If you could make/force someone else to make any game you wanted, what would it be?

[Samfucius]

Seriously, any game ever. Whether it be an original game, a sequel (Duke Nukem Forever is one example. A lame, sure to be overused example, but an example nonetheless.), or a re-make.

Personally, I'm going for a Pickleman FPS. A good one. It would pretty much be Halo, but replacing all of the Covenant with characters from bad 80's movies, comics, and the like. All voices would be done by -Rog-. It would be the most hilarious game ever.

[executioneer]

master of magic 2

and fucking simtex has to make it none of this former intellivision employees bullshit

[Esuohlim]

I want a pokemon game where I don't need to buy $400 worth of other stuff to beat it.

Or other friends :tear

[RaNkeri]

rest of those Headfirst productions' Cthulhu games :(

[Fat_Hippo]

Fallout. Oh wait, that's already being made. Okay, Fallout being made by Black Isle. Oh right, that doesn't exist anymore. Next best thing then, Fallout being made by Bioware. Yep.

[ElPila666]

A sequel for PSONE's LSD, like LSD 2 The Trip Continues for PS2, were you can experience real acid trips and walk throght crazy places, then every stage have a differemt hallucinated drug like mushrooms, heroin, netherland weed, alcohol why not, etc, etc. And the music must be groovy too, it should make you experiment upper, downer and screamer feelings, it must be played on first person, where you can see your arms when you hit you with heroin, and you could trip out if you look yourself into a mirror. Nice.

[10,000 Volt Ghost]

A new BoF. Is it too much to ask?

[MLE]

I want a new F-Zero game.

[Guitar Woman]

I'd remake Silent Hill 2 so that it actually had a script

[Emu]

you didn't even beat it asshole

[ElPila666]

:lol

[Guitar Woman]

I watched the rest of the cutscenes on Youtube, and every character continues being a completely gay and boring cardboard cutout. It'd be fine if it were actually scary, but the only part that got to me was the uncensored pillow smothering scene, and that didn't even make it into the game.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0f1C6CckWTs

Angela's easily the best character, and that isn't saying much

[GADZOOKS]

MOTHER 3 IN ENGLISH! WOOOOOO!

[Esuohlim]

MOTHER 3 IN ENGLISH! WOOOOOO!

Oh yeah, this. Everything else in the world can be put on hold until this is done. >:

[Zomboid]

I check the fan translation site every day :(. They're getting closer and closer but fuck it's taking forever.

[Dr. Boogie]

Painkiller 2. I enjoyed the first one, and I'd like to see a real sequel. Not some crappy expansion or, for the love of god, a fan-made expansion that's being sold for the price of a full game.

[argonath]

The next Oddworld game in the "quintology." I wish Oddworld Inhabitants would do something. Make a movie, go back to games, do webisodes...anything, Christ.

Since Konami is still making 2D Castlevania games for handhelds, a next-gen console 2D Drac-fest is runner up.

[darkvare]

crackdown 2 i don't know why people don't like it just add a story and bam!!!! awesome game

[King Hadas]

I don't know if maybe deep down inside I'm just making a rather lame leap of logic here from Star Wars to Star Trek but I wish Bioware would do something with the Star Trek license or somebody else do something more story driven with it rather than just another turn-based strategy game. Not to sound like a dork or anything but boy oh howdy do I like Star Trek.

[liquidstatik]

a mmorpg thats not the same as the other 2452522, and runs on linux ;<

[Fat_Hippo]

Hey liquidstatik, I got one: An MMORPGFPS. Sounds ridiculous, I know, but I think that if somebody did it right, it would KICK ASS! Think Stalker, but if all stalkers were played by players, except for a couple of shopkeepers and the like. Never gonna happen, I know, but who said the wishes had to be realistic.

[Guitar Woman]

I thought that's what Tabula Rasa was?

[Sam]

MOTHER 3 IN ENGLISH! WOOOOOO!

I AGREE WITH THIS, AND I BELEIVE IT IS THE ONLY CORRECT ANSWER TO THIS THREAD. >:

Man, that would blow cause star trek totally sucks.

[Fathom Zero]

There was an RTS-FPS-RPG out there, I think it's called Primal or something. It was some two-syllable name.

But it was really, really cool.

EDIT: found it. Savage: http://kotaku.com/345958/s2-games-unleashes-savage-2

Holy shit, there's a closed beta for Linux, too.

[EisigerBiskuit]

A game that sort of plays out like the multiplayer mode in Perfect Dark where you were able to be a henchman. Start out as a lowly grunt defending and exterminating would-be heroes, making my way all the way up to evil mastermind.

and apparently, the first one is free now?

[Fat_Hippo]

Fathom Zero: I've heard about that one, but didn't realize it was also an RPG. I really was thinking something closer along the lines of Stalker if it were an MMO, with no RTS elements either.

