If you could make one game...

Imagine that all the gaming companies of today have joined forces to make the best game ever and you are the leading designer. What would you do with an infinite bugdet and a massive workforce of artists and programmers. What kind of game would you make? I personally have never been asked what my perfect game would be like. Its hard to imagine come to think of it.

What would your perfect game be like? You dont have to do a long post saying exactly what it would be like (but you can if you want to) just sum up whats good about it and the things you hate that would be left out.

I would make a massive open world (The entire world) zombie survival game. I dont think it would be an MMO but it would be interesting.

"the entire world is zombies except for iceland, off you go" and you start in australia or something.

Id make it realistic with supplies and stuff but it would have fast travel. No one wants to spend 10 in game days sailing. Id love to play a game like that.
Buildings and shiz would be open to to just wander into for items and shiz. You would have to scope out a building to stay the night in and reinforce it.

Im thinking an i am legend feel really, post apocolyptia. I dislike horror games that have "safe points". Points where youa re 100% safe from any enemy. I want a game where they can ALWAYS reach you and you always have to be on guard. Towns in oblvion give the feeling of saftey and in a survival horro thats the kind of thing you want to eliminate. All items would be useable (eg a bar could be raided for drinks to make molotovs out of).

I hate it in games where theres a problem (a locked door) and the solution is easy (burn it down, kick it down, use an object to bash it) but the proggramer wants you to play by his rules and so a key is neccessary. I want a game with your own rules. Want to clear a path through some wooden buildings? Burn em down.

What would you do?

I would do a game that has physics to an absolute maximum. I mean particles the size of dust and such. I would make a game where you are a Norseman with an endless arsenal of weapons. You fight and respawn but it's not that simple. Every movement of the mouse corresponds to the weapon and it moves the same way, but not gimmicky like the Wee. It would be a cool thing to chop off people's limbs but not in a prefixed way.

You are God in human form.
You come to Earth pissed off and have the whole world to explore. No loading. Every building can be entered. You have unlimited powers, are virtually invincible, and can do whatever you want.
Want to drop a nuke on New York? Go for it.
Want to start a massive rampage against an army of terrorists? Hell yeah.
Want to parachute out of a rocket onto Uluru and chase a kangaroo around by jabbing it with a plastic fork? Sure!!
Just a game where nothing gets boring or old.
Graphics of Crysis and destruction of Red faction Guerilla, but on a bigger scale.
60 frames per second frame rate.
Real world physics so that you can knock a 60 story skyscraper down with a bamboo stalk if you hit it for long enough. (???)
That would be AWESOME.

My favorite game of an age gone by was Skies of Arcadia, dont know why i just loved it completly and wish sum things had been expanded on.

i loved the roaming about, and would love to see that in a bigger game, starting of as a young skyship captain or even a normal sailer and working ur way up, maybe even go into the militery, theirs so much i could think of, ovcourse a huge number of lands to explore(good reason to make add-ons, so much u could continue to add). i for sum reason loved having ur own secret base in arcadia and finding people to populate it, would love that but to much greater detail, and ovcourse with magic and machinery in that world, id make it that ur ships could evolve in a way, can either buy up gradualy to bigger ships, or continuelly evolve a smaller ship into a either a massive war machine: with all the different amazing beasts in the world add a feature like Monster Hunters games, defeat an incredibly tough creater and u get to upgrade your ship with its hide(maybe even tame and use the creature leviathin ship ) or hav ur ship as a small lighting fast for raiding and pirating.

Il stop here cos i could hav to many ideas for it, but ye, interesting MMO or normal rpg style game, would be amazing
