If it has the customization of either games, and the environmental devastationalism of the SW, then as an FPS that'd be pretty sweet.

... Yes, the hugs are for everyone.  No stabbing, though.  Just hugs.

Yes, an FPS where you could, for no reason, detonate your chest part and destroy an entire city block and everyone in it, would certainly be funny.

But, not too optimistic either.

Dart is an artificial intelligence built to be endlessly curious about her host human and to learn to love them over time. Out of the box, she doesn't really get this whole "feelings" dynamic that human brains run on, but she can do a good imitation of it on demand. She vacillates between cold calculation and catty commentary. She is speaking directly into the Kilo's ear. British R.P. Sound.

She's a curious, catty, AI who fits in your ear. He's a cold sniper with an attitude. Together, they fight crime!

You know this could be a sequel to Syndicate Wars, in a world where those religious freaks win and outlaw all corporations.

EDIT: Oh wait, the whole "they fight crime" was an addition on your end, Josephus. Ah man.

Another classic strategy game remade as a shooter for no apparent reason?  Well at least this seems like it'll have a similar setting.  Oh well this was one of the few Bullfrog games I never really got into so I can't really get worked up.

It was inspired by http://www.theyfightcrime.org/ and multiple fictional movie posters.

That wouldn't even make sense. You can't be both mindlessly shooting and govern the entire world and research stuff and move armies at the same time.

It's known as the Oppai-Kaiju effect. The islands of Japan generate a sort anti-gravity field, which allows breasts to behave as if in microgravity. It's also what allows Godzilla and friends to become 50 stories tall, and lets ninjas run up the side of a skyscraper.

I can see it now

Civilization: Rise of the One.

Battle through history, acting as leader of your people, engaging in head-to-head online multiplayer deathmatch with other world leaders. Every frag you score brings you one step closer to the next great technology. Will you be the first to unlock the mystical secrets of one of 28 unique weapons?

I know it's unrealistic, but I can't help but imagine little bearded babies for dwarves. In my mind, they come out of the womb fully bearded. That's how the mother carries them around, too, she just drags them around by the beard or ties it to her belt. When the father's on duty, he just ties their beards together and the baby just kind of hangs there, swinging to and fro with Urist McDaddy's movements.
