10 Perfect Video Game Ideas EVERYONE Is Ignoring

5. A Decent Ninja Game

GTA Jurassic Park
Tecmo

Ninjas are certainly no stranger to video games, having been featured in Ninja Gaiden and Mark of the Ninja. But where Tecmo's Gaiden series went all-in on the action from a third-person perspective, Mark of the Ninja from Klei Entertainment focused on 2D stealth and infiltration.

So why not a game featuring the best of both worlds? Combine the third-person ninja antics of Tenchu with the reactive world of something like Hitman.

As Tenchu doesn't appear to be coming back anytime soon, a savvy developer should drop us into the Sengoku period when ninjas were at their peak. Let us craft our own shinobi, outfit them with cool gear and go crazy.

Instead of a blazing fast action game, let us slip into the role that ninjas most commonly filled - spies, mercs and stealthy assassins.

The mixture of high-stakes stealth mashed together with an intricate story could give ninjas the game they truly deserve.
