Don't you all think its time that computer games programers stoped making things like Tomb Raider (its getting a bit boring now) and Ridge Racer and make funny and no point to it games. I think they should make games like Uni-cycle pro and cornershop catastrafies because they would sell like hot cakes because if someone like a robber came into your shop you could first knock them out with your sunday paper (because them things are so big, trust me, i have done a paper round) and then check if its Mrs Roberts from next door or Fred Smith from round the corner as the action side then for people who like theme hospital and theme park, you get to design how your shop looks and what you want to sell and if you have enough money to buy a Ferrari or buy shares in a football team, i mean you have to admit that it would be fun, and i know some of you are saying i'm sad and whats the point of the game but remember this game will probably never be made and if it is it will go straight in the bin, so shut up and try to imagine it, ok.

Not necersarily, with DVD games being released and broadband connection it's only a matter of time before this ideas used, if it hasn't been thought of already then i'm a super genius *cough* I would base this idea on Music for the PSX + I wouldn't want this game on a PSX, it would need more memory + I can't make good games,

And I said good, not fun. That is my opinion. You don't have to agree with it.

Fogmaster, if you have an idea, buy one of those black playstations, anyway your idea would be way to complicated and would cost a bomb to do! dont mean to be horrible, thats just my opinion, sorry!

I can't imagine such tat, sorry.
all you want is some originality, I have no idea what games flick your switch, but anything with good attention to detail and new ideas gets me going and deserves my money.
Ridge Racer 6 is asking a bit too much from the public, but it sells so why not? I think Tomb raider is more of a hobbie for the game makers as their skill sare getting more advanced and they can use the game engines for other top quality games like Siphon Filter....etc, etc.
I think a game where you can make your own games would be good.
you'd make your character from some samples given with the game, you might be able to buy data cds with more landscapes and body parts later on.
Anyway, you'd make your own levels and swap them, with people online so you wouldn't know what to do and where to go..that could be intresting.
