Time a for a little fun. All I want is for everyone to post the most absurd idea for a game that will top the sale of any game currently on the market. Just post the title, system, and a short description or caption to sell your game.

heres mine:
DOA: Extreme Olympic Curling
X Box

You thought those vicious beach babes played hard and looked sexy on the volleyball courts? Just check them out when the become kinky snow bunnies in Salt Lake City competing for the Olympic gold, curling the night away. After the events you can join the women of DOA in a beautiful ski lodge, polish their curling stones and drinking hot cocoa. Can you measure up for these honeys?

good idea! i guess mine would be...

nba extreme lockout competition
playstation

you thought the lockout in the NBA was over didnt you? well its back, anbd badder than ever! now you can compete in beer chugging competitions, masturbation frenzies, and even go into head to head cleaning out the garage action! all for a rediculously low price of $13,462.33!

My game would be called "G-Man Attacks!" It's mostly a simple Space Indervaders-style clone, made to milk money out of the license yet again. The aliens are taken out of it, and instead are different pictures of Geraldo Rivera's decapitated head. There are points when Al Quaeda fly at the top of the screen instead of a spaceship, but they have a real purpose for flying: all the while in the game the G-Man we all know and love is spouting secrets as to where everything they could ever want to attack is. They collect the data, so it's more necessary to hit them before they get a chance to throw more Geraldos at you.

The best part is when you're successful: you actually get to see the image of Geraldo shouting up a storm, then getting shot in the cross-fire of the attack (in the area he was talking about), getting incredibly bloody and has the US armymen laughing their asses off.

Whaddaya think?

DOA: Extreme Olympic Curling

I'd buy this in a heartbeat, I'm a huge Curling fan

ANyway, the most ridiculous idea I can think of right now would be:

Sid Meier's Sim Bowling

You start with nothing but an empty city block, your goal: to build the most profitable bowling center in the city. Do you put in a pro shop or not? Do you go for the retro 50s lounge look, or a modern Cosmic Bowling setting? How much do you sell rosin bags for? The choices you make can make, or break your dreams...

Osaka Seafood Concern: Knife Goes In, Guts Come Out - PS2

This 3-D simulation accurately reproduces the feel of laboring for the Osaka Seafood Concern as a fish gutter! Sing the Company Loyalty Song! Gut thousands of near-identical fish over and over! OSC: KGI, GCO comes packaged with the new Smelloscopic (TM) nasal enhancer unit that makes your entire house smell like the actual Osaka Seafood Concern fish gutting plant! That way, you won't miss out on a single part of the experience!

Remember - "Knife-a goes in, a-guts come out - that's what Osaka Seafood Concern is all about!"

Extreme Arena Hentai Jai-Alai

I'll just let all of your deranged imaginations work with this one. I don't even know what it's supposed to be. I just use this sometimes as a descriptive term for modern games when I'm trying to elaborate upon how disconnected an old-fart 4 kilobyte cartridge gamer like me feels so disconnected from what the young'uns are playing.

I call it The Real Adventures of Ben Franklin. It mostly involves Ben Franklin defending the 13 colonies against space aliens, using the machine gun he invented in his garage. Which he also invented.

It's like Contra, but during the founding days of the United States of America. The plot gets pretty crazy, after a while you have to invent a time machine and gather the Heroes of History (William Shatner, Albert Einstein, and the 1979 Chicago Bears) to battle Satan during the end of the universe.

Can someone PLEASE get me a staff? I have way too many good ideas for games.

I'd create one, but the Japanese game developers have already done it for me.

Virtua View Series - Enjoy Play Nemoto Harumi (http://www.japanvideogames.com/phtml/front/index.php?showitemid=2166&searchtext=harumi&search=1&formatid=0)

The cover art sells that sucker. It's strange that we haven't seen anything like this in the US.

Schindler's List Your job, as Schiindler is to save as many Jewish lives as possible by hiring them for your factories and doing many of the other things Schindler did in the movie. The more Jews you save the more points you score! Careful! If the Nazis catch you they'll kill you and then it'll be GAME OVER!

Has someone mentioned SimMMORPG yet? (It seems like such a good idea that I must have read about it somewhere. Maybe Fargo?)

Imagine the challenge! Carefully woo subscribers so you can afford new servers! Put out advertising to combat negative media coverage of addicited players! Pursue famous comic book artists to draw for your new expansions! Implement preposterous gameplay changes and watch your customers wail in agony! And so on.

Peeping Tom.

It would be a FPP (First Person Peeper) game. Wander the streets, peering into windows without being seen. Score big points for seeing cheerleaders change into their nightgowns; similarly, lose points for watching Granny do the same thing. X2 multiplier for catching couples "in the act" (major deductions, however, if you're related to one of the two).

O.J. Simpson's Stab & Dash
Atari 5200
Rockstar North

How far can you make it down the highway in a white Bronco after stabbing your wife and her lover? You better watch out becuase the cops are hot on your tail an theres no use trying to shake um'. All you can do now is try to get the hi-score by dodging cops and innocent bystanders in a petal to the metal race against crime...

