Yeah, it's this thing I do.

Also, I'm a little weirded out trying to think of what "Crap Your Ants" would actually entail.

My pitch for "30 Minutes to Masturbate!" was rejected. No one ever let me get to what the gaol of the game is.

Also: Outsourcing Manager 2004 edition.
The goal would have been to find the cheapest country to outsource all the jobs in company X withing T time for increasingly demanding companies. Bonus points for outsourcing to a country that outsourcing to causes huge complications! (Like when a company I'm not at liberty to name outsourced to Costa Rico, sponsored by the US Navy, and the Navy was itchy about giving away secrets to foreign countries.) The only real problem with the game: who's going to make it?

Were you doing a graphic performance to illustrate at the same time? Maybe you would've needed one...

YES I DID have one! I brought tons of porn and everything! They said a fucking teen rating would equal more sales and I said "Then, maybe the game would be better as 'EXTEME BOTTLE SHACKER'" and they said that had even LESS apeal.

I was gonna come in here to talk about a lawn-mowing simulator, but Lawn Zapper did it in the 80s.

I think a homeless RPG would be awesome.

You know, that actually would be a good idea. A lot of people have a really skewed perspective of what homelessness is like, I think.

At least it might shut up all the 'why don't they just get jobs?' people.

Yeah, this would could be a great game. I was actually homeless for a while. However, I don't know how much of a kick the player would get out of "keep yourself warm while sleeping under a bridge mini-game". But seriously, I think there is a need out there for these kind of "politically correct" edutainment games. There are a lot of games dealing with politics and such but it seems games that illustrate social issues are far and few in between.

Actually, what usually shuts them up for me is when I politely inform them that "I'M NINETEEN YEARS OLD, HAVE VERY GOOD REFERENCES, AND A FEW GOOD SKILLS, AND NOT EVEN I CAN GET A FUCKING JOB. How would you expect someone with none of those to?"

There is that game, its kinda an Rpg lite. Its sorta interesting, but I think they could've taken the idea further.

A desktop game where it replaces your background with a very old map of the US. It changes some settings so that new items on the desktop are added towards the west, in order of where places were settled. As the desktop becomes more cluttered, the Native American tribes try to find places to live until your desktop is so full that they just die.

And the exciting part is that the more icons you place on the screen, the more update the map is!

Black Death, the game. Play as that lovable pandemic that eradicated 1/3 the population of Europe. Jump from host to host until every quaint village and town is reduced to fly strewn Necropolis. Dodge priests and inquisitors as they try to expel your "demon" taint. Do you have what it takes to bring about the apocalypse?

Well, it doesn't quite go into the detail you suggest, but I thought this was pretty cool.

A ultra micro management RPG. It has the typical ATB-clone attack system, except every move, you can decide to: use a spell, attack (heavy, light, medium), defend, use an item, combine items, hand over items, do a combo with another team mate, cry in the corner, take a more aggressive stance, take a more defensive stance, take a more indecisive stance, side step, step forward/backward, pick up a rock, throw a rock (only after picking one up), stare at enemy, stare at friend, walk dog, feed fish, unsheathe sword, unsheathe OTHER sword, switch to AKUJOMO mode, look up (only when in AWARENESS +1 mode), get naked, run (only while naked), overdress (penalty for overdressing in warm weather), whimper, laugh (only while in DENIAL mode), chew veramine root (WARNING: won't cure insomnia), or finally, detach limb and throw at enemy. Game over if you are forced to throw your head, but not if this manages to win the battle, but only under the circumstances that at least one of your team mate is alive to eat your head, thus gaining him the head whilst losing his (but it's not like he knew what would happen).

Space Snakes on a Spaceship.

Why not "Space Snakes on a SpacePlane"? The movie was supposed to be awesome for how fucking stupid it was (except for the fact they fired the director who knew how to make it happen so it failed). So, no matter how stupid the game would be, it would be better for it. Just, don't fire the original director, this time.
