It it were up to me, I have but a few ideas: Chrono Trigger(SNES/PS/VC) Oh Chrono Trigger, with its multiple endings. If twitch plays this, imagine all the interactions that could take place!! People requesting this, people overriding said requests, and probably sending the characters in circles. It would be never-ending....now that i think about it....that's actually a little scary....a NEVER-ENDING GAME OF CHRONO TRIGGER. PLAYED BY TWITCH.....Shudder South Park: The Stick Of Truth(XB360/PS3/PC) - Same thing applies here as with chrono trigger, but not as drastic...People would be fighting over which class the "New Kid" should be-Mage, fighter, Thief or Jew. At least there will be no fighting over the name of the guy, as it will always be the same thing, a name that I will not repeat here for fear of increasing my warn meter, which has NOT risen a single digit ever since I been here....You know, not to brag or anything like that.... Oh, and not to mention it would be entertaining to see how they level up the "new kid"..... Sonic '06 (XB360) Oh, boy...here we go...I can see it now; the whole of Twitch riffing, commenting on how awfully bad the game is, and tossing in the occasional lament about how the game WOULD'VE BEEN good IF SEGA DIDN'T RUSH IT. It'll never end. Any of the many, many Final Fantasy Titles (NES-Present) Ok, I'll admit, there's a LOT left to the imagination on these titles...I'll leave it up to you to imagine. But yeah, those are my picks. Now, it's you guys' turn-What kind of game(s) would you like Twitch to play? Suggest and speculate away!!! 0=Kunai=>

Both because of a lack of emulation method and action games just won't work under these conditions. Plus it's hard enough to play normally with all the shoddy programming. Not sure if Stick of Truth has a PC version, but similar reasons. No ideas here. Actually wanting more of Twitch Plays is not a thing that I'll ever do.

SoT DOES have a Pc version. But hey, can't blame a guy for trying, right? Plus this is all just a big WHAT IF. Not a real thing here. Plus, even though you don't have any ideas, thanks for replying Ludi.

Now that would be amusing to watch and see how many people freak out when we finally make it to Giygas. xD

I can see everyone in the audience just screaming/saying "WTF AM I WATCHING NOW?" and a whole buncha other things. Oh, got another suggestion-Retro City Rampage. The thought of many people playing this has SO many opportunities for interaction. That, or any of the GTA games out right now.

Several hours of Niko Bellic flailing around in circles as he hops, punches and occasionally shoots if he somehow acquired a gun. Nope. Honestly the only styles of game this has a chance of working in are top down RPGs and anything menu driven. I get the feeling the minute you move into three dimensions it's just too difficult to coordinate. Really, the more buttons a game has the more difficult it'll become to play. Gameboy games are easy enough since it's 4 buttons and a D-pad.

Perfectionist Posts: 3,036 Group: E Rank Legend Member #9,478 Joined: November 2, 2008 Gender: Male 3DS Friend Code: 1504-6189-5960	Yeah basically what Ludi said. Pokemon works well and are more limited and menu driven. They are already several Twitch copycats who are failing miserably. For example, one tried to do Final Fantasy VII but seeing the game begins with a timed mission and you need to talk to an NPC in the middle of it, it quickly died off. GTA would not work because missions could get too complicated. Earthbound can work. There may already be another copycat stream doing that already. Granted Pokemon is entertaining me at the moment but Crystal is definitely burning me out. I don't want to see more Twitch Plays once Crystal is done.

Good vibes. Posts: 7,965 Group: A Rank Legend Member #11,988 Joined: April 10, 2011 Gender: Male Country: United States of America	Yeah, I feel that only top-down turn-based RPGs would work with the twitch-plays format. So, Final Fantasy 1-6, Dragon Quest, that sort of thing.

But I can only watch it in small doses before it kills my soul a little.

I think something like Professor Layton or Phoenix Wright could work here. There's not much too complex about the gameplay, save for a few minor details.

I don't want to see more Twitch Plays once Crystal is done. Twitch Plays is basically something you can watch once and then just wait for the recaps on. It mostly only has entertaining moments while you can skip the rest of the floundering around. It's only a matter of time before Crystal spawns its own memes anyway.

I can't see them successfully performing investigations let alone presenting evidence. Might work with a smaller group, but with the popularity Red had? Not a chance. Instant Guilty verdicts for everyone.

Even if you disagree with me or any other ideas. Keep in mind this is just a big "What If" type of thing. I know that as popular as this is, there will never be another thing like this. I get that.

[Outrealm Vagabond] Posts: 4,994 Group: C Rank Legend Member #11,272 Joined: July 25, 2010	While I personally have little interest in Twitch Plays, I do feel like someone should act as the voice of reason in here when certain suggestions are made. Gives me something to do when nothing else is happening. I'm personally of the opinion that the less popular a Twitch Plays stream is, the easier progress can be made. I'll never understand the people who want to never make progress.

Gameboy games are easy enough since it's 4 buttons and a D-pad. Final Fantasys up until 6 are good suggestions, Chrono Trigger is a pretty decent suggestion (although I'd argue that the more complex menus would be a hinderance), Earthbound might work. I'd say Fire Emblem had a decent chance, but I can imagine it all going horribly wrong. Anything requiring fast reflexes is out. Input lag won't allow it. Fighters can work when programmed right. Twitch Plays Street Fighter II seemed to work okay.