Virtual 4 year old girl.

Tomagatchi style -

You have to keep it fed, although it wants to eat peanut butter and jelly with the crusts cut off at 11 o'clock at night, even though you told her to eat dinner at the table at 6 with everyone else.

You have to correct her just right, too soft and she'll grow up to be a stripper, too harsh and she bursts into tears and runs from you, lowering your "Dad Rating".

You have to perform the 1 hr nightime ritual of bed, involving bath, tucking, stories, singing, and talking about what will happen in preschool the next day.

Mini - Games include keeping water in the tub as she takes a bath, seeing how long you can go without seeing her before wondering what she is up to, and my personal favorite, the clean your room showdown. Clear you calendar for that one, it'll be awhile.

As a side note, 4 year old boy will not be available to the public, all rights were purchased by Michael Jackson.

Have you ever heard of Melon-Chan's Growth Diary for the NGPC? It's a Tamagotchi-style raising of a young girl, though there is no room cleaning or Michael Jackson encounters.

Speaking of Michael Jackson...

Zork V: Neverland

A text adventure in which you wander around MJ's Neverland Ranch searching for evidence that everyone's favorite accused child molestor actually did it. Fight of horrible demons, giraffes, monkeys, Liza Monelli and finally the freakshow himself, and collect items such as Magical Distraction (which when used turns into a young boy to keep MJ away from you), and Pepsi Reinactment spell (MJ bursts into flames and runs around screaming). A sure-fire hit in this world of wonderous graphics, a text adventure shall reclaim the throne!

(Warning: Keep away from children.)

The main plot of the game is to eliminate Ronald and his evil corperation from destroying the world. It's a mixture of Metal Gear Solid/Splinter cell/Manhunt that has been mixed in to make you feel like a Secret combat warrior on your mission to save the world while defeating your enemies.

My idea? Hehehe... I suggested this on another board somewhere...

Grand Theft X-Wing (PS2)

Luke Skywalker goes to the dark side... and he's looking to muscle out his own dad and that geezer who employs him. Pimp all across the galaxy far, far away, stealing all sorts of space jalopys like X-Wings, TIE fighters, AT-STs, and Star destroyers. The hot spots to go include Tatooine, the Death Star, Hoth, Dagobah, Cloud City, Endor, Naboo, Coruscant, Kamino, Geonosis, and a s**tload of other points. Intergalactic hoes? You betcha. Lotsa weapons too, like Stormtrooper Rifles, Thermal Detonators, Rocket Darts, and of course, let's not forget the pleasure that one gets when decapitating a bystanding Ewok with a Lightsaber. Beware the freakin' Stormtroopers, who won't hesitate to gun you down if they catch you perpetrating a crime! If you piss them off too much, they'll bring in the droids, the bounty hunters, and even the Jedis to take your body dead or alive! I guarantee that it's a huge sack of fun. Yep, huger than Bantha feces.

Fragkill

Plot: Waking up one morning and realizing you don't have any eggs, you leave your apartment, only to walk into the midst of an alien invasion. As multi-colored beings kill everyone in sight, you grab a pistol that just happens to be on the ground in front of you, and set off to fight.

Gameplay: It's a First-Person Shooter, in a frantic Contra-like environment where enemies are constantly trying to kill you. Many of 'em. As they flood on towards you, you blow them away with increasingly powerful weaponry, collecting power-ups to improve your max health, armor and weapon power. Featuring the pixel-perfect NeuroFlux engine and supporting up to 200 enemies onscreen at once. Now here's the kicker: the game has no missions. Essentially, the entire world is open to your disposal. You can travel anywhere at any time and do anything. Not satisfied starting out in L.A. or New York? Choose from a vast amount of start points. Start off in Tokyo and pilot a plane to Moscow. Get in a Tank and roll into Paris. Shoot your way through Portugal, or go to Cape Canaveral and join the human resistance as they take off in a shuttle towards the main battleship. Add to that, fully destructible environments. Toronto crawling with aliens? Jump in a F16 and blow up the CN tower or Skydome. Wire a nuke and level a city. Crash a propane truck into a shopping mall and send it sky-high. The possibilities are endless. As is the game. Instead of completing mission after mission, and then killing the "last boss", the game has no missions or objectives. Instead, the game incorporates an enhanced scoring system and the game's purpose is simply to get the highest score possible by eliminating aliens (how about taking on the task of cleaning up a state, and possibly a country? That would warrant a huge score). There you have it: Fragkill, for: whatever system can accomodate that big of a world on a single disc (this may take a few decades).

I had this idea that would seem pretty wierd

an Ozzy Osborn game

It would be a lemming style game were You would be the assistant that follows Ozzy around and make's sure he doesn't hurt himself. There would be some simple rules to this you would have no control over were Ozzy went, if he was walking towards a hole in the floor you'd have to get a board and place it over it so he won't fall in ect. If he did hurt himself you would lose your job.
