I got looking at the reviews forums earlier today and saw two game reviews right on top of each other, Company of heroes, and Guitar Hero. I mused over why so many games had to use the word "hero" in their title. Then it struck me; this might be a fun forum game.

So here's how it works. Put on your thinking cap. Mix two games with similar words in their titles and make a new concept based on that new premise. I know all you creative people will do way better than my first attempt.

Company of Guitar Heroes: A "highly realistic" RTS set in the 1980s where your elite squad of rock gods try to protect western hair metal sensibilities from the looming threat of fascist synthpop. Includes a "playable" machine gun with six color-coded buttons and a twelve hour long solo from Wagner's "Die Valkyrie."

EDIT: New rule, if it's not that obvious please put the names of the two games you cannibalized.

Supreme Marvel: Ultimate Forged Alliance - Basically a swirl of pretty colours like REZ HD but with multiplayer.
Not very good i know but the word alliance got stuck in my head and i couldn't think of much else. A shed load of games have alliance in the title though.
(That's Supreme commander forged Alliance and Marvel Ultimate Alliance)
