    Hi guys!Realtech need you!!!

    Help us select a title for our next game...

    -The game is a 3d beat em up.
    -Some level sidescroll(like vigilante or kunfu master), other are more like an Arena(like Ik+ or streetfighter)
    -The game feature RPG element with a levelup system (unlock new move and ability)
    -Fully customisable character (look and fighting style)
    -use of melee weapon

    Without revealing too much of the story I can say, that u play a street thug/fighter and you follow him around the world on his rise to become a true fighter.

    [​IMG]

    A tech demo of the game is available in [app]iron fist boxing[/app] prestige edition <only 3gs>

    Also, please note the game is set to pay homage to game such as vigilante, final fight, doubledragon and movie like bloodsport, deathwish, rumble in the bronx, etc...stuff from the late 80's early 90's so we are looking for cliche...

    however other name ideas are welcome too...

    the voting is now closed...WE PICKED BROTHERHOOD OF VIOLENCE...

    How about Musculara? The titles you mention above sound kind of cliche'd, not that mine is better! ;)
    No "Other" option in the poll?

    The names you have are kind of cliche'd, but if you go with one of them I think you should use 'The Fight Club'.

    Ok well Dim Mak does not sound like anything I have heard of before but if you are going for cliche's than by all means "Fight Club"!
    Edit: I voted Fight Club

    Any game with the word "Brotherhood" is bound to be epic.

    Well that's cool. If you wanna do a foreshadowing thing go with 'Dim Mak', but as my post above implies i already voted for 'The Fight Club'. Either of those two would be good.

    If I may suggest, please DON'T go with "The Fight Club" or especially "Fight Club". You'll get called out as capitalizing on the very popular book/movie of the same name. You want to be unique. You already have a nice fan base who realize that you've created the best boxing/mma game in the app store, and I think you risk alienating some people who will see the game as trying to piggyback onto a successful franchise. Based on what I've seen/heard, the other suggestions are OK, but here's one nice cheesy suggestion:
    "The Sacred Fist". Does it mean anything? Absolutely not, but neither did a lot of the titles of those 70's movies you talked about. It just sounds cool.

    Totally agree!....DO NOT USE FIGHT CLUB....you will be crucified. I feel "fist" should be in the title..."blood fist"...or "Path of the Iron fist" something like that.

    Black belt IS a amazing game! i use to love it as a kid...
    Our game is kind of similar to that but less linear, and with a lot of customisation.

    I must say i kind of agree with you!

    The fightclub is probably my least favorite of all, but if you look at the result of the poll it s by far the most popular too :(

    Seem that people always go for something they already know is popular.

    We ask about the title of this new game just because our previous game was pretty unpopular/unknow and for all the time we spend on it we would like the next game to be a bit more succesfull.

    I agree that IF is criminally underrated. It's truly an amazing game. I wish you guys nothing but success on your next game (even if it's called Fight Club ;))

    Why don't you create an official Iron Fist resource site (videos, reviews, etc) and link it in your sig ? :)
