Something genuine not like sports or anything. Like something amazing with video game adaptations added on. Powers, achievements, abilities etc. :D

Something along the lines of "Photo Hunt" where you compare two videos of Republican lawmakers / Presidential hopefuls (looking at you, Palin) and pick out the parts where they contradict their own previous statements.

Abortions. (j/k please don't mod)

Well they already have life... I'd say work in a cubical. I'd call it "Cubical." If you can get through an 8 hour work day then you'll gain an achievement. If you can get through the week you'll get another one. Try getting through a whole year with only 3 days vacation and sick leave... combined.

Columbine. Except you have to avoid being shot, watching everyone die around you.

Like a survival horror game, but you are defenseless

judog1

Though I think the columbine thing is in really poor taste... I do agree with the premise... A game where you are defenseless and your only option is escape... Where like a horror sim with like monsters, or you are like a random civilian guy in a war zone trying to get out... Sounds good. Needs really good ai, stealth mechanics, and free running...

Your relatives about to descend enmass upon your house. It is up to you to hold off the mob of zombie relatives all while finding food for yourself, a place to sleep, weapons you can use on them (both physical and emotional ones), all while defending yourself from them. Occasionally you may gain an ally as you level up but your relatives will also level up.

Fishing. And no it has not been done already. I mean "fishing" not "catching". I want the lawn chair, the Y shaped stick holding the pole up, the cooler full of beer and i want 50% of all casts to end in you getting stuck on logs/trash/sunken car and losing a few dollars worth of tackle.

I also want game wardens to randomly walk up and ask "Having any luck?" "Whats in the cooler?" "Can i see your license?" over and over. No other in game dialogue is needed.

Rush Hour Traffic. You're being timed. Your goal is to reach your workplace (and then on the next stage home) before your character's stress level maxes out and he drives his car into an oncoming semi.

I was thinking along the lines of SA. This is an idea of a game I have had. You are a gangster starting out and slowly take territory, you create your own colors, what ever gang trys to take you over if you win then join your gang(on the fence about this) but you do the day to day things sell drugs, weapons kill expand terrritory.

Shouldn't this topic be in GGD? Anyway how about an on-line game were you are randomly selected (gender being the only factor) to live with a small group of random people on-line to play as the modern American family. You could be the son, daughter, mother, or father. Kids go to school, parents go to work, then they come home and gripe about their day, and have to deal with each other. Also you'd have to play with the same group all week, and if you don't want to play with them you'll have to wait till the week is up to play with a different group.

I've always had a desire to make a game about people that go from door to door trying to sell their religion.

It would be an adventure game/RPG where you move from door to door and in every encounter with someone who doesn't slam the door in your face immediately, you have go play a sort of dialogue tree game where you have to say the most effective things to woo the person enough so that they let you get to second base (not in a perverted way, you deviants!)

As you woo the person, your meter fills up and when it gets to the top, you get to go inside the house and then you have to convince them to join for church with the same dialogue trees. When you manage to do that, you get another name added to your quota. If you fail, you get ushered out of the house and if you push too hard or don't leave, you'll get the cops called on you and then the game might turn into something like GTA if you're a bad ass enough. But if your character is fat, well, turbo controller's would be compatible with the game.

For ease of use, you would be able to reference your holy book at the touch of a button for better understanding of your religion, so that you can effectively argue for it.

You can play with any religion or make your own (though this takes quite a bit of work if you want to make a serious religion; if you just want to worship Chuck Norris or something, then you can quickly slap something together), but your character won't have good attributes if they're Catholic or something since they don't have experience at knocking at doors. You'd have to build that character up through experience points. Mormons and Johovas Witness have the best stats (though Mormons would have more charm), but if you are a good enough player, you can make a Buddhist a beast of a character.

You would beat the game when you get promoted to a higher position, but it would be a game that could span years like Harvest Moon.

You would also have the option to participate in church minigames like Bingo and Scrabble. If your church is kind of shady, you can gamble behind closed doors and even skim some money off the offering basket. The possibilites would be endless in this game.

I want the gaming world as the one we live in, everything in its place, with the freedom of wandering around doing whatever you want. You can mug people, vandalize shops and cars or you can simply be one decent civilian.

It would be really nice if you started the game with a nude character, with no money. Then you have to try to get yourself some clothes and make some cash, you can do that either buy robbing people, breaking into houses or decently finding a well-paid job and work 24/7.

Or you could get married and stuff, raise your children, send them to school. Read paper in the yard with your kids playing.

Sounds a lot like a more realistic Saints Row. My idea would be a game where you play as someone who uses immoral tactics to try to get his business to the point where he controls the world, then you keep up world domination until you get betrayed by your closest ally.
