Ideas that really should be turned into Games


PWNED

Have you ever had an idea that made you think; Wow, Now that would make an awesome game? I know that I have so I've decided to start a thread about what would make awesome games.

A perfect example of a great game idea would be another version of Suikogaiden which would focus on the backstory of either Flik or Viktor from Suikodens 1 and 2. The two were personal favourites of mine but their stories are practicully shrouded with mystery to a certain extent. Who else wants to see what happened between Suikodens 1 and 2 for these two characters.

My other one would probably be a little minigame on the explaned game which would be similar to the Duel system in the Suikodens but improved by adjusting where abouts the attack is targeted or how much stamina is used. Yes, I know that these are not exactly my made-up games but they would be nice for someone else to make.

I really would like to see a X-Men Legends type game with characters from all over the Marvel Universe. I love those simple yet suprisingly deep beat-em-ups. If you want to, you can just mash the punch button, or you can come up with complex battle plans using different powers to complement each other. And we got a hint of this with Iron Man in X Men Legends 2. But I want more. Think about it. Just changing the skins of some of the characters would put you really close to the Marvel guys.

Spiderman could be a very Toad esc character, since Toad in the game was ridiulously strong, but in the comics....well....he's a toad. Hulk, obviously Juggernaut or Colossus. Captain America, Cyclopse with some attack power. Hawkeye, Gambit with arrows. There are tons of them, and I think this would make a sweet game.

Naruto games....

I wish there was a game of Naruto, called "Konaha Legends" . A sim type Make your own Ninja game, where you live the life of your own created ninja, fight baddies, pass Ninjutsu tests, and unlock mysteries...

Sasuke game. I want a Sasuke RPG.

FMA Sim type game. Make your own Alchemist, choose his / her abllities, upgrade, do whatever you want.

LOL. Hmmm..I wish...

[SIZE=1]Interesting, most interesting.

Well personally I'd love to see a great Star Wars game set outside the RPG genre, I mean there's no denying that KOTOR and it's sequel are great games but I'd just love to get a little more direct control over the action. I suppose basically I'd love to see a Star Wars game set over the game mechanics developed by Lionhead with Fable. I mean the Jedi Knight series is probably the best non-RPG there is out there and while it's good, it's not great or at least it could have been much better. In the same manner that KOTOR feels constricting, JK feels too open and obvious, i.e. kill the bad guys and reach the end level.

What you need is an entire world or more favourable several worlds to explore and get your Jedi backside involved in. In Fable you have the opportunity to really feel like a part of a world without it seeming too RPG in nature, a very pleasant mix of the fast-paced combat of an action game and the wonderful rich storytelling and character development of an RPG. The ability to go from being a Padawan to eventually becoming a Jedi Master and actually influencing the Galaxy for the better, or the worse given the opportunity.[/SIZE]

Nice idea Gavin, I found KOTOR to be an entertaining play but I agree that it felt a bit linear for an RPG so the combination of Fable and KOTOR would work out well.

Have you ever played Star Wars Battlefround? Or its sequal? The first one was really fun, but you were still kissing the bad guys to pass the level (there's another way as well). But it really is a fun game. My sister and I arn't big SW fans, but we played this game for HOURS. It gets kinda monotonis after a while, because there are only X amout of levels, but you really should try playing it (if you haven't already).

[FONT=Comic Sans MS][SIZE=1][COLOR=Navy]Heh heh.... I've had an answer to this question for sometime now.

My idea that I thought would be a great game is that there should be a Final Fantasy fighting game, where you can play as Leon, Cloud, Sephiroth, Aeris, Rinoa, Sora, Riku and everyone else that was in the FF series that you would want to play as. You could customize their costume colors and their weapons,which would be totally awesome because you could give Sephiroth a rubber chicken and he could still kick your a**.
Also, you can pick your backgrounds and play in different areas that you would recognize when you were playing that game; like Midgar, for example.

I just had that thought for a long time and thought that it would be a really cool fighting game[/COLOR][/SIZE].[/FONT]
