Beat Games

1. The cop you were assigned to follow was slain by the Mafia. Now you must avenge his death. Take up his weapons and gear and prepare for a full assault on the Mafia. There will be blood this day. And you could consider providing live coverage of this fire-fight if you like multi-tasking.

2. Write the most interesting stories and get the greatest pictures. You work on commission for now, but hope to move up. The better your material, the faster you'll get moved up and the more money you'll make. ...You may want to consider creating some situations for stories...

3. Getting to know the routines of cops.. use this knowledge for your own benefit. When not working, use your knowledge of the police paths and response time to rob places blind when the cops are across town or otherwise preoccupied.

4. There is a dire situation.. Backup is 10 minutes away. The cop you've been following throws you a shotgun and a bullet proof vest. Now the fun begins. Help your new partner and stopping the largest drug cartel and gun running gang in Oklahoma. Or maybe a more interesting place.
Use your reporting abilities to help (mainly blinding foes with your giant camera's flash)
-First to third person shooter on the consoles and PC. Up to 2 players, with the second playing the cop.

5. You've gotten to know Steve pretty well (that's the cop you've been following). Well, he hates to do this, but something has come up. He must leave town for a month. He has asked that you take his place.. He doesn't want anyone to know he's gone and you two kind of look alike. Whatdaya say? Will you help ol' Steve out? (If you said no, don't buy the game..) He has left you several of his uniforms and the keys to his apartment and car. You had to get to know him, now do something useful. You will have to fool all the other cops into thinking you're actually him and carry on with his duties as well as your own

great analysis of the pvp and pve situation in your game - stuff I hadn't thought of that some characters are for pvp only and can't do/aren't good for doing pve - thanks
10 points

reporter game ideas kind of all turned into cop game ideas - that's weird(g) - 10 points - i did like the one that you can multitask and cover the crime and the suggestion that you use your reporter skills to find out when the cops are elsewhere to do your own crimes - that one could be interesting
