I would really like to see more fighting game/beat-em ups. I know they're already very similar, but there's not many beat-em-ups with the depth of street fighter 3. Are you talking about a mixture of a scrolling brawler game and a fighting game? There haven't been many. Way of the Exploding Fist 2. The special bonus Tekken and Bushido Blade game modes. It would be a very cool game... |

Thats it exactly. I know there are a few (spawn from the SNES is another good example), I would just like to see more.

William, I agree. But when it's done right, I always, always love it. Anything Q? touches is a great example. (With the possible exception of Ninety-Nine Nights, which I haven't played...) The key is to integrate both aspects of the game seamlessly to the degree where you don't have to stop what you're doing with one to do the other.

Rez is one of the first games I played for the 6th generation consoles. There won't ever be anything else like it unless Mizuguchi decides to make a sequel or someone finally completes a Rez clone. (I've seen two for the PC, neither ever got past the earliest stages...)

Well, I've heard more-or-less solid rumours that Miz is working on a sequal. And equally legit rumours that he's working on a Wii game, so maybe they're one in the same.
Rez needs head tracking. Nuff said.

You might wanna check out Zeno Clash. It's a first-person brawler with a trippy art design that's coming out in a little bit.
Sounds interesting. What platformer is it coming out on? EDIT: Saw the trailer! HELL YES!!!!!!!! |

Oh, Space Invaders Extreme is a music shooter, in a sense. Killing enemies adds sound effects to the music. Every enemy adds a different sound.

Oh crap. Now this is going to turn into a "games as music" debate.  Yes, any game with sound can be a music game, but is it high music? |

There's a game that was recently released on WiiWare called Bit Trip Beat that is essentially a rhythm game disguised as Pong. I wasn't terribly convinced until I saw the trailer. I'll have to look around for it, though...
Oh, and games are totally music.

Games aren't music, but there are weird psuedo-exceptions to that.
The music in Everyday Shooter is extremely integrated into it's gameplay, to the point where the gameplay is necessary to generate the game's music.

You mean AFFECT, Inanimate, not effect. [/nitpick]
For other genre mashups, I'd like to see more games incorporate the good bits about adventure games. Besides an emphasis on story and plot development, I'd like to see more games with intelligently designed puzzles that lie somewhere between Resident Evil mind numbingly easy and pixel-hunting puzzles from actual adventure games.

Ooooh, touche! I do that to other people, too. I actually just helped a teacher with that, in the middle of class. Pixel hunting ISN'T COOL. |

Not a big pixel-hunting fan, I'm more for those lil' puzzles that use w/e skills or items you have like in the Zelda games.
