A rogue squadron HD collection. That would be great. On all platforms.

B5 game.

B5 game!

Right, so, here's the thing: How would that actually work?

The essential elements of B5 can be summed up as ships shooting each other with wicked lasers, intruige and space jesus. This makes for an awesome space opera but the last 2 make for difficult game content.

You could take the Freelancer approach, with the playing touring around the Leauge of Non-Aligned worlds with the space of the major powers abutting it. The player could be running a freight or salvage company and would have to broker deals with the minor and major powers to persue profit, get better stuff and, as the story develops, react to galactic instability with the ultimate end game being taking a side and taking a stand.

Alternatively you could have a point and click adventure on B5. That would limit you to one story, but could be quite good fun as you could explore some other features of the B5 world.

Finally you could go for some manner of 4X/RTS in the mold of Pax Imperias or Crusader Kings.

What do you reckon?

I think giving it to Telltale could produce something interesting. What's great about B5 vs. other sci fi shows is that the cast isn't all important as demonstrated by how frequently the central cast came and went on the show. Also, the show allowed for a 1 million year timeline which is some great wiggle room for a story.

Another great show by the same writer/director that could make an engaging point and click game, is Jeremiah. I'm thinking add some Fallout/Xcom managing elements and you'll have yourself a classic.

I'd also love an over-the-top Machete game. I'd love to kill me some racist Texans!

Why has there only been one Judge Dredd game?

Hell it doesn't even have to be Judge Dredd; a turn-based-tactics XCOM/Syndicate alike in Mega City One/the Cursed Earth; with Judges. But then it just becomes Fallout.

There were the Judge Dredd games for the Stallone movie plus the fairly good "Judge Dredd: Dredd Vs. Death" FPS that I know of off the top of my head. I think there was also a crappy game for the Spectrum etc. but not sure.

To be honest, everything that ever existed ever was probably a crappy game for the Spectrum.

There's a Wombles spectrum (or possibly c64) game, for chrissakes.

Sucker Punch. In a horror videogame , silent hill style. If it was made in the same style of SH1-3, it would be amazing.

Actually, that is not a bad idea.

I didn't like the movie, but when I saw that scene of "we need to get and combine arbitrary item A, arbitrary item B and arbitrary item C before we can proceed with the story", all I could think of "somebody switched the script with the latest LucasArts adventure game..."

I watched it, and pretended it was a videogame. Using videogame logic it's a lot more enjoyable. Of course there is also movie bobs explination of the movie, which while enjoyable ( when he talks about it) was wayyyyhh over my head. I'm not that smart lol.

What if they took Princess Mononoke and made it into a tactical RPG with the mechanics of Valkyria Chronicles? They'd probably need to do some innovation for the nature faction, though since the animals can't wield firearms.

Thing is, Miyazaki would never allow that to happen. He found out about an unlicensed Nausicaa game that was a pretty basic sideways on rails shooter like R-Type, and he was appalled. Even if its in the vein of something more "tactical" he most likely would never allow it to happen.

OT: On the subject of Japanese animated films that I'd like to see as a game, I'd like it if they made a grim, layered game based on Akira. I know there was a pinball game based on it, but you know what I mean: with motorcycle combat, control of Tetsuo's psychic powers, etc. That would be awesome. And probably based on the manga, so there's more story to work with.

 

[Dandark]

A version of Skyrim that works with all mods and has no glitches or bugs. Maybe something more possible and likely like a miracle cure for every disease ever or the powers of God?

To add a serious suggestion I would say Dark souls 2. Most of what I have heard about it have pretty much elicited "Shut up and take my money!" from me and I can't wait for it. My only regret is that I have not been able to find a collectors edition, they were sold out everywhere I looked locally.

Good point about Miyazaki. He seems to be really attached to his works.

A Star Wars RPG where it's as big as Star Wars galaxy, but it's single player, and you can explore most of the know planets, and combine it with X-series style space combat. Instead we get star citizen which will end up being either too complex, or too simple.

I am an early adopter, I own a PS4. Yes I know there wasn't a strong launch title and there still aren't any good games for it yet. I am an optimist and I was very displeased with the "Let them eat cake" attitude of Microsoft. So here I sit, waiting for an awesome game to flex my PS4s muscles and watching "Pacific Rim" and I thought to myself "Why the hell is this not a game yet? Why am I not beating aliens to death in my own personalized giant robot?" So what movie/tv show have you been watching that you want to be playing instead?

I was thinking the same thing after seeing the trailer to "Pacific Rim". I had all kinds of chats and graphs on how it would work. Like I pictured it working like a keyboard heavy mech simulator where your jager would be kind of clunky but tactical. You would move slow and have to managed things like heat, power levels and ammo counts.

Personally, I want a Flash game (the superhero, I mean).

Think about it, he's practically MADE for a video game, namely an open-world game. Firstly, he's got a great travel ability already built in, and he can even use his speed to run up buildings or over water. Second, he'd work fantastic with an Arkham-style counter system for taking down thugs. Third, he's got a rogue's gallery that rivals Batman in sheer scope. I mean, you've got Captain Cold, The Trickster, Mirror Master, Weather Wizard, Reverse Flash, Captain Boomerang, Turtle Man, Abra Kadabra, etc. The list just goes on and on, people. Plenty of boss fight material.

Oh, and also, I'd like to see a Wreck-it Ralph videogame that DOESN'T suck (besides that 8-bit style game they made to promote the film).

The way I see a good B5 game going...

I'd use something similar to the Fallout 3/NV engine. Character creation, selection of skills, edges and hinderances, abilities, perks, and powers/racial abilities. FPS shooting and something similar to VATS for skill based stratgic turn-based combat. A faction system for more realistic role playing reactions (getting a Centauri to trust a Narn would be fairly difficult, while a human would have a much easier time of it.)

And for space flight or combat (for characters who could pilot a ship, it would probably be a skill or perk) a similar system. A freespace style cockpit view (and gameplay) with multiple HUD's and such... AND the same VATS style turn-based "pause" that would allow for commands and communication and chained skill-based manuvers and/or attacks.

The only real difficult thing would be story. It'd be pretty hard to program in enough story paths to correspond to all the possible character paths available to each race. For example, playing as a Minbari... it would be pretty difficult to explain exactly how you would get to the part of the story where you could join the B5 crew as a StarFury pilot. It would probably mean limiting character creation to 1 or 2 races which would each have different stories... which would still be cool, but kind of lame. Of course the company making the game could release more races and storylines as ongoing DLC... cha-ching.

I'd also like to mention a DMC style game in which Dante, Alucard from Castelvania: Symphony of the Night and Bayonetta team up to kick the ever-living shit out of whatever villian happens to be opposed to them.

I think I'd like that.
