Is anyone a fan of the tv series Sons of Anarchy? It's a great show with drama, action, some dark humor, and a huge cast of well-developed characters. The creator, Kurt Sutter, has been trying to get the ball rolling on a SoA game for a year or so. He wanted Rockstar to do it but apparently that fizzled out. I really think Telltale could have a great spin on SoA.
I don't mean to imply that it would be identical to TWD in terms of gameplay mechanics. But I think the foundation of what Telltale has done with TWD would serve SoA well. An SoA game could maybe have branching storylines, allowing the player to choose with issues and tasks to deal with first. Character relationships would be the heart of the game, like in TWD, with both fellow club members and rival or partner clubs.
It would allow some action sequences as well. Maybe you can choose how to deal with certain situations - go in with guns blazing, or negotiate a compromise. Start a firefight and people trust you less, but at the same time you advance to your goal more quickly.
LOL I'm basically describing a variant on the Rockstar formula, but I'd envision Telltale doing something that's a two parts TWD, one part La Noire, and one part GTA.
I've probably typed too much, but I really, really believe Telltale and Sons of Anarchy would be a match made in heaven.
I was too lazy to read the whole thread, so sorry if they've been mentioned already, but I would love to see a Scooby Doo adventure game. Exploring locations for clues, running from monsters... it would be perfect.
Also, I really want a "murder night" at the inventory. Like that PAX thing I heard about but an actual game.

There actually was a Scooby-Doo adventure game. It was called Scooby-Doo Mystery (the Mega Drive/Genesis one), which was a point-and-click adventure in the style of the classic LucasArts SCUMM games.

A Shenmue Game that revolves around Tom the American hotdog seller.
How'd he learn Japanese?
Why is he in Japan?
Why does he know of the tornado kick!?
How did he get from Dobuita to New Yokosuka Harbor before Ryo when Ryo left before he did?
Okay, not exactly a Telltale game per se, but they should strike a deal with Zen Studios to let them make a pinball table based on Theodore Dudebrough.
A point-and-click adventure set in the Mass Effect universe that follows Tali'zorah as she sets off on her Pilgrimage up until she first meets Shepard at the Citadel.
I don't know who they would have to talk to to get rights (Fox probably), but I think that the next big IP they should sink their teeth into should be Firefly. Fox will never put it back on air and it's been said numerous times that both Fillion and Joss Whedon would want to continue the series so why not have Telltale release episodic content with all of the original actors contributing their voices. Is there anybody else out there that thinks this it the best solution to get more of what we love?
Was justing watching JeremyJahns review of Firefly on youtube (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KtXIQu5G2Xg) and at the end he mentioned how he would love Tell Tale to make a game in episodes about the series. My god can you imagine how amazing that would be? It would be like a dream come true!

