I can answer what's the best idea ever: Hot Coffee. And in that, I mean going out and getting a cup of Duncan Donuts coffee and forgetting I read this.

I answer... Zero socks.

Prophet Mohammed In A Tony Hawk Game -- definite no-no.

 

Hot Coffee -- keep far out of reach of children!

 

Edutainment -- can be done right if game designers and programmers are interested.

 

Anything Not Rated M -- you have a problem with any game not rated M?

 

PS4 -- assuming we're talking about the PlayStation 4: we haven't yet even seen the PS3 come out, so that's a non-issue for now.

 

FlexDiscs -- haven't seen, heard, or used them, so I can't comment.

[chrisbid]

um, none of the above

 

my ultimate no-no

 

ingame advertising and additional gaming fees

Okay, who voted for the M thing? I can't believe someone actually did.

Where's other: I second with ads in games.

 

Prophet Mohammed In A Tony Hawk Game- don't want to offend the muslims, but I think is more of a middle East no-no, not a world issue. If he is character then that you play as then its is not bad although no sense for him being the game a first place.

 

Hot Coffee - parents job to keep off this off the kids hands

 

Edutainment -if done right

 

Anything Not Rated M-Who think this is a no-no shows what is wrong with today's gamers. Not every games needs to have women parts bigger then normal without some body work because sex sells. If every game is rated m in the entire industry would have decrease in sales. Parents want their kids to do something and if a 9 year old like 2600 games want a modern system the child can't. It would prevent people with with bad hand to eye cordination to play video games at young age if every was rated M. That means people like me would have even worse cordination without play games before before being around 17. I think the world doesn't want a lot of people as kids with hand cordination so bad that they can't hold a folk right. Kids still could play them off their 14 or 15 if a parent knows their kid well.

 

PS4- It your talking sony's next system after 3, then this is not an issue.

Here's another no-no I can think of: crazy thirteen-year-olds trolling classic gaming forums with game ideas, showing no initiative and no desire to do any of the work themselves, ignoring serious attempts at telling them where to start, inventing imaginary company names and release dates before writing a single line of code, and then rambling incoherently about Thomas Edison, grades, and getting drunk on molasses!

Go away! Please!

That reminds me of another no-no: Anyone who under 16 and only plays rated M games to be cool only. That means all 13 year olds.

 

Also those putting a game on Wikipedia without trying to do it yourself or finished as a game. see http://www.atariage.com/forums/index.php?s...dpost&p=1021918 as poof.

I tried to add to the Break Invaders Wikipedia. My addition was speedily deleted. Apparently I wasn't adding anything by writing that "critics have praised this game as the least existent game of all time". I'm a critic, and I praised it as that, so it wasn't like I was lying.

It's a conspiracy, I tell you!

 

Actually, somebody at Wikipedia must have been paying attention, because that initial "Break Invaders" entry was deleted very soon after it was created. I just wish someone had done the same with 2600khz's AtariAge user account.

Damn... so I guess my MMORPG for the Gizmondo is out of the question?

That was a heck of a lot more amusing than the guy's OTHER threads.
