    Default A new FPS idea?

    I was just wondering why no design studio gave us a World War one or a new Vietnam or even Iraq war game?

    Maybe World at war is close enough to the feel of Iraq but there is still lots of moola to be made....

    World War I was boring trench warfare is not exactly prime action game material. Vietman is still too fresh in peoples mind. As for Iraq, look at what happened to 6 days in Fullaja (Spelling) and those where ex-soldiers making it. The right path to take is what MW does, near future, fictional wars. This way you wont step on any sensitive subject matter.

    Vietnam - that would have been hard with old tech, but I can see crysis engine handling this today! But the reason it wont be made is because America lost that one
    Wait... what?

    Now that is a great idea, the main character should be Piet, wif his rifles in hand, shooting bad guys to free his wife from a British concentration camps.

    The singularity is about to explode! Weapons are at maximum.

    Easily cured if you can play the game from both sides

    How about a sequel to Custer's Revenge. Turn that into an FPS
