Hmmm... Has anyone seen "House of the dead" film. In this film they have very few weapons for the first 1/2 of the film. Then after that they have tons of weapons. This is LAME idea for a film but in a game it would be really good. As in the thread "Leaving ammo around is lame", imagine your in a mansion and its creepy horror with very limited weaponry with very anoying bad guys, extreem difficult, stripped of everything* that matters, puzzles then (work it into the plot somehow) you come across a stash of kick ass weapons. Now you have the upper hand and revenge is sweet. The game would play on your lust for revenge with LOTS of finishing 1 liners. What used to be a shaky scared man has turned into a killing machine (i love it when films do this). Its simple and stupid but, wow, it would feel gooooood. I was also thinking that the weapons stash could be optional. Say there is girl to save, if you save her you dont get the weapons but if she dies you do. Its a simple twist to implement and i love moral dilemas. Get the girl -> escape, girl dies - rip'em a new one (q heavy metal), perhaps dying in the process. You basically can leave at any time, its up to you how far you want to take it, the deeper you go the harder it gets until you die - this would technically be the end but i think some procedural content system could be worked out to last as long as the player was able to keep fighting. I was thinking if you go back towards the exit the music fades from heavy metal to something else(not sure what) and if you turn around and push forward it switches back to heavy metal. Perhaps it just zooms out and show you fighting endlessly because you are infact in hell (now) and it will never end. Perhaps a cooperative mode (1 plays girl, 1 plays guy). In this mode it is possible to save the girl and get the weapons. Kind of unlockable content. Think of the contrast Other films which do similar stuff - the descent 28 days later the hills have eyes (brilliant) [Edited by - Riviera Kid on December 7, 2006 8:00:52 AM]
