I would love a Doctor Who RPG, but only if it's offline. I have never liked MMOGs. Maybe an RPG with optional online play, that would work.

Oooo... How about a game based on "The Hitch-Hikers Guide to the Galaxy", that could be quite a trip if they do it right.

It could be a racing game based on some of all the rubbish challenges they've attempted. So you'd have to select parts for your toyota suv speedboat, cycle thru london as hamster and race thru europe looking for 'the best road in the world' without exceeding speeding limits, or perhaps with options to be let off by paying a good lawyer - like when jeremy got off the hook after going 180 on public road in an alfa romeo - because they couldn't prove he was driving, but merely that alfa had borrowed the car to him ...

plenty of potential. The only worrying part is that neither EA management or targetted platforms like facebook are going to do justice to the games.

"but merely that alfa had borrowed the car to him"
Sorry bout the poor english there! still a bit tired after the weekend.
"but merely that he had borrowed the car from alfa" would've obviously been more correct ...

Like 99.9% games based on Movies or TV shows it will suck and I can bet on this.
