    Someone mentioned a wild west MMO...

    Better yet, a Firefly MMO.

    Where Reavers could randomly show up in a city (or heck, you could PLAY as a reaver) and just start laying waste to the towns people. As you progress, you could start uncovering all the crazy secrets floating around that universe, and then Believers (which perhaps also could be played at higher levels) could start hunting you down.

    Just think about it.

    Some ideas are too pure and beautiful for MMOs, because asshats will ruin them.

    Oh wow... Where do I get started?
    FFVII Remake
    Mega Man 9
    Mega Man Legends 3
    Super Mario RPG 2 (for real this time)
    Chrono Trigger 2
    Chrono Cross 2
    Secret of Evermore 2
    Castlevania: SOTN sequel
    a 3D castlevania that doesn't suck
    Actraiser 3
    Sonic Adventure 3
    Killer Instinct 3
    Wizardry 9
    A game where you get to play as Will Smith
    A Mega Man game that actually shows you a transition to the next series
    An actual sequel to Final Fantasy Tactics
    Megalomania 2
    Shingen the Ruler 2
    Shenmue III
    Pilotwings Wii
    Capcom Vs. SNK 3
    3D remakes of all the 2d mario games a la new SMB
    World Heroes 3
    X-Men: Mutant Apocalypse 2

    OK I'm done now... The list goes on though
    After much research (basically just a google search for "world heroes 3"), I've gathered that World Heroes 3 DOES exist. The only problem is...... World Heroes wasn't really a very good game..... I was only saying it to be funny. It's just a big rip off of street fighter honestly

    A true Robotech mecha simulator. Flying from the the cockpit with realistic (or as realistic as possible) flight models, particularly in fighter mode. Missions would take place in space and in atmosphere. The space missions would be more dogfight/scramble to fend off an attack oriented, the atmosphere missions would be more ground support oriented.

    The game would include four campaigns and give you access to mecha of all three series with missions flown in the Valkyrie, the Excalibur, the Gladiator, the Southern Cross Hovertank, the Cyclone, the Alpha, and the Beta. The fourth campaign would be either the Sentinels story or the Shadow Chronicles stuff. Other mecha would be unlockables with which you could fly unlockable missions or you could substitute into previous missions. Online play would be deathmatch style with mecha of the human, zentraedi, Robotech Masters, and the Invid all available.

    I have 2 games I want to exist but never will.

    First, I want a game based on the Princess Bride. I picture a game that plays similar to Zelda as an adventure - but a full fighting game built in similar to Soul Calibur for the swordfights.

    Second, I want someone (EA would be perfect) to put the money into making a true Legends of Wrestling game. We all know that there are a ton of us that only buy wrestling games to make old guys from when we were little, Acclaim got that there was a market, now someone has to make the game good. EA would be great as they actually have money, are used to dealing with sports titles, and they did publish Def Jam Vendetta which had phenominal gameplay.

    On a related note, how many more years do you think it will be until MODding and programming tools become easy enough to use for some of these games to be made easily?

    I'd laugh if in 10-15 years, all these get made by MODders. How often does tech double in Moore's Law?

    Temple of Elemental Evil: Tactics.

    No story, quests, nothing outside of the usual SRPG fare, except done entirely with the ToEE combat system. I would kill someone for this game.

    Ah, great idea. Though I'd settle for them just making ToEE, but... good. It's such a shame that combat system is wasted.

    Besides, Battletech is supposed to be about strategy, not phat lewt


    Salvage and C-Bills, my good man. :D

    well, what I mean is that, (ignoring clantech) sure, there are some extremely powerful mechs out there, but there is nothing uber about anything in Battletech. 100 ton mechs can be beaten by much lighter mechs if you have a good enough strategy and otherwise outwit the other guy. (or of course, get a lucky headshot)

    That's what I like about the game, doesn't matter if I've been playing for 10 years and the guy I'm about to fight is a raw noob. Unlike other games, that isn't a guarantee that I'll beat him. He could get a lucky headshot. Or even though he has less experience, he can still outsmart me and get me to expose my weak armor to hits..etc

    There is no Pulse Laser of God-Slaying +10 that does a thousand points of damage, weighs half a ton and generates zero heat and has a 50 hex range

    As long as they stayed even semi faithful to the tabletop game, you can't macro in some winning strategy

    So even if you had all the salvage and C-Bills in the inner sphere, you can still get beaten. I love that.

    You know what I really want?

    I want Panzer Dragoon 4 (or 5, if you want to count Saga as part of the main PD line) on the Wii with ponter controls. I'm sure, at some point, eventually, we'll get an on rails shooter for the Wii, but using the Bird in the Twilight Relm in Twilight Princess has me stoked for some Panzer Dragoon action.

    A sequel to Rush 2049 (i.e. that obscure Dreamcast/N64 game).


    I've still yet to play a racing game with race tracks that can even compare. Also, I would give red meat just to get some mp3s of the console version of the songs.

    I've been searching for them for years, and still can't find jack shit.

    An epic rpg/beat em up based on the TV show MONKEY! So instead of having graphics trying make demons and swords and armour look like realistic demons swords and armour they'd look like realistic guys in costumes and realistic papier mache. And generally try and stick to the show as much as possible, so there would be ZERO syncing of the lips to the voices etc.

    It would be awesome just to see them try and make graphics as realistic as possible while trying to make them look fake at the same time :lol:


    Also some Sci-fi games using the gameplay from Full Spectrum Warrior. Having that game but with a team of 40k space marines would be pretty awesome. Either that or a Stargate SG-1 game using the same gameplay.

    Donkey Kong Country 4.

    (Rare)

    The first three were amazing, and I'd love to play another one. The only platform it could come out on and luckly would be the best for it, is the DS. It would be awesome if they still kept the visual style, made it a huge game, had co-op over download play and added mini-games.

    Can't think of any other games at the moment.

    Asheron's Call 3 by a collaboration between Turbine and Nippon Ichi.

    Dragon Quest Online by the original Ultima Online team.
