Would Anyone Else Enjoy a Game Like This?

I would if it had variety. Like, you could choose what kind of setting, guns, and enemies. In fact, this game might be cool if you could choose a plot to go with it. Like, a random plot generator.

Let's say you choose a western setting. The plot-generator might give you there's a bank robbery that you stop and when you do, it turns out that it was all a diversion so that sheriff wouldn't know that all his prisoners were being turned loose. They prisoners decided to unleash anarchy on the town and it's up to you to stop them.

Now, that could variate on several different points. It would be a short story, yes, but you could do it over and over again with various differences. And since I said you could choose setting, imagine that same plot in a sci-fi or a modern setting. Yeah, this deviates from OP but it's just an additional idea.

A gun that fires tiny suns that explode the target. Charged with electricity. And pointiness.

If the enemies were good enough, weapons varied enough, I'd enjoy it.

Try playing the zombie mod for CoD:WaW. It's hella fun, especially if you only buy weapons from the random weapon box.

Not a mod.

It doesn't matter, you know what I mean.

Didn't they make that already? (Postal)

Ever heard of "Alien Shooter"? Highly recommended.

 

[Emperor Inferno]

Yes, I've thought of this before, too. No distractions, just pure, mindless violent fun.

They have this type of game in droves as flash games online.
Or you could just play something like dynasty warriors and skip the "plot" text at the beginning of every mission.
Or you could just play Halo.

Earlier today I was just lounging around, bored out of my skull, when I thought of an idea for a game. All it would be is you and endlessly respawning enemies. No story, no objectives, no nothing....just killing stuff.

Isn't that Gears of War 2's Horde Mode?

No offense, though. I'd play it.

constantly spawning enemies, big guns, bosses, no plot, violence.. this is sounding like left 4 dead.
