Please remember that the ultimate problem with Robo (Well classic Robo) is that its going to be really hard to make a game based around a guy who is impervious to bullets.

1) Ubisoft
Why? - Looking at Tom Clancy's GRAW series, they have the basic engine to do a good Robocop feeling game. Plus a lot of their games have heart (Assassin's Creed, Beyond Good and Evil) and yes while they do milk the franchises to death their games have never really been offensively bad.

2) Epic Games
Why? - Lets face it, a Modern Robocop game would be made with the Unreal Engine 3 anyway. And remember that they aren't only the Gears guys they also have People Can Fly (Bulletstorm and Painkiller)

3) Gearbox
Why? - I'm not a huge Borderlands fan. BUT Look at Aliens Coloniel Marines and tell me thats not what you would imagine a good Aliens game would look like? If they put that much love into a Robocop game I would actually play Borderlands.

4) Valve
Why? - Its fucking Valve. VALVE. Half Life, Portal, Left 4 Dead. Play those games. Then tell me why not. The atmosphere and script would be excellent.

5) Activision/EA(DICE)
Why? - Even though everyone hates them They both have great tech and proven FPS franchise power behind them. CoD and Battlefield. Plus I gotta believe that if they wanted an Activision Robocop game would be great because of the cinematics and soundtrack. An EA one would be slightly worse if only because MoH: Warfighter (Hahahaha) is a giant pile of wank.

6) 343i/Bungie
Why? - The masters of Halo. 343i have taken on the torch from Bungie and produced an excellent single player exepierence and Bungie's Halo games single player genuinely improved with each game.

7) Indie Devs.
Why? - Seriously. The UDK is free and I believe Havok is now free. The only problem is time and people's lives.

8) Edios/Square Enix
Why? - Deus Ex. It has a Robocop easter egg. Job Done.

9) Sega.
Why? - Because I love Sega. And to be fair they commissioned Aliens Coloniel Marines.

10) Rebellion
Why? - You never know they might end up making a good game again that isn't another AVP reboot.

11) Capcom.
Why? - Because it might get them to stop fucking making Lost Planet Sequels no one wanted.

12) Konami
Why? - Because it would be fucking hilarious to see Hideo Kojima develop a Robocop game.

13) Tecmo Koei/Namco Bandai
Why? - Tits and fighting. This is what these two companies do.

Edit:
These guys much higher in the list actually - Rocksteady Studios. Although owned by WB these guys made the Batman: Arkham series and the rather quite nice Urban Chaos on the PS2. Not the GTA 3 before GTA 3. There was a FPS.

Rockstar/Take 2.
Again much higher. Bioshock series, Red Dead and GTA. Some of the most brilliant games ever.

I agree. What an extremely dumb statement. Anything further they have to say is rendered pointless as they clearly have no knowledge of the movie or the character.

I'd say Rocksteady Games who made Batman Arkham Asylum and Arkham City.

Although the character and world were already established they made a licensed game that didn't suck more than a two mouthed hooker.

'Emotional depth of a ceramic plate'. Bah, sounds like someone who only ever saw R3 again. :roll:

Anyway, this was an interesting read, if perhaps a bit old. I agree wholeheartedly with MC about a third-person setup.

Rockstar would be nice, though that's expected, and perhaps a slightly overrated choice. Valve and Ubisoft are good picks too. I wouldn't mind seeing what Valve could do with it particularly.

I wouldn't mind playing another first person shooter, I just wish they made a decent version of it instead of the Titus game...and it better not have those goddamn Call of Duty mechanics, I'm getting real tired of those games. They're so overrated.

Well, lets see. Robocop would be primarily a sort of shooter game right? Or a free roam game set in open Detroit right? I guess that would be preferable.

The biggest problem is Robocop speed. He cant really sprint and at best he can have that mild speed boost like when he dodged a truck and Emile rammed it in the toxic waste. So, it would have to be a sort of game where you (player) are truly a walking tank (Robocop). You move slow but you lay waste at both close, medium and long range, thanks to the aiming system and the trusty Auto 9, heck maybe even Cobra canon...

Other big problem would be basic invincibility against common criminals, where only heavily armed criminals with military hardware would be a match for Robo. I am not sure how they should deal with that. I probably wouldnt mind seeing Robocop fall down after a hail of heavy gunfire, but other fans might have to say something against it.

Now, I am really having a tough time thinking of a fitting development studio for such a game.

From Europe I would recommend Techland for a straight up shooter in the vein of Call of Juarez games (I love those)... They would supply the game with an infinite amount of bloody gore with ever bullet hit (it looked great in COJ: Gunslinger), not to mention some black humor and the true thrill of a gunfight.

Also I like the idea of Robocop open world RPG and for that I would like to get CDProjekt from Poland. Imagine an RPG game with Robocop as the central character. Here you can grind your Robo with experience for a better aiming, better weapons, better abilities, harder armor, etc. And then on the streets you decide whom to help first... You get a few reports on diffrent crimes happening on the varying distances from you current location and you decide priority on them, as well as disarming the perps or simply dispatching them on the spot. Main quest line would be about Murphy trying to hold onto his humanity while city decays around him, eventually culminating in the city wide battle among criminals, police and civilians.

From USA I would vouch for a studio like Volition, becuse of a great work they did with a licensed Punisher game and open world Saints Row games. I am sure they would bring a ton of great dark humor to the project, as well as over the top violence and characters.

I the end I just want to say that a true Robocop game that does justice to the first movie has been my childhood dream and that the very thought of moving down criminals in the drug factory in the Robocop armor with Basil Poledouris theme playing in the background sounds heavenly. Thats all from me!
