I "design" games all the time. ie, I am constantly losing post-its with ideas and concepts hastily scribbled onto them. :)

As for continuations, reboots, remakes etc. More "Raw Danger / Disaster Report" games. I was heartbroken when the third game was never translated and then the fourth game was cancelled so close to being finished. "I am Alive" looks like its the only other thing that will come close to the fantastic "trash" that series managed to deliver. True examples of the end product being so, so much more than just the sum of its parts.

More games following Deadly Premonition. Pretty much same as above. For what was pretty much a broken and terrible game, it was completely brilliant, and I need to see what is next for not just the protagonist, but more of everything about that whole universe. Then again I was a massive Twin Peaks fan as a kid so no surprise there.

Remake of Wizball. This time in actual 3D. While the game itself could easily be left as a "flat" sidescroller, I see no real reason why it could not be also in a ture 3D world either. It is simple enough to easily work either way. Leave the gameplay mostly untouched. Just a straight up 3D arcade action style game about a wizard and his cat flying around in balls shooting aliens to recover the colour they have stolen from the world. I can even see the little wizard and the cat in their little "ships". Think Myth Makers Ords of Doom and you pretty much can see how the stylistic design could so easily work. Best part is it could be done so easily! I honestly think a small team could easily pull this off and then release it via here on GoG, or even turn up in one of the charity bundles. Because the game does not have to be epic to be awesome.

Along the same lines, only tweaked a bit to more match todays more advanced gaming style, I'd love to see a new Gain Ground game. What with GLaDOS pretty much the greatest character ever it is now the perfect time to capitalise on the Rogue AI taking over the facility. Gain Ground would work perfectly today. Everyone would love it. Best part is just like Wizball this would not need to be an Epic AAA release. The game is so strong that even a small team of indie dudes could easily slap a tight and completely addictive remake of this one together.
An actual sequel/remake to Syndicate *duh*.

(actually this also includes Jagged Alliance, X-Com and Cannon Fodder but you see, I wanted to keep it short so it would funnier, haha... ha...)

Speaking of Sensible Software, and I've said this before, but I'd love to see GOG put in the quids needed to finally finish and release 'Drugs, Sex and Rock n' Roll' the game that was too rude to release, even by Take2 and bankrupted Sensible!
I would very much like to see more games with interesting and unique fantasy settings - like Oddworld or Zeno Clash.

Fever_Discordia: Sequels to [...] Planescape: Torment, Well maybe not featuring the Nameless One as his story has run its course but another D&D game in the 'Planescape' setting, maybe with some of the same guys and gals in your party...
This. I always wondered what happened to Morte, Annah, Fall-From-Grace and everyone else after the events of Torment.

thebum06: I'd like to see another Unreal Tournament game which is more like UT2004 and less like UT3.

Wishbone: +1

I very much doubt it'll ever happen though.
There is this.

As well as...

DOOM 4 (Confirmed by id)
Quake 5 (They discussed the idea at the last QuakeCon)
ROTT 2 (Somewhat confirmed by Scott Miller)
Blood 3 (Will never fucking happen)
Jazz Jackrabbit 3 (Possible but super unlikely)
Commander Keen 7 (See above)
A new Dune RTS (I'd like to think this was easily possible)
A new proper C&C RTS (Looks like they are making Generals 2)
Carmageddon 4 (I think this was confirmed)
A proper Syndicate 3 (Totally possible)
A proper new X-Com (Sounds like Firaxis saved the day)
Dungeon Keeper 3 (This should be easily possible)

Yeah, there is a lot more too.

HeDanny: Remake of Wizball.
Hey, another Wizball fan :-D

You do know there are already a couple of different remakes of it, right? Still, no version I've tried beats the original C64 version.
avatar
Fuzzyfireball: Dungeon Keeper 3 (This should be easily possible)
This. A thousand times this!

Also, I'd love to see a new game in the style of Giants: Citizen Kabuto. It doesn't have to be a sequel, just the same kind of genre bending and sweet "laugh-so-hard-that-you-throw-up" humor.

Another adventure game in the style of Sanitarium would be welcome too.

And of course, a Star Control 3 (because no such game was EVER made, understood?), made by Toys4Bob would be most welcome.

You know SC3 was not that bad of a game. It was just an unworthy sequel. Just don't think of it as Star control 3. If you think of it as a knock off clone as oppose to a true squeal it becomes palatable. (It was not so bad for me because I played SC3 before I played Star control 2). But I totally agree that a true Star control 3 by Toys4Bob would be an amazing thing.
I want a neverwinter nights 3 in the same style as Neverwinter Nights 2 with less bugs (-.-*) and more story told from the neverwinter nights :3.

Would something like this do?

Once I worked on a game, that I abandoned (years ago)... it was a cemetary tycoon game... you need to design and maintain your cemetary. You have too look after your money (because of that, you are able to build "hot dog sellers", "restaurants", "flower shops", ...). You were also able to kill people if you are struggling with getting new "clients" :)

I think I should pick that up again *gg*

That sounds an awful lot like Mr. Jones' Graveyard Shift.

no, mine was much better than that... and my idea is already about 10 years old ;)
