okay soo this blog is about customization in video games what is needed and what has happined befor or the types we have already seen and things we havent seen that we should and why we need it lets start this blog with the ever so fun loving shooters
-Fps custom
okay lets start with what we have seen .. so so far we have seen custom guns most well known has been in cod4 the most talked about i can think of the idea of having add ons to the guns the custom paint job the differnt types of guns it was awsome and a good idea now lets look at army of 2 the fact i could bling out my gun was pretty dam funny and the addon's given were differnt but then again they were kinda ment for that game like the sheild as neet as it might be to see it in a cod5 or something would be neet but it has no place there really but one customization i thought was really neet was in hell gate london making ur gun look one of a kind with soo many addons and differnt ways to make ur gun look cool but in the same every item you use had a differnt effect but u could use them in just about any match up you want short point is hell gate london had a really cool customization for guns soo yah another thing is the customzing characters Ut3 did it but they didnt give you much to work with but they gave u something the fact they let u download things online to is really awsome other games that had neet features i liked again army of two the differnt armor types and color jobs helms just that was nice to have cuz sometimes looking like everyone elts on ur team can be kinda lame 
now lets do the things we havent seen .... a fully custom gun option i mean full out showing you in a way how a gun is built it would be a cool option and something you would be able to learn from showing how a gun is put together in a way or atleast the peices and i mean fully custom from the berral to the trigger ro the stock the chamber the ammo holder just everything it would be cool now while im on the subject another game i enjoyed witch ha da good idea but would have been nice to see would have to be unreal turny 3 the fact that people online were making there own characters and addons it made the game really amazing fun and levels and yah just a really really good idea over all i think tho its something that more games should think of doing cuz there is people out there who will build those amazing looking levels or characters even weapons or rules i think its worth having but it would be nice if the company put out a site witch helped u do that like download this program and it be like an online character maker or map maker soo that it can get everyone more into doing those things one thing tho that is really really starting to be needed is making ur own characters making them look a sertant way it just is one of those things i think is needed from now on just like the custom gun thing you know how like theres a like almost a check list of things to do in a game like the minimum requirements to making a game like for exsample in a shooter yah know he needs to be able to have multible guns story line levels A.I i think the additions to that list should be customization its a biggy oh and online thats extreamly needed haha oh p.s if the game has transport it would be cool to customize some of it like some land transport and air even if it was little things it would be cool
Fighting games...
now lets do fighting games im gonna try to make this one short
done befor .. the customizing characters in tekken was a nice touch tho it was very limited it was a still good touch being able to toy with main characters only thing that would make it better is more items to do so being able to make them look much differnt and not only alittle soul cailbur another king of edits in a way better done in soul calibur 3 giving u custom fighting styles armors weapons(by weapons i mean they had alot of selection) everything was changeable from look to color to voise to skin soul calibur 3 had alot more option then 4 does and witch made the customization really amazing even little things were nice tho like when capcom vs snk2 came out i was pretty happy with being able to change the color of exsisting guys that was really nice now this one is hard to remeber for some the game wasnt very good but it was really cool for its time but i think back on the playstation 1 a game was released called fighter maker witch they had alot of those ideas going around like rpg maker ,race maker, fighter maker, so on but this one litteraly everything was changeable you could seriously make a guy look how ever u want but you could make him have this fighting style that was like a bunch mixed together like he could punch like a kung fu master and kick like a kick boxer and throw like a wrestler like it was crazy like that even tho the customization was very difficult to understand it was a good idea for the time a good exsample of a pretty well put together fighter to a point is WWe(wwF WWw what ever they call it now) those games being able to change look style finishers grabs attacks entrance ending all that shwag they do a good job sometimes
things that havent been done.... well thers been alot thats been done soo the only thing i can think of right now is just take the already exsisting ideas and just add more of it in a game i think were coming to the time i would like to call the custom era its a big thing to be able to do that and its just one of those things i think needs to be in gaming now like online it just feels needed the only exseption tho and ill say this for all things if you have alot alot of option then i could excuse some custom features
Racers..
done befor ... well i dont play racers very often but i know alot has been done befor soo im just gonna say if ur making a racing game you need to be able to change every little thing like this should have been happing on ps2 and xbox its a racer like yah know being able to make ur cars look there own way handle a sertant way it feels like yah know they should have it down pack alreadyi guess one thing i need to say about a racer witch i really wish i saw more of is custom music track it would be awsome to do that get you pumped while u race kinda make u feel more into it
havent done befor.... some of these might have been done but its more of a guide line things that should be done and done well and in mass numbers cuz common its a racer paint job, parts, tuning up, stickers ,tint, brands, companys, tools , building kits , lights (like neons and stuff) this is all stuff that would just make this amazing race game the tools and building kits i mean for like being able to make ur doors like a sertant way or open in a cool way or like make the hood look this way or the rims look like that the grill of the car look some other way i hope you get my point haha just having all that would be rad
now rpg's
done befor.. tho alot of rpgs let you change ur name and look its a cool thing but for some reason it just feelsi dunno dull most times then aain this isnt for all its just all the ones i can think of the option of customizing didnt seem extreamly strong like in final fantasys yeah u can change weapons and usually like rings neckless in the ff X-2 costumes or in 7 and others there was changing magic abilitys buffs yah know the stuff that helped the game play the nice thing is ur stats
not done befor.. now again i cant say i have seen or havent seen all this this is just again a bunch of things that i think would be nice but being able to change ur looks ur voise ur hair ur face(oblivion had really shitty face models i hated them) ur gear ur weapons ur neckless's rings a good rpg idea was fable and overlord being able to deside if ur good or evil like in Kotor heck even being able to change ur race like alien or human or monster creature thats just a cool thing even being able to make ur own race would be cool i dunno usually people who are into rpgs are into like everything yah know there willng to take time to go over everything buy this or that make sure there stats are a sertant way soo why wouldnt u give them the option of letting them be able to play around with there custom side as well i know if i was really into rpgs that would be something i would really really want to do
okay im gonna wrap it up now keep in mind theres prolly things im missing things ive forgotten and yah this is the best i could do with thinking about it for the time i wrote it soo let me know what u would wonna see in a custom feature or how u would change a game or add things to make the playablity last longer or what you think of my ideas even ur own soo write me let me know what yah think ciao all
