Last night I posted something about DVDs of kids programmes. This game and my recent track of thought gave me the brilliant(?) idea I've just had.
Does any one remember the TV series M.A.S.K. (not MASH, mis-typed)? I can't quite remember what it stood for but it was about two sides (goodies and baddies, obviously) battling it out with lots of transforming vehicles! Imagine if this was made into a racing game! The flying ones would have to be given a height limit for fairness (unless that particular race consisted of only ones that can fly and was in the sky or something) or maybe make them travel slower in the air than on land. The tracks could incorporate different sections where certain vehicles could gain slight advantages over the others - small shortcuts over water and that sort of thing.
Surely if a developer can bung a load of bond cars together and call it a game then this idea would be more than ripe for the picking.
The only problem would be that fact that hardly anyone would remember it enough to want to buy it - except me.
How about Transformers? Surely they are due for a next-gen console revival! None of your Beast Wars cack, I'm talking about the proper ones!
Ooooh if only! I guess we'll be stuck with the likes of 007 Racing, Star Wars Bingo and Start Trek: First Chess Move.
Any other ideas?

Are dead kippers allowed to enter Gameaday or would it be fairer only to give prizes to Ants, Rhinos, Sheep and other species which are clearly still alive an kicking?
(except Ant)
It was realistic not cartoony.
The cars were from the films.
The courses were based on locations in the films.
There were bonus stages in which you could drive busses, motorbikes, and speedboats.
The A-Team would be a cool game.

Not quite the response I was expecting.
How do you know I don't mean 'smoked' in the narcotic sense of the word? Can stoned marine life win Gameaday?

Probably - As long as it gives a correct e-mail address and home address when it signs up.
But then it wouldn't be a Kipper if it wasn't dead, as all kippers are SmokedHerrings!!!
I loved Teenage Mutant Hero Turtles, too bad the games were cack.
