Well from what it looks like. It seems a lot of people think that they would make it but then I have to wonder is it the process that stops many "good" games from being made or are some people just to lazy to get it done or at least try?

I only have the story and some basic concept but I highly doubt it'll get made into anything. Unless I start blackmailling someone at Nintendo.

I fantasize about making my own games every other night. I love creating video games in my head. I think them down to the point of what would I put in the Legendary edition.

I have met developers and never have they accepted viewer content. It is sad and Just do it for fun. It is highly unlikely that you will make it any farther than every other dreamer.

I have some ideas that I think would be great, but the thing about the game industry is that there's a high barrier of entry. This is something that I hope will change within the next few years, because theres some great ideas out there.

Really, games are the only entertainment industry where amateurs can't turn their ideas into reality, or at least not in the way that they would like to. I mean, with music, you get an idea, and you can record it. You need some equipment, but pretty much any teenager with an instrument can make a song. Same with video; anyone with any kind of camera can make a movie if they feel like it.

With games, though, you need a knowledge of complex coding and animation techniques, and its enough to drive some people away. It's unfortunate because there are some great ideas out there.

I think MORE THAN one of mine could make it. If you idiots ate up Doom 3 and Oblivion, then probably any of my ideas could make it, as long as I had a team of sorry sacks working their ass off churning away generic high-poly bump-mapped content.

I can eventually come up with decent ideas (to me) for sequels and the like but unique games will usually just be clones of something else or a combination of elements from other games that I think could work.

They would be unlikely to get into the market because even if they did the publishers would bastardise it and eventually turn it into Medal of Honour: Auschwitz Karting Rally instead.

I've always thought of different types of games that give you alot of choice, but some of them just seem to come out as murder simulators and the idea would be put down before someone could even try and make it. :S

Well, I have a few ideas, but most of them have been done before.
