What game would you make/re-make?
For any reason what so ever, maybe there was a game you were really disappointed with, a game that was never made etc.
Reasons would be good as well.

I would make a Buffy game, there was only one or two made, and were talking about 10 or so years ago, so they weren't exactly ever going to be great.
I think it could have a lot of potential, play through the game in various ways, you could be the slayer, or the watcher, or Spike/Angel etc. Would be a mix of action/adventure and horror. I think if a Buffy game was made today, it would be pretty good... But thats obviously not going to happen :( Maybe a Supernatural game


P.S Sorry if there is already a thread like this one....

Warlords II.

Dunno how many hours me and my mates played that game.

Multiplayer, 8 guys duking it out on one computer.

None of this new fangled LAN or internet gaming ;p

I myself would take components of other games an combine them together, may seem cheap but I feel they would work well together.

I can't remember what parts exactly off hand atm, but I will remember at some point haha.

Seven Kingdoms, all attempts at sequals were horrid.

I would make, Left 4 dead 3, Half life 2 episode 3, Remake resident evil 4 with Co-op. and make a 40k FPS.

Pretty much every game that consoles ruined (ie every game published on consoles) but if I limit myself to a game from 2011 I would pick Dead Island.
-more zombies (no more suffering from silly memory limitations)
-better lod (this is so bad that it is glitchy)
-removal act 3 and 4 (and replacing it with something better)
-aimbot away (I can aim by myself thank you)
-no special zombies (what is this l4d?)
-various game balance fixes
-mod tools

"Special" people that think their better than everyone else?

Space Marine 2: Grey Knights

Master of Magic 2: The Magicking

For those of you unfamiliar with MoM. Take Civ 2, put in a fantasy setting, races with different abilities, and a magic system and you have MoM. Great game that deserved a sequel but for whatever reason, hasn't gotten one.

-TES VI: Summerset Isle
-TF 3

STALKER with the entire Zone in one seamless map and improvement to the A-Life system, along with some minor gameplay tweaks.

I'd probably choose Godzilla: Unleashed to re-design. I love Kaiju games and I love brawlers or the occasional wrestling game, so G:U should really appeal to me. Unfortunately, the game sports low production values, antiquated design choices and a general feel that the developers phoned the effort in. Given my druthers, I'd work out a faster paced, casual friendly Kaiju brawler with controls that trace their lineage to AKI's old WCW games (or EA's excellent Def Jam: Fight for New York). Make the interaction with the environment more organic and natural (falling through buildings, throwing one another into hazards like open lava beds or high tension wires), but over the top enough to leave a strong impression with players. Design the animations and engine in a way that really makes every attack feel like it came from a towering monster, not a poorly rendered run of the mill fighting game character. Finally, populate the game with a shed of monsters drawn from Toho's considerable Kaiju catalog, complete with the sounds and effects that fans of the franchise will appreciate.

Road Rash.

Make it 3-D, add more characterisation, allow folks to create and name their character.

Have an over the top cast of rival bikers, with the ability for the AI to remember you for knocking them down., possible some kind of friend/foe meter so folks could become allies and enemies on the track.

More tracks.

A good soundtrack, and generally bring it to modern presentation levels.

For some bizarre reason EA thinks Road Rash isn't worth a look in, I think it'd be massive if done right. Shame really.

Make Duke Nukem Forever in such a way that it doesn't suck.
The stuff 3d realms came up with seemed nice.

It already doesn't suck. It's a good game, but it deserved to be the best game of the decade.


Automatically Appended Next Post:
I would make them release Halo Reach on PC at the same time as it was released on 360.

I honestly have no idea how you enjoy Duke Nukem Forever mel, it's the last game I would have expected you to like.

Pokemon red-blue.

Black 2

A proper Oddworld Inhabitants developed oddworld game.

Soul Reaver 2 but good. It had a great story and some decent puzzles but horrible combat and a load of sketchy platforming.
Come on Crystal D Show those Darksiders dewds how to rock a Zelda clone.

A zombie open world RPG.
I had this idea before Dead Island, by the way.

Warhammer 40,000 : Stormtrooper

Think Stalker or Metro 2033...but you play as a stormtrooper.

Possibly a third person DE game. Thatd be sweet.

"Saints row...with bondage!"

Also, a Rogue Trader game based off of Mass Effect's gameplay.

An Imperial Guard game based off of Rainbow 6 Vegas 2's gameplay.

A 40k Epic/Armageddon game based off of the SupCom:FA gameplay.

Why not? Sure it has its flaws because it tried to be too much like medal of duty/call of honor/halo/etc, but it's still a fun, varied game.

Gears of War. Keeping the Horror overtones from the first game and loosing the Lambent is sentient idea.

RAAM as the persistent boss would be nice too.

Give this man a job Relic!

Hmm i was approaching this as a question of 'If you had the money to fund it' rather than an Ideal game.

I would want a free form game siimilar to skyrim but not very fantastical just medievel, with some light horror. It would also focus on realism with food/water and shelter being important and one hit kills etc and things like getting the plague or VD.

You could look for trouble; joining wars, joining/supressing rebellions or you could just try and stay out of it a la minecraft survival.

The game would not have an overarching story, but have plenty of background material to hunt down/find out from NPCs. You could become a rich powerful dude but with that would come a dramtically increased chance of dying and losing everything.
