What if all Game developers made one game?

[Patathatapon]

YES I KNOW THIS IS UNREALISTIC ITS HYPOTHETICAL BLAH BLAH BLAH.

ANYWAY! As the title suggests, imagine if all game developers brought their best to the table to all make one game. Then ask yourself a few questions about it:

1) What game companies do you think would bring a certain aspect to it?
2) What genre do you think it would be?
3) Do you think it might be good?

Also you could bring some of the WORST companies in as a "How not to do it guide" (coughEAcoughVectorcellcough).

For me:

1) Valve would bring pure awesomeness, blizzard would probably bring some sort of replayability/addictiveness, EA would reccomend ideas just so everyone coudl do the opposite of that.

2) I'd LIKE it to be an FPS, but I have a feeling it'd end up as either an MMORPG or just an RPG.

3) I think it could actually be pretty damn good. Again, assuming we live in a world where the companies are getting along fine and the Xbox One didn't exist.

So what do you guys think?

EDIT: key word is ONE game. No sequels, just a stand alone title.

So, are we including Japanese game devs, or only Western ones? Because I highly doubt both worlds could mesh smoothly.

All, but if you'd like to focus on west devs or japenese devs(I don't know any japanese ones other then sony and nintendo) your free to do that. And again, take a general thing the developer does with the games, and turn it into a thing they would do. Also, this is a magical world where it would somehow work out.

Then I'll go with something like this:

At least the Heaven part.
Genre: RPG, although anything with a good story would work.
And it'll be the best game ever.

RPG, with the world building and part of the dialogue done by pre-ea bioware, the other part of dialogue and the main story done by obsidian, the combat mechanics handled by valve, the visuals handled by square-enix with oversight from obsidian and valve to keep shit less cosplay-fetishistic, and 2k handling class balance and any squad-based gameplay (yes, i'd like a two tier combat system; regualr skyrim/fallout style roaming the world combat for the main character, and nuxcom style squad-based combat for certian quests when you have to liberate a city or open a path to a boss).

You forgot it would be play tested to high hell by Bungie. (On the Heaven side, Bungie are fucking awesome)
