Peeping Tom - the game.
This is a light-hearted game idea, just my Benny Hill-meets-Psycho imagination running riot. No offense intended.
Picture this:
The game environment would be an after-dark innercity shopping area at Christmas time full of all kinds of curious characters, such as street entertainers, Elvis impersonators, fake Father Christmas', drag queens, pick-pockets, buskers, end-of-the-world doom merchants, and of course, more "normal" citizens.
Buildings would include casinos, fast food diners, strip joints, videogame arcades, nightclubs, offices, cafes, and residental structures.
Every building would have detailed interiors, and every room and space would be accessible to you (the player). For instance: gamble at the casino, go dancing at the nightclub, play games at the arcade, pay for a lap dance at the strip joint, buy a burger at the fast food outlet, etc.
The lead character would be a rather dubious so-and-so named Tom 'Boggy' Dawson, a keen amateur photographer and a member of the local historical society. Viewed in 3rd person, his appearance would be the classic and universal depiction of the dirty-old-man, i.e. long brown overcoat, small black hat, large square spectacles and fluffy moustache.
The Gameplay would see our unsavoury lead character being capable of performing many different stealth and acrobatic moves - from crouching, crawling, jumping and sneaking, to picking locks, skulking in the shadows and climbing ladders. He would be able to go almost anywhere in the urban game area.
The innercity design would be very complex and detailed, as would the lead character's physical abilities and moves.
The goal of the game would basically be this: scattered throughout the innercity zone are 100 naked and rather gorgeous women in various fixed and unknown positions - i.e taking a shower with the curtains undrawn, etc.
All Tom (you the player) would have to do is explore the large urban game area in a stealthy manner armed only with his big'n'powerful zoom-lens camera, and capture on film all the nude lovelies to complete the game.
The game's purpose is made difficult by the fact that the ladies are only naked and "in view" at certain set times during each evening (dusk till dawn).
It's a simple and err, interesting idea I think, but to get into the right and necessary positions in order to take the photos would take alot of exploration and avoidance stealth.
You must not allow the victim (so to speak) to know that you are prowling with intent, and you must not let any other good citizens know of your shadey designs as they would alert the cops.
Stealth, interaction (with items and scenery), exploration, and strategy would be the main gameplay features.
The zoom lens camera would work just like a powerful sniper rifle (except without the bullets obviously).
Talk to any of the people milling about in the game area and they will offer you subtle hints as to the possible whereabouts of "the ladies" you seek in your dodgy quest.
Capture all 100 naked babes on film to complete the game.
The music would naturally be instrumental ditties of a sleazy-saxophone-bluesy-funk type, and at any time you'd be able to view a photo album featuring your successful snaps of the ladies.
There you go - sort of a perverse version of Pokemon for the Loaded generation.

Stealth, nude ladies and a zoom camera, surely a guaranteed hit!
Thats a funny game idea, maybe Rockstar would be interested in this game idea...
If done well, could well become the GTA of its age, and that's no bad thing.
Think about the free publicity from the Daily Mail, and other holier than thou people. Could be great, and I know I'd buy it

I like it. Sort of Splinter Cell with a more worthwhile purpose. ;)
