Xenomorphs [finally] got a cool game, Jason [finally] got a cool game, the Ghostbusters [finally] got an amazing game.

I want Freddy Kreuger to get a cool game. Before Robert Englund dies. I only care about this if he is the voice actor.
 
The two sequels that THQ had planned for the Warhammer 40,000 Space Marine game. If you haven't played it, do, the main character is awesome, the game does Gears of War cover based, shin high wall shooting and melee far better than Gears of War ever did and the grimdark setting is incredible. Titus does not deserve to have his story left with him as a heretic damnit!
 
An Age of Empires/Mythology take on Game of Thrones.

There would be a story campaign that is akin to the AoE II campaigns, but set in different times and with different factions. For example, the Baratheon campaign would follow Robert's rise, the Valerian campaign would be their conquest of Westeros, the Targaryen would follow the Dance of Dragons, the Learn to Play Campaign would follow The Watch, etc. Like AoE II, there would be a bunch of campaigns composed of a single mission. Since I am wishing, there would also be a conquest campaign like in Dawn of War I or Star Wars: Empire At War. Basically, it's a map of all the locations in GoT.

There would still be random map battles with all the typical game types in AoE & AoM. Single and multiplayer.

Doubt we'd ever see this though. The mods are ok

Tony Hawk's Pro Skater, but with medieval weaponry. Hits/kills increase combos and momentum determines your damage.

About 15 years ago I had an idea for a football game played by superheroes in a fully destructible city. Kind of like "Marvel meets Mutant League".

These two would be awesome. I've always loved the idea of peppering up sports games with weird, over-the-top tomfoolery.

I'd love to see a 2v2 or 3v3 tag fighting game featuring robots that can combine to form bigger ones, with the more intricate combos involving switching which robot forms which part of the gestalt mode for optimised combo extension. I'd probably do it myself if I had the resources or had even some semblance of game making skills.

I also wish more fighting games would use skill based combo breakers like in Killer Instinct instead of it just requiring meter.
 
An Arma III style Star Wars shooter game where you play as the Rebel Alliance on a backwater planet, raiding Imperial convoys and ambushing units of Stormtroopers in the woods.
 
1.
something like superhot and toribash, where you have to do an action scene, but in small chunks, but you're allowed to rewind and redo something over and over if you need to. and the point is to either be flashy as hell, or blazing fast

2. a game where a group of workers are allowed into a big corp. server room to run tests and fix the computers
but there is a spy in the group who has to finish his task before the work day is done. the workers also have to finish their tasks too while keeping an eye out for the spy. and there would be a security guard or two that also has to look for the spy. the don't have to find the spy, but they get a bonus, but they can't arrest the spy, they need the body guard, and the spy can kill if he needs to. but that is risky since that would alert everyone else.
 
something i always thought of A 60's Batman Video Game, they could make it open world/beat em up, and you could stupid side missions where you had to surf against the joker and get rid of the bomb, and everytime you fought enemies it would play that fight music from the show and would make the stupid sounds and comic effecrs when you attack your enemies and it would have all your favorite villians like Penguin, Riddler, Joker, Catwoman, Egghead, King Tut, and the goons that have goon on their shirt, I know it will never happen, especially now
 
A turn-based strategy game where you take on the role of one of several Batman villains. Kinda like this:

Only better, and with at least thrice the villains. I'm thinking something like a KOEI strategy game, with resource management, thug hiring and gangland battles on a grid.
 
Mount & Blade with Kingdom Come: Deliverance's realism and combat system tied together by CK2's ruler politics, dynasty mechanics, and religion mechanics. Something so perfect will never happen though. At most, we'll just get a Kingdom Come spin-off that incorporates some elements from one of the two other games which is already more than enough.
 
I'd like to seen an open world sandbox game where you play as little army men and similar toy figures across a giant diorama, complete with the ability to drive little Matchbox cars, model trains, and RC planes and helicopters, etc.

Sort of like Grand Theft Auto meets Toy Story. Could be based in the now dead Army Men franchise, or better yet, be an entirely original property. Heck, if the budget is big enough, they could even do licensed DLC material with various toy manufacturers and certain brands or franchises.

Hell, if you want a more narrow-focused variant on the concept, why not a Cowboys & Indians game that is essentially a humorous PG version of Red Dead Redemption?

This theoretical Cowboys & Indians game would be to Red Dead Redemption what The Simpsons: Hit & Run was to Grand Theft Auto III.
 
A new Destroy all Humans! game, only way less shitty than Big Willy Unleashed and Path of the Furon.
 
Just a modernized version of DoW1 would be great. The Ultimate 40k mod for Men of War AS2 looks promising, just no base building.
 
Oh where to begin.

- A proper building / management game. Cities: Skylines was okay but too generic and required autistic attention to traffic. Surviving Mars looks like a step in the right direction but seems to be missing something. I'm tempted by Jurassic World Evolution (Theme Park WITH GMO DINOSAURS!) but I'll hold off before buying.
- A space opera RPG with massive exploration and building elements, like a cross between Mass Effect, Star Control, and Civilisation. Storyline could be something along the lines of you are the captain of the only starship to escape the demise of Earth in a horrific thermonuclear war and have to colonise other planets and rebuild humanity, only you're not alone in the universe.
- A pinball machine based on Strictly Come Dancing.
- Brutal Legend 2. Maybe Succoria comes back with the metalcore hordes or something?
- A pointy-clicky adventure game based on Joe Abercrombie's "the First Law."
