I recently started watching Chowder on Cartoon Network, which I thought would be stupid, but turned out to be pretty funny. That might make a good game, even though I'm pretty sure some people would object.
I would have loved an episodic game series of Discworld. They could use Ankh Morpork as the hub for each episode, and then have the story start from there with all the characters that the Discworld contains. I'd prefer not to have Rincewind as the protagonist, mostly due to him having 2 full length games already. Maybe they could even switch the characters around every episode?
Discworld has different main characters for every book, though, right? And how could the main story tie together if there's a different character in each one?
(Don't pay too much attention to this, I don't know much about Discworld)
A: A subsequent series is always a possibility but relies on several other factors. It's possible that the crew's adventures could continue in any number of media, not just on television...
Q: Will there be a Red Dwarf computer game?
A: There are plans to produce a Red Dwarf game, and negotiations are taking place.
We are currently examining the possibilities, considering format and design.
The last TV episode ended on a cliffhanger. They want to continue the series. This is not just a show with a cult following. It's a show with a cult following that's interesting in making a video game. In fact, a season/series is 6-8 eps!
Actually, I was just reading the other day, some digital channel over here's commissioned some new Red Dwarf specials, so hopefully something comes of that.

Yeah, they'll probably export it. They're a pretty small channel, this is the only original thing they're producing so far (the rest is just repeats of Top Gear and old Red Dwarf eps), so I'd imagine they'd be pretty eager to sell it as many places as they can.

what dave?, they have the wrc too which is first broadcast by them, they have other programmes too

That is true, but alot of them are situated in Ankh Morpork, which would be the hub. If they make a 5 game season like most of Telltale's licences, then the first one could be about Rincewind, second about Sam Vimes investigating whatever Rincewind was doing, third could have Moist von Lipwig delving into the plot as it thickens, 4th could have Tiffany Aching coming to Ankh Morpork in order to continue her witch studies, and the 5th and last one might use all the previous characters in order to create a resolution for the entire season.
Course, what that story would be about I have no idea
I keep saying it.. The Tick... the owner and creator wants nothing to put this figure back in the spot light and I feel it fits telltales humor. I brought it up in a play test but the average reply was a mumble and grunt.. doh
Or still voting for asterix and obelix adventure.. not platform!
how about another Under a killing moon or such advent using the same engine csi has..
Id prefer the freeroam fps but meh.
discworld was great.. but without eric.. its dead to me.. :P
I want to see a nick bounty game, as ive said before.. not to stroke marks ego and get brown on my nose but it really is all set for episodic nature and its quite funny.
(mark..that email in strong bad baddest of the bands rocked.)
Always been a dream of mine to have SB read my email.. you lucky sod. oops i digress
At least for one product, stop wasting the potential for too flat casual licence games and invent some own IP. As for other licences i already said that for instance Donjon would be a great licence but it seems that Gilbert is heading in a similar direction with DeathSpank.
Now it's not what you would expect your average pokémon game to be like, and I didn't fully develop the plot yet. Everyone likes a good plot twist, so I'm all over that. This is just the plot of my major story. I'll post a link to the full outcome when I'm done.
Here's the plot:
There's a guy named Alexander Onmoi, a military-trained elite pokémon trainer, who plays dirty and strategically. He lives at Sinnoh has four pokémon; a turtwig, a marshtomp, a raichu, and a jigglypuff.
First rime after being invited to Taj Na, an island where only the most elite pokémon trainers go, Alex refuses, thinking it's only another minor tournament. But after being insisted to go to the same place by his girlfriend, Alex demands to learn more. After looking up Taj Na's history, Alex navigates to Taj Na's location and signs up for the tournament, and it's much more than he expected, yet he wins many of the tournaments.
Meanwhile, Saul Dickens, a man at the top of his game at Taj Na, owning a company of biological engineers (and professional gunners for security), attempts to murder Alex after losing to him in a championship, and has guards hold Alex's pokémon out of the poké balls in a truck, to test them in their experiments later. Ironically, it turns out that the jigglypuff is an escaped experiment from a government science lab, and gets out of control when she sees Alex start to bleed. Her anger causes her to grow twice a normal man's size; her skin turns tanner, her ears get all twisted, and the swirl on her forehead hangs down, like when hair gets wet.
In rage, the jigglypuff ravages Saul's gunners and partially destroys the laboratory building, and also opening the lock to the building's quarantine room, a place where the failed experiment pokémon go.
Meanwhile, Alex, unconscious from the beating he took from Saul, is rescued by one of Saul's ex-workers named Cody Pike. Alex wakes up at Cody's garage, and Cody tells him to follow him. Oblivious and confused, Alex decides to follow. Halfway to this unknown destination, Alex asks Cody who he is and where he's taking him. Cody introduces himself and explains that the quarantine zone's lock has been damaged, and he has to find a way to fix the lock before the failed pokémon experiments escape.
Arming both himself and Alex, Cody heads in to the half consumed building to shut the lock. After at least five hours, Alex decides to head in and investigate. After finding dead bodies and mysterious bloody footprints, Alex gets a creeping suspicion that this must have something to do with the "quarantine zone", and that's when things take a turn for the worst.
After finding Cody's body remains thrown up against a wall, Alex decides to go back, but feelings made him move on, but stopped when he came to the quarantine zone, blown open and empty. Then he hears a distorted chikorita's screech, followed by a grotesque mutant pokémon running into view. Then another. And pretty soon Alex is practically cornered by the obscene mutants. Barely escaping, Alex realizes that the whole city is infested with the pokémon.
Meanwhile, Alex's pokémon are fighting their way out with all they can. After plowing their way through the other pokémon, one of the members are wounded, and so begins a dramatic montage with Alex shooting the hideous creatures, and his pokémon doing all they can to defend themselves and their allies.
Alex attempts to call the military, but it fails, and he soon realizes that all telephone lines are defective. Alex tries to get to his car at his hotel and drive to an accessible area with telephone access, but is stopped when he gets on the plane with the quarantined pokémon, and is practically killed.
Miraculously, Alex’s pokémon wander onto a plane near Alex’s, spot Alex on one of the flights, and attempt to rescue him. Alex wakes up, and finds his pokémon, fighting the quarantine pokémon. The fight is driven outside of the plane, and the pace picks up.
Finally, the jigglypuff has had enough with the quarantine pokémon, and gets angered to the point where she grows to the height of the plane.
After all the quarantine pokémon are driven away from the plane and the jigglypuff changes back to normal. Alex finds a biplane and flies back to Sinnoh. He drives to his girlfriend’s house (her name’s Alma Sanor, by the way), gets the nearest telephone, calls the military, and tells them what’s going on.
The rest is pending. Maybe you could give me some ideas. You can also tell me if I didn't explain the story enough.
The game would be a first-person shooter for the Wii where you use the extra buttons (the nunchuck and the 1 and 2 buttons) to control your pokémon, and the B button to shoot your weapon. Waving the remote makes you melee, and the A button switches guns.

And it would be a good idea to make your silly adventure into a game...like choose your own adventure or something. It could be episodic, too.
A Full Motion Video is a game that is prerecorded in live action or using stop motion animation.
