  1. Who all thinks that they should make Kris Holm's Pro Unicycling? I think
    you all have talked about this before but I thought I would bring it up
    again. That would be such a cool game.

  3. The game wouldnt make money because not enough people would buy it. Sure
    most unicyclists would buy it but there just arent enough.

    i dont think that would be the problem. i play tony hawk even though i
    dont skateboard. in fact, i cant imagine skateboarders really wanting
    to play it, as they can skateboard for real just as easily. the problem
    is that it would be very hard to make a fun unicycling game. unicycles
    are slow, cant jump very high, and there arent enough tricks to really
    do more than what is in tony hawk, which would be required to sell.
    there have been other copycat games, a bike one, i think, that didnt do
    to well. the problem is that the game was already made, as a skateboard
    game. but of course, i would buy it.

  7. It would be a cool game, but how would the player's stats go? The
    better the stats, in certain areas, the easier the character becomes to
    control. Who would be the characters in the game? Who would be the
    sponsors? What would the types of play be? What kinds of unicycles
    would you use?

  8. I say you upgrade your unicycle as you win more money. If you try like a
    drop too big for your unicycle it breaks, you get this crappy starter
    unicycle and have to busk on the streets to get something better :p Oh
    and if you have an awesome uni but you try a huge drop and your
    characters drop stats suck you can hurt yourself badly and be out for X
    amount of time (miss competitions in that particular season).

  9. i would buy the game no matter the cost

    now i've been thinkning about a unicyclist game for along time, your
    stats would be something like hop height, comfortability(which would
    improve hop, improved by KH saddle, aIr seat etc.), speed, drop height,
    strength(of uni), balance of corse

    the carrer would be a mix of freestyle events, Muni events, and trials,
    and of course street sessions

    i think a stand still would be like the manual or an endo in the bike
    games

    also it would have like challenge mode or in game compition, or missions
    like how in the BMX games they'd be like "o0hh clear these dirt jumps
    and we'll except you as an extreme biker", or in THPS impress the
    skaters

    and the secret characters would be awsome, i was thinking a cave man
    with a big old stone wheel and a frame/cranks made of wood. maybe a
    clown(wich would be an obvious)

    the final level would probably be a challenge to Kh him self, maybe an
    extremly crazy Muni Mission,

    and the characters would be like dan heaton ryan atkins kris holm, and
    any other unicyclist

    there would be a custom character and uni application, you could change
    the color of your paint and wheel color and stickers on it and what type
    of seat(every addition would cost money)

    you would earn money by winning events completing misson ect.

    i think that would be pretty awsome

  10. It would be very difficult to use a viewpoint that would work well with
    unicycling. You have to watch your balance side to side and forward and
    backward. You could use a top down angle, but then you cannot see how
    high obstacles are, or slopes. Using say a top-right view, you could
    see height, slopes, and some balance, but it would still be difficult.
    They could not cut out any of the balancing because that would just make
    it really easily. The forward and backward balance does not always come
    into effect, but if they took that out, then hopping on slopes would be
    way too easy. It would be a very very difficult game to make well.

  11. I'd buy it, but it would be extremely unrealistic. The skateboarding
    games are already. You can do like 100 foot drops and land them, and you
    can grind a rail about a football field long, and you can ollie about
    ten feet. So overall, it would definitely be a crappy game.

  13. I think it would be cool if it was an arcade game like that skateboard
    game where you actually stand on a board and you can control it by
    leaning and pushing on the back and stuff like like that. It should have
    a uni frame, saddle, cranks and pedals so you actually petal to go, lean
    to turn, hop to jump, etc. i think it would be a little more realistic
    and alot more fun.
    I tried to make a picture of it but im not very talented in paint.

  15. yea so james_potter it would be unrealistic but thats the point of
    playing a video game, you don't play it to simulate real life you play
    it to have fun and do crazy thing you know couldn't be done in real
    life,

    you don't play a skateboarding game to be realistic and try and do a
    little 50-50 cuase you could just go try it and it would be much more
    rewarding, you play for the crazy jumps and drops

    So basically you're saying that any unicycling video game would be
    crappy. Your reason: skateboard games are unrealistic. Nice logic buddy.

  17. How about instead of making a whole unicycle game, in the next tony hawk
    game they have a little segment when you beat it where you can choose
    to be Kris Holm. Then they would only have to make one small level
    instead of a whole game.
