Mafia 2 didn't hit the mark apparently - should have done H&D3 instead.

Now we must endure the clone army offensive of Medal of Honour and Call of Duty with its scrappy and unbearable multiplayer, not to mention ear bleeding American accents. The single player is always a good 2 hour laugh though.

Not really.. Mafia 2 could have been a great game.
Considering 2k butchered and GTA'ed Mafia 2 what makes you think H&D3 wouldnt get the same treatment?

H&D on the xbox360, ps3 and PC.. it would fail miserably.

H&D1 was on Dreamcast and PS1, that doesn't mean they were good ports. I know the playstation version sucked bad but heard from others that the Dreamcast version was pretty good. H&D is a PC game for sure, you just need the keyboard and mouse but those are available for the consoles. I'm not a big console fan, especially for games like H&D. FPS aren't as good on consoles. (Even though Goldeneye n64 is great).

H&D3 won't be coming for... a long, long time and by then maybe the gaming industry will wake the fuck up thup01 we can only hope!

But it wasn't.

H&D3 would have required a totally different approach; different decisions would have been made leading to different outcomes. For starters I doubt it would have been made for consoles anyway which is probably one of the fundamental reasons why there is no H&D3 - the rise of the console kiddy is in full swing.

I was going to say 5 years :lol: but we have to wait for WW2 games to be popular again, you don't want a stupid squad based game in some country the USA is currently invading do you? :cry: that'd be awful.

Besides, 2k Czech aren't the only people allowed to make an SAS squad based WW2 game grin01

2k czech are was the only people who allowed to make something that really differed.
Finally we can calmly say: -"Good bye hd3!Good bye forever!" :mrgreen:

It definitely won't be "good bye" to H&D3, we'll see it again!

Top Spin 4 has been released, let's see if they close down 2k Czech or if they annouce Mafia 3 or H&D3... maybe they will make a squad based tennis game where you play as Mafia type characters :lol:

Strauss Zelnick (take two) said that Mafia 3 will be released within a few years.

They really forgot about H&D series. I don`t have any illusions.

HD3 will never released!!!
since HD2 was no support there,
2003-2004 how much people was playing at the same time,may 3000-4000?
unfortunately no one was buying HD2 and it was a really Bad Deal for IS.
They dont make tools or upload a Plugin for im-/export models etc.
no Homepage, dont answer to emails etc....
for me it would be a dream
but as with most dreams,they will never be reality.

I read somewhere that the original H&d2 sold over a million copies, think it was on the SS box.  IN which case i guess it would of sold a lot more after Sabre squadron. 

Is this quite good for a pc only game? 

I know operation-flashpoint sold 2 million and that was considered very successful.   


On the other hand I read mafia 2 only sold 700,000 and it was cross platform.  Going by this i would think illusion's logical choice would be to make h&d3 (hopefully following the same non-dumbed down route).  When H&D2 was released there were ww2 games left right and center (CoD 1, BF 1942, Medal of honor), currently the big guns (cod,bf etc) are all in modern theaters, I would expect this would help sales. 

I think vietcong 2 sales were quite bad so I would guess that rules a 3 for that series out.

What do you think?

Reading reviews on topspin, it sounds like it might do alright so hopefully 2k is still going strong. (obviously though without some key h&d devs).

Edit, found it:  Released in October 2003, Hidden & Dangerous 2 has sold more than 1 million units worldwide and....

This was before SS was released.

Now i can assume that there were different reasons not to do hd3.