Aw, shoot! I saw this too late, but I have to second all of it. This would be the best.
OK. I'll bite. Tell me WHY Telltale should make a Rupert game.
...and do it in rhyme.
(See, I know what Rupert the Bear is all about)
Hey, fellas, won't you lend me your ears?
I got a story to tell, that you'd like to hear,
about a little white bear, with a colorful scarf,
his name's Rupert, and I cross my heart,
this won't take long,
Something something something something fib-ble flange.
Yeah! Felluhz! East coast is the best coast! I've got more bars than Guatanamo Bay! West side is the best side! Peace out!
All those Telltale Cartoon Games are maybe quite nice,
and i know about plans to start in Star Wars or Fable comic genre,
but in my idea we need more "unique" and "serious" games like the walking dead series....
you are able to touch players, make tem decide seriously, suffer and be glad while playing. that is incredible and unique, just another star wars story game, will be played by the younger ones mostly and just will be straightforward.
Definatly we need season2 of walking dead, no doubt,
But there could be so many other serious games,m most important is the character interaction like in walking dead
You're probably going to come into a lot of people asking for exactly the opposite, actually.
I've nothing against serious games like The Walking Dead, but I, and many others, would quite like Telltale not to forget their roots and what made them great before TWD came along.
Games like Sam & Max and Tales of Monkey Island were wonderfully made and deeply entertaining, but it seems they've moved in a very different direction since then and that makes me a little bit sad. I'd like more games like those over more Walking Dead-style serious games. But oh well.
After seeing the latest Scooby-Doo! Mystery Incorporated episode with the Hex Girls, I am now convinced that a Hex Girls video game would work quite well.
Mystery Incorporated is darker and edgier, more serious, but it still doesn't forget its roots by adding a lot of silliness. However, using the gang itself would probably be a bit too much, and there are a lot of side characters you could work with, like Marcy "Hot Dog Water" Fleach or sheriff Sheriff Bronson Stone, perhaps even the original Mystery Incorporated, but in my opinion the Hex Girls would work extremely well.
The Hex Girls, throughout Scooby-Doo history, have been very popular, both in-universe as well as in real life. They're an eco-goth band, and therefore tour around the world, not just spreading their music but also their message (sometimes). One would imagine they would therefore have enemies, and this being set in the Scooby-Doo universe, it wouldn't be surprising if some actually enacted their revenge.
It would mostly play as a regular crime series, where the Hex Girls, not wanting to wait for the police to find out who has been sabotaging their stage (as they won't stay in each town for more than a week, due to touring schedules), try to figure out who's been trying to kill them before their next gig. It would mostly be a cast of new characters, with perhaps one or two cameos from the Scooby-Doo serial, for example, Red Herring or Flim-Flam. I don't think Mystery Incorporated itself should be featured, as they would overshadow the Hex Girls.
Despite this series being mostly a crime series, though, their entire adventure could have something supernatural to it. They aren't called Hex Girls for nothing.
Using the Hex Girls would also add another layer of Telltale throwback, as it would not just add some more humorous and / or silly stuff in it, but also add the musical sequences that we haven't seen since the second Sam & Max series.
Also, holy crap they're cute when they aren't wearing their stage costumes.

Now while i believe that a Scooby Doo Mystery Incorporated TTG could work due to how well done this series in my opinion because of the character development etc. I don't think the hex girls would work very well. Because i think we only see them like 4 times in the whole Scooby Doo series. We see them in 2 movies (Scooby Doo & The Witches Ghost and Scooby Doo and the legend of the vampire) and from what i remember we see them once in 2 different series. Once in What's new Scooby Doo & Once in Mystery Incorporated. But if it was the actually gang, it could work if it has good jokes and character development. But the problem is that it would have to go for more jokes that is towards 5 year olds etc due to it being Scooby Doo. But the problem would be that and lets all be honest with ourselves that it seems that TTG is going towards more serious games like TWD which in my opinion is a bad bad idea.
Yes with the hints and the leaked TF2 Items and screenshots it looks like Poker Night 2 is coming (With Sam ) but after that there is Fables which seems like a serious series. Then i remember seeing a thread in the TWD fourms that says that TWD Season 2 is coming fall 2013. Which comes to me as a disappointment. After Poker Night 2 it sorta means that the rest of TTG's games will be serious games. We have no idea at all if King's Quest is still even being made or if its been cancelled so we sorta got to assume that most of TTG's upcoming games will be serious games. So with TTG working on serious games it seems extremely unlikely that we will get a comedy game even if it does got good story and character development and good gameplay. Anyway this is just my thoughts
Also, remember that Telltale Games is full of tallented personel. They managed to give Theodore Dudebrough a full backstory, and that guy's only been in one poker game.
Speaking of which, there should be a Dudebrough game.

I'd play that so hard.
They already did that...
In what?
He said something from the mythos thats clearly inspired from the mythos! I'm not limited to using the actual charecter!
Also, I really want a "murder night" at the inventory. Like that PAX thing I heard about but an actual game.
I own this. It's a great game.

But as far as new properties go? A Philip Marlowe game.
Aw, shoot! I saw this too late, but I have to second all of it. This would be the best.
1. Telltale should collaborate with Nimbus Games to do a reboot of Spy Fox aimed at a wider audience
2. Taletale should make a adventure/point and click adventure hybrid based on Rupert (no, not the "Follow the Magic" Rupert)
This Rupert
...and do it in rhyme.
