because the industry was assfucked so hard by the Liberals that literally Australia lost almost all it's fucking studios, then the new grants are so fucking insane that the Government basically gets crypto control over your IP if you accept it.https://youtu.be/GG5m8NJoHoM?si=9yjoJxEuX-YDlXkE&t=1532Also in general the entire fucking legal document you need to sign to get funding for a video game, is fucking incoherent and makes no fucking sense.Australia used to have a pretty good video game industry (2K/Irrational Games, Team Bondi, Microforte, Krome) etc but they basically all got chased overseas by Tony Faggot and Brandis on the command of Murdoch.
>>721244739There's plenty of ground water around the area
>>721244526Gel blasters and toys being treated as guns if they look like guns is utter fucking bullshit but I'm otherwise happy with our gun laws, it's a bureaucratic pain in the ass, and we can't own the cool stuff, but you can still get some if you put in the effort, which is as it should be, and America's bullshit can't happen here because of it.
While not set in Australia, it is Australian developed.

>>721244635>refuse to vote>life revokedThey only piss and moan at every opportunity because their form of governance doesn't allow anyone to not partake in it. Doesn't matter which tribe decides to fuck them in the ass they have to play the game regardless.
>>721235712>crtl+f>no Death Stranding 2Fags
>>721245061just be a queenslander, problem solved.on the other hand, gelblaster shit is so overpriced, it only costs marginally more to get into real firearms
>>721244974>command of MurdochSo glad the liberals have been trounced out for the next decade. I'm not the biggest fan of labour (half the party being on the CCP payroll for one), but the fucking liberals being the ass wipes of billionaires like Murdoch and Gina was awful.
>>721244523I live in Paddington and its niceNothing else really Brisbane is the most nothing bog standard city aroundAt least its not Perth though And all you WA fags who are too neet and scared to leave your shithole state need not apply
>>721245213Not really. If you fail to vote you will get a small fine. You are also free to donkey vote. You can also do a postal vote if going to a polling center triggers you.
>>721244974>muh fundingwhy should I pay for you to make your game faggot? Stop being a freeloader
>>721244523Why are there so many one way streets?
>>721245213Just pay the $20 retard tax bro
>forgot to fill out the census>the fine is like 300 bucksI'm so stupid bros...
Dingo never ate the baby uts a lie
>>721245270Seeing the libs get fucked that hard was so satisfying.
>>721245258it's funny that every state has their own flavour of nanny state. sure in qld you can own gel blasters but ride a bicycle without a helmet and cops will pull you over and scream at you
>>721245659Oi you better watch your mouth mate
>>721245881That'll happen in any state.
>>721235712kenshi
>>721245991oh yeah you're right. must have switched universes thanks to the mandela effectfor some reason i thought that was just a qld law
gettin real fuckin sick of e-scooters, desu.
>>721246110The rental ones got banned in perth because some drunk slag killed someone with one
>>721241446Looks decent in a plane, looks like shit when you're on the ground, especially if you live there
>>721235712I hope and expect nothing from this country
>>721246110where I live we have freely useable public ones that are solar powered.they have gps so they only function within the city area, but you can literally pick them, use them, and then put them down where ever you like.so you just see them in the most random places, its kind of strange.
>>721237928>the US never got the Mad Max interceptorFUCK YOU TO HELL AND BACK, FORD!I know it sounds petty but this is the reason why I won't buy a Ford.
>>721246378our dodge chargers were hugely improved over US ones too, while we still built them locally.
>>721244224Idiot.
>>721244523Riverfire is sexo
>>721245213Either spoil your vote or pay fifty dollars you lazy fucking retard. We didn't put together the best and fairest electoral system on the planet just for freeloading fucknuts like you to bitch about it.
>>721244974You are what we call a low information voter.Actually a complete retard.Those grants didn't exist for the vast amount of time, when studios were at their best here.Grants don't solve the problem and are a bandaid fix for a failing industry.The real answer is that it makes ZERO sense to station a studio in this country. Everything here is expensive, we are far away from everything, the talent here is medicore, and it's infinitely easier and cheaper to outsource studios in bumfuck India and elsewhere.Not to mention that half your studio examples got shutdown or faded out of relevance during a Labor term. Team Bondi, for example, died because Brendan McNamara does not know how to run a successful studio.>muh murdochOh I see, you're a redditfag who gets his talking points from the dumbest place on the internet. Continue on.
>>721246540it's alright, but hasn't been the same since they retired the aardvark.

>>721247823Im all for actual competition to inact major parties to do something.But I doubt you'll see labor lose in the next 2 elections. Very possible minority government though.
Australia has been fucked since the Mabo decision. Hope you all remembered to do your daily land recognition.
>>721248117>muh indigenous bogeyman They do and want nothing. Considering what other countries deal with with thier unwanted we got off pretty lucky>muh IndiansCompletely different issue.

>>721248672I really hope you're trolling. If you're not you are incredibly and extremely ignorant and really shouldn't be speaking on such matter.
>>721248770I can say whatever I want.
>>721248545it's quilpie in fucking queensland you absoute fuckwit.
>>721248885>I can say whatever I want.Not even remotely true in this country. You're deluded.
Is Australian internet still fucking horrifically slow and expensive as fuck? Did they fix the NBN?
>>721248736>Cruise control only able to accelerate Where did you get your car from? Temu?
>>721249091They're fixing it now, after the cost got btfo by competing governments skimming off the top

>>721244523fuck the go between
>>721249486You can post cope all you want but before the 2025 election greens and teals were both looking to pick up seats
>>721237928Beautiful.I had a '94 EF and I loved that piece of shit.Fucked if I'd ever buy one again tho.
