If you were a m/b illionaire....what game would you want to make?

[SLy AsymMetrY]

So, you're a bored fatcat and you've already bought your fast planes, trains and automobiles. You've still got money to burn and you want a 'little' pet project to tide you over until you get bored again.

Being a gamer (obviously), you decide to commission a famous company(s) to be the subject of your every whim. They reluctantly agree to your massive budget.

What i want to know is who you would pick and why. What type of game would it be. Also why.

I'll start. I'd pick Activision and Ubisoft. It'd be an FPS fusion of styles from COD and the Rainbow Six series of games. Infinity Ward would have seniority. Great 'gunplay' combined with squad/team-based gameplay.

BUT, i'd want it to be a firefighting fps. Instead of shooting to kill, you shoot to save. You'd shoot water and would alter the pressure for wide or narrow bursts depending on the situation. You'd also wield axes and crowbars. Drive fire trucks, control lifts and ladders. It would be set in a massive urban landscape with vertigo-inducing ladder climbs up massive buildings day and night. You could also command a squad, Rainbow Six style to fight fires, break down doors with axes as well as other means of support. It would have awesome fire-effects! Oh, and side missions to rescue cats stuck up trees! With the option to chop the tree down

I would have David Lynch make a game with the team at Ubisoft Montreal.

 

[RyVal]

The Batman villain game a la Yatzhee.
Because not only would it be the first "be the villain" game that actually let you, well, be the villain, but it would also be the greatest sandbox game ever.

 

[The Rockerfly]

Guitar hero into a online fighting game where two characters beat each other up and the person with the most awesome guitar solo wins

well i dont know wich company but i do have an idea for an awesome game:

Its an MMoFps, the world is a big dark forest. in the forest is scattered tiny cottages and mansions. the objective is to survive. youre armed with only a flashlight at the beginning starting in a random place in the forest. but theres something else out there, do you decide to team up or do you go alone? do you barricade or keep moving? Is that player to trust or is he going to kill you as soon as he gets a chance? its up to you.

I want a stealth game based on the Friday the 13th franchise. I play as Jason through various scenarios involving "horny teens being bad" and my missions involve dispatching them quickly and quietly until there is only one left.

Oh and each mission can only last 90 minutes. Jason simply cannot live longer than 90 minutes.

gears of war the strtegy game aha

excapt exactly how i imagine it ...it would take pages to describe it tho lol

 

[dark_taint92]

welll id commision 3d realms to make another duke nukem its needed
remake of land of the babes (hail to the king baby)
id also commision silicon knights to make another eternal darkness
that was a brilliant game (scared me senseless that game did) only game thats done that in ages

but seriously id commision epic games and bethesda soft work to make a hybrid rpg fps
like fallout 3 and gears of war 2
it would be based loosly on earth in europe
(cause its huge and wins) u would be able to go to different county all over europe (all of them)
and u would have to complete quests or missions to find artefacts to reconstruct this massivly powerful weapon of old (unoriginal i know) this could then be used for good or evil purposes ie saving the world destroying it tht sort of stuff

I would speak with Bethesda, ask (with money) to use their oblivion/fallout3 engine to create a sandbox town, (modern) and create a game with it where you stop the town from being overcome by aliens/greusome monsters/creatures.

 

[New Troll]

A game in memory of such franchises as Wizardry and Might & Magic but with the more modern gameplay of recent Bethesda games. Vast, open world where one could get lost and eventually find thier own little niche somewhere living the life they desire. Want to be lawful? Take over sheriffing a town somewhere or join a castle's defenses. Want to be bad? Start up you own little band of cut-throats or join a more mischievious guild. Just be careful, the badguys don't like goody-goodies and the the law doesn't tolerate illtent.

This could even be adapted into MMO form, but I'd probably prefer for it to stay single-player. Even though I'm uber-rich doesn't mean I desire to spend all my time in some game world, even if it's my own.

Well I'm not sure who'd I have make it but I'd want a stealth based F.P.S. in the same vain (sp?) as Splinter Cell but with un-linear levels, armed with a silenced pistol, a couple of smoke grenades (in case of emergency), a knife and maybe a couple of other useful gadgets. I'd like it to have various settings i.e. urban, woodland, harbours, factories etc. I would steal borrow ideas from other stealth games, for instance use a similar idea to Velvet Assassin's Left and Right views, (for a couple of specific parts of the game) have the clothes stealing part from Hitman, etc. I think most importantly the game would have to be immersive and tension building throughout leading to a awesome ending.

I'm not sure on the plot - maybe, drugs, gun smuggling on a global scale, just something that'd allow for lots of varied settings, counties and so on.
