Game developers will only listen to WWII, so I like the idea of an alternative. USMC and Red Army soldier taking part in the mainland invasion of Japan, starting with he tutorial being the Battle of Okinawa, continuing to the landings, the detonations of the nuclear bombs, the quick realizations that the bombs can kill Americans and Russians too (they didn't know about radiation sickness) and the Jap's launching their own atomic weapons (they did have their own). At least 5, at most 10 acts, culminating in the attack on Tokyo by both Allied forces simultaneously, and the taking of the Emperors crib. All this while passing it of as a documentary, and the very beginning of the game, as well as the end, is a college professor teaching the course, and busting out in tears over having to cover the invasion, because he had to take part in it, and the camera panning to see a picture of the squad you fought with, only older looking, and a single tear dropping on the picture. Actually, never mind, I am calling my lawyer to gain intellectual property over this. Suck it beatches.

I'd kinda like to see a Zulu War FPS. I've always wanted to play as an English soldier at the last stand at Rorke's Drift.
If you thought people raging over L4D2 being racist was bad, imagine a game where you play an invading white man gunning down technologically inferior Africans.
You mean Resident Evil 5 without zombies?
Basically, but without the (imo, legitimate) justification of "But they're zombies!". They're just black people. And you're shooting them. Because black people are the enemy.

Pre-colonisation South America. That shit would be awesome in a game. Let me play as the Aztecs or something. Or take me to the Pacific Islands or Hawaii or something. Those are some fierce warriors with an untapped mythology.

Plenty if places in the ancient world could use more love too. I need more Khans and Mongol warlords in my video games.
AoE III. Yes it isn't the best but one of the expansions (War Chiefs) has exactly that.

kids in the 90,s with PSI powers as a RPG
or GTA Amsterdam seriously HOW HARD is it to make a crime game set in the drugs capital of the world?
PS or maybe Edo Japan
90's kids with PSI powers? Sounds like the Mother series to me.

I don't know about Amsterdam though. Imagine doing a car chase mission in Amsterdam's narrow streets (and you just know every GTA needs at least one). Sounds like a recipe for frustration to me.
but Mother,s/Earthbound,s setting is never used outside its series on GTA Amsterdam maybe a BOAT chase there are ALLOT of historical Grachten in Amsterdam
Nah. If car chases are your thing just set the game in Stockholm. Google "Escape from Stockholm" if you're not sure why.

Saturday night in any small English town. All melee / hand to hand combat, with power ups coming in the form of dropped kebabs with chilli sauce you can run over. Bonus points for kicking in the glass at bus stops. If you come across one of the super-rare crates of Stella Artois, you get a 20 second beserker mode. Putting a traffic cone on your head grants you invulnerability for 30 seconds.
Sounds like Canberra...

Anyone here good at making flash games?

Gallipoli?
If it was handled carfully it could be really good or for that fact, and games set during the 1st and 2nd world war from an ANZAC soliders perspective.

Futuristic Scientologist-dominated Earth(Teegeeack) & surrounding planets. You're a member of the Sea ORG, or an evolution thereof, and you travel around "getting in Ethics", which means using your special "ethics" and "dianetics" powers to kill or subdue aliens / freezoner pirates / anonymous cultists. Sometimes you audit people and submerge yourself in their subconscious, fighting all kindsa weird shit while clearing out their reactive minds. You can also use the E-meter to save your game, upgrade your skills, etc.

We need more SteamPunk!

Games set in Victorian England would be great fun as well. I'm talking about RPGs here, not shooters.

Yup, we even have our own local fighting styles named after different suburbs. I happen to be a 3rd grade Bruce in Charnwood Labor Club Fu.
