The original Crimson Skies (2000) for PC is the only game I've played that exceeds all standards. It has EVERYTHING. You feel the airplane in the air (perfect sim), it has an amazing and convincing storyline through many nations and plane building (RPG feeling), it has perfectly balanced dogfights (best of the shooter games), it has hundreds of stunts to perform (great feeling of dexterity games), its missions feel like you are on rails and you accomplish a big variety of different achievements, not just shooting (adventure feeling), the game even has a race!!! (Racing). I pity those who haven't played the PC game and dug into the story and atmosphear yet...
@@marcojaimejardina7526 When it was re released digitally on xbox and it sold like hot cakes, there was some buzz that we might get a new one. Sadly even with all those new studios that Microsoft has, it's still lead by an entity that doesn't seem to listen to what's wanted to return. I would've pre ordered the new xbox, even though the XBOX ONE took four tries to get a console that actually worked at the beginning of last generation, if there was a new Crimson Skies. But there's not, so I probably won't. I'll more likely buy a used xbox one S when the new unites come out just so I can play the digital re release. It boggles my mind why no one has basically stolen the IP out from under them with a spiritual successor with some co op Sky Jacking options. An open world game with a focus on such and PVE to work together to jack roaming mobs of merchants and take on other missions could be grand. But alas, everyone is all about the Cod of Dookie, Battle Royales on foot, and so much tired, done to death, and not even done reliably well, trash that's more out to scam buyers rather than deliver a worth while game at an honest price. And now they're talking about hiking those costs even higher. They wanna play that game, I won't be playing, or not until their game hits the 10 dollar bargain bin. I'll go play Streets of Rage and other fair priced fun excursions instead. Where's our DarkStalkers, Rival Schools, Crimson Skies, MOTORSTORM, Bloody Roar, and the actual games with major imaginative twists? Instead it's a bunch of high license, like sports licenses, as bad as ye ol movie license, games that have the audacity to declare themselves realistic, and yet fail at that, and forget they were meant to be fun games. I think PSO2 has shown in part that even older out of date games have so much more life and imagination than what the west has been pumping out, not to mention showing less actual game play in supposed game play trailers. Aside from some interesting bits from the east, it's pretty sad to see where the industry has gone.Actual fun attention to details have been confused for visual fidelity over all and much of the time we're paying companies to test their game for them, when supposed betas are used as demos instead as players treat it as such because they have no paid obligation, nor reward, for reporting breaking bugs, and then by the time things get fixed, or told they will be, they've already grabbed the money and run. You know, like ANTHEM they then said they would fix and it's not been making much noise what so ever. As fast as many games hit those bargin bin prices now, I think I'll wait for those. I shouldn't have but reserved the new Gundam Vs game because at least I know how many suits are going to be in that, a LOT, and it's had it's paces run well in the arcades, something many games don't pay their dues in anymore either. Until I see something new really tickle my fancy, or the IP's we've chanted we wanted back for now multiple generations, I think many of these companies can take a flying leap. If you're not going to use the IP several are asking for, stop holding onto it and sell it to someone who will at a fair price.
I got to meet Weisman at last year's GenCon, and being a big fan of Battletech, Shadowrun, and RI's Crimson Skies walkthrough, it was an absolute joy to meet him. I knew it was futile, but I asked him about Crimson Skies anyway, and he said that Microsoft still has the rights to making video games in the franchise. I knew he'd say that, but I could tell he was really excited to one day get another crack at it, and I sure would be, too.
I have all the books, and Clix models from Crimson Skies, as well as the original PC version. 5:15 Best background music ever for a Flight Sim game of old. 👍👍& 10⭐
I was on the crimson skies 2 team. I made the desert fox airplane showed here. It was really sad when they canned Crimsons Skies 3 to focus on Shadowrun.
For some reason, I keep waiting to hear something like "after the end of the war, Wiseman returned to his rural Alabama homestead to be with his wife and now grown kids. He worked the farm for 40 years until his death in 1985. During his time he kept in touch with his old unit, and as time went on, they all met their final calling. He continued to make regular trips to honor the men who gave the greatest sacrifice a man could give to his country, and visited the Captains tomb." Or something.
The amount of research and effort you put into your videos is amazing. I can already tell these will be a joy to watch and eagerly await the next episode.
I do hope that this LP returns for its conclusion someday. I always enjoy your videos RI; thanks for your fascinating insight into the production of both this game series and Trespasser before it, as well as the wonderful commentary.
@@hellacoorinna9995 The March 2000 pre-release "Pre-Beta" screenshots had Devastator and Brigand in Red Skull Legion scheme from the board game and the game's cover (complete with black checkers on engine cover) as a placeholder for the Fortune Hunters, with Firebrand having different Hollywood Knights scheme and firing multiple guns instead of single in the release.
I just recently first played CS: High Road to Revenge with the backwards compatibility, just wanna say I love the “PBS Documentary” feel and vibe. Sad I missed this series 20 years ago
I've only heard the name Crimson Skies, a game that I don't know too much about, and you make this intro so well that it I'm compelled to watch the whole LP good job RI hats off to you. Oh, any chance this LP will show up on youtube?
So we have micro shaft to blame. Why am I not F#$%ING surprised? We need another Crimson Skies, or at least a spiritual successor. We need more multi sandbox leveled exploration games again. Especially like this. I wonder who's going to be the bold ones to get the job done well.
*FASA* stands for _Freedonian Air & Space Administration_ . It was founded to make third-party materials for Game Design Workshop's _Traveller_ rpg. _Battletech_ , originally a tabletop wargame, was its first IP, followed by _Shadowrun_ and _Earthdawn_ . The games industry crash of the 1990s led to them collapsing. Microsoft bought out FASA to gain control of their IPs.
I would like a sequel of Crimson Skies. It has an excellent storyline, an amazing aesthetic, and the most important thing in a game: it has fun. They created a wonderful "world" with air pirates, people living in zeppelins and chaotic air battles with zeppelins, exotic airplanes and fancy weapons. A sequel would be an good alternative to the lots of standard existing FPS games. It could even have a simulator mode with more real physics, and an easy game mode.
Great job so far on the LP. I have a suggestion for the Plane of the Day for when you start interacting with The Protectorate of Ontario: the Avro Arrow: The Cold War Interceptor that never came to full fruition. It's a good tie-in with the territory and an interesting story all together. Can't wait to see more from both the LP and yourself.
OMG! TB dint lie when he said that contributors from somethingawful held their content to a much higher standard. I mean I lost myself in your narrative and almost forgot that you where telling the story of a game. If Trespasser showed me anything is that this LP is gonna be insane! You sir have showed me what "quality" looks and feels like, I thank you.
Just finished watching your Trespasser LP and I'm certainly looking forward to this. Tried playing it once but had some compatibility problems with my hardware. BTW, anyone know what the music in this video is from? It sounds familiar.
Background music is too loud and makes trying to listen to the narrative hard to do. Time for a new reboot of this game, high-end graphics/sound and choice of gameplay or accurate physics.
Thanks Total Biscuit. Crison Skies T_T I will miss you. So many great lan party tournaments with friends. Shame both my Mechwarior 2 copies won't work on Windows 7. SO MUCH WIN T_T ... all gone.
speechless. really want to make a smart comment but after that intro, i am litteraly speechless! i could show that to people and they would belive it were true. absolutely amazing! thats another game you have made me want to go and get