Guitar Hero: While Tabula Rasa has Shooter Elements in it, I think it's combat still has you locking onto enemies and stuff like that, so that's not really a Shooter-Rpg.

[Fathom Zero]

The first one definitely had RTS elements in it. And I didn't know it was free.

EDIT: Well whadayaknow, it's freeware and runs on Linux.

Obviously Savage 2 looks a lot prettier, but I dunno how you could go wrong with free.

[Fat_Hippo]

Well I'm convinced. I'll try it out.

Edit: Nice, fast server. I should have it wwithin 10 minutes.

[Kitsa]

I'd love for Battle Royale (1, not 2, 2 sucked ass..and I'm referring to the Japanese movie where all the teenagers have to kill each other) to be made into some sort of game. I think someone made it into an RPG, but it doesn't count.

Well, I'm downloading the first one :o

I'll have to wait for a linux client to try the second one, it doesn't seem to run well in wine :x

[liquidstatik]

oh wtf i dont feel like installing a million libraries >:
ill just wait for the savage 2 client, it's 'right around the corner' >:

[Fathom Zero]

Pussy. Throw caution to the wind and make it uninstallible.

[McClain]

I'd have someone make Dynasty Warriors an MMO.

[Hangie]

a pokemon MMO damnit

[RaNkeri]

Oh, how bout an FPS that takes place during WW2 and you play as an axis soldier? >:

Too bad making a game like this requires a skin made out of asbestos and balls size of water melons :(

[Dr. Boogie]

Yeah, or just the ability to mod Half Life

[Jeff The Ninja]

A supervillian Game. Think GTA meets Fable meets Hulk: Ultimate Destruction and you get the idea.

You start off as a Lowly Pursesnatcher, you steal more shit, do more crime, and depending on your stats and choices, you gain your own superpowers. Walk into that biogenetics lab and get attacked by a radioactive squid, then you gain the powers of a squid. Get a shock of Powerful electromagnetic electricity! BAM! Instant Magneto! Spend a lot of time reading and building up your Intelligence, you can build your own machines, or become psychic and use your ESP to punish your foes! You can even combine superpowers, as long as its not fatal. Imagine a armor plated, half man-Half squid with superpowers destroying New York.

You can even play the game in different ways. Depending on what happens, you can even keep a low profile on your powers. If you have no deformities or they are minimal, you could remain in society by day and rain havok on the city by night. Or, if you are hideously deformed, you can live in the sewers or other place out of sight and wait for the moment to strike.

The challenge in this game, SuperHeroes of course. How bad you become affects the quality of the foe. A purse Snatcher would at most fight the pathetic Gnatman and a Planet Threatening destroyer would fight a legion of superheroes. Each with powers as different as the ones you can obtain. You could even wind up fighting a good version of yourself.

[Fathom Zero]

Wow, you people sure are picking winners here.

[Jeff The Ninja]

Chojin, i already know of city of villians, Im thinking of a Singleplayer non MMO rpg that. Think Oblivion.

[Fathom Zero]

Overlord!

[Chojin]

i just can't wait until the day someone makes a shooting game from the shooter's perspective, you know?

like, you could just walk around and shoot things and it would look like you're really doing it :eek

of course they would have to rate it AO in case some kids get ideas.

[GADZOOKS]

I want a game where you can jump on shit.

[Chojin]

maybe a table tennis simulator

it doesn't even have to be very good

[stitchfan626]

i would love to see Snatcher re-released for the DS, the whole shooting concept would be really useful with the touchscreen

[Kilgore Cod]

I'd like to see a direct sequel to Final Fantasy: Mystic Quest. COMON Square-Enix, that cash cow is sitting right under your nose!

[Zomboid]

I'd love to see a game where you walk through the streets as a tough guy beating on punks and at the end of every area, there's a large punk who sometimes has a weapon.

[Pub Lover]

I'd love to see a game that told me I wasn't wasting my life, and that gave me hugs, and somes... made cakes?

I don't mind if the plot involved robots. :(

[Sam]

I'd love to see a game where you walk through the streets as a tough guy beating on punks and at the end of every area, there's a large punk who sometimes has a weapon.

Zomboid knowing you, I'm sure that large punk would pack some serious heat! You'd probably put some WACKY ideas into a game like that! Like breaking open a phone booth or a table and finding a bag of money inside, OR MAYBE EVEN A WHOLE ROASTED CHICKEN! :lol

How do you feel about the concept of being able to select from three characters: a quick guy who's weak, and average joe/joan (an all around character), and a strong but slow guy.

[Guitar Woman]

how about a game where you post hilariously sarcastic comments on an internet community

[Zomboid]

How about a sims type game where you play as an angst filled 16 year old who hates their parents, wishes they had friends, and pretends to be someone else online. When your angst bar is completely filled, you can transform into a transvestite internet warrior. Your enemies: good taste. Your weapons: wii peripherals. Along the way you can even gain NPC allies. All based on very funny internet memes!

