Yeah, like that one map with the broken bridges on the Beast campaign.
So fuckin' cheap with crows.

I'd like a single-player Elder Scrolls game that took place in the whole of Tamriel like Arena did but with the graphics and gameplay mechanics of Skyrim. I'd also like both a sandbox Shadowrun game with the same scale and level of detail as either an Elder Scrolls game or one of the later Fallout games that Bethesda Softworks was involved with, as well as a sandbox Vampire: The Masquerade game that also has the same scale and level of detail as either an Elder Scrolls game or one of the later Fallout games that Bethesda Softworks was involved with. Oh, and a sandbox building game similar to Terraria or Craft the World but with an emphasis on building and crafting and little to no focus on combat. Such things would be nice.

Its got a touch screen right?  There was a competent Metroid game for the DS that was more of an FPS than a metroidvania game.
Yeah, the multiplayer was fun but the singleplayer, while capturing the essence of the console MPs, was really repetitive. Literally, there were two different boss types which were cloned with minor changes. And there were only four areas, so each one got two bosses. And the other hunters, eventually, would just randomly attack you when you entered rooms. And while Metroid is no Elder Scrolls in terms of lore complexity, the story of the Alimbics makes pretty much no sense compared with what else we know about Metroid. For one thing, it's apparently in a different galaxy from literally every other game in the series but inexplicably has stupidly similar species in it, even for pulp sci-fi adventures.

But the environments were cool, and the weapons were really badass if a bit unorthodox for Metroid (there was the stupidly powerful sniper beam, the fire-grenade thing). So it was a good game overall, just with a lot of artificial padding and nagging details.

Trace was so much fun to play as.

And that other dude who could climb up walls while morphed, and the cyborg who would split in half as his morph ball... that game did a really good job separating the different characters, they were all fun and different.

Singleplayer was somewhat shit though.

You misspelled seance.  Are possessing Draignean?  Are you actually a ghost in the shell? You have to tell us if you are, that's the rule

Oh my God, I had so much fun using that rock-guy's climbing ability to get to weird places on the map.

Did anyone ever actually play as Samus except as a self-imposed challenge? The way they designed the multiplayer characters makes her pretty much the weakest link compared with all the others.

I always seemed to do best with Samus compared to the others, I don't know why. Although people always disconnected as soon as I started winning, so I almost never finished a match properly.

I want a hybrid Tetris/RTS themed roughly along the lines of the original C&C: Red Alert. I don't know exactly how that would work, but that's the best way to describe it. It's inspired by this video.

Well that sounds easy enough, just give all the units awkward shapes. They will have to arrange tightly to concentrate fire...

I want a parkour game with randomly generated levels.  I loved Mirror's Edge but I'm tired of playing the same levels repeatedly.

Would you rather have levels that are all very samey with no designed challenges in them?

For a game like Mirror's Edge you want levels that someone has actually made.

Well Mirrors Edge 2 will have an 'open world' (how well this is done remains to be seen) so that'll at least make it less linear.

I agree that procedural generation would probably ruin it though, I can't think of a way to do it and still keep it even remotely interesting. Having a good parkour game with an equally good level editor would be awesome though.

With enough work and polish, it could have been a forgettable flash game on Kongregate.
