Do game companies accept ideas?

[Djanki]

You know they can't do that--they're too busy on the ninety Final Fantasy XIV games they need to make: the Deus Ex Divinalia collection!

[Felix-0]

They already have a sequel ._.

It was just japan only

[_JeT_]

Great! There's Paper Mario, Paper Mario: The Thousand Year Door, Super Mario Bros. Superstar Saga, Super Mario Bros. Superstar Saga: Travelers in Time....take your pick!

And the new one they are making. Mario and Luigi: Bower's Inside Story.
Bowser unwillingly eats them, and they have to fight their way out, or something.

Halo 2 and 3 were great for multiplayer (more than great, even. Halo 3 is one of the best online games I've ever played, excluding the fact that the general audience was made up of immature, swearing, often prepubescent players. Playing with the other 10% made it worth digging through the shitheads, though), but the charm was dead when it came to single player.

I agree, great multiplayer, but Halo 1 was the only one that had a decent single player story.

Oh, so playing golf with Mario is a win? Sorry, but the Halo trilogy is quite entertaining. Mario used to be fun up until the N64, when it started going downhill. They already destroyed the Mario gameplay because it should never surpassed past 2D, just like Sonic. You can live in your fantasy world, but honestly, Mario Tennis and Golf and all that other bullcrap killed the franchise. And this is coming from a Mario fan. I was a fan of Mario up until the **** up games.

Enjoy your Mario Cooking Class, I'll be playing real games over here.

I agree that the sport games are bad, but if you're counting those... then you're just being an ***. I'm talking the main mario games, like SMW, M64, etc. The sport games are Nintendo using THE MOST FAMOUS CHARACTER in the world, to play sport games, because most people buy Tennis Blitz or w/e. If you don't like sport games, DON'T BUY THEM. The core Mario series is better now than it ever was. More gameplay, more fun, no straight running right. Mario couldn't even turn around before. But Mario is just a re-used story... but it's fun. Unlike dredging through an empty land killing beasts for 10 hours where nothing happens, and the ending tells you nothing.

As for those other games you posted, most of them are ripoffs of old games. NO GAME IS ORIGINAL, because originality is impossible.

It's fun, but like you said, a re-used story. It is done to death. It isn't in it's prime now, that was back on the SNES. 3D Mario isn't great, it ruined the franchise. But hell, who am I talking to? Mario couldn't turn around the part 1, sure. But from Super Mario Bros. 2 and onwards, turnable.

On the original part, bullfuck. You go live in your boring live pointing everything to everything based on one or two elements. I'll be here enjoying my games because they bring new ideas into the franchise.

I want Capcom and Bethesda to team up and make a cross between Monster Hunter and Fallout 3 or something. I would never stop playing.

[Deathreaper]

I'm waiting for Capcom to make a new fighter in 2D. SFIV was very disappointing to me, with SFIII being such a challenge and techniqual.

[Darkfox]

Ristar.

Yes!

[Archem]

It's fun, but like you said, a re-used story. It is done to death.

Wait, are you talking about Mario? Because if you're playing for story, then you've completely missed the point. hell, up until Super Mario Sunshine, I wasn't even aware that there was a story!

It's about jumping on/over shit, usually in under 300 seconds.

And it was all the better that way I say. XD

What today's games lack is fun.


Truest honest.

Everything is the same. Only random encounter rpgs have that replay value these days.
Pretty much every game these days are the same over and over:

Step through the door. A sniper appears on the North-eastern building roof next to a sign.
3 Soldiers with AK 45 breaks through the roof.
2 more soldiers appear on the right and left.
5 soldiers spawn in the South eastern building and will try to ambush you.
There's a med pack in the middle of the room.
The couch is blocking the sniper of you duck behind it.
The 2nd soldier from the roof will throw a flash grenade at you.

You die first time:
You place a mine at the South eastern building.
You arm yourself with grenades and walks through the door.
Everything starts happening like last time.
You throw one grenade to the right into the hallway where one of the soldiers runs. And then one on the left.
You duck and wait for the flash to wear out.
You grab your rifle and shoot the sniper because you know exactly where he is.
The 5 soldiers that spawn die from the mine.
You shoot the remaining 3 soldiers and walks to the next room.

You'll know exactly what's going to happen. And it ruins the excitement of the game same thing over and over.
I'd like some random changes here and there. Like in clocktower. The house wasn't planned the same way every playthrough. It would look different the second time if you were unlucky.

[fruckert]

Random Encounter FPS's would be interesting.

[Prpl_Mage]

Random Encounter FPS's would be interesting.

It would at least make them challenging.
The only challenge they bring you these days are rocket launchers and laser.

ANother thing. This realism bull is killing games. Why the hell would you want to make games more realistic? It's a game. I want to do in a game what I can't do in real life, if they REALLY want to be realistic they would have a game about you trying to get a job in this economy. Job loss, failing schools, homelessness... that's real enough for me.

Or going to the store to buy some soda, but your favorite kind is out so you have to go back home without, then go back and it is STILL out. And then you get mildly annoyed and have to take an alternative, that isn't half bad, but it's not the same.
