[QUOTE="RangerWickett, post: 5434126, member: 63"] Last night some friends and I realized we all wished we had learned how to program, because we had a completely original idea for a video game so awesome that everyone would buy it and make it all rich. Since we're too lazy to do the work, though, maybe some of you could get cracking at it. You know the Kinect? What it needs is a magic duel game. You'd cast spells with different gestures, and some basic spells would work like different sports. Fireball? Draw back your arm and hurl it through the air like an American football. Lightning bolt? Throw up one hand like you're tossing up a tennis ball, then swing your other arm to hurl the bolt like you're serving the ball. Magic missile? Ultimate frisbee. Or riff on Street Fighter. If you crouch, then step forward and stand up while punching, you'll fire a bolt of energy. Now all the Kinect needs is some way to move around on your own, instead of standing still or moving on rails. So please, somebody make that game. I want to play it. I'll buy it from you. Anybody else have genius ideas that just require too much work? [/QUOTE]
