Original post by NickHighIQ Wrong. I may not be able to back this statement up as I did not invent the term, but then what is the difference between an 'unorganized serial killer' and a mass-murderer? Why do you think there are two different terms. Anyway, you're way off topic NiCode.

I'm wrong? well thats the most hilarious thing I've heard all day! LOL!
Do you have even the slightest clue what the difference is, between proper education and the lack of research when making/developing/publishing some movies/books/video games?

Btw.. If you think I got something against video games... I don't.. I just dislike poor minded,self-centered people who don't give a shit about the facts, but hey! what do you expect from someone who makes up a plot/story using other terms(ex:serial killer) and doesn't understand what he said in his recent statement/argument/discussion/post!

A "UNORGANIZED SERIAL KILLER" shows the same acts and has the very same meaning of a "MASS-MURDERER".

Original post by NickHighIQbut has anybody figured out yet that this would not be a serial killer game?

When you are talking about a person who is purposely going to kill 2-30 people in a nonstop killing spree! you are describing a "MASS-MURDERER" which is a "UNORGANIZED SERIAL KILLER" that is a much simpler way for others to understand the 2 categories that Define a serial killer...
Serial killer:
1.organized serial killer
2.unorganized serial killer

I am not off topic. This is what I said and explained the reason why this topic is mislead and off course, therefor the person who made this topic(based on a idea/thought) didn't put as much thought in doing some simple/very easy research on the idea that was presented to him. After you think of something... people actually do some research that can better explain the realism of what they thought about...

In order for you(millatime) to make a game based on a serial killer..
you must study the mentality and physicality for a better understanding of what a "TRUE Serial Killer" is. I gotta go. Have a nice day everyone. Bye.

Want to know more about serial killers? here is a good place to start http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Serial_killer

After some thought and research. How about a slight change of game focus?

A serial killer fighting game. Who is the better serial killer, Ed Gein or Jeffery Dahlmar? Imagine a death match type FPS. Each player picks a serial killer (each with a unique style and weapon) before joining in the game. There are lots of NPC population running about, and players can get points for takeing them out. But the real goal is takeing out another serial killer. But be careful the NPC cops are hunting you down too.

Think of it as a Twisted Metal crossed with GTA ;)

Dude, that sounds really kickass! :P

The only game I can think of like that is Postal. I personally played it because it's just nice to go around and kill people for the hell of it. Nowadays, people want more out of their game. Sure back then mindless killing was acceptable and fun but in these times of Jack Thompson, we can't get away with much.

Still if it was done right I still wouldn't play it. There would need to be a backing towards the violence and a great story that actually gives me a motive in killing the people. Just simply saying your a serial killer, go kill, won't do it for me.

ya, I hear ya dude, there should be a good motive and some snappy, attention gripping,hardcore,intensive,nerve shocking plot! make the story very interesting, thus the characteristics of the serial killer should be organized.
Should The serial killer have a time limit set?

There should be a meter. like the kind of meters on TC:streets of New York or GTA, so that way, there is a fear of being arrested or gunned down, just like some serial killers, when the heat hits sky high, the cops will pull out their guns, trying to hunt you down and kill you, thus learning how to be careful,prepared,and aware.

The best part should allow you to grab your victims off the street or in their homes, then you could pick the lock on their cars or any vehicles and pick up the victim, thus throwing them into the trunk and then you can drive anywhere you want(example: abandoned house,building,lot, etc...

You must be new here, so how about me giving you a little tip eh? THIS THREAD IS ABOUT WRITING & DISCUSSING ABOUT A SERIAL KILLER GAME! NOT SOME GAME THAT ALREADY EXISTS!(though people bring up those games called GTA and Postal, which IMO, helps move things along and try something different, thats what I think...) btw, wtf is up with the advertisement?! is this 1 of your online games you created or w.e?

It would have to be in good taste. (i.e. not "Super Columbine Massacre") otherwise I would not play it. I have difficulty sympathising with some of the anti-hero / protagonist-villians in games such as Postal and GTA.
