What if Doc and Marty go to 2010!?
What if in one of the episodes the duo go to the year 2010 and everything is exactly how it is. now your probably thinking "But 2015 is just 5 years away from now and I don't see us having Jaws 3D...(okay maybe we might...) or hover converted cars and skateboards. and it won't fit in the current back to the future timeline.
but 2010 can be an alternate timeline of the events of Back to The Future Part 2. It would be a nice easter egg of sorts.

I remember reading a comment on a Soulja Boy (don't ask why, I got tricked by a friend) video on YouTube that said "What in the hell has happened to music?!"
Somehow, I could hear Marty saying that about a majority of the music on the airwaves today. O'lawd.
"You gotta use the controller? That's like a baby's toy!
Ill stick with my idea of the 1930s, Rosevelt era, Third Reich and so on, when things were closely monitored, one wrong move and your in trouble and not only the stereotype of the era could be used but actual history too.
"The way I see it, if one is to make a video game about Time Travel, why not do it with some style?"
Nono, Lets make it more believable..
"Made in the United Confederate of America"
Tho.. "Made in USA" would be just as unrealistic I guess in a BTTF universe
"Wait Doc...are you telling me that American flags...are made in China?!"
It annoys me when people say that. Saying "your future isn't written yet" makes no sense when one can actually travel into the future to see what happens.
...and don't give me the projected-future theory either, because if travelling into the future meant visiting a place that wouldn't exist in the end, then there would be no reason for Doc to recruit Marty to save his kids.
Doc was only saying what he said at the end of 3 as words of encouragement. That doesn't make it scientific fact.
He wanted to know if the future was fixed or not.
As it turned out, it wasn't.
So it wasn't just encouragement...it is an observed fact that the future isn't written yet.
Unfortunately if you travel into the past, the present becomes unwritten too.
Which can lead to all kinds of trouble.
Because in the past the present is the future. So you always change the future depending on where you are, when you are and what you're doing
The note erased because he wasn't fired or simply because no one uses fax machines in the new future (like now). Probably the future just changed instead of not being written yet, because every year is a future to some year. 1985 is 1955's future, right? And it was written...
But it's probably not exactly the same as it was in Part II anymore, since Marty didn't hit the Rolles Royce and young Biff found that magazine and then got it taken by Marty.
There's the postman who met a guy that Doc predicted would be there at that exact minute 70 years later. Could have screwwed with his mind, maybe he went postal.
I'd say it's possible that somehow these things affected the future, but maybe in the course of the game more could be done to make the future more like now.
Actually, I'd say there was no reason for Doc to get Marty to save his kids.... Doc's just not all there sometimes.
Time travel is VERY confusing...
Actually Doc ruined Martys kids. With all that time traveling, then making Marty think about that "Chicken" thing. Marty never got into the wreck, so now that Martys self esteem isnt shot, who knows if he stays with Jennifer and has those kids. =p
Cellphones didn't exist in 1985, only pagers and car phones. In Star Trek 4, Kirk gets a call on his communicator, and the woman who he is with thinks he has a pager and asks if he's a doctor... until he talks to Scotty on it which confuses the heck out of her.
Personal computers aren't just smaller, they're also a WHOLE CRAP TON FASTER and and can hold a LOT more data.
Video Games. The 8-bit Nintendo Entertainment System was only just released to the US in 1985. Need I say more? Think of showing someone who has only seen graphics as good as Super Mario Bros. that you could play games that look as good as Call of Duty 4 live from the US with someone who is in Australia. In fact, game consoles are now so prolific and advanced that video arcades are all but dead.
The Internet. ah, the internet. Information can be spread so easily and so quickly nowadays it's ridiculous. And the internet is everywhere, we get access to it on our PCs, cellphones, video game consoles, ebook readers, cars... I mean, really. It's everywhere. And if you have a question about something, most anyone would tell you to just Google it to find out.
I never thought it was an experiment, but now that you mention it... He had a pretty solid plan, getting him futuristic clothing, intercepting his son and all.
But being the scientist that he his, he probably knew that just by bringing them into the future would mean a future where Biff saw them being kidnapped by that crazy old wacko with the flying car !
So, I guess you're right... Deep down, he probably just wanted to experiment with the delays/effectiveness of Time Ripples... See if he could sneak one up behind the universe's back.
Telling Marty & Jennifer this BS story about saving his children in the future was probably more fun than just going to 1985, warn him and go see if his speech changed anything.
I know I would use my time machine in the name of confusion and disbelief.
@Frankov: who wouldn't use their time machine to confuse people?
You know, I think it would be actually cool if in the game we could add some modifictations to the DeLorean from each time period we visit. Dunno what modifications we could take from 1931, but, hey, something could be taken from there
You know, now that I think about it, I never imagined a ripple effect on digital stuff, tbh.
Like, if a man see that in the future he is a millionaire, that man will not work anymore because he'll know that he'll get rich anyway, but turns out by doing this, he changed the future.
