Ok I have been playing zombie games for years and I think we need to decide on a new plot device. I am also Tired of Nuclear fallouts so I found a website that should help you with decideing a new good plot point that you would love to play.

I was Picking my choice and I like the Idea of this star that Will collide with ours in 1.4 million years from now. This is actual fact. Think about it. Its the future and the world is going crazy now that this star is going to hit us. I think it would create some intense moments since there is a countdown to beat the game before you eventually die. Like in pikmin.

But here is the link if you dont know any good ones: http://www.exitmundi.nl/exitmundi.htm

Enjoy!

How 'bout a disease where man get suicidal and people have to run from it.

Come to think of it, that's the plot from the Happening.
Come to think of it, it turned out to be an awful awful idea/movie (well the basis was good... people killing themselves... but come on, fucking trees killed everyone?)

I'm all for mothers all of a sudden birthing zombie babies... well not birthing, but the babies eat their way through the mother to escape.

I'm personally partial to the Children of Men apocalypse, where every woman on Earth suddenly goes sterile.

Although for an original idea, I would say magnetic storms suddenly appearing randomly on the earth, shorting out electrical equipment and tearing metal to shreds would be intriguing.

I didnt see the movie but Now I must know how trees kill people.

On the second Line that is the most horrible thing I have ever heard.

Imagine you are walking home on a normal day...and all of the shadows in the corner in your eye are suddenly wielding blades because all along they have been (dun dun da dun) NINJA's from the future!

YES!


What about mass anarchy?
People blowing up everything and rebels shooting everyone.
Not the quick solution of a nuke, but the slow degradation of society.

Mankind has just developed its first completely functional terraforming device, which in theory can be used to repair the damage that we've done to the world. Something goes terribly wrong, however, and the device backfires, causing the planet to suffer climate changes and tectonic shifts at an alarmingly rapid and unpredictable rate. Panic instills itself in the world's populace, anarchy ensues, and all the while the Earth is slowly dying, perhaps ending up quite like this:

How about a meteor is gonna destroy the world in a month, the world ignites in anarchy, the complete collapse of civilization and unbridled hedonism, and some dude has to fight his way across the US to be with his family in his final moments.

And he has like two weeks to pull that shit off.

Or turn the main character into an attractive woman so desperadoes and the inevitable wasteland-roaming bandits have a reason to be attacking her.

Yeah, and like every playthrough could be unique because of a rapidly changing environment.

How about a game where you dobn't have to save the world. You do stuff like a normal RPG, just with a less extreme plot. Kinda like the new 007 movie. A plot that is more bad stuff is going down, fix it, but if you don't the whole world won't spontaneously combust.

Damn, I wanted it to be a mini-earth so I could jump hundreds of feet, mind the lava.
Oh, you can. Put short, obvious sarcasm is obvious. I just used Spore for a model because I delight in using weaponized terraforming against enemies, and it's the only thing I have to model planets with. And you've got to admit, that looks rather kickass.

Oh yes, collapsing their atmoshpere quailty to T0 is rather fun. Too bad Spore quickly turns into a shit heap at ages 3, 4 and 6.

So, a futuristic Majoras Mask?

I'd personally like to see more revolving around the Steam-Punk concept. That or just buy independent games. :p