Pleeeeeeeeease, someone make this game! :D

PS - SAM I LOVE THAT IDEA!!!! WE SHOULD START MAKING IT ASAP.

[Guitar Woman]

How about a game where you are a world class douche who is convinced that there is an internet conspiracy against him, but the big plot twist is that there actually isn't

[Chojin]

i think that game was called 'postal'

[BLEU]

Another Tomba game. And a new Splatterhouse.

[Dr. Octogonopus]

A FPS with the physics/ accuracy of half-life, with the same sci-finess, the plot telling and multiplayer of halo (like how epic they can make the campaign), and weapons on par with Resistance, Painkiller, etc. Also, throw in some horror elements of Silent Hill. Pull it off right, and you have the best (FPS) game ever.

[Pub Lover]

A game where the protagonist has an anxiety disorder, so getting him to do even simple tasks is frustratingly difficult.

[executioneer]

hahah WILLIE THE GAME :(

Pull it off right, and you have the best (FPS) game ever.

Take away the "sci-finess" and "plot telling", and you have Painkiller.

But Silent Hill horror in a sci fi setting? Part of the horror in Silent Hill is derived from the fact that it takes place in a familiar, terrestrial setting.

[Fathom Zero]

The Silent Hill in a sci-fi setting makes me kind of think of that Lifeline game for the PS2 where you have to talk the chick through a space hotel. Or System Shock.

[executioneer]

oh hey yeah, system shock 3, none of this bioshock bullshit

[Dr. Octogonopus]

Well, I mean like the way Silent Hill constantly screws around with your mind, but give it a more sci-fi depiction. like instead of supernatural monster... things, maybe something closer to the lines of what Gears of War was, like a science fiction even taking place, and giving birth to shit scary monsters. Like how the resonance cascade worked; it used science to make monsters!

[executioneer]

sort of a event horizon: the game, maybe?

[Dr. Octogonopus]

Very similar, actually!

[Dr. Boogie]

So really, you don't want a sci fi Silent Hill. You just want a sci fi game with SH-esque imagery, rather than its theme of having a normal place that spontaneously becomes an evil version of itself.

[BurntToShreds]

A sequel to Breakdown. It was an FPS made by Namco (The Japanese? Making and FPS? Unheard of). The entire game is in first person, even the cutscenes. And you hardly use guns in the last 3/4'sof the game. You actually fight people. With your fists. In first person. Also, when you have to pick stuff up, open a door, or climb up a ladder, it actually shows you reaching for the item/door/ladder. You get superpowers that appear later in the game. Throwing energy projectiles, jumping really high, and even slowing down time. Tell me that wouldn't make for a great game. Hell, I would at least settle for the main character, Derrick Cole, to appear in Tekken 6 or Soul Calibur IV.

[Fathom Zero]

I see Breakdown in bargain bins all the time. Shame, really.

I would say Red Faction 3, but that doesn't count 'cause it's already coming out.

[Dr. Octogonopus]

That seems pretty much the same to me. But, sure, sounds great.

[Chain-So-Matic Zombies]

A REAL final fight game or a 3d remake of the original one (and not that crap title "Streetwize")

[stitchfan626]

i got another one, Streets of Rage 4. i don't care if it's in 3D or in classic 2D, just make it. by the way, there's one more thing: have Yuzo Koshiro do the music.

[Phoenix Gamma]

Take Kingdom Hearts (ew.) Now take out the fruity Final Fantasy shit, and throw in something dark and twisted like Shin Megami Tensei. Now replace Disney with some Warner Brothers stuff (Batman the Animated Series and all that stuff they put out in the 90's.)

It'd be really dark, and it'd involve something other than "Press X To Win".

[T-Rex]

A First Person Pisser on the Wii. You use the Wii remote to take a piss into a virtual toilet on a moving ship. You lose points for missing the loo. I'd call it Wee.

I like, but you need to throw in targets, like floating cigarette butts, bugs, graffiti, etc.

[stitchfan626]

i was thinking about something like that, only it would be like Major League Eating, but it's Beer Drinking and then taking a piss. (But of course, if nintendo got criticized for Manhunt 2, i would think that both MADD and Jack Thompson would have a fit over a game involving beer drinking and urination)

[BurntToShreds]

A game based around the Cthulhu Mythos, except that, instead of following one character's story, you'd have multiple chapters to go through. I know it sounds a lot like Eternal Darkness, but it would be an FPS like Dark Corners of the Earth. The stories would be such things as:

-Exterminating Herbert West's zombie horde.

-Roaming through the mountains in Vermont, having an occasional encounter with the Mi-Go (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mi-Go).

-Eradicating cultists and their leaders.

The horror elements would be more psychological, such as background noise, or oh-shit-they're-following-me moments.
