If it were real....

[Fadills]

Ok, pick one thing that you thought "Man that would be cool if it were real" from any TV Show, comic book, video game, etc. and explain about it in a couple sentences.



The only rule is it must not be real already.



My thought is what if the Digimon duel system were real. It would be cool to have real, giant-sized monsters fight each other from cards that you place on a device attached to your arm. And I guess you would die a little inside after having lost 2000 life points, but it would still be cool.

Has anyone seen the movie Equilibrium? That society could be perfect if the authorities were not corrupt and made the same sacrifices with everyone else. A society where genders and races were equal, where no religions or ideologies would agitate people and where lust, greed and fear would not govern us, would be great.

Actually, that would probably suck.

Here I go again, arguing with myself. I seem to have two minds about everything.

I believe that's called schizophrenia, Mr. Finnished.

A holodeck. I have come to the conclusion that if one were invented, crime would drop. Psychotics, druggies and other people of questionable sanity would now be able to have simulated experiences that would prevent harm to the world. Of course, we won't notice, all being too busy in a Dead Rising simulation.

Magic. Is there any reason to explain this?

Awesome weapons. Nothing in particular, just those sorts of weapons that you see and think, "Man, that's so awesome."

MMORPG-style skill system. Think about it. You'll just be bowling, and all of a sudden, 'Ding! Level up!' You can now use mithril bowling balls and have access to the Doom Striker spell.

Then again, everyone'll roll shammies...

And I would have a chainsaw hand from Evil Dead. Chainsaw gun from Gears of War. Chainsword from 40k. And any other chainsaw based objects.

Don't forget the chainsaw nunchuks from Dr. Mcninja!

And here I thought it was only a slight case of schizoid personality disorder with some depression. Oh well, I'll just add it to my list.

And yeah, chainsaws are nice, although I've only used them to make firewood.

How about the Animus in Assassin's Creed? It would do everyone good to live through their ancestor's lives. It would probably prevent some delusions of grandeur, overgrown egos and repeated mistakes. I bet there is an abundance of embarrassing and even heinous stuff in everyone's pedigree charts.

It would also make you pretty careful, since your offspring could find out everything you ever did.

Personally, I'd pick Lum, from Urusei Yatsura.

Then, Jean-Luc and Deanna Troi from TNG.

Jean-Luc would adopt Lum and I, and utilize the Genesis machine to transform an uninhabited world into a giant, endless ocean with a single floating island. We'd all live together happily, living off fish and plants, and then go mad from B12 deficiency.

...

I'm so sad and alone.

Save Points!

There have been so many times in my life where I wish I could have saved just before I did/said something/someone stupid, then I could re-load and probably do/say exactly the same thing/person all over agian...

 

[defcon 1]

the Matrix, but with video games!

 

[Colodomoko]

Time shouldn't be tamperd with, I mean c'mon now that would be the worst considering you can cause a paradox or destroy a legacy! other then that, great ideas.

 

[ShadeOfRed]

-SWORD-CHUCKS! Just as dangerous to you as your assailant!
-Magic. Not the power of magic, one correct spelling of it. How many are there? 12?
-You know that animated piece of paper Malfoy threw at Harry in one of the movies? That. I thought it was the coolest thing ever.

to expand on your idea Quicksaves, man i would LOVE quicksave/quickload abilities sometimes

 

[BaronAsh]

Pokeballs I would so totally catch my little brother and keep him in there forever.

 

[Alphavillain]

Invisibilty. Every time.

 

[Kogarian]

That Yugi-Oh (spelling?) maze, where you stick down a card and make the monster holograms move where ever you wanted them to.

I can, however, tell you what would not be cool. Halo 3 warfare. Can you imagine real soldiers having tons of ineffective weapons, yet still be prepared to die for no apparent cause? And the only effective means of killing each other is being ran over by a vehichle or being beat to death with the butt of a gun...a battlefield where someone across the map would actually be like, "Oh snap, that guy has a shotgun. Better run over there and try to club him."

 

[MasterExploder]

I would love to be able to change into Gitaroo Man.

 

[cravethought]

I'd have to say a lightsaber and the force.

Either that or super-speed.

 

[Mstrswrd]

The ability to bend-time, like Prince of Persia style, but on a grander scale. Like jumping through time and stuff. Awesome.
