A Lovecraftian third person game in which you can either play as the humans who can only hold out for so long or the horrific beasts which stalk the aformentioned humans.
Left 4 Dead?
A tiny bit like L4D versus mode, but instead the monsters are, as I said, Lovecraftian (Shoggoths, Deep Ones, etc.) and the humans can't blow away 10 enemies at a time.
Possibly to include a sanity feature and most likely very story based. Also, if it could be designed, a really good text to speech program so we wouldn't have to deal with the annoying mics and the story would be somewhat like heavy rain, where if one person dies it would simply edit itself to make that part of the story. I know it's practically impossible, but it would be awesome considering the only lovecraftian games out there are Call of Cthulhu: Dark Corners of the Earth, which had a good story, but terrible voice acting and really annoying glitches, and Cthulhu Saves the World, which was funny, but not in true Lovecraft spirit.
Of course, somone may make a game out of James Cameron's "At the Mountains of Madness", but if you're making a video game off a movie, and the movie itself craps on the original story, then that game would probably end up as another one of those games that nobody likes to talk about, or loves to hate.
