LMNO would have been a Sweet Kick-Ass ET


...without that stupid little kid holding it down. 1UP has screens/action scene footage from Steven Spielberg's canceled foray into video games and judging from the production value of that 15 sec blip, this one was going to be amazing. Here's an excerpt from the 1UP article:

The point of LMNO was to basically take all the AI that would go into a normal Sims title, and compress that down into one character that could learn and remember and change the way you play the game on the fly, and not be totally scripted.

Since communication was non-verbal, Lincoln would be able to hand Eve items to heal her, give her additional abilities, etc., or gesture to her to show how he felt — to reward or discourage her. And if he treated her well and protected her from enemies, she would like Lincoln better and help out frequently, but if he left her to fend for herself, she would learn to fight for herself and not offer help as often. She could team up with Lincoln for cooperative attacks, or project things into his vision because she had the power to tap into his mind, so things like storm clouds would appear when she was in trouble.


And to answer badassdigest's Tinch, yes it would have been amazing.