Lets face it, Microsoft Studios hasn't had well executed creative games like this since Jordan left and they ignored his pleas of making another game. The only games that were looking to be competent to be original since were cancelled as Microsoft demanded more and more changes and then shut it down. Microsoft, you didn't need to get all of those new Studios. You needed someone like Jordan, who still talks to your people, being able to push forward IP's again. You need creative competences again and see what greatness you had, and move forward on it.
Oh, so he's left Microsoft? I guess what he was saying in August 2017 about trying to get Microsoft to reboot the franchise didn't go as planned. Such a damn, damn shame. It's so far, but... I can only dream that one day, we'll have a great Crimson skies game on its way. I would even be satisfied with a fan-made remake of the first one at this point.
@@Nasfelia He actually left long long ago. But he still talks with them, and often when he has he would bring up the game.

There's rumblings of it maybe being a possibility. MEANWHILE. A similar game was made some years ago on PC you can find on STEAM. This game is simply called BOMB. A videogame named BOMB, that I have to specify clearly to make sure no one freaks out and thinks I'm making some kind of threat in today's knee jerk world, that has very similar vibes. It's not a perfect game by any means, but it may be a game you wish to check out.
@@Bangcat Well, thanks for the info. I really hope this will lead somewhere. I'm usually reserved toward nostalgia feelings but the PC Crimson Skies was one of my first game and still is one of my favourite nowadays. A reboot would be a dream come true as far as I'm concerned.
Dear Microsoft. No Crimson Skies or Bloody Roar? No buy. I made my decision I think. I don't think the HALO series is enough to bring me back anymore and sure as hell not Gears of War. Without Crimson Skies coming back, using an IP that's been wastefully laid by the way side WELL before it's time, I just don't think I want a new xbox. I'll wait till others get rid of an older one for dirt cheap where I can play the digital copy I bought of the last one, and wait. An open map world for sky pirates to fly in co op. That's the dream, that's what we need.
Jesus. I remember that was the game that came with my first Xbox Live subscription. I played the shit out of it with a friend who moved away over XBL. Good memories. It's way uglier than I remember...
God damn it.
This series's universe has SO much potential that it kills me to see it lying dead in the dirt. Absolutely stupid letting it go to waste like this.

Like the parade of infamy said. All that seems to await skypirates is a metal coffin. And crimson skies sadly ended up in one
