Combining 2 game franchises. Think Gears of war meets bioshock. There have been gust star appearances in games before, some better than others (Sonic and Mario at the olimpic games), but nothing taken to the degree where people have actually been satisfied.

What are some awesome game combinations you think should happen?

    Mass Effect and Jurassic Park.

    EDIT: Actually, Jurassic Park and Doom would be a ridiculously fantastic combination, in the right hands. Some completely arbitrary genetic fuckup results in a portal to Hell that possesses a bunch of Dinosaur clones and turns them into Satanic mutants.

    EDIT 2: Also, Barbie Horse Adventures and Clive Barker's Jericho.

    I wish someone would remake Trespasser. It really was just made in the wrong year. Imagine Trespasser with Penumbra's mechanics.

    Clearly someone needs to combine L4D and The Sims. Trying to live a normal family life in the midst of a worldwide zombie apocalypse. Keeping the house barricaded, waving flags on the roof to flag down supply helicopters, hunting squirrels for food, all while keeping your little simpeople happy, fed, hygienic, and well-rested.

    I really need to stop posting in this thread.

    Really though.

    Imagine a 4x, but you also have the option of taking any ship in space combat, including a single fighter, and fly it, and for ship takeovers you could take control over a marine and manually take it over.

    TPS/FPS for ship takeovers a la Titan mode in 2142, FPS/TPS Battlefield-esque battles for planetary conquest, maybe urban combat too, Tie Fighter/(I don't know any naval battelship simulators) for space combat, GalCiv/SEV for Governing/Overall strategy.

    With completely customizable ships/ground vehicles and an SEV style research tree.

    It would take a year to play a game but it would be so good

    There's more to marvel than the xmen, and there's more to capcom than street fighter.

    There's a reason they don't call "Mario Kart," "Nintendo Kart."

    Thank you, Unbreakable Vow! I couldn't remember who came up with that. I've been trying to think of how that could be done ever since you came up with that. I'm still at a loss though. :P

    Well, if anyone has the game Blast Works, you can check out my half-finished attempt and SHMUP meets Guitar Hero called "Blast Hero".

    Oh, and isn't there an Asterix & Obelix game that parodies practically everything under the sun? So much so that everyone thought there was no chance of it ever being released? I swear there were screenshots with Tetris blocks, the SoulCalibur sword, .......It was ridiculous.

    Space Empires/Master of Orion and X

    All that customization, all that freedom to design and build your stuff exactly as you freakin' feel like designing and building it, being able to sweep across the galaxy and take over planets and sectors, and being able to just drop down into a fighter or a single battleship and just go around and do shit amongst everybody else.

    I think that'd pretty muh be the ultimate 4X game right there. Make it all moddable as get with easy installment of user-created content and that'd pretty much make the game the entire fucking genre right there.

    EDIT: Of course. How could I forget?

    OBLIVION AND ROGUE!

    EDIT: And X-Com's R&D and organization management combined with Stalker-styled ground combat - with co-op - would be pretty damn groovy, too.

    Contra series with Super Mario Galaxy mechanics.

    Switch the star launchers that Mario uses to move from planet to planet with rockets that you clutch with one hand while firing your gun with the other, and you can finally take the fight to Red Falcon in their own galaxy!
