Games that would be amazing if they were made

[PsychoFish]

So i've been pondering about why some games simply don't exist. For the most part its probably too amazing to comprehend, too technical to implement or has some licencing implications that would make it extremely difficult or just not financially viable. However, this is pure imagination, so go wild and tell me/us what games would make you want to throw money at developers.

For me there would be a couple like :

Ken Block Gymkhana - Must be made by Codemasters, but should focus on doing Gymkhana type events with ridiculously overpowered cars and super tight gymkhana tracks. Kinda like Dirt Rally meets Forza. Focus on the realism and just make it insane and Ken Block over the top.

a new SWAT type FPS - Take the bullets flying everywhere rubbish out of it. Make this a tactical shooter with the focus on things like stealth entry to rescue hostages. Taking that long range shot through a window to take out someone. Foil a bank robbery, etc. Typical cop stuff. Make it realistic, in that taking an assault rifle to the chest at close range even with body armor will kill you pretty much instantly. I'm thinking kinda like CS:GO meets Rainbow Six and Ghost Recon with the focus on actually finishing the mission/round without actually having to fire a single shot.

A Ubisoft game that is actually playable on launch. I'm looking at watchdogs which is really fun, except for all the stuttering.

For technology, Star Trek's holodeck. Now port the original Quake to it....I'll never leave the holodeck...oh and remember the NIN soundtrack.

I am wishing for a game, it starts off way zoomed out, like Jane's Fleet Command for global tactics, ROE, resource allocation etc. Then zooms in a bit for local strategic game, like C&C. Then at last you zoom in and have a FPS like BF4.

Here are some ideas for games I would love:

A James Bond reboot game: Set James Bond on an adventure around the world. The story should be unique and not based on one of the current movies. The hook for the game will be the fact that the environment will be used more than your normal FPS game, and will form an integral part of the gameplay mechanics

Terraformers: This game will be a blend of RTS with some city building elements like the old Caesar or Pharaoh games. You will be tasked to take control of the terraforming duties on distant planets. You will face different terrain and alien challenges while building a successful settlement and terraforming the rest of the planet. You will have to juggle resource management on the planet with providing space for new colonists, and remember to guard them from other races or bandits trying to steal your stuff

The West: A game set in the time when the American pioneers set course for the west coast of the continent. You can select the class you want to play ass, be it a bandit, sheriff, explorer, homesteader or builder. Your task is to set forth for the west coast, explore the wild country side, gather resources and build homes and shelters for your folk.

Kinda like GTA meets Minecraft meets Skyrim meets Banished

DGH got an idea. But instead of the "Wild West", set in in the Anglo-Boer war periods. And what about a Vietnam style game but set in SWA/Angola with unique South African weapons against those of the Russians.

Hahaha yes something like that. It would be awesome. I already have the idea, the setting, the game mechanics and all that planned out. All I need is a dedicated team of highly skilled developers and artists and a few million dollars, then my dream will become a reality...

That could work, but FPS with voorlaaiers too.

And it would have interesting unit classes like "Cape Railway Sharpshooter" and "Dundee Rifleman"

I'm trying to entice my game mad 8 year old to try his hand at coding, the problem is I despise coding.
