Passed to me by a mole at GameSpy HQ, it turns out that yesterday’s “Imagining of Diablo III as a first person perspective game” is just the first in a series that the site is planning.
Going forward we can look forward to imagining:
- Civilization V as a side-scrolling platformer
- EVE Online as an isometric click fest
- Pokemon played from Pikachu’s perspective
- Quake as a collectible card game
- Frogger as a play by mail game
- Heart’s of Iron III as a series of Twitter posts
- Starsiege: Tribes as a 1930s serial radio drama
- Star Wars Galaxies in a universe where Anakin Skywalker died at birth. (Wait, we’ll be getting that after December.)
- MUD1 as a graphic novel
- Super Mario Galaxy if David Mamet had written the script (Stars are for closers!)
The list appears to be only the first of several pages. Has anybody picked up on any other titles they might be working on?
