You know, I did dream of Sid Meier's Pirates! when I was in high school. I
was obsessed with that game for a long time.

This is way shorter than the normal Denny Pants post. And it has a
different feel to it as well. Perhaps it has been outsourced? :)

I've had a few dreams involving games although they usually happened after
marathon sessions with those titles. (ie one dream was about old-school
Castlevania and another was about the 'perfect tetris game' - don't ask
what happened with the last one) 9_9

One of stranger dreams I had, though, involved a game that I hadn't played
in months - Planescape: Torment.

Basically, I was playing a sequel to the original game - first as a
'guide' for the Nameless One and, later on, *as the character*.

I'd started out exploring a section of Sigil until I enountered the Lady of
Pain and died. After I awoke *inside the character's body* and in a
different location, I had to solve a difficult puzzle in order to leave the
room. With some experimentation, I solved it, gained a new item and some
experience points and continued my travels.

What surprised me most about this dream was the amount of 'detail' involved
in the overhead view - even with today's graphics cards, I don't believe
that a convincing map/model of Sigil could be rendered (at least, not
without some serious 'optimization'...or a gigantic monitor).

Anyway, feel free to post your own examples.

With the current state of gaming (and the the high requirements of some
products) I'm sure that some of you have dreamed about a better GTA or
similar title.

It's not like there's isn't a market for, say, GTA Toontown. *shrug*

It's also much, much more 'wrong' than his usual posts on oh so many levels,
ahem.

I had some sort of Final Fantasy RPG inspired dream. The dream was in
first person perspective, though in the lower left was a sort of circular
dial that I knew represented my hitpoints and spellpoints. There
were 3 other people with me in my party. We were in a hallway facing a
locked door. I approach the door and cast lockpick on it. My spellpoint
meter decreases by a bit, but regenerates. The word blinks in front of
me, and there's a click as the door opens, revealing a large open air
mall-like area, but we're on large space station in orbit around a planet.

While exploring, we entered a shop, where we were attacked by these four
black mage robots. One of my party members jumps forward and punches one of
the robots with his fist, causing large white numbers (because it was due
to physical damage, I think to myself) to bounce over its head, indicating
how much damage he had inflicted with his attack. (I remember he did about
200 points of damage, and I remember being very worried because this wasn't
a lot of damage...)

The one of the robots incites a group fire spell against us, literally
incinerating us all. Red numbers (for fire damage) in the range of 10s of
thousands bounce over our heads as we immediately fall over, blackend to a
crisp.

The screen blanks out, and once again I find myself and my party, in the
hallway facing the locked door of the space station/colony. Thank goodness
for save files, eh? We go back into the store and get attacked by the
robotic mages again. This time, I instruct one of my members to cast a
fire resistance spell on us, while I tell another to cast a water-based
spell against the robots. The third party member uses the skill
"improvise" (the word blinks above his head) as he runs around the store,
finds a large piece of cloth and wraps it around one of the robots. When
the robot tries to cast his fire spell, the cloth catches fire, causing
confusion and damage to the robots. One of the robots then tries to cast
Ice on his flaming companion, which kills him.

every realize you were dreaming IN a dream? thats always kinda freaky.
thats usually when you wake up. in a dream I had accidentally killed
a kid while driving. it was a terrifying feeling and then...I realized
in the dream I was dreaming so dont worry.I then woke up.

what blows me away is the fact your mind can generate a "script" a
story, it creates enviroments and scenarios.

my hope is someday you can record your dreams somehow. that would be
something.
